Spartanburg, SC (6/30/200
- Using its first Annual Dealer Meeting as a launching pad, KYMCO USA has brought to market two attention-getting new off-road models for 2009. And even though the UXV 500 and MXU 375 have flashy features to spare, they also are designed to appeal directly to today’s customer — someone who is more closely considering the pocketbook when purchasing a new ATV or UTV.
Priced right with a base MSRP just under $8,000 the UXV 500 utility vehicle is perfect for the farm, job site or any recreational trail riding. With more than ample interior cargo space, a 420 pound cargo bed payload, towing capacity of over 1200 pounds and 59" wide, stable stance the UXV is truly a candidate for industry leader in the 500cc side x side category.
“The UXV 500 brings the side-by-side utility everyone wants into a price range that everyone can afford,” said Bruce Ramsey, KYMCO USA Sales and Marketing VP. “When we unveiled it at our annual dealer meeting, it truly impressed the crowd! The UXV is definitely one of the best received products KYMCO has ever released.”
