  1. Polaris need to make sure they don’t osbourne the rest of their lineup, would love to see an electric Rzr very soon but I have a feeling they may drag their feet a bit and squeeze a bit more out of the ice first

  2. Utility vehicles always made more sense to me for electric vehicles. Close to a charger, good usage of low-speed torque, high speed not required; a local electric utility vehicle makes a lot of sense. At least until we build out electrical infrastructure so people don't have to plan trips/real estate purchases/job locations around charger availability, I don't see the point of electric cars as anything other than toys and short-range commuters for the lucky few who have their charging issues sorted out.
