Nice to have such good choices - Not surprised you picked the Mav R to have something new - glad you will be beating on it and telling us how it does! I am happy with my Pro R - end of the day the seating position will probably always keep me in a Pro R over Mav R. Would love to see a Pro R with tranny in the future - we can only hope!

IMO after riding in both and driving the Pro R, Pro R has better overall suspension feel, but the Maverick R feels more stable. The Mav R hits bump stop out way too easily on the rear stock. I would sell the Pro R, the upgrades that are coming for the Maverick R is going to be nuts. The Pro R really needs the turbo to set it off, but after a turbo you're already $6k+ into the machine and still having a belt in a hard to get to place. Even a tune on the Maverick R makes it already a much better machine that eats Pro R's power wise. The DCT is the cherry on top. I'm a Polaris guy but after being in that new Maverick R I think i'm going to be converted.

Great Review Dallin! The Pro R is so rowdy and fun to drive. The Mav R is overall way faster in the desert. We will have to see on the track. Pro R ultimate comes with a lot more goodies like Stereo switchable drive tunes, shock tunes that are superior to anything else. At the end of the day the Mav R is just faster and handles better. I was just watching the Silver State 300 race and he was crushing it in the Pro R and ended up losing because of the belt. Mav R has a leg up with the Transmission. Game changer!

I love my pro r switches I don't want to have to go to the screen to do that so polaris got it right with that.

@jabroni6199 7 ай бұрын

I don’t know that it actually handles better. It has a lower CG, less body roll and bump steer. But it also understeers, can’t take the big hits as well and has worse braking. That isn’t better IMO. It’s more of a lateral move and the better handling vehicle comes down to the type of riding and driving style you prefer.

@UTV-A 7 ай бұрын

Another big factor in comparing the 2 cars is the 2000 cc motor puts The Pro R in a different class. We were floored when the Mav R came out and it was still under 1000 cc, so it can compete in every class in racing.

I think one car that doesn’t get enough credit is the Turbo R . I chose that over a pro r for some different t reasons. Maybe you don’t have any buddies with one but we will be out there for the desert bash poker run in December. We would totally be able to link up if you ever want to compare it.

@UTV-A 7 ай бұрын

I would drive the pro R 4 first then fully commit to the turbo R. Either way you can’t go wrong. Pro R just has more potential. Downside to the Pro R is that the motor puts it in a class of its own, so it can’t be included in many racing events

Maverick R doesn't have navigation, doesn't have speakers because they want you to buy the audio roof but if you buy it your stuck with the stock cage, has weak a arms and sway links I saw 3 mav Rs break down at utv takeover sand hollow 2 were bent a arms and 1 was a broken sway link, soft suspension in the rear, the tires rub stock , it understeers, steering is rough and jerky, its 6 lug and fit and finish is horrible. Speed UTV doesn't have navigation, doesn't have electronic suspension, doesn't have throttle modes, needs upgraded wilwood brake kit which should have came stock, sounds like a leaf blower, looks like a kit car inside and out, it's a one trick pony desert car, it's a Chinese owned company and no aftermarket parts for the hisun. Pro R / Turbo R crap ball joints for 2022, crap cage and crap clutch after 1500miles. Brawley gts it's electric so range will not be good, it looks like it's only ment for rock crawling, I honestly think it's to pretty to bash against rocks and from what I'm told you can't drive it on the street plus it's new so who knows what the bugs are and also this car won't have aftermarket accessories.
