Leading off-road vehicle manufacturer Polaris has unveiled a host of user-inspired upgrades to its 2026 RANGER line-up - with the Nordic Pro Edition models at the heart of the enhancements.
For those working in the landscape and amenity sector, where unpredictable weather and varying terrains are part of the job, the new Nordic Pro Edition is designed to make long days more productive, comfortable, and safe.
The RANGER Nordic Pro Edition has long been a popular choice for professionals who need reliable performance in all conditions. For 2026, Polaris has taken it a step further by introducing a factory-installed, 360-degree cab system as standard across the RANGER 570, 1000 and XP 1000 Nordic Pro platforms.
This full cab setup includes a roof, tip-out windshield, rear panel, and full doors with manual-crank windows to provide complete protection from wind, rain and cold. Added to this is an in-cab heater and defrost system, ensuring year-round climate control and a clear view, whatever the conditions.
Also fitted as standard is a Polaris Engineered heavy-duty winch, offering added peace of mind for those moments when a tough job requires extra pulling power. New for 2026, the vehicle is also finished in a striking new Blue Dusk colourway.
“Professionals in the landscape and amenity space often spend long hours outdoors, exposed to the elements,” says Richard Coleby, Polaris UK National Sales Manager.
“The new Nordic Pro Edition has been designed with them in mind, ensuring operators can stay warm, dry and comfortable while still having all the strength, load capacity and reliability that Polaris is known for. It’s about improving wellbeing for workers while also boosting productivity.”
Polaris is the best-selling UTV in the UK and the new 2026 range will help to strengthen that position.
Coleby adds: “When you’re asking your kit to work as hard as you do, having a machine that can keep up – and keep going – makes all the difference. That’s why Polaris continues to be the brand professionals turn to.”
Beyond the Nordic Pro Edition, Polaris has also rolled out a major functional upgrade across other 2026 RANGER models including a new Gen 2 transmission. This delivers 50% easier shifting, reducing strain on operators and ensuring smoother, more reliable gear changes. This will be particularly important for those jumping in and out of vehicles multiple times a day.
It’s a change that might seem small on paper but will make a big difference to day-to-day usability and operator comfort.
The updates to the RANGER line-up reflect Polaris’ commitment to rider-inspired innovation. “The latest announcements to the RANGER line-up are a direct result of our dedication to enhance every aspect of ride quality, putting the rider at the centre of product development,” said Rodrigo Lourenco, Vice President Off Road Vehicles Sales, EMEA.
For those considering upgrading their fleet, there’s still time to take advantage of The Great Polaris £1M Giveaway, running until the end of 2025. This exclusive promotion offers up to £2,000 off selected Sportsman and Ranger models and as much as £5,000 off the all-electric Ranger Kinetic.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity for businesses in the landscape and amenity sector to invest in the very best equipment at an unbeatable price,” says Coleby.
