Switchback Assault

Unrivaled On and Off Trail Performance

Starting at $17,999 CA MSRP

2021 600 Switchback Assault 144 is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 790.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Yoder magic from Absolutely incredible I have riden snowmobiles all my life, and read all the articles from magazines over the years. They always write as if the "new" models are insanely better than the last years model. Well going from the awesome 2018 axys swba to the 2021 matryx assault, let me tell u first hand...... It is absolutely ridiculously way better than I ever expected. It is better in everyway.... It's even warmer! 7s gauge is super clean, easy to see at night and during full sun. The new 2" track was great on trail and off trail. The new headlight is fantastic. It works incredibly well on trail and off trail.... Best 50/50 sled money can buy.... Polaris has top notch products and are currently making THE best trail sled with the vr1, THE best mountain machine with the pro rmk, and combine those and u have THE best of both worlds with the matryx assault! I would buy again in a heartbeat and most likely will!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jere716 from Amazing sled Like I Said before amazing snowmobile with one flaw the starter grinds when I try to start it. It some times takes 2 or 3 cranks. The handling and everything else is incredible and can not be compared.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Brraaad from Awesome Assault ! This snowmobile never fails to impress me with its performance and capability to maneuver its way though deep snow and rugged terrain. Polaris Assault 800 I’ve found you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Good sled Few things could be better. GPS antenna didn’t stay stuck on top of pod. Windshield mounting system with those little lock rings is cheap and not real easy to do. Should have push button start by now. Tether should be standard equipment. Little things I know. Good sled oversll

Rated 3 out of 5 by golfdgw from Not what I expected I had a terrible dealer experience and Polaris did nothing to rectify the situation. As far as the sled goes, not only did the sled arrive without shocks, it was also missing chain case fluid (found that out after 500 miles!). I am a long time Polaris sled owner and this will be my last, based on my disappointing dealership experience and quality control issues.
