Theres been rumors about a Auto....And a Polaris priority engine??...They are awful late on the 2020's.......Most dealers have a boat load of 19's....And quite a few Polaris dealers have dumped the Slingshot line....My nearest dealer dumped his at the middle of last Summer......

Well they had to make some sort of changes on the slingshot. Not many people like Manual Transmission. I have heard of passenger heat complaints and other things I could deal with.

Now it would be interesting to see what improvements if any will be coming out?

As for unsold units on the lots. I am sure they will sell and closer to cost to get them off the lots.

So in 13 days we should know more. Facebook had a teaser video. Sure there be a few more before then.:xzqxz:

If they do put an Auto in they will sell more initially.....And a large number of them will be nimrods , And then there will be a lot of Slingshots in ditches...If you ever driven one in rain or damp roadways you''ll know what I'm talking about..

There are a few owners on the Slingshot forums who will Not ride in even light rain..

2 days until they reveil the 2020 Slingshot..:laugh: Still wonder if its all hyped up as they like to do.:xzqxz: They seem to do it with the Spyder too. And all that changed was the colors..:laugh:

But do expect a new engine and Automatic transmission along with some cosmetics changes.
