Ranger XD 1500 Northstar Edition

  • COMPLETE CLIMATE CONTROL: The upgraded heating and air conditioning (HVAC) system offers 5 different air flow settings and a recirculation setting to draw air from inside the cab instead of outside for faster, more efficient heating and cooling.
  • Stay comfortable in harsh weather conditions with heat & AC and a fully-enclosed cab that’s been redesigned for better cab sealing to prevent dust and water intrusion, while locking in the temperature from the climate-controlled cab.

Unmatched Comfort

  • INDUSTRY'S MOST SPACIOUS CAB: We’ve increased interior space with 2” more leg room than full-size UTVs, plus easier entry and exit for tasks like working fence lines. Adjustable seating and a telescopic steering wheel let you find the perfect fit for your height and riding preferences.
  • PREMIUM SEATING: New contoured seating has added bolstering for more comfort, while featuring a new center flip-down seat that transforms into an arm rest with added cupholders for more convenience.
  • LEGENDARY SMOOTH RIDE: Industry-leading 12” suspension travel, the ultra smooth engagement and quiet operation of the STEELDRIVE transmission, and chassis improvements deliver the smoothest ride of any RANGER we’ve ever built. A longer wheelbase delivers better stability in rough terrain for confident handling.
  • DRIVE MODES: Tailor throttle response with different drive modes. Comfort mode limits throttle response and engine braking, great for work scenarios. Standard mode delivers normal throttle response and engine braking for everyday riding. Sport maximizes throttle response for a sporty ride on the trails. Tow/Haul maximizes engine torque and limits speed for heavy payloads.
  • Extreme duty doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice on comfort. The RANGER XD 1500 NorthStar Edition comes equipped to maximize comfort and convenience with the most spacious and premium cab we’ve ever built, and rides like an absolute dream.
