​

IS A SLINGSHOT CAR OR MOTORCYCLE?

• The Slingshot is federally classified as a three wheeled motorcycle. Most states classify it as an Autocycle, which means that only a valid driver's license is needed to drive the vehicle.

 

ARE HELMETS REQUIRED WHEN DRIVING A SLINGSHOT?

No, helmets are not required when driving a Polaris Slingshot in Texas. The Slingshot is classified as an autocycle, and since it has seatbelts and a roll cage, helmet use is optional. However, while not legally required, we strongly recommend wearing a helmet for added safety and protection. Additionally, bring sunglasses and wear comfortable clothing for the open-air driving experience.

​

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR OR BRING FOR MY RENTAL?

We recommend wearing comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and closed-toe shoes. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, and a light jacket if temperatures may drop. You may also want to bring a phone mount, camera, or GoPro to capture your adventure. Small bags can be stored in the vehicle's storage compartments.

​

CAN I DRIVE THE SLINGSHOT IN THE RAIN?

While the Slingshot can handle light rain, we recommend checking the weather before your rental. The open-cockpit design means you'll be exposed to the elements. If severe weather is forecasted, please contact us to discuss rescheduling options. We also offer our Sensible Weather Guarantee for added protection.
