Kawasaki Ridge vs Polaris Xpedition

[supersix]

How do you think the Kawasaki Ridge will stack up against the Polaris Xpedition?

Since the Kawasaki Ridge has an in-line 4-cylinder engine, I'm hoping it has more torque down low in the RPM range, resulting in a much quieter cabin. I'm not sure the suspension will be as sporty as the Xpedition, as I doubt they have a rear trailing arm suspension on the Ridge. I would say the new Ridge is going to be more similar to the new Ranger XD 1500 in power and refinement.

Iam just Hoping it's not a ONE LITER 4cylinder. 4 250cc Cylinders Might not produce the Tourqe Necessary Down low for Tough applications. I'd like to See a 1.6 liter PowerPoint with at least 125Hp.

Now that the Ranger XD 1500 opened the door to larger than 1000cc engines, I'm hoping the Ridge engine is closer to 1500cc myself.
