what is a utv vehicle

A UTV, or utility task vehicle, is a type of off-road vehicle that is built and used more for work than recreation. They are larger and more powerful than ATVs, and are designed to haul equipment and supplies in locations that make using a truck impractical or impossible. UTVs have a minimum of two seats positioned side by side and enclosed within a roll cage structure, and have a minimum of four wheels). They are operated by foot controls and a steering wheel, and can have more wheels for specialized purposes. UTVs are faster and more powerful than ATVs, but not as nimble. They typically have a longer wheelbase and are wider than ATVs, which makes them more stable. UTVs can accommodate two to six passengers, and safety features like seat belts come standard. They are built with lots of storage space and have more safety features than ATVs. UTVs can be used for a variety of purposes, including hauling feed, hay, and supplies on farms, and are becoming more popular in powersports and off-road racing.
