Berts was at $57k for a Pro R NA ultimate when I talked with Ron in early October. By the time you outfit it if you’re able to do the labor yourself it’s gonna be $65k.

Is it worth it? Well the short answer is yes, with out a doubt it’s a badass car. It’s approximately 20% more car than a turbo S when it comes to operation is my take. We have two in our group that showed up early last season, both “launch edition” cars. Both outfitted with 35” tires, bead locks, full comms, lights, switch pro, spare, tools, first aide, windshields and some other stuff. Platform was easy to expand on, and all that stuff is mandatory IMO. Have not weighed cars wet and outfitted, but it’s some weight for sure.

We run out in the desert, I don’t think the NA cars are needed out there to be honest. In the sand I think that’s the way to go, and I’m sure there is an after market turbo kit in the works someplace. No such thing as too much power in the sand. But for hardback desert I’m leaning towards a turbo ultimate pro r at this point. NA car is rad, and will not be taxed loping along in hardback. I’m a little concerned about the extra 500lbs of pro r platform vs. the old S cars, if going turbo power. but I’m not looking to haul ass with the family onboard, just cruise in total comfort is my goal.

I sat bitch in one of the pro r cars last week, we ran about 100 mile loop, it’s a thirsty bitch and we were not even on the pipe. Had to hustle up a few gallons of gas off a friend when we got to slash X just to play it safe. My friend that was driving is a legit road race guy, riding with him isn’t really a normal assessment vs. your average Joe driver like myself. He keeps the car well within its operation envelope, balanced and planted, no where near the ragged edge, very precise in his driving.

These cars eat up the desert, flat out get down and take care of business. I think a lot of people are gonna get really fucked up in these cars if they drive over there head and things go bad, it’s not gonna be good. it’s a big heavy machine and capable of creating a lot of moving energy, directed properly it will be amazing, directed improperly, hopefully these cages are as stout as they appear and wrist restraints or nets are in place.

Agreed. Your assessment is why I like the Turbo R. It is a great Turbo S replacement and excellent all around unit.

Pro R might be only choice right now. Brand new stop ride on the 2021-2023 RZR Pro XP4 and 2022-2023 RZR Turbo R 4.

I think you will score a great deal this summer. Many Turbo-S guys are gonna be upgrading and some people paid 60k+!
I thought that was going to happen this year for us with the Speed car coming out. Obviously the car did not come out and the market did not flood. So when I realized it was not going to happen we just picked up our Can Am. Best of luck to the OP and your plan working out. 👍 I am just getting too old to hold off another year. 🤪🤪🤪🤪

A few things to consider - The Turbo R is only about a car length, maybe 2 slower to 80 than the Pro R. A Turbo R with a light tune is about as fast as the Pro R. The difference between the 2 does not seem to be what the 40HP suggests.

The front ends of both are identical. The interiors are both identical, the shocks are identical, the brakes are identical, the beds/storage are nearly identical, the Pro R has a little more storage space in the bed.

The rear suspensions are the same design, the Pro R just has longer trailing arms. The cars are the same width. Polaris "useable travel" measurement is BS. Both cars have identical ride heights, they will bottom out at the same time.

The Pro R has a longer wheelbase, yes by about 7 inches. It will run probably chop a little better than a Turbo R. The Turbo R will handle and turn quite a bit better, which will be better in Glamis.

Just food for thought. The Turbo R is significantly cheaper and seems more available.
acceleration modes as well. with the longer arms the geometry is different obviously....the weight of the pro r compared to the turbo r makes the hp meaningless really in terms of which goes faster.....

I worded that wrong. I meant people paid $60k for the new pro r.

I decided I’m gonna keep my turbo s over getting a new pro R. I’ve had 2 turbo S and they will take a beating.
turbo s is bad ass. the Pro r just took it to a whole new level of badassery

Buddies that have the Pro R have had a number of SXS’s over the years. He said it’s night and day difference. This is also what other guys that have driven it say as well. They say they car feels much more solid that any other SXS they have driven. Basically, they are looking at buying pro R’s now.

So i have called around a few places here in socal. I also talked to Anderson Powersports in Havasu. To get a RZR Pro R 4 is approximately a 8-9 month wait. They are also marking them up a good chunk. I heard the best thing is to stay outside a 300 mile radius of glamis to buy your car. Any ideas?
Call this guy.. ill dm you his cell they had one sitting in the showroom yesterday..

Hands down the best dealer experience I have ever had.

Agreed. Again just food for thought. The only thing I have against the Pro R is the weight and the belt placement.

Weight is always a tough thing with these. Extra 500lb compared to turbo S certainly makes it feel portly, but that also could be indicative of strength compared to the old cars. My UTV is 400lb heavier than my parents RZR, but it's built like a brick shit house compared to their rzr.

Turbo kits are already in the works from LaRue performance. Their shop car is up to 643whp on the dyno.

We really love the car. Hands-down by far a huge improvement over my X3 and my older 1000 razor. I really love the extra weight gives it a more planted feeling in the choppy stuff. Rather than bouncing all over the place. Thinking we’re doing a Eibach spring replacement once we figure out exactly which spring rate works the best in our terrain.. Other than that the suspension is incredible. Everything about the car is incredible.

I was worried about the mileage and lack of range. 10 miles per gallon is good enough for me. Getting an extra fuel cell as well.

yes that color was not my first choice. But the only one car that dealer in Montana got so I took what he had. And I think it turned out pretty good especially with the red accents.

for what we do it suits our needs very well! Warranty with extended warranty is nice as well.

They may advertise MSRP, but won't advertise their $2k-$4k of fees on top
Yeah unfortunately that’s normal.

But coming from a world where people were paying $20,000 over MSRP and waiting nine months to a year.

Or in some cases ordering a car years ago that they’ve never seen. MSRP plus fees isn’t bad.

wait another year or two until the economy crashes and it’ll be back to where it was.

When we were looking at the PRO R in may/June, the best prices were in Utah. It was just too much money for us after the mark ups and adding accessories.

Our friend works for a company that is developing a supercharger in the pro r and it absolutely is insane in Glamis and it’s not dialed in all the way yet. He says it’s hand down the best sxs out there right now.

Is it ok for someone to say that they don't like the look of the Pro R's....asking for a friend?

I prefer the XP Turbo S rear end to the rear of the Pro R and Turbo R cars. They look like trapezoids from the side profile view.

Do you not like them with the stock cage or just in general

I mean BB's he just posted up above looks great, there is just something about the front view I don't like...looks too "spaceshipy" to me...

Edit...Frogman said it perfectly, they look trapezoidal....IMO only

The new Pro’s remind me of the YXZ, stock not the best but modded they can look good. The Turbo S is still my favorite RZR, the Speed has the potential to be in my opinion the best looking SXS, we need to see some delivered and modded.

Wait until someone parks a pro-r next to a yxz. Pro R is like a school bus compared to YXZ

I’m sure it will; however, I’m just talking about the looks of all the new Pro’s, XP, Turbo, and R. Just like the Yamaha they need some mods to look decent.
