2024 Polaris XPEDITION ADV 5 NorthStar Detailed UTV Overview 

Congratulations to Polaris for inventing the 1996 Jeep Wrangler TJ for more than TWICE the price than they were new.

Remember when side by sides and 4 wheelers were basic and cheap? Those were the good old days lol

$50,000 for 114 horsepower is such a slap in the face At $50k I don't care what it's meant for, it should have the power to do anything.

I can't wait to get one of these on Craigslist in 15 years when I can afford it.

I looked at the 2 door version of this at the local fair a few weeks ago, it was $41,000… that’s just crazy, I paid $42,700 for my 2020 ram 2500 , but obviously there is a market for something like this or they wouldn’t have built it…

I’ll use that money to get Jeep wrangler or gladiator 😂

So it’s literally just a small truck. Except it’s all plastic, tighter and not street legal.. and it’s still the same price as one

I love Polaris like the buggy but for that money I’d rather buy a Bronco or a jeep WTH

Wow...how innovative. It's like a really loud underpowered jeep that you trailer everywhere. Makes a lot of sense. Can't wait to get one.

Wow... Built for the outdoors man who wants to stay inside!!! Rich outdoors man that is.......

Congrats Polaris! You've entered the luxury urbanites pickup truck market! Same price too! Remarkable!

My dealer here in PA said they already sold one at $45k USD 🤣🤣 how can you justify that kinda money for that thing

Good lord that's more expensive than my gladiator...

Almost as good as a Geo Tracker.

All the guys at deer camp got new Polaris’ rangers this year. I bought a used Jeep JK. And laughed all the way to the bank with my A/C on. 😂

It's no longer a side by side, it's a mini SUV

Prices of these vehicles at this level don't even make sense. Wranglers or Tacomas can be outfitted for less money and legally ride all the rodes to get to the trails. I'd would bet that the industry doesn't sell the numbers to justify machines at this price point. Very nice machine, but it would never be an option for 99%.

They are really awesome with a set of tracks. We just took a short weekend getaway and road from just outside Leadville Colorado up to the backside of Breckenridge mountain. It was a blast. With a 11 and 4 yr old this make sense for our family now. Hopefully, we get back into snowmobiles when the little one gets a little older.

60k ?🤯 Who is this for? Why not just buy a new Jeep and go bush bash in that lol

I priced out the Xpedition ADV 5 NORTHSTAR with the optional Overland Package ($14,742 CDN) and the total before tax is $72,311. Add our federal and provincial 13% HST tax of $9400 and you have a grand total of $81,711 before freight and PDI at the dealership. I then priced out a 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited 4 door with the 3.6L engine and 8 speed automatic ($3995) and the total come out to $69,115 plus $8985 tax for a grand total of $78,100 CDN again without freight or PDI. The Xpedition is a great concept but I believe these will be a hard sell at that price point here in Canada.

It looks awesome!

What an awesome overland/hunting rig. But for $60-K🫡! That is what my new Jeep Gladiator Rubicon cost me, and it gets me to and from the hunt. But, well done Polaris. It's a great innovation in the SXS world! 👍👍

Ouch! $56,000 CDN. That's more than I paid for my 2020 Toyota Highlander new. That's for the guy who wants bragging rights on the trails. Crazy.

very cool but 60k? not a chance, this worlds out of control, i bought a 2023 ranger and even that was outrageously priced for what u get…. Polaris build quality is brutal for 20 plus grand canadian and placement of belt/batt are in very bad locations, had to put springs in brake calliper to hold pressure because so sloppy from factory they were making a clicking noise so bad u could hardly ride the thing…. anything cool u have to buy separate for some reason even didn’t come with review mirror… all and all i love sxs but would never waste my money on Polaris anything in the future

wow i remember when the honda BIG RED 3 wheeler came out and i thought that thing was big...lol.. my how times have changed..lol

Since the Northstar edition doesn’t have a tilt bed, how are you supposed to get underneath everything to service it?

Just buy a jeep ....

You can get a Ford Ranger Or Chevy Colorado with a camper top for cheaper than this. And those will be more comfortable, highway legal, quieter, get better mileage, and last 10-15x as many miles. This thing has a foot longer wheelbase than a Cherokee Classic (so harder to turn around on tight trails, more likely to high center or clip rocks underneath) on a narrow 64" width so it'll be sideways tippy on many off camber trails. Curb weight is 3000lbs or more too, same as a Cherokee Classic. So you're not even getting better handling by being lighter than a truck. The *basic* trim without any HVAC, windows, or a windshield is still at like $35k starting price! I'm really struggling to imagine who this is for, except people with way more money than common sense. Rich old ranchers who'll just write it off as an "ag equipment" tax deduction maybe? At this point, you're using a truck to ....trailer this slightly smaller truck for riding. We were looking at something more comfortable for camping & riding when it's sub-freezing, and realized a $9k used lower mileage F-150 was going to be better than this in every way. Toss in the Pro R and Maverick R which are insanely huge and powerful vehicles too big for technical trails, and it's pretty clear Polaris and Can-Am are just chasing numbers and fools.

That’s a really nice machine . I looked at one but couldn’t justify the cost . I guess if that’s the only machine you want and make good use of it all the best . Let’s face it , if people didn’t buy this stuff the companies would not make them . I own and am very happy with my defender hd9 dps cab model. All the features I wanted and priced reasonably for today’s market. Nice review of the features on this machine. 👍.

Mines almost here!! I was shocked when i found out theres no rear ducts for heat. Still cant wait to get it hopefully 2 weeks 🙏 😊

Great Rig and review

I'll be getting mine on market place in 10 years

Bought one today. The dark orange color. So nice. If you hated anything about Polaris. Cheap build quality. Crappy transmission. Forget about that. This is top notch. I own a 2024 ranger xp Texas edition and it isn’t close to this nice.

For the price, you best be able to fit adults in the back comfortably. Yeah it’s cool that it’s all closed in, but prices on sxs is getting out of control. This isn’t for everyone but 60k for a utv is out of control. Will it get places most suvs can’t, prob. Just buy a 4Runner 😂

At this price id have to ask what the MPG is. That's the only possible benefit id see over getting a midsize truck like a ZR2 or raptor Ranger

This unit is insane!! Really love your videos!!

Nice review, good looking machine, but add those steering wheel specs that you would like to see, jumps the price at least another 5k.

Good review! Like a lot of people I struggle with the price. If my income was better...way better, I'd probably get one. I'm only 30 min away from being at 9,000 feet (that's 2743 meters for you Canadians 😂) with over 1200 miles of trails and I can picture myself leaving my place and heading out to the trail with this. This would definitely be faster and probably more fun on the trails than a Jeep. I am curious how many miles people are getting out of their Generals, Rangers etc because I wonder how many miles you could get XPEDITION ADV 5 before needing some serious mechanical work. In my mind something with that price tag should be able to go a lot of miles.

12:50 i personally dont like steering wheel controls, i like the fact it has a traditional steering wheel

I deliver these every week all over the country, they’re nice, but not nice enough for the price imho….

Its an amazing rig honestly. I love everything about it. However, the price makes it only availavle to a small portion of enthusiasts.

Have a 2021 Ranger Northstar ultimate, 4K and no issues, for the price of this unit , side mirrors, rear bumper should all be standard, and I hear they are very loud inside, still a great looking unit and some people will buy them

Hope this air conditioner does better than the ranger northstar because mine doesent cut it in Oklahoma anything past 95 it gets uncomfortable.....high humidity also does it no favors

Insane! Im blown away not only by the price but the interior space. Also, I think it would be useful to know how much HP and torque and cylinders it has when mentioning the motor. At least for those of us who don't keep up with the world of ATVs, SxS and UTVs etc. Awesome machine!

For $60K I would buy a Tacoma and have a real truck. More reliable also.

I wish you could get a snorkel kit for it because down south we do a lot of trail and mud riding

Sxs's these days the prices is ludicrous out of range for most buyers ain't worth price no matter how good it is

This is what I imagined a kei car SUV being

I live in Canada where we have to load the unit onto a trailer to get any where. If we could drive from my home throughout the city I would without hesitation to buy one. If DOT would identify Polaris expedition as vehicle sales would increase.

I’m just wondering how it would handle deep water/mud

The 1% win again!

Trying to decide between this and the ranger 1500, what are your thoughts?

Suzuki Samari is much less than $56k

dude that's a whole ass car

Does it have blinkers and a horn?

Wonder if there is a signal light kit for the places atvs are legal to drive on public roads-this IS perfect for the acreage owner / outdoorsman / overlanding!!!

Never in a million years would I have thought there was a market for something like this.

For $45,000, that thing better come with a 5 year no question ask kind of warranty

Do a comparison with new Ford Explorer. I think their in the same class. 😂

$60k is insane. I’ve always found the prices of these things outrageous, but this definitely takes the cake. SO not worth it!

I saw one in Carson city and on the showroom floor it looks like it should have a license plate. Just make a street legal jeep killer. 4x4s are big and heavy now. Polaris could dominate the micro 4x4 market if they made it street legal. Think Suzuki samurai. Speaking of samurai…. Hey Suzuki…bring back the samurai and show Polaris how to make a 1900 pound street legal 4x4.

Might make an awesome winter 4x4... maybe throw some trax on it and away you go. Perfect for MB winters hahaha

Is it actually quite inside though?

Bad ass

Can you start weighing them? Live weight.

Way to EXPENSIVE !!!

ive been looking into getting one. but the base price of $30k+ is ehh. thinking about getting a base ranger for 15k or the new 1500

Do you see polaris doing turbo on this model down the road ? Or don’t see them doing that ? Strictly rzr models with turbo.

I really want to buy a vehicle like this to go with my son. But these prices are pushing a lot of people out of this experience.

That's awesome. Best UTV made at this point in time for what it does.

What are the tires used from factory i cant tell please tell me somebody …thnx

Would love to have one but for 35k starting price they can keep it. Can just get a 20 year old jeep for 5-10k that you can work on yourself.

2023 Jeep JL Rubi sitting on the lot here for 62k cdn. I don't understand this at all at the 59k cdn price tag i just asked local about when i am gonna also need a 60k truck and 10k trailer to get this somewhere. Even as a work horse the Jeep beats it on specs for towing. Love offroading, and dont think I will ever understand this at this price point and limitations

Ya right, I'll get a 4runner and spend my time on adventures vs. driving back and forth to the Polaris dealer constantly.

What model of Polaris or any brand for that matter has EVER gone done in price?

56-60k and you need to upgrade the hell out of it, there's a problem.💯%

I want this with a turbo and 72” wide on 32s.

Just buy a jeep, bronco, tacoma, etc.

The only reason I'd think about buying one is if it were completely DOT certified and highway legal

Whats the whole belt driven vs chain driven deal i hear people talk about?

is there an e-brake?

I know this isn't the place for this debate, but if it is a factory enclosed cab i don't think the law should force you to wear a helmet, unfortunately i don't have $70k to drop on one of these babies but i would take it to court to get the law changed, also also if you ad blinkers then it becomes a road legal vehicle with "limitations"

A brand-new Gen 1 Ford Raptor crew cab was 41,995 with the 6.2-liter v8 option… that’s just insane lol

It's a Honda element without the suicide doors and removable rear seats at just about twice the price that they sold for new.

my 20 year old chevy tahoe can do everything this thing can and more for a tenth of the price😂

I'm really curious to see if this can find a market. It's basically what a modern SUV would be if it didn't need to adhere to the regulations to make it road legal (e.g. no bumper so 90° approach and departure angles), and I wonder whether there are enough people who want it when you still need a truck to tow it to a trailhead.

can't wait to see one of these on 46" bkts absolutely buried in mud.

Needs a HEPA filter in the HVAC,,, And a Roof Top Tent.. and at this price.. should have a 6x6 option at this level.. 😊 …with tax a new Can Am 6x6 full cab is around 48K out the door here in TN.. which will get you a damn nice USED anything..

It needs some type of separation between cargo area and the cab ! Anyone that’s rolled any vehicle knows your cargo is what will kill you !

Wow!! This takes the UTV to the next level. I'm sure Polaris will not be able to build enough. Very cool. Merci

I wish this was road legal, I’d love to daily this thing!

How easy is it to do the maintenance on these?

Polaris should start building pick up trucks, seems like the logical next step.. one stop shopping!

I wish we got the sizuki jimney in the us

Pretty sure my 2012 Ranger Crew won't be going anywhere for the next 25 years.

Since I bought my first Polaris people said oh I'd rather have a Jeep and I replied you can't have this much fun in a jeep.... but at this price point I'd rather have a Jeep

👍👍👍👍👍

More noisy than the ranger ? Thanks

ok Can Am if you make one, do hardocated windows and no power in the rear, also standard HVAC is fine. we don't need a 60K SxS thats too heavy to go in mud. This rig is cool but id still rather a Fox Qs3 pkg on a Defender Limited. you said one thing right, this is a SxS for someone who doesn't want to be outside.

I like these things - I just will never get one - completely out of my range
