Polaris Slingshot’s New 2024 Model Year Lineup Delivers Extraordinary Driving Experiences & One-of-a-Kind On-Road Adventures
New 2024 Slingshot Lineup Represents the Ultimate Platform for Self-Expression, Introduces Thoughtful Updates & Refinements, Premium Paint & Head-Turning Graphics
Embraced by those who demand attention and appreciate its one-of-a-kind on-road adventure, the Polaris Slingshot is unlike anything else on the road. With an open cockpit, three-wheels, and bold, head-turning style, Slingshot serves as the ultimate platform for self-expression – driven by a diverse community of riders who dare to be different.
The familiar, automotive-like† driving experience makes Slingshot an exciting, approachable option for those new to powersports. In fact, 85% of new 2023 Slingshot customers had not previously owned a Polaris product. Slingshot’s wide appeal also helps the powersports leader engage a broader spectrum of audiences. In 2023, new Slingshot owners were twice as likely to be multicultural (non-white) and included 90% more women than other Polaris brands.
“We designed and developed the first Slingshot with a spirit of innovation and a drive to create something unlike anything else in the marketplace,” said Chris Sergeant, Polaris Slingshot Vice President.
“Over the past several years, it’s been incredible to grow Slingshot into a true lifestyle brand. People from all walks of life, all around the country, are experiencing the thrill of Slingshot ownership. Their Slingshot is a statement of their individuality and they’ve become part of the tight-knit Slingshot community.”
For 2024, Polaris introduces thoughtful refinements and bold, head-turning graphics across its five-model 2024 autocycle lineup, available in both manual and AutoDrive transmissions.
New Paint & Graphics
Paint color and quality are key to creating a head-turning ride. For 2024, Polaris has a wide range of premium paint options and graphics packages across its entire lineup. While paint options like Moonlight White and Jet Black provide a blank canvas for personalization and self-expression, new colors like Radar Blue Fade, Gold Rush, and Purple Lightning deliver a custom-like look straight from the factory. Adding to that, SL and SLR models receive all-new sporty graphics packages set to match the adventurous personality of its driver.
SL Wheels
Keeping with style trends, Polaris updated the SL wheels, and for 2024, all SL models will come standard with a sleek and stylish wheel design in a new midnight charcoal metallic color. For SL customers who are looking to really make a statement, the new design is available to personalize direct from the factory with an upgraded machine accent finish.
Stage 2 Audio Experience
Driving a Slingshot activates all five senses, and for Slingshot owners, the sound is just as important as the style.
New for 2024, Slingshot’s Stage 2 Audio Package has leveled up from 100-watts of in-cockpit audio to a booming 200-watts with all-new Rockford Fosgate® integrated speakers. The improved system has never sounded better, featuring new speakers built into the side kick panels within the cockpit along with an adjustment to dash tweeters to amplify sound off the vehicle’s wind deflector. Owners buying straight off the dealership floor will now have the best Stage 2 Audio Package ever offered right from the factory. The new Stage 2 Audio Package is standard on 2024 models SL and above and will be added to S models when drivers level-up with RIDE COMMAND.
Slingshot ROUSH® Edition
Back by popular demand, Polaris is reintroducing the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition. Designed at the intersection of head turning looks and performance lifestyle, the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition delivers a racetrack attitude with exclusive ROUSH® branding.
Built upon the Slingshot R platform, the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition packs the 203-horsepower ProStar engine but adds premium componentry, including Brembo® Brakes with exclusive slotted rotors, a Slingshot Excursion Top, Sparco® Pedal Covers, and an exclusive race car-inspired steering wheel with color accents. Taking stand-out style to an entirely new level, the Slingshot ROUSH® Edition features a special graphics package that enhances Slingshot’s distinctive look and performance with unmistakable ROUSH® styling and branding, including seats with an exclusive design, a special edition color-matched design for the instrument cluster, and blacked-out badging. Manual transmission options feature a ROUSH® Block “R” branding on the gear shift knob, while AutoDrive offerings are standard with Paddle Shifters.
Factory Accessories
Whether personalizing the vehicle for longer, adventurous drives with added comfort and more storage, or customizing the style and sound for a personal touch, Polaris offers a wide range of factory accessories.
Top selections include Heated and Cooled Seats, Roll Hoop Stage 3 Audio Kit by Rockford Fosgate®, hard and soft tops like the Slingshade and Excursion Top, and integrated storage bags that seamlessly fit within the Slingshot cockpit.
Utilizing the Polaris “Build Yours” digital configurator on Slingshot.Polaris.com, drivers can customize their Slingshot. After selecting the preferred model, transmission type, and paint color, drivers have an array of accessories, including Series Curated Collections for fully built out inspiration pieces, that can be digitally selected for a real-time build out. Users will experience a fully interactive 360-degree rendering of their current build, as parts and colors change throughout the build process – all while keeping a running price quote to stay within budget.
New 2024 accessories include the following:
Excursion Top Canvas Options:
Drivers choosing to add an Excursion Top to their ride can now add even more customization by selecting one of three new color options.
The Excursion Top Canvas is now offered with black, gray, and red Slingshot branding – matching or contrasting with the vehicle’s overall design.
Excursion Top Rear Panel:
The new Excursion Top Rear Panel provides a more enjoyable cockpit experience by minimizing road noise and reducing wind buffeting. The quick-release, rear smoked polycarbonate panels are compatible with models featuring rear lower roll hoop humps and Roll Hoop Stage 3 Audio Kit by Rockford Fosgate®.
200W Audio Kit by Rockford Fosgate®: While standard on 2024 SL, SLR, R and ROUSH® Edition models, the Slingshot Stage 2 Audio System by Rockford Fosgate® is available to add to 2024 S models. Owners with a 2021-2023 Slingshot can purchase the speaker-only option and upgrade the system from 100 watts to 200 watts. With the new 200W integrated speakers, drivers will experience louder and clearer sound.
Updated Style Items: Along with the new 2024 model year lineup, Slingshot is introducing more than 75 accessories with updated color options for the perfect match with the new 2024 paint colors. Updated accessories include rear fenders and decals, exterior accents, Vented Sport Hood, belt guards, front grille, Slingshade, Roll Hoop stage 3 audio, and more.

Mary Mary musical artist Erica Campbell’s daughter Zaya is following in her footsteps! A social media video featuring Zaya singing Nationwide’s iconic “On Your Side” jingle in a strong vibrato reminiscent of timeless gospel singers started a TikTok trend.
Now, Nationwide is partnering with 11-year-old Zaya for a Nationwide Jingle Challenge High School Music Contest. This contest gives U.S. high school choirs, bands, glee clubs and similar musical performance groups a chance to put their own creative mark on the Nationwide jingle and perhaps win funds to further their school’s musical program.
Teachers or music directors will upload their group’s version of the Nationwide jingle to TikTok using the #NationwideChallengeContest and tagging @nationwide in the copy/caption.
The five entries with the most likes at the end of the Contest Period will each win $5,000 to support the school music programs associated with the winning group.
“Nationwide has supported education and educators for decades,” said Ramon Jones, Nationwide’s Chief Marketing Officer. “Through programs like Prom Promise, the Golden Owl Award and many others, Nationwide has helped teachers provide an extraordinary education for students of all ages, and in turn created awareness about insurance, financial services and planning for retirement once their time in the classroom is over. The Nationwide Jingle Challenge is the latest such program.”
The Challenge runs from Nov. 28 through Dec. 13, 2023. Additional contest details are located on Nationwide’s Newsroom. Official contest rules can be found here.

Why:
World AIDS Day is an international day dedicated to raising awareness about the AIDS pandemic. Every year on December 1st, the world gathers to remember the stories of those lost, educate others about its impact, and rally to eliminate the devastating stigma associated with the disease. Each year, our community hosts a national observance in the National AIDS Memorial Grove in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. We bring leaders together from across the country for a national conversation to shine a light on the ongoing struggle to end the epidemic, recognize the progress made, and inspire hope for the future. The National AIDS Memorial is dedicated to ensure that the lives of people who died from AIDS are not forgotten and the tragic story of AIDS is known by future generations – so that never again will a community be harmed because of fear, silence, discrimination, or stigma.
