SPORTSMAN 400 H.O. FULL-SIZE BEST-VALUE ATV
The full-size Sportsman 400 H.O. is the best value ATV on the market. Built with the same full-size chassis as the Sportsman 500 H.O., it delivers improved ride and handling, the reliable power of a 455cc liquid-cooled engine, a great value in ATVs.
ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL WHEEL DRIVE
True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don't. Other ATVs use a limited-slip differential, engaging only three wheels.
NEW! INTEGRATED FRONT STORAGE
The most integrated storage of any ATV. The 6.5 gallon capacity lets you stow-away loads of gear and still have access to it, even with items tied to the deck.
RAISED RADIATOR PLACEMENT
Radiator is mounted 3" higher in the chassis an angled rearward to keep it out of mud and you on the trail longer.
BIG TOWING POWER
The Sportsman lives up to its Hard Working reputation with a 1,225 lb. towing capacity, so you can tow trailers loaded with material and equipment.
HIGH GROUND CLEARANCE
A full 11.25" of obstacle-clearing ground clearance lets you tackle some of the tougher terrain that comes your way.
AGGRESSIVE DESIGN WITH LOCK & RIDE
An aggressive looking body style gives the Sportsman an intimidating look and enhanced sight lines for the driver. The Lock & Ride composite front rack system and matching rear rack make it easy to carry gear.
LEGENDARY SMOOTH INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)
The Sportsman was the world's first ATV with IRS, a feature that made it as popular as it is today. Its rock-solid design has 9.5" of travel to minimize body roll and keep the ride smooth.
