MARIETTA, Ga., March 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yamaha Motor Corp., USA, earned ATV.com’s Adventure UTV of the Year for 2019 with the all-new Wolverine X2 Side-by-Side (SxS).
As the top off-road vehicle for outdoor adventure, the 2019 Wolverine X2 combines Proven Off-Road capability and confidence-inspiring performance in a comfortable, compact, and nimble chassis, making it the ultimate trail-exploring vehicle in tight, technical terrain.
“You can load up the cargo bed with gear, hop in with a buddy, and claw your way to the top of the mountain trail with ease,” wrote ATV.com contributor Derrek Sigler. “If you have a remote spot in your hunting property that you want to work up for a food plot, the Wolverine can get that job done, too. The ability to do it all and do it comfortably and quietly makes the 2019 Yamaha Wolverine X2 an easy pick as our ATV.com Adventure UTV of the Year.”
Purpose built for versatility in exploration, work, and play, the Wolverine X2 features a comfortable two-person cab configuration, a smooth, quiet and vibration-free 847-cc twin-cylinder engine, a 600-pound-rated dump bed, and 2,000-pound towing capacity. The all-new X2 also comes with Yamaha’s durable and reliable Ultramatic® automatic transmission, which offers an unmatched, industry-exclusive 10-year CVT belt warranty.
“The Wolverine X2 is designed for both seasoned trail-goers and first-time adventure-seekers, combining Yamaha’s industry-leading durability and reliability in a solid and agile platform,” said Steve Nessl, Yamaha’s motorsports group marketing manager. “Its Proven Off-Road design allows for the best balance of capability, comfort, and confidence in real world environment, making the Wolverine X2 the ultimate off-road package for any adventure.”
