A Polaris Slingshot is one of the most fun ways to see Las Vegas, and the good news is you don't need any special experience to drive one. If it's your first time, a few simple tips will have you cruising with a huge grin. Here's everything a first-timer should know.
It's easier to drive than it looks
A Slingshot has a steering wheel, pedals, and a seat belt — if you can drive a car, you can drive one. Our automatic models are point-and-go with no clutch, so there's nothing to stall. We walk you through the controls before you leave the lot, so you'll feel comfortable in minutes.
What you need to bring
Keep it simple: be 21 or older, bring a valid driver's license, a credit or debit card, and your insurance info. No motorcycle endorsement is required in Nevada. International visitors are welcome too. That's the whole list.
Dress for open-air driving
You're out in the open, so plan for it. Bring sunglasses and sunscreen for daytime, a light layer for cooler nights, and tie back long hair. Skip loose hats or scarves that can blow away. Helmets are available — just ask — and closed-toe shoes are the smart call.
Take it easy and enjoy the ride
The Slingshot pulls harder than a normal car, so ease onto the throttle for the first few minutes. Obey the speed limits — every ride has a GPS tracker, and skipping the burnouts and hard launches keeps your deposit safe. On the Strip you'll be cruising slow anyway, which is exactly where a Slingshot shines.
Plan the perfect first route
For a first ride, a slow evening cruise down Las Vegas Boulevard is unbeatable — the neon hits different with the top always down. Feeling adventurous? Red Rock Canyon is a gorgeous 20-minute drive. Book three hours, get the fourth free, and you'll have time for both.
That's it — you're ready. Bring your license, dress for the open air, and come have a blast. Call (702) 907-8477 or request a booking online and we'll get your first Slingshot ride set up.
