While the competition does its best to play catch-up and eat into Polaris' dominance of the Side-by-Side market, the Minnesota-based manufacturer continues to push forward and change the way we think of UTVs. The latest example can be found in some patent documents we dug up for an innovative-looking four-seat Utility Side-by-Side. We don't have a name for this machine yet, but it strikes a brutish pose that looks like it could be used on the jobsite or a military base. Most notable is the cargo bed, which opens up in the cab, where long items can be housed in a center tunnel between the seats. This would seem ideal for carrying lumber, ladders, or a myriad of military tools. This UTV looks like a cargo mover above all else.  Patent documents show Polaris is working on Utility Side-by-Side with some unique features. We were fortunate enough to join more than 1500 people at the Kawasaki Dealer Show for the unveiling of the 2014 Kawasaki Teryx. Kawasaki redesigned its sport/utility two seater and we like what we see. We're hoping to get behind the wheel in the coming weeks, so stay tuned for a complete review. It seems Yamaha was making a point when it chose the location for its 2014 Yamaha Viking 700 press event – the Viking is a machine made for real working men and women. FARMBOSS II--1000cc Diesel Utility Vehicle FARMBOSS II， WINWAY bring a durable, low cost diesel UTV to market. At last an alternative to the cover priced machines from the big brands! It uses a three cylinder, 1048cc water & oil cooled DAIHATSU diesel engine which should ensure great reliability and more than enough power to carry out farm/work tasks, i.e. class leading 910 kg towing capacity & 500 kg payload. The 4 x 4 continuously variable transmission (CVT) features a high/ low gear range with selectable two or four-wheel drive. Our diesel utility vehicle is very economical (6-8L/100 km) and is capable of 60 km/h.It is a fully integrated utility vehicle for multiple applications across a range of Industries.
Sometimes we can gain a new appreciation for a particular item in our lives when we find uses for it beyond those for which it was intended. While Yamaha’s new-for-2014 Viking 700 is certainly built to withstand the rigors of working at the ranch or on the farm, there will inevitably come a time in just about every Viking’s life when concerns for towing capability and cargo capacity are thrown to the wind in favor of good old-fashioned, Hooowee!-style fun. |
