Polaris Slingshot, the adventurous and attention-grabbing three-wheel vehicle, has teamed up with ROUSH® Performance to release a special edition model – the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition. This new model combines a striking appearance with top-notch performance, creating a racetrack-inspired ride with exclusive ROUSH® branding.
Based on the already loaded Slingshot R trim, the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition features the powerful 203-horsepower ProStar engine and adds premium components including Brembo® Brakes with exclusive slotted rotors, a Slingshot Excursion Top, Sparco® Pedal Covers, and an exclusive race car-inspired steering wheel with color accents. This special edition also comes with a graphics package that enhances the Slingshot’s unique look with unmistakable ROUSH® styling and branding. The interior is highlighted with seats featuring an exclusive design, a special edition color-matched design for the instrument cluster, and blacked-out badging. Manual transmission options feature a ROUSH® Block “R” branding on the gear shift knob, while AutoDrive offerings come standard with Paddle Shifters.
The Slingshot ROUSH® Edition’s exclusive Racetrack Red trim with blacked-out badging and steering wheel color accents create a symbol of exclusivity with this special edition. The special ROUSH® graphics package and bold branding throughout, including ROUSH® Seat Cover Design, ROUSH® Instrument Cluster, and the ROUSH® Badge prominently displayed on the glove box, further enhance its look. The shifter on manual models even features the iconic ROUSH® Block R branding.
One of the new features of the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition is the Slingshot Excursion Top. The integrated toolless install and easy removal soft top has improved driver headroom and visibility. It also provides added luxury, comfort, style, and shade with race-car style cues.
The four-piston Brembo® Brakes provide unrivaled stopping power and come standard on the ROUSH® Edition. The slotted Brembo® front brake rotors are 14% larger than the standard front brake rotors and feature fixed calipers.
For improved performance and to fit the racing-inspired theme throughout the vehicle, the Pedal Covers by Sparco® provide better foot grip. The short accelerator pedal is paired with a shorter and wider brake and clutch pedal for assured control.
The Slingshot ROUSH® Edition is available with either a Manual transmission or AutoDrive transmission. All AutoDrive transmission offerings come standard with Paddle Shifters, which connect the driver with the vehicle by giving them the ability to shift gears on demand. The Paddle Shifters are made from high-quality composite material to deliver great feedback while driving.
At the controls of the Rockford Fosgate® audio system is Slingshot’s industry-leading 7″ Display powered by RIDE COMMAND. The infotainment system comes standard with RIDE COMMAND+, which includes Apple CarPlay®, GPS navigation, and weather and traffic overlays. The Stage 2 Audio Kit by industry-leading Rockford Fosgate® includes a 100-watt Audio System, Automatic Volume Control, and a Plug-and-Play Expandable Amplifier.
To further personalize their race-track-inspired ride, drivers can choose from an assortment of additional factory accessories, including Heated and Cooled Seats, additional storage bags, color-matched rear fender, or upgrade their sound system with a Stage 3 Audio kit featuring integrated speakers behind each vehicle headrest.
The Slingshot ROUSH® Edition is available in Racetrack Red and will start shipping to dealers in spring 2023. The Manual transmission model starts at $37,349; $37,649 CA; $46,999 CAD.
