Per test drive, a $10 donation will be made by Polaris Slingshot
to a local food shelf or a national organization such as Feeding
America. Slingshot hopes to fund up to 250,000 meals across the
country during this campaign. To find a participating dealer and
schedule a test drive appointment, visit

“During these times, millions of Americans are struggling to put
food on the table and we are proud to be working in cooperation
with our dealers to help give back to those in need in their
community,” said Chris Sergeant, Vice President of Polaris
Slingshot. “This program proves that just a little can go a long
way to make a difference, providing an opportunity for all of us to
be superheroes.”
In addition, consumers can go online to PolarisSlingshot.com and
enter the “It’s Automatic” sweepstakes. Now through September, to
celebrate the all-new 2020 Polaris Slingshot lineup, the brand is
giving away a fully-accessorized 2020 Slingshot SL with the new
AutoDrive transmission. When visiting the webpage, consumers enter
by selecting their favorite Slingshot accessory collection then
filling out and submitting the entry form.
The remodeled 2020 Slingshot lineup, including the SL and R,
features 70% all-new vehicle content and delivers next-level
driving experiences. Taking center stage is Slingshot’s AutoDrive
transmission. With no clutch pedal or manual shifting necessary,
drivers can operate a 2020 Slingshot with AutoDrive in much the
same way they drive a standard automatic. With the majority of
people unable to operate a stick shift, the implementation of the
AutoDrive transmission takes the next step to further expand
accessibility.
Furthermore, each 2020 Slingshot packs Polaris Industries’ first
four-cylinder engine, the ProStar 2.0L, and a completely redesigned
interior – providing more comfort and convenience with a new
steering wheel, gauges, and added storage compartments.
Starting at $26,499, the SL with AutoDrive is available in Red
Pearl and Blue Steel paint colors. Pricing for the R model begins
at $30,999 for a manual and $32,699 for AutoDrive. Both R options
are available in Stealth Black and Miami Blue paint colors.
