MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE BECOMING "ECO-FRIENDLY"--NOT JUST BECAUSE GAS-PRICES REMAIN HIGH, BUT ALSO BECAUSE OF AN INCREASING EMPHASIS ON PRESERVING THE ENVIRONMENT. AND, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE TRADITIONALLY KNOWN AS "GAS AND OIL"-MACHINES, "ALL-TERRAIN VEHICLES" AND "SIDE-BY-SIDES" ARE ALSO STARTING TO "GO GREEN". RECENTLY, POLARIS INDUSTRIES INTRODUCED THE NEW "RANGER E-V"--A "SIDE-BY-SIDE" THAT'S BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR CLEAN AND QUIET OPERATION. WITH THE LARGEST BATTERY-PACK IN THE INDUSTRY, THE LONGEST RANGE OF ANY ELECTRIC MIDSIZE, AND A 25-MILE-PER-HOUR TOP-SPEED, THE "RANGER E-V" OPERATES AT ABOUT 3.5 CENTS, PER MILE--VERSUS NINE CENTS, PER MILE, ON A COMPARABLE GAS-VEHICLE. THE "RANGER E-V" WAS BUILT IN RESPONSE TO A GROWING CONSUMER DEMAND FOR ALTERNATIVE-POWERED OFF-ROAD VEHICLES. WHEN DESIGNING THE "RANGER E-V", POLARIS TOOK ITS BEST-IN-CLASS "UTILITY SIDE-BY-SIDE"--AND MADE IT USABLE TO A WHOLE-NEW COMMUNITY. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT "POLARIS-INDUSTRIES"-DOT-COM.
