OFF-ROAD WITH CONFIDENCE

KAWASAKI FIRST

RIDGE XR is the first Kawasaki side x side with a four-cylinder engine at the core. This means more power and higher torque than ever before, accommodating a wide range of work and recreation situations. Tuned to deliver an impressive 116 horsepower, the high-performance in-line four produces unparalleled sport riding enunciated by an unmistakable howl to excite the senses.

SMOOTH OPERATION

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) offers an incredibly smooth engine response, contributing to the silky-smooth power delivery—especially from start to 20 mph. Thanks to carefully tuned engine settings, the CVT belt catch and release is extremely natural, ensuring the belt stays engaged until almost completely stopped, adding to confident downhill engine braking.

HIGH-GRADE INSIDE

CONVENIENCE

With 1,000-lbs. cargo capacity and 2,500 lbs. towing capacity, RIDGE XR is built for hard work. The 37.6 x 49.0 flat cargo bed design facilitates loading from three sides and helps secure transported items with four built-in hooks as handy tie-down points.  

DETACHABLE TAILGATE

On the 2024 Kawasaki RIDGE XR, the tailgate's injection-molded design includes built-in cup holders, a convenient feature when the tailgate is down. The tailgate can also be removed without tools for extended hauling capability.

RIDER CONNECTION

7-INCH TOUCHSCREEN

RIDGE XR boasts a high-grade, 7-inch, full-color TFT LCD screen featuring multiple selectable displays. The Kawasaki's exclusive RIDEOLOGY app offers several new functional and entertainment features to enhance group rides.

The engine delivers 116 horsepower and produces a distinctive sound. The RIDGE XR offers three selectable power modes for different purposes. Work mode provides a mild throttle response suited for slower-paced tasks. Sport mode increases throttle responsiveness for a more engaging ride. Normal mode offers a balanced setting for smooth and responsive engine performance. These modes allow riders to tailor the power delivery to their needs and preferences.
