Meet the 2027 Polaris Patriot Boost INDY® VR1 Dynamix 137 in ****—a trail-bred, performance-first snowmobile that looks fast standing still and feels even faster the moment your thumb finds the throttle.
At the heart of this INDY VR1 is the **Patriot™ Boost** powerplant: an **840cc**, **turbocharged**, **liquid-cooled**, **2-cylinder**, **2-stroke** built in a **horizontal in-line** layout with **reed valve** breathing. It’s **fuel injected** (gas/oil injected) and happy on **regular** fuel, with the convenience of **electric start** for quick getaways when the group is already staging at the trailhead. Power delivery runs through a **Continuously Variable (CVT)** system with **P-22 / TEAM LWT** clutching and **belt** drive, and when the trail gets tight—or the parking spot gets tighter—there’s **reverse** to keep things easy.
The personality here is unmistakably “ride it like you mean it,” but it’s also engineered to stay composed when conditions change every few miles. The lightweight **aluminum MATRYX** frame gives the sled a crisp, connected feel, and the suspension package is built to match the mission. Up front you get an **independent A-arm** setup with **9.5 inches** of travel and **shock mounted adjustment**, backed by **Fox® Dynamix** **adjustable gas shocks with remote reservoirs** (coil-over). Out back, the **PRO-CC** rear suspension brings **16.2 inches** of travel with **two rear shocks**, plus a **Fox® Dynamix** center shock—again, **adjustable** with **remote reservoirs**. Translation: whether the trail is freshly groomed, choppy, or getting hammered by weekend traffic, you’ve got the tools to keep the ride planted and predictable.
Point it where you want it to go and the chassis responds. Steering is **manual** via **handlebars**, with **Pro-Steer™ composite skis** up front and **carbide skags** helping bite into hardpack. The stance is set at **42.5 inches**, pairing stability with quick transitions, and the overall footprint is dialed for trail precision: **120 inches** long, **47 inches** wide, and **46 inches** tall, with a **dry weight of 531 lb** that feels purpose-built rather than bulky.
Then there’s the business end: a **Cobra Track** measuring **137 inches** long by **15 inches** wide, with **1.35-inch** lugs. It’s the kind of setup that feels right at home charging down the straightaways, staying confident through sweeping corners, and keeping traction when the trail surface turns unpredictable.
Control and comfort are equally intentional. The **Matryx Stealth** braking system uses a **hydraulic disc** rear brake for strong, consistent stopping power. The cockpit keeps you focused with **RIDE COMMAND™** GPS plus **mobile app instrumentation**, and it sweetens longer days with **Bluetooth® audio**. When the temperatures drop (because they will), you’ll appreciate the **adjustable heated grips** right where you need them. A **mid-height, tinted LED**-equipped setup rounds out the front end with clean visibility and a sharp look.
Practical touches are here too: **11.5 gallons** of fuel capacity for solid range, **1.8 gallons** of underseat storage for essentials, and smart protection like a **belt guard**, **hand guards**, and a **snow guard**. Add **skid-resistant** running boards and a supportive **one-piece vinyl seat**, and you’ve got a sled that’s ready to rip all day—and come back asking for more.
In ****, this VR1 doesn’t just blend into winter; it announces itself. Ready when you are.
