2022 Polaris RZR Pro R vs Turbo R SHOOTOUT!

This time on Busted Knuckle Ride and Review we are doing something a little different. We have our hands on a 2022 Polaris RZR Pro R and a 2022 Polaris RZR Turbo R and we are going to see if the Pro R is that much better. Now the Base Model Pro R is around $7000 more than a Turbo R. So we want to run these around the track and do some riding and see if it is worth the extra money. There are a few key differences between the two. The Turbo R has the same Turbo 929cc 181hp engine as the Pro XP. It is the new 5 lug hubs, brakes, and suspension as the Pro R but with a shorter more nimble wheelbase. The Turbo R only has a AWD, 2wd front diff and a few more distinct differences. Stay tuned as we hot lap the track and go head to head for time with our good friend and Polaris RZR sponsored racer Michael Lee from UTV Rehab. Loser buys Lunch!

Turbo R Sport owner here! I have a few seat hours in a 2022 Pro R ultimate and now just purchased a 2022 Turbo R sport, I gotta say, I thought I would be disappointed with the turbo r having driven a pro r, but the turbo R has more than impressed me, more power than I’ll ever need for my use. I guess we’ll see how it holds up, so far so good.

Great video Matt, both are great machines, I'm an N/A person myself driven turbos of all types, some are good, some are not, I'd spend the extra $7000 on the Pro R, the longer wheelbase and better throttle response/control is a big plus and a lesser chance of overheating on those long riding days, I got buddies who drink Polaris Kool Aid and the Can Am Kool Aid, they are both decent machines, they both have great after market support, so the balls in the buyers court, when you say $7000 difference 95% of buyers finance these machines over several years and it is not allot of money/month spread out over this time some places are doing 9 yrs financing, so get the Pro R, its like saying i want that new truck, that $75/month is too much, just do it, the heck with having regrets, you only live once, Matt/BKF still kicking ass 👍

I'm a turbo kind of person over N/A honestly. I don't mind the "shortcomings" behind a turbo'd engine. That turbo shove is half the fun. Although it's hard to ignore the other pros you get with the Pro R.

Great video. I'm in Northern Az and have a 2019 XP 1000 and absolutely love it. I know it only has 110 HP but I can rip through small rock gardens and rock crawl with the best of them and she's a badass on fire roads.

[jaysonsorensen]

Not apples to apples comparison. One has dynamix. It obviously going to handle better. The na machines are great if you run low elevation all the time. The pro R at 6-8k loses a lot of hp, and it heavier. They aren't nearly as impressive up in the mountains. So just something to think about if you live up higher or go to the dunes.

[rockkhound]

I love modern sxs but the prices are ridiculous. I can not justify it lol but whatever floats your boat . Good show Matt.

[mattmccams]

Awesome! Been toying around with the idea of a turbo r. Think I’d spend way more time in the mountains if I snagged one.

[danoiddano]

Matt you’re late braking before the jump 10 feet later, loading and then unloading the suspension over the jump. Nice technique mang. I want a pro R now.great video thanks

[montanamountainutv]

Did you notice either one clunking or making any major unwanted suspension noises? My deposit is on a Turbo R premium, picking up next week! Selling x3 xds rr!!!!

[offroad]

Great video. If you were to build a RZR rock crawler today for east coast riding, would you recommend the Pro R, Turbo R, or the tried and proven Turbo S ? And 2 or 4 seater?

[mathiasness]

I’m sorry but you cannot compare a computer controlled shock system 100 inputs per second Independently controlled vs a valve controlled system that’s not even the same handling by any stretch of the imagination.

[eduardozazueta]

Not a fair comparison as not the same suspension, Dinamix makes all the difference

[bryanspanjer]

At this point in time, fuel usage comes in to play more than ever. I understand that the four-cylinder engine uses a lot more of it. Something to consider

[strokeFORever]

I'd like to see before/after bolt on/slip on mods on both then strapped to the Dyno

[johndeere]

@Busted Knuckle Films between the pro r and turbo r does one seem any quieter in the cab/cabin than the other and does either one put off more heat in the cab/cabin than the other? Great video

[UncleManuel]

And the version for pirates is called "Pro 😂😁😜

[jwezzy]

For in the $40, 000’s the pro r’s can’t even come with bead-locks, high clearance trailing arms, or did they beef up the tie rods or obviously the ball joints from so many breaking.I bought my 21 turbo s dynamix for $26, 000 for the unit, which was pretty much the most expensive machine you could get at the time, now the pro r cost in the $40, 000’s. Don’t know how people justify the cost of the machine when the motor is almost the same as a slingshot and they don’t cost $40, 000 lol

[johnmcginnis]

Which one do you prefer to hill Kill and rock crawl?

[shootergo]

Was looking for video that compared these two and this came up first. Quickly realized that this was sponsored, or the Polaris guy you borrowed from said don't talk crap on the Pro R. These two trims of machines cannot ever be compared at a only $7, 000 price difference, this difference is a couple thousand more min. I need to find a true $7, 000 difference comparison. Turbo R Ultimate vs Pro R Ultimate that what we need.

[Tysmopars]

I’m definitely voting for the ProR the more options on the Fwd are awesome
