Polaris Slingshot Introduces the 2026 Lineup

Polaris Slingshot has officially unveiled its highly anticipated 2026 model year lineup, boasting innovative designs, an exclusive Grand Touring Limited-Edition model, and a captivating selection of color choices. As the brand continues to set the standard for open-road excitement, the new offerings are crafted for those who live for adventure and connection.

A Distinctive Driving Experience

According to Polaris Slingshot's Vice President, Josh Hermes, the newly released lineup is engineered to transform every drive into an unforgettable journey. The addition of premium paint finishes and the grand return of the Grand Touring model is sure to elevate the brand's unique riding experience. The Grand Touring model, characterized by its striking two-tone Viper Black and Green Venom paint, blends aesthetic appeal with heightened comfort — making it a standout choice for enthusiasts.

The vehicle's design incorporates a color-shifting effect, enhanced by exclusive badging that celebrates its limited status. Comfort-focused features include a color-matched Slingshade and rear fender that seamlessly integrate with the Slingshot’s sleek lines. To bolster convenience during entry and exit, the model features vertically opening T-Top panels that remove barriers while providing tinted windows, ensuring drivers maintain an open view while driving.

Impressive Technology and Power

Under the hood, the Grand Touring model showcases a powerful Polaris-built ProStar 2.0L four-cylinder engine, generating 204 horsepower. It offers both manual and AutoDrive transmission options, along with two distinct driving modes: Comfort for a smooth ride and Slingshot for those looking for a sportier experience. Notably, the vehicle is equipped with Brembo® brakes, ensuring a high level of stopping power while enhancing driver confidence and safety.

Inside, the cockpit is a hub of modern technology, featuring a Rockford Fosgate® audio system that delivers an impressive 700-watt sound experience. This cutting-edge sound system includes immersive lighting customizable via the Slingshot LED mobile app, which allows for synchronization with the audio, creating an engaging journey.
