What Is an ATV?

We’ll start with the absolute basics. An all terrain ATV is a four-wheeled machine, ridden straddle-style like a motorbike with handlebars for steering. ATVs are used chiefly as recreational vehicles for off-roading, or heading out over difficult terrain, whether that’s out in the woods, across sand dunes or through creeks and slick mud. Their compact size, agility, and speed make them fun on the track too, as well as trail riding.

Four wheelers are durable and sturdy machines and their design gives them a lot of stability, although there is always a risk that they will roll over. That’s why it’s important for any ATV rider to protect themselves by wearing the right safety gear. Pants, boots, gloves and long sleeves will keep you reasonably protected from bumps and scrapes, while a well-fitting helmet made for extreme riding conditions is paramount to your safety. Bear in mind that your ATV is likely only capable of handling one rider, so if you need an additional seat, let your dealer know that when you’re shopping around.

What All Can It Do?

The market has a wide range of ATV models that have been built to suit a range of purposes. However, most quads fall within two broad categories: recreational ATVs and utility ATVs. As mentioned above, recreational four wheelers are great for off-roading and trails. Sport ATVs are one subset of this, offering increased speed and more agile handling to take curves easily while racing around the track. So if you're big on riding competitively and need an equally competitive vehicle, a sport ATV will be the perfect fit for your needs.

Utility ATVs aren’t as common as their recreationally-based cousins, but they offer you the benefit of a compact machine that has a high towing capacity. This lets you pull trailers with heavy equipment or materials around with ease, without being slowed down. Utility ATVs also have the extra grit and grind to tow, whether its the increased grip on the wheels or higher engine power. Additionally, they're a convenient mode of transportation to get from point A to point B on a work site, which can be a real difference for time-sensitive tasks or for reducing your own fatigue.

ATVs can also be used for hunting with some modifications like camouflage paint, cargo and gun racks and light bars. Whatever purpose you need it to serve, four wheelers cans be easily customized for the tradesmen, outdoorsmen, or daredevil lifestyles. Your ATV, no matter which style you get, is a useful and versatile vehicle to have on hand for many different purposes.
