2016 YAMAHA WOLVERINE R-SPEC

$12,199+

2016 Yamaha Wolverine R-Spec is the newest model presented by this company. It is going to be a compact 4-wheel off-road sport vehicle that cannot be stopped even by the roughest terrains and extreme conditions.

The great looking Wolverine features a 708cc single-cylinder engine with dual overhead cams, which is more than enough to power it up and make it really, really aggressive on the road. This liquid-cooled four-stroke engine is connected to Yamaha’s amazing gearbox – the Ultramatic CTV that offers automatic transmission. All of this, including the cabin for two with lots of equipment and perfectly laid out controls will make you feel just like driving a car, which can make your adventures in the woods much more exciting. Also, it has Electronic Power Steering and a knob that lets you choose whether you want to lock the differential or not, so the stability and handling are absolutely guaranteed at any given moment, no matter in what kind of conditions you are driving it.

Wolverine is very comfortable, as well, since the 4-wheel independent suspension is extremely good. There are fully adjustable long-travel KYB piggyback shocks charged with nitrogen gas included and the damping feel with them is simply unbelievable. The vehicle is truly safe, since it has ventilated hydraulic disc brakes, supportive and secure high-back bucket seats, sturdy floorboards, rugged cage, three-point seat belts, et cetera. Other stuff coming with Wolverine are 26-inch steel rims, digital LCD instrumentation and maybe the most important – the cargo space that can hold up to 700 kg (about 1,500 lbs) of payload.

The 2016 Yamaha Wolverine R-Spec comes in various colors, such as Hunter Green or Steel Blue and can be yours for $12,199 if you want a non-EPS model or for $13,199, which is the price of an EPS model. It will be available from June 2015 and there totally is no reason not to get one of these if you prefer dirt and mud to tarmac. [via]
