Brutus Arrives – First Polaris and Bobcat Co-Developed UTV Rolls Off Line

Those kids at Polaris never seem to rest. Whether they are buying up new electric vehicle companies or reviving an iconic motorcycle brand, it seems the big P is determined to keep getting bigger. Today we got word they have some serious traction going on with their Bobcat alliance formed back in 2009. Here’s the word from Polaris:

To celebrate the launch of the first Bobcat and Polaris co-developed commercial utility vehicles, Bobcat Executives Richard Goldsbury, Mike Ballweber, Chuck Krause and Brad Claus joined Polaris Executives Bennett Morgan, David Longren and Marc Tullemans, at Polaris’ assembly plant in Milford, Iowa to see the first vehicles roll off the assembly line. The vehicles, branded as Bobcat 3600 and 3650, and Polaris BRUTUS™ models, are the outcome of a strategic alliance formed in 2009 between the two companies. The celebration concluded with lunch for the teams responsible for developing and assembling the new vehicles.
