“What are the biggest differences between the Slingshot R and the base Slingshot model?”

Rusty assistant avatar

The biggest differences between the 2022 Polaris Slingshot R and base model are:

Performance & Power:

  • R model: 203 horsepower vs Base: 178 horsepower (25 HP increase = 14% more power)
  • This gives the R noticeably quicker acceleration and higher top speed

Braking System:

  • R gets premium Brembo front brakes vs standard brakes on the base model
  • Better stopping power and fade resistance for spirited driving

Technology & Infotainment:

  • R: 7-inch RIDE COMMAND touchscreen with Apple CarPlay
  • Base: 4.3-inch basic display without smartphone integration
  • R also gets Rockford Fosgate 100-watt premium audio vs standard system

Transmission & Controls:

  • R’s AutoDrive automatic comes with paddle shifters for manual control
  • Base AutoDrive doesn’t have paddle shifters

Wheels & Styling:

  • R gets lightweight forged wheels vs cast wheels on base
  • R includes LED accent lighting and premium sport seats

The R model essentially packages all the performance and tech upgrades into one top-tier trim, making it the enthusiast’s choice if you want the full Slingshot experience. The extra 25 HP and Brembo brakes alone make a significant difference in how the vehicle drives.
