Every outfitter in Moab talks about their fleet. New models, big horsepower numbers, bold graphics. It all starts to sound the same after the third website.
So rather than tell you our vehicles are great, here's what's actually different about the 2026 Polaris RZR lineup and why those differences matter once you're on Moab's terrain.
Three Models, Three Personalities
Our 2026 fleet includes three RZR models. Each one is built for a different kind of day on the trail.
RZR Pro R: Maximum Capability
The Pro R is the most capable UTV you can rent in Moab. 225 horsepower from a naturally aspirated engine, 29 inches of suspension travel, and 16 inches of ground clearance.
The naturally aspirated part matters in Moab. Turbocharged engines respond differently at altitude and in fine dust. The Pro R's engine delivers consistent, predictable power regardless of conditions. When you're climbing a slickrock face at 6,000 feet with red dust in the air, predictability is what keeps you confident.
This is the vehicle on our Hell's Revenge tour and Poison Spider Mesa tour. It's the one our guides choose for the most demanding trails. Cooling seat options on the Pro R make summer rides on exposed slickrock far more comfortable than what you'd get in a standard open-air UTV. Available in 2-seat and 4-seat configurations. Rentals start at $396.
RZR Pro S: The All-Arounder
The Pro S is turbocharged, 181 horsepower, with DYNAMIX active suspension that adjusts to terrain automatically. It's the most popular model in our fleet, and for good reason. It handles everything Moab throws at it while being forgiving enough for drivers who are still building confidence.
The turbo spools quickly and delivers strong mid-range power, which is where most of your driving in Moab happens. You're not drag racing on slickrock. You're climbing, descending, and navigating at speeds where responsive torque matters more than peak horsepower.
Available in 2-seat and 4-seat. Rentals start at $364.
RZR XP S 1000: Best Value
The XP S 1000 is our entry point and one of the best values in Moab for a UTV rental. 14.5 inches of ground clearance, 20 inches of usable suspension, Rockford Fosgate audio, and the same built-in navigation and Adventure Assure protection as the rest of the fleet.
For couples, first-time visitors, and anyone who wants a solid day on the trail without chasing peak performance numbers, this is the right machine. It's capable on every trail we recommend for self-guided renters. Available in 2-seat and 4-seat. Rentals start at $259.
What Every Vehicle in the Fleet Shares
Regardless of which model you choose, every 2026 RZR in our fleet includes the same core features.
Built-in navigation. Trails are preloaded into the vehicle's display. You get turn-by-turn routing, trail tips, overlook markers, and areas-of-concern alerts. No paper maps. No phone is mounted on the dashboard. The navigation system knows Moab's trail network and adjusts recommendations based on the kind of experience you're after.
Six-point harnesses. Not lap-and-shoulder belts. Full six-point racing-style harnesses that hold you securely through technical terrain. Most visitors don't realize this is an upgrade until they ride in another company's vehicle with a standard seatbelt.
Heated and cooling seats. Moab mornings are cold, even in the shoulder seasons. Heated seats take the edge off without requiring you to layer up like you're heading to a ski resort. During the summer months, select models offer cooling seats that make a 100°F afternoon feel manageable rather than miserable. It's one of those features you don't think about until you're two hours into a trail in July and your legs aren't glued to the seat.
Adventure Assure rider protection. Every rental includes driver liability coverage, $25,000 in accident medical per rider, and damage protection with a capped out-of-pocket maximum. No personal auto insurance required. $0 damage deposit option available.
2026 model year. Every vehicle is a current-year model. What you see on the website is what you sit in at the trailhead.
Which Model Should You Rent?
Rent the Pro R if: You're an experienced off-roader. You want Moab's most capable machine. You're heading to Hell's Revenge or Poison Spider on a self-guided adventure, and you want maximum suspension travel and power for technical terrain.
Rent the Pro S if: You want strong performance with more forgiveness. You're comfortable off-road but not looking for the most extreme machine available. You want DYNAMIX suspension to do some of the thinking for you.
Rent the XP S 1000 if: It's your first time in Moab. You're renting as a couple and want a great day without overspending. You're focused on scenic trails and overlooks more than technical obstacles.
All three are available for self-guided rental on our rentals page. For guided tours in the Pro R, check the Hell's Revenge and Poison Spider tour pages.
