“It’s been a great first year of having GEM vehicles as part of the Polaris stable,” said Greg Thompson, small vehicles marketing manager at Polaris Industries. “We’ve nearly doubled the number of dealers carrying GEM vehicles and have seen a 70% increase of sales orders from these dealers since the acquisition. We are confident the model-year improvements and new creative platform will continue the brand’s growth with Polaris dealers and their commercial customers.”
To coincide with the 2013 models, GEM developed a new creative platform, which includes a new logo treatment and a redesigned consumer website.
