4 seat speed UTV

[LargeOrangeFont]

In super tacky dirt. In 4wd. Foot crushing the brake pedal and gas at the same time… hello..,

It’s ignorant to compare this video to a motor and trans that nobody owns.
Thus RzR had a failure and Polaris has been building forever. Speed will nail it on the first try? Laughable

Polaris is notorious for clutch problems, on every single high performance car they come out with.

And all of you f'd it up for us jeepers.

You should see the whoops and ruts just outside of Primm! They can swallow a VW bug and it would never be seen again!

trophy trucks and 40’s do some real damage!

That was unreal.

@1Carl So let be honest. How long have you been employed by speed? All your post are in this thread except 1.

I’m not employed by anyone, I’m retired. Lol

 

[dirtslinger2]

I heard a rumor that Speed may have lost their Hisun manufacturing deal.

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

I heard a rumor that Speed may have lost their Hisun manufacturing deal.

They are going bankrupt tomorrow, so that makes sense

 

[Lavey5150]

History tends to repeats itself regardless of its purpose

Fake news.

 

[dirtslinger2]

Fake news.

I hope it is, I have a Speed UTV on order.

 

[Santee_Native]

It is give speed a call that’s what I did.

Did they give an update when they are going into production?

 

[Santee_Native]

Did they give an update when they are going into production?

I did not ask that specific question, I’m in no rush for delivery. But they did say that they are looking at possibilities of an additional plant in Arizona.

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

Not yet. Still in the final refinement stage on a number of items.

 

[Boatymcboatface]

The “additional plant” kinda makes it sound like they might not have the hisun thing truly locked down. I’m sure they had a few choice words over the pre production welds (not a big deal it’s pre production) but makes me wonder. As a manufacturer I wouldn’t be taking random calls and saying yeah your pre order is still coming and BTW we’re looking for a new plant because our old deal fell through.

 

[1Carl]

Limited edition lol. 400 nationwide. Must’ve not been selling too well, had to drop number down so they could say it’s sold out to boost sales.

There is only rumors of the Hisun issue, but it wouldn't be a complete shock that a business relationship involving RG fell apart.

Yeah that’s it

 

[Santee_Native]

So it’s bad for a manufacturer to answer the phone and answer questions now?
This is what was said to me.

“Final assembly is still in Texas and we are discussing adding an additional plant in Arizona”

 

[DMF]

It's getting really hard to stay patient these days.

Didn’t say any of it was bad didn’t say they shouldn’t answer questions. What I implied was why would they give you a buyer shitty news that the product you are waiting on just got a even bigger delay? We’re all just guessing at this point. I hoping it all works out the thing looks badass! I bought a RZR because it’s out now if the speed thing works out I’m probably buying one after the 1st couple years.

Or that means Hisun is building an additional plant. Or it means nothing.

Speed is not starting their own mass production facility.

They are doing this different as a manufacturer. How many pre production RZR XP Pro Rs were you allowed to sit in, look at, and criticize? Did you call Polaris to get an update on the release date?

 

[RiverDave]

My fully accessorized speed car is still cheaper than that new RZR.. and I don’t think that RZR will hang with it or be as durable.

I don’t think it’s cheaper

 

[Roaddawg]

I don’t think it’s cheaper

I was a little late to the game and bought my spot from someone. Even with the accessories I chose it's cheaper than the new RZR

 

[WhatExit?]

This one is the one after mine.

After your spot in line?

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

I don’t think it’s cheaper

The launch edition pro R Premium 4 seat RZR is $46k. Non launch edition is $42k.

Speed RG Edition 4 seater is also $42k.

Polaris comes with a stereo, Speed comes with a radio and intercom.

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

After your spot in line?

Same line as the people wanting Polaris Turbo Rs they might get them next spring.

They don’t exist right??

 

[Santee_Native]

As a buyer that was not shitty news to me. Like I previously stated I’m in no rush. Does everyone forget the pro r has been under development for 4 years or more? And if Robby pulls off the speed utv in the same time frame or less as a brand new manufacturer! I’ll be a happy buyer. If he fails well it was like gambling on the chargers! No loss

 

[RiverDave]

I don’t think it’s cheaper

I believe when I was done with everything it was 41k. Unless I read it wrong that RZR is 45k?

 

[RiverDave]

After your spot in line?

Which is no different than new corvettes? And other cars?

 

[RiverDave]

I am not a speed junkie and don’t do the “in Robby we trust” deal.. but I truly believe he’s got a better product all the way around than that new RZR..

That RZR you could crash it and all it would do is improve the looks.. . Thing has a grill that only the designer could love.. and even he’s wondering.


The speed looks like an old Escalade but it’s better than that. As far as all the engineering there is no comparison.

Someone said the electronics are better on the RZR.. having seen the speed in person I disagree. Unless the RZR has a glove box display, both of which are capable of gps, and a hundred other things..

I’ll stick with my current RZR until the speed comes out and never look back.

I’d take my old canned ham over the new RZR.

 

[RVR SWPR]

RD,you totally responsible for Popcorn served with threads all these years.

 

[WhatExit?]

Dave, Corvettes exist

 

[Uncle Dave]

Speed has shiftable 3 speed transmission, standard all models

Its a CVT though right?

Website says - Lo- high and " cruise" (?)

The launch edition pro R Premium 4 seat RZR is $46k. Non launch edition is $42k.

Speed RG Edition 4 seater is also $42k.

Polaris comes with a stereo, Speed comes with a radio and intercom.

Speed also comes with multi fuel engine, roof, custom wrap, powder coated suspension and window nets

The collapsible steering column for safety is a big thing.. nobody else has that

Rack storage does not exist in Havasu...

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

Speed says they are hoping to hit go on assembly line production around the end of the year.

 

[Lavey5150]

Rack storage does not exist in Havasu...

Nor does a Speed car.

Incorrect. They are sitting in the Hastings building

Mine does not exist... but Speed cars exist. Same as everyone that has a Polaris Pro on order.

Not entirely correct......They packed up at least 3 of the 4 (not sure about the black and gold one) and took them back to NC last week for teardown.
But you are correct.....They do exist! I seen Robby (Mr. Gordon if your nasty) himself driving PP3 2 weeks ago right at the corner of Palo Verde & 95 in front of the Hastings building. "I seeened dit' wif my own s"

And for the record, after I seen what Polaris is offering for the same amount or more money....I'll patiently wait 2 more years for a speed! RD said it best a few posts back, "The Pro R would look better after its been crashed" or something like that! Thing is FUGLY!

I think you are correct, all the pre pro stuff is back in NC now. They said their goal is to resolve all the loose ends and start production around the end of the year... we’ll see.

I’m hoping Covid goes away on Monday and the supply chain is back to normal next week.

Did someone say rack storage? Btw those big bees in the background are all 42 MTI’s.. the facility is MASSIVE. Quad and Quint setups everywhere..
