Polaris wins Dakar 2026 and reinforces leadership in high-performance SSVs

Polaris once again made history in motorsports by claiming, for the third consecutive time, victory in the SSV category of the Dakar Rally 2026 — the most demanding off-road race in the world.

The triumph was achieved by the LOEB FrayMédia Motorsport team, with Brock Heger and Max Eddy Jr., who drove the Polaris RZR Pro R Rally to 1st place (P1) after more than 8,000 km of racing, including nearly 5,000 km of timed special stages, spread across 13 extremely demanding stages.

The winning model: Polaris RZR Pro R

Victory at the Dakar 2026 was achieved behind the wheel of the Polaris RZR Pro R, an SSV engineered to take on the most extreme environments on the planet.

This model stands out for:

• Ultra-robust chassis
• Long-travel suspension designed for dunes and rough terrain
• Engine and drivetrain engineered for maximum durability
• Proven performance in top-level competition

Outstanding results

In addition to the overall victory, the RZR Pro R secured:

• 1st place (P1) — Brock Heger / Max Eddy Jr.
• 3rd place (P3) — Xavier de Soultrait / Martin Bonnet
• 8th place (P8) — Johan Kristoffersson / Ola Fløene (Dakar debut)

A result that confirms Polaris’ dominance in the SSV category and the strength of its engineering.

From Dakar to real-world applications

The Dakar is widely recognised as the ultimate test for machines and teams. The same characteristics that led the RZR Pro R to victory — strength, performance and reliability — make Polaris SSVs a benchmark choice for professional applications such as:

• Agriculture
• Construction and Mining
• Oil & Gas
• Logistics operations in difficult terrain
  

Polaris models are more than competition machines — they are work tools built to perform without compromise.
