Additional Notes

  • The Polaris Slingshot manual transaxle holds 2.6 liters of fluid across all listed configurations, from the base 2015-2019 model through the Slingshot R variants.
  • A transaxle combines the transmission and drive axle into a single housing, which means the 2.6-liter capacity covers both functions within one shared fluid reservoir.
  • The 50,000-mile change interval applies under normal use conditions across every listed Slingshot configuration, including both the standard and R trim levels.
  • The 2019 model year appears in two separate row entries — one covering 2015-2019 and another covering 2019-2020 — indicating a specification overlap at that year where both entries share identical capacity and interval values of 2.6 liters and 50,000 miles.
  • The Slingshot R trim, introduced in the 2019-2020 entry, carries the same 2.6-liter transaxle capacity and 50,000-mile service interval as the standard Slingshot, showing no differentiation in fluid service specs between the two trim levels.
  • At 2.6 liters, the transaxle fill volume is consistent with a service fill quantity rather than a full overhaul or dry-fill figure, as transaxle overhauls typically require additional fluid to account for passages and components not fully drained during a standard service.
