Garmin (NYSE: GRMN) has been selected by Kawasaki Motors to provide a factory-installed solution for the all-new 2024 Kawasaki RIDGE Limited side-by-side.
“It’s an honor to build on our relationship with Kawasaki. Customers will appreciate having our rugged display to give them a superior off-road experience,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of global consumer sales. 
The new side-by-side is engineered with premium components and cabin features designed for comfort and versatility for riders navigating rugged trails, the company noted. The Garmin display will provide seamless navigation and vehicle system information including engine data, alerts, rider settings and more.
Displays feature a glove-friendly, 8-inch screen with turn-by-turn trail navigation that includes OpenStreetMap (OSM) and USFS Motor Vehicle Use Maps for traversing unpaved roads and trails, the company announced. The system comes preloaded with topographic maps and satellite imagery.
Adventure-seekers can also track and keep in touch with friends on the trail through Group Ride Radio features. Meanwhile, the integrated displays also provide vehicle information such as rpm, engine temperature and more.
“Garmin technology in the RIDGE side-by-side provides our customers with premium navigation and interactivity that is second to none,” said Bob O’Brien, Kawasaki Motors Corp. U.S.A. director of marketing.
