RANGER 500

BEST UTV SIDE-BY-SIDE

2020 RANGER® 500 SAGE GREEN is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 245.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Bobby49 from Issue leaves me hanging I bought the Ranger 500 about 3 months ago. In the first month I noticed when I shifted into gear it didn’t always seem to actually kick into gear. I’d hit the gas and all it would do is rev the engine because it didn’t actually go into gear. I contacted the place that I bought it from and was told it’s normal and should work itself out being that it was new. Well, 3 months into it and it’s still doing it I contacted the place again and they are wanting my to charge me a diagnosis fee as well as delivery. So they gave me a machine that wasn’t working properly and now want to charge me to fix it. Annoying...

Rated 4 out of 5 by Double00 from Overall Great Bike Been having the Ranger 500, For a few months now. Overall it’s a good bike. Few minor things I did on my own like added stick stoppers to avoid rocks from getting jammed inbeween axle and transmission making a loud screeching noise. Added a back window due to the draft of the dust from having a windshield and it sucking it in. Wish it had a little more ground clearance but it’s average height for that size bike. If It could have one thing more it would need some type of inside fenders. I ride gravel roads and occasionally some mud roads. The rocks and mud get all up under seat and all over electronics on just a short ride. I find rocks is some weird places.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Max721 from Couldn't Be Happier! I did quite a bit of research and ended up purchasing this unit with a top, front & rear LED lights, & the Power steering option, along with the 3500lb cable winch. This UTV is great and has handled everything I've thrown at it from pulling downed trees from the mountainside, to hauling supplies. It is plenty fast enough for me and I use it quite often on my 40 acres of mountainside rural Virginia. The dealer was great, competitive pricing, great communication on the status of the extras and they delivered it to my home without any added fees! Highly recommend both the model & the dealer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bernie R. from As good as the full size! I went in a couple months ago to buy my first new vehicle/side by side ever. I came in with the full intention of purchasing the 570 because I am a bigger guy and need room. I test drove it and the 500, well it was $1000 cheaper honestly. I then test rode them again and found that even though the 570 was a little bigger and a little more power, I was really happy with the 500 and felt like I was not settling or just doing it to save money. I am very satisfied with my purchase, for the record I am 5'10 and at the time 315lbs(30lbs lighter now) and it is comfortable and does everything I want or need it to do and it keeps up with my buddies kawasaki mule pro crew without a problem.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tentex from Good ride I picked up my ride the end of January, I have used it nearly every day on the property. I have hauled wood, tools, cinder blocks and concrete in it. It has not failed me. I have a 6.5x12 trailer that I have moved with it and have no doubt that it will pull it loaded. Great machine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Aguyindallas from Basic and does the job! After a tough hunting season last year due to not being able to easily reach my spot, I had to find a solution fir this year and going forward. I started to check out various side by side options and narrowed down to just the simple and basic 500. It was a good value and is capable of whatever my needs are so far. I routinely fill the bed with feed bags and tools and often tow a trailer around the property. I have no issues at all and I am very happy that I’ve bought it. It’s given me a lot of freedom to access the property and not scratch up my truck. I sometimes wish I would have bought a crew for the extra space but that need in minimal. I thought that possibly the 500 might be too small of an engine and have yet to be disappointed in its performance. I went basic and it worked for me.

Rated 4 out of 5 by AFS1 from Reasonable Medium Duty Work UTV We have put our 2018 Ranger 500 through the initial paces, and found it to meet our needs as expected. We have encountered a few minor mechanical issues so far that the dealer has not yet remedied, but nothing that has made the machine non-operational (bad alignment, coolant consumption, shifting problems). We have some concerns about long term dependability, but we will continue to use the machine until it fails us. Our biggest complaint so far is that leaving the dealer in stock condition, the unit does not do much more than go from A to B. We have had to add an additional several hundred dollars worth of accessories to provide what we consider to be the minimum in storage, lighting, electrical capacity, etc. The stock bed offers no tie down points, and the interior/dash is mostly wasted space as there is no means to secure any items there either, except the very small glove compartment.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Denny G from Great buy Purchased to work around farm and for fun. Perfect size for my needs. Great engine and drivetrain. Love the turf mode for work aroun the yard. Had a small handling problem but the dealer took care of it and everything is fine. Wish accessories weren’t so expensive.
