If you’re on the hunt for a new powersports vehicle, you’ve come to the right place! In our article below, we’ve put together a number of helpful tips and useful information to ensure you find exactly what you’re looking for on the dealership lot. While it may take quite a bit of browsing, with our tips in mind you’re sure to find the vehicle you’ve been dreaming of in no time.

Selecting a Vehicle

“Powersports” is a pretty broad category and actually includes a variety of different vehicles for you to choose from. However, a majority of powersports vehicle buyers tend to be on the hunt for a vehicle that can handle all-terrain, including sand, dirt, mud, and snow. If this is the case for you, you’ll have your choice of three vehicles: ATVs, UTVs, and dirt bikes. However, while all of these models can handle off-road travel, each vehicle has its own unique use that you’ll need to be aware of before riding it off the lot.

Dirt bikes are a great choice for thrill seekers who are looking to reach top speeds in arenas or on local nature trails. UTVs on the other hand are better suited for labor and are designed to carry a number of passengers as well as their heavy equipment. ATVs are a great option if you’re looking for something more versatile, however, they tend to lean more toward recreation than heavy-duty use.

Budget

Before you start shopping for your new powersports vehicle, you’ll want to have a budget set to help guide you as you browse. Without a general price range already in mind, it will be much harder to narrow down your choices, and you could even end up selecting a model too far out of your price range. If you’re not careful, this could end up costing you much more in the long run or result in your model being repossessed. If you’re having trouble finding a powersports vehicle that fits both your needs and budget, we suggest searching through your dealership’s used models, or asking your salesperson about financing options.
