The Polaris Sportsman 570 EPS SP Öhlins (2026) takes the proven Sportsman 570 platform and upgrades the ride where it matters most. With premium Öhlins suspension, Multi-Select Electronic Power Steering and Polaris’ dependable 567cc ProStar engine, this model is aimed at riders who want a smoother, more controlled machine when the terrain gets rough.
Supplied by Suffolk Mowers, the SP Öhlins trim adds practical upgrades such as the TURF differential, front brushguard, handguards and larger 26″ tyres on aluminium wheels. It remains a capable working ATV with strong towing capacity and rack storage, but the suspension package and steering upgrades make it stand out for riders covering longer distances across fields, woodland tracks or estate ground.
Premium Ride Control on the Sportsman 570 Platform
The Sportsman 570 platform is well known for reliability and everyday usability, but the Sportsman 570 EPS SP Öhlins takes the ride quality a step further. By combining the proven 567cc ProStar engine with Öhlins suspension and upgraded chassis features, this version is aimed at riders who spend long days on rough terrain and want better comfort and control.
It keeps the practical strengths that make the 570 popular with farms, estates and landowners, while adding the kind of suspension performance normally associated with more specialised machines.
Öhlins Suspension for Rough Ground Stability
The defining feature of this trim is the premium Öhlins suspension system. These high-quality shocks improve how the ATV absorbs bumps, ruts and uneven terrain, helping the machine stay planted and stable at both working and trail speeds.
Compared with the standard Sportsman 570 or the standard EPS model, the Öhlins-equipped version offers a noticeably smoother ride and improved control when travelling across rough tracks or fields. Riders covering large areas of land will also appreciate the reduction in fatigue over longer journeys.
TURF Mode for Property and Estate Work
The inclusion of a TURF differential adds an important advantage for anyone operating on maintained grass areas. When engaged, TURF mode allows the rear wheels to rotate independently when turning, helping prevent scuffing or tearing of grass surfaces.
This makes the ATV more suitable for work around estates, parkland, golf courses or landscaped areas where a conventional locked rear axle could damage the ground during tight turns.
Confident Control on Slopes and Descents
The combination of Engine Braking System (EBS) and Active Descent Control (ADC) helps maintain better control when riding downhill or when towing loads. Instead of relying entirely on the brakes, the engine helps slow the vehicle while descending slopes.
For riders working in woodland, fields or uneven terrain, this extra control makes steep sections easier to manage and reduces strain on the braking system.
Built for Work as Well as Riding
Although this trim focuses heavily on ride quality, the machine still retains the practical features that make the Sportsman 570 a dependable work ATV. The front and rear racks offer a combined capacity of 270 lb (123 kg), allowing tools, equipment or supplies to be carried when working around land or property.
A 1.25″ receiver hitch provides a towing capacity of up to 1228 lb (557 kg), making the ATV suitable for pulling small trailers, equipment or feed carts when required.
SP Trim Upgrades
The SP Öhlins trim adds several practical upgrades that improve durability and usability in real working conditions. Handguards help protect the rider’s hands from branches and debris, while the front brushguard adds protection to the machine when travelling through woodland or rough tracks.
Larger 26-inch CST tyres fitted to 14-inch aluminium wheels improve ground clearance and traction compared with the base model. A rear storage box and rack extenders also increase carrying flexibility when transporting tools or equipment.
Where This Model Fits in the Sportsman Range
Within the Sportsman 570 lineup, this version sits above the standard Sportsman 570 EPS and the Sportsman 570 EPS SP. Those machines provide excellent capability for general work and trail riding, but the Öhlins version focuses on delivering a more controlled ride over challenging terrain.
Buyers who primarily want a working ATV may find the standard EPS or SP models sufficient, while riders who prioritise comfort, suspension performance and control over long distances will appreciate the upgrades found on the Sportsman 570 EPS SP Öhlins.
