Introducing Offroad Arctic: Industry-First Aftermarket A/C for UTVs and Side-by-Sides Leads Line of Heating and Cooling Solutions

New offroad climate control line features the first-ever under-dash A/C kit for UTVs and side-by-sides

SEATTLE, Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Offroad Arctic officially launched its revolutionary line of heating and cooling solutions for UTVs and side-by-sides, including its flagship under-dash A/C kit: an industry-first in the aftermarket space. Offroad Arctic is redefining what’s possible on the trail and the job site, offering recreational off-roaders and hard-working professionals both performance and comfort.

The highly anticipated centerpiece of the launch is Offroad Arctic’s under-dash A/C system, as it’s the first-ever under-dash air conditioning unit engineered specifically for UTVs and side-by-sides. Designed to deliver powerful climate control, this patent-pending system offers up to 30% more cooling than factory-installed options and is tested under 104°F desert conditions with full solar load.

Compact, rugged and lightweight, the innovative cooling system brings true heating and air capability to select Polaris and Bobcat models, giving riders an easy and affordable way to add air conditioning to a UTV or side-by-side.

Backed by Red Dot, a trusted name in heavy-duty climate solutions for construction, agricultural and military vehicles with a 60-year reputation for high-performance heating and cooling systems, Offroad Arctic is now available to off-roaders who demand more.

“The early reception to Offroad Arctic UTV climate control systems has been staggering,” said John Beering, CEO of Red Dot. “This is clearly the future of UTV comfort: Whether you're riding in freezing temperatures or under the desert sun, Offroad Arctic heating and cooling systems will help you ride harder, work longer, and stay comfortable in extreme conditions.”
