The all-terrain vehicle-Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS Ad Essay

The all-terrain vehicle-Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS ad in a sports magazine is well placed. The ad is intentionally put in the magazine targeting sport enthusiasts or anyone looking for information about the same. The ad in particular targets those who and or would like to engage in off-road races with the intention of convincing them to purchase the product for the same. The ad achieves success with its audience in various ways as described in the document (Polaris Rzr, 11).

Jargon is also part of the language used in the ad; the product is described as RZR XP 1000 EPS. The ad uses poetic devices one being analogy where performance of the product is described as â€Å"razor sharp.† Repetition is also used for emphasis in describing the product as â€Å"the all- new new 2015 Polaris† (Polaris Rzr, 11).
