Polar Grit X2 Launches Globally—But Not in the U.S. Due to Tariffs

Polar has launched the new Grit X2 multisport GPS watch globally—but notably excluded the United States, likely due to rising tariffs and trade war tensions that would inflate import costs. While the watch offers premium features like dual-band GPS, offline maps, and advanced biosensing at a lower price than the Pro model, American customers must wait for a delayed release later in 2025.
