The Polaris 600 Rush and 800 Rush are high-performance snowmobiles designed for enthusiasts seeking an adrenaline-packed experience on the trails. The 600 Rush features a liquid-cooled, 599cc Liberty engine, delivering reliable power and efficiency. It is equipped with a Pro-Ride chassis, which provides a balanced and responsive ride, ensuring optimal handling and control.

Advanced features such as the PERC (Polaris Electronic Reverse Control) system offer convenience with effortless reverse capabilities. The sleds also include digital instrumentation for real-time data on speed, RPM, and other critical metrics, enhancing the rider's ability to monitor performance.

For the 2016 model year, Polaris continued to refine these snowmobiles, introducing improvements in durability and rider-focused features. The 2016 models maintain the reputation of the Rush series for rugged performance and innovative engineering, making them a popular choice among snowmobile enthusiasts seeking both reliability and excitement on the snow.
