2027 Polaris XPEDITION XP NorthStar & ADV NorthStar: The Ultimate Adventure Side-by-Side

Meet the 2027 Polaris XPEDITION XP NorthStar & ADV NorthStar
The next evolution of off-road adventure has arrived. Discover how the 2027 Polaris XPEDITION XP NorthStar and ADV NorthStar combine premium comfort, exceptional capability, and innovative technology to help you explore farther than ever before.
The 2027 Polaris XPEDITION continues to redefine what riders should expect from a premium side-by-side. Instead of forcing you to choose between comfort, capability, or adventure, the XPEDITION lineup delivers all three in one purpose-built platform. Whether your destination is a remote fishing lake, a hunting camp, a secluded campsite, or simply the next trail you've never explored, the XPEDITION was designed to help you get there with confidence.
Available in both the XP NorthStar and ADV NorthStar configurations, the lineup offers two distinct approaches to adventure while sharing the same rugged foundation. Both models feature a fully enclosed, climate-controlled cab, advanced suspension, impressive towing capability, and the confidence of Polaris engineering. The choice comes down to how you like to travel and what you bring along for the journey.
What Makes the Polaris XPEDITION Different?
Most side-by-sides fit neatly into a single category. Utility models focus on hauling and work, while sport machines prioritize speed and aggressive trail performance. The Polaris XPEDITION takes a different approach by combining the strengths of both into one exceptionally versatile platform.
Designed for Adventure
Rather than being limited to a day's ride, the XPEDITION is built for extended trips where comfort, storage, and reliability become just as important as performance. Its premium cab, generous cargo solutions, and long-distance capability make it an ideal companion for riders who enjoy exploring beyond familiar trails.
Ready for Everyday Life
Adventure is only part of the story. The XPEDITION is equally capable of helping around the property, towing equipment, transporting supplies, or supporting life at the cottage. It transitions naturally between recreation and practical use, giving owners a machine they can rely on throughout the year.
For many riders, the XPEDITION fills a unique space within the Polaris lineup. It offers more comfort and weather protection than many traditional side-by-sides while remaining remarkably capable when the pavement ends. If you're looking for a machine that encourages longer trips, greater confidence, and fewer compromises, the 2027 Polaris XPEDITION XP NorthStar and ADV NorthStar deserve a place at the top of your list.

What's New For The 2027 Polaris XPEDITION?
The 2027 Polaris XPEDITION takes an already capable adventure platform and introduces meaningful updates designed to improve the ownership experience. Instead of simply adding new styling, Polaris focused on improving refinement, usability, and confidence during long days on the trail.
NUMATIX System
The introduction of the NUMATIX system represents a major step forward in XPEDITION refinement. Designed to improve the driving experience, this advanced system helps deliver smoother operation, reduced vibration, and a more premium feel behind the wheel.
Refined Clutch System
For 2027, Polaris updated the XPEDITION clutch system to provide improved response, smoother engagement, and enhanced drivability. Whether crawling through technical terrain or cruising long stretches of trail, the updated system helps deliver more predictable power delivery.
Integrated Onboard Air
Adventure riders often carry equipment that requires proper inflation, from tires and recovery gear to camping accessories. The available onboard air system adds another level of convenience by allowing riders to manage air pressure while away from home.
More Confidence On Every Adventure
The 2027 XPEDITION continues Polaris' goal of creating a side-by-side that feels less like a traditional off-road vehicle and more like an adventure machine built for exploring farther.
XP NorthStar or ADV NorthStar?
Choosing the Right Adventure Partner
Although both models share the same rugged chassis, enclosed NorthStar cab, and proven Polaris engineering, they are designed with different types of adventures in mind. Choosing between them is less about capability and more about how you pack, travel, and spend your time outdoors.
2027 XP NorthStar
The XP is built around versatility. Its traditional dumping cargo box makes it an excellent choice for owners who frequently transport firewood, tools, landscaping supplies, hunting equipment, or materials around the property.
- Traditional dumping cargo box
- Excellent for work and recreation
- Easy loading of bulky cargo
- Ideal for property owners
- Perfect balance of utility and comfort
2027 ADV NorthStar
The ADV replaces the pickup-style cargo box with a fully enclosed rear cargo area, protecting valuable equipment from rain, dust, mud, and snow. It is purpose-built for riders who spend long weekends exploring remote destinations.
- Enclosed rear cargo compartment
- Weather protected storage
- Perfect for camping equipment
- Excellent for photography gear
- Designed for overlanding adventures
If your weekends include projects around the property, hauling equipment to the cottage, or transporting supplies for hunting season, the XP NorthStar offers exceptional flexibility.
If your adventures revolve around camping, exploring, fishing, or protecting expensive gear during long trips, the ADV NorthStar is difficult to beat.

NorthStar Comfort Changes Everything
Many riders are accustomed to planning around the weather. Cold mornings require extra layers, unexpected rain means cutting the ride short, and dusty summer trails often leave everyone covered before lunchtime.
The NorthStar Package transforms that experience. Instead of simply adding a roof or windshield, Polaris engineered a factory integrated cab that creates a refined environment regardless of the conditions outside.
Heating and air conditioning help maintain a comfortable cabin temperature throughout the year, while power windows, locking full doors, and premium sealing significantly reduce dust, wind, and outside noise.
The result is less fatigue during long rides, easier conversations with passengers, and the ability to extend your riding season well beyond the warm summer months.
Climate Control
Factory heating and air conditioning provide year-round comfort whether you are riding in midsummer heat or late autumn temperatures.
Power Windows
Adjust ventilation instantly without leaving your seat, allowing you to respond quickly as trail conditions change.
Factory Integration
Unlike many aftermarket cab systems, the NorthStar package is designed as one complete solution from the factory for a quieter and more refined ride.
Extended Riding Season
Ride comfortably earlier in the spring, later into the fall, and through changing weather without sacrificing comfort.
Built to Keep Exploring
Comfort means very little if the vehicle cannot reach your destination. Every XPEDITION is engineered with the capability expected from a Polaris side-by-side, allowing riders to confidently tackle rough trails, rocky terrain, muddy access roads, and long days far from pavement.
Power is delivered smoothly through the proven 114 horsepower ProStar Gen 2 engine, providing confident acceleration whether climbing steep terrain, towing a trailer, or cruising forestry roads. Combined with long-travel suspension and generous ground clearance, the XPEDITION remains composed across challenging terrain while maintaining exceptional ride quality.
True On-Demand All-Wheel Drive automatically transfers power when additional traction is needed, helping riders maintain momentum through loose gravel, muddy trails, and uneven terrain without requiring constant driver input.
Whether your destination is a remote campsite or a scenic lookout at the end of an unmaintained trail, the XPEDITION is engineered to make the journey just as enjoyable as the destination itself.
Technology That Keeps You Connected
Exploring farther often means travelling beyond familiar roads and reliable cell service. The 2027 Polaris XPEDITION is designed to help you stay informed throughout your journey with integrated technology that supports navigation, communication, and convenience without distracting from the ride itself.
RIDE COMMAND
The available 7-inch RIDE COMMAND display provides intuitive access to mapping, vehicle information, ride statistics, and system settings through a bright touchscreen that's easy to use on the trail.
Navigation
Plan your route, save favourite destinations, and confidently explore new trail systems with integrated GPS mapping designed specifically for off-road adventures.
Group Ride
Ride with confidence by viewing compatible vehicles in your group directly on the map, making it easier to stay together during larger adventures.
Premium Audio
Available JBL Trail Pro audio delivers clear, powerful sound while remaining engineered for the unique demands of off-road riding.
Multiple USB Ports
Keep phones, GPS units, cameras, and other electronics charged throughout long weekends away from home.
Vehicle Information
Monitor important vehicle information in real time, allowing you to focus more on the trail ahead and less on guessing what's happening underneath you.
Build the XPEDITION Around Your Lifestyle
No two adventures look exactly the same. Some riders pack fishing gear, others carry recovery equipment, camping supplies, photography equipment, or hunting accessories. Polaris developed the Lock & Ride MAX accessory system so owners can quickly configure their XPEDITION without permanently modifying the vehicle.

- Roof rack systems
- Storage platforms
- Cargo organizers
- Adventure lighting
Work
- Tool holders
- Recovery equipment
- Cargo storage
- Utility accessories
Outdoor Recreation

- Fishing equipment
- Gun boots

Instead of purchasing a machine dedicated to a single purpose, the XPEDITION evolves alongside your lifestyle. Whether your next trip is a weekend camping adventure or a day maintaining the property, the platform can be adapted to meet your needs.
