Introduction
Across recent years, courtesy of an explosion in people enjoying outdoor recreational sports, more rural farming, and growing levels of industrial use, the rear-engined vehicle, also known as a recreational utility vehicle (RUV) or a Utility Terrain Vehicle (UTV) has emerged as an increasingly popular choice. The fact that both farm and backcountry users seek similar characteristics of power, durability, and comfort from their craft delivers considerable synergies in terms of design and also helps to explain why so many consumers benefit too.
