Kioti Mechron Utility Vehicle.

This is the go-anywhere, do-anything Kioti Mechron Utility Vehicle (UTV). It’s ready, willing and able to take on any job you give it. The Mechron is a multi-tasker for the modern age – combining best-in-class power and build quality with rugged good looks and more than a touch of refinement for both driver and passengers.

With the Mechron, ultimate 4x4 performance comes with the territory. Thanks to 4-wheel, fully independent dual A-arm rear suspension and a wide stance, it delivers incredible stability and a super-smooth ride over the roughest terrain. And if you’re in a tight spot? The tight turning circle and rear anti-sway bar guarantee you superb cornering.

The heart of this machine is the durable, proven Kioti diesel power unit. This robust engine delivers 22HP from its three cylinders, but the rated speed of 2,800 rpm is lower than most competitors – so you benefit from better fuel economy, longer engine life and a quieter ride. When it comes to the continuously variable transmission, the equally durable gearbox delivers Hi/Lo speeds and 4WD.

• Proven 22HP diesel power unit gives you reliable performance.
• Hydraulic disc brakes all round deliver excellent safety and
  performance.
• The MacPherson Strut front suspension provides a better
  ride than any of Mechron’s competitors.
• The dual A-arm rear suspension is adjustable, so you can tune it to deliver the smoothest ride on-road, off-road, empty or
  fully-loaded.

The Mechron is a brilliantly balanced workhorse that benefits from
excellent weight distribution with a full payload. And what a payload!
The (56”) world’s widest cargo bed with 500kg capacity is unrivalled
for this class of vehicle, so you can haul more on every trip. And with the optional hydraulic tip kit, you can easily offload a heavy cargo without unnecessary hard work.

Drive a Mechron and you’ll benefit from ground clearance that’s a cut
above most competitors. The ingenious design provides 12” of ground
clearance enabling you to drive almost anywhere. An optional skid
plate is large and tough enough to protect drive shaft, gear box and
engine, while the standard plate guards the battery.

We’ve seen the quality, now it’s time to feel the comfort of the widest
3-seater on the market. The contoured bench guarantees a relaxing ride, with the pair of 2-point retractor seat belts and centre belt fitted as standard. In the cockpit, the stylish dashboard has ergonomically
designed controls for easy, relaxed driving whilst the neat and handy
storage areas add to the modern-day convenience.
