Polaris introduced the 2022 Slingshot late last year and now the lineup is expanding thanks to the introduction of a new special edition known as the Signature LE. Set to become the Slingshot’s range-topping model, the Signature LE sports a distinctive tri-color exterior that mixes red and black paint with matte bronze accents. They’re joined by black badging, special graphics, and 18- / 20-inch wheels with a bronze finish. Rounding out the highlights are LED lighting units and a “Vented Sport Hood.”
While the Slingshot can’t be described as
luxurious, the Signature LE comes loaded with interior amenities including
heated and ventilated seats which help to make up for the lack of a climate
control system. Buyers will also find a Rockford Fosgate premium audio system
with roll hoop speakers as well as a 7-inch Ride Command infotainment system
with GPS navigation as well as Apple CarPlay compatibility.
Last but not least, there’s gloss black
trim, red contrast stitching, and an XKGlow ambient lighting system. The latter
adds LED accent lighting that can be synchronized to music or manually adjusted
using a smartphone app. Power is provided by a familiar 2.0-liter ProStar
four-cylinder engine that produces 178 hp and 163
Nm of torque. That’s significantly less than the SLR and R variants, which
feature an upgraded engine that develops 203 hp and 195 Nm of torque. However, customers can get a Stage 1 performance tune that
adds 25 hp.
The 2022 Polaris Slingshot Signature LE
will be headed to dealers shortly and pricing starts at US$ 34,999 / CAD$ 44,199 for models with the five-speed manual and US$ 36,749 / CAD$ 46,699 with
the AutoDrive gearbox.
