Kymco side-by-side clocks up positives
The UXV 700i from Kymco NZ presents a decent set of specifications for a side by side.
The range includes three quads, all with a durable and easy-to-use CVT drive system.
The MXU300 is an economically priced two-wheel drive quad powered by a quiet and efficient liquid cooled engine. It’s said to be tailor-made for following cows on a dairy unit or for general farm transportation; its hi/lo ratio gearbox enables it to perform well in hard going.
The larger MXU400 and MXU500 models offer a more powerful four-wheel drive option, coupled with hi/lo ratio and equipped with downhill braking.
All models have independent rear suspension for a comfortable ride and to help inspire confidence in safe operation in tough terrain.
To cater for the rapidly growing side-by-side sector, Kymco offers three new models to serve all the major market sectors.
The UXV700i LE EPS tops the range, boasting a powerful EFI liquid cooled engine.
Add to this power steering, a smooth CVT transmission and downhill braking capability, making this model an accomplished farm vehicle.
Standard equipment includes alloy wheels and a factory fitted winch.
The UXV450i and UXV450i Turf models offer a more compact machine said to be surprisingly nimble given the smaller engine size.
The bench seat, digital dash and good towing capacity should be a good fit when power is not an important requirement.
Turf models have turf tyres and an unlocking rear differential to allow tighter turns and more gentle operation, a must in turf management, tourism, construction and local body work.
All Kymco side-by-side models are available with a New Zealand-made roof, glass screen and wiper options.
