Slingshot has received significant attention since its introduction to the marketplace two months ago, offering an entirely new on-road driving and riding experience. Now, as Slingshot begins rolling off the production line, consumers will have the opportunity to experience this innovative new product for themselves.
“We continue to introduce new, innovative products and technologies that create opportunities for growth here and around the world. Today, we are excited to celebrate the revolutionary 3-wheel, Polaris Slingshot into full production here in Spirit Lake,” said Bennett Morgan, President and Chief Operating Officer of Polaris.
“Polaris is committed to both understanding the desired riding experience of our customers and then working to exceed those expectations,” said Brian Hines, Director of Operations at the Spirit Lake plant. “We could not be happier to produce such a high-quality vehicle at our Spirit Lake manufacturing facility.”
Initial shipments of Slingshot to Polaris dealers will commence by the end of this month.
With the production of Slingshot and increased production of other vehicles, Polaris announced in August it will add 300 jobs to its Iowa manufacturing facilities.
