The Polaris Slingshot is a quirky three-wheeler and it’s getting a handful of updates for 2023. While the changes aren’t drastic, the company is embracing customization as the model sports new colorways as well as more than 50 new painted accessories. Speaking of accessories, the company will offer a new RAM X-Grip mount that securely holds smartphones to the top of the dashboard. Also new for 2023 is a rearview mirror for models outfitted with the Excursion top.
Staying inside, the available 7-inch
infotainment system features an enhanced user experience. Polaris didn’t
elaborate, but the system features Apple CarPlay compatibility as well as
Bluetooth and USB connectivity. The range-topping Slingshot R goes even further
with GPS navigation as well as connected services.
The entry-level Slingshot S starts at US$ 21,499 which is US$ 700 more than its predecessor. It features a 2.0-liter
four-cylinder engine that develops 178 hp and 163
Nm of torque. The engine is paired to a five-speed manual, but an automated
gearbox is available for an extra US$ 1,850.
The better-equipped Slingshot SL starts at US$ 27,499 for 2023, but customers might want to upgrade to the US$ 30,399 Slingshot
SLR as it features a more powerful engine with 203 hp and 195 Nm of torque. The engine also comes standard on the range-topping
Slingshot R, which begins at US$ 33,999.
