| Features | Key Features: * Comfortable interior with automotive-type controls: A new steering wheel, left-side foot brake pedal/right-side foot accelerator pedal, center-mounted console shifter and parking brake lever, turn-to-start ignition switch, indicator lights and 12-volt accessory outlet render the Rhino totally user-friendly. * 686cc liquid-/oil-cooled, four-stroke engine and light weight add up to an excellent power-to-weight ratio and great performance. * Industry-exclusive fully automatic Ultramatic® transmission with dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive and reverse is the most advanced drive system available. Maintaining constant belt tension reduces wear, gives instant throttle response and provides industry-exclusive all-wheel downhill engine braking. * Industry-exclusive three-position On-Command® In/Out 4WD feature lets you switch between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and fully locked differential 4WD—all with the simple push of a button. * Fully independent four-wheel suspension: Double wishbones front and rear deliver 7.3 inches of wheel travel and 12.1 inches of ground clearance; five-way preload-adjustable shocks provide maximum tire contact and amazing comfort while navigating rough terrain. * Thick bucket seats and that great long-travel suspension system work together to provide the smoothest ride in the industry. New for 2008: * All-new 686cc engine puts out plenty of broadband power. New four-valve head with 9.2:1 compression bumps power and efficiency. * Electronic fuel injection ensures peak performance in nearly all conditions and elevations, along with instantaneous cold starts. * Tough, blow-molded doors keep mud, water and dirt on the trail where they belong. * New four-wheel disc brakes provide unsurpassed stopping power, and a new parking brake is super convenient. * Cool, comfortable sport-style steering wheel and new passenger grab handles. * Now with two cup holders for even greater creature comfort. * New underhood tool-free air filter is a snap to service. * CV joint protectors for long, trouble-free life. Engine: * An all-new fuel-injected 686cc engine puts out plenty of broadband power, along with reduced noise and vibration. * Aluminum cylinder with 102mm ceramic-composite lined bore reduces weight and enhances cooling and reliability. * Forged aluminum piston with increased compression means more performance and durability. * New, four-valve head with roller rocker arms reduces friction and weight. * Heavy-duty crankshaft with large pin diameters increases durability and running smoothness. * 41mm throttle body with Idle Speed Control System provides instant cold starts and great performance at nearly any altitude. * Big new radiator with cooling fan and oil cooler means more cooling capacity and durability. * All-stainless steel exhaust system with aluminum heat shields and screen-type spark arrestor lets the engine live up to its full power potential while it keeps things quiet. * New air filter design: Underhood location reduces intake noise, larger element increases service life approximately three times—and no tools are needed for maintenance. Drivetrain: * Improved Ultramatic® automatic transmission uses a larger, 150mm centrifugal clutch and six-shoe design for increased durability. Lower gear ratios provide more low-end response and smoother delivery, and a new low-ratio gear-driven reverse gives more backing-up power too. A strengthened drive belt handles the new engine’s power. * Dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive with reverse taps into more pulling power in low and more performance in high. * Console-mounted dual-range (H/L/N/R) shift lever. * Sealed drive case keeps out water and debris, and a hand-operated side cover drain lets out what little gets in. * Specially designed drive system air intake vent helps prevent overheating and keeps water and mud from entering the drive case. Chassis/Suspension: * Steel frame is lightweight and features outstanding durability with superior rigidity for superb handling. * Light, responsive rack-and-pinion steering features a fully sealed steering column and double U-jointed steering linkage for smooth operation and class-leading turning radius—even in 4WD. * 12.1-inch ground clearance delivers maximum underbelly protection while enhancing terrainability. * Low-maintenance front shaft drive features gear case and electronic servo-activated 2WD/4WD/Diff Lock via the On-Command® system. Direct rear shaft drive eliminates the U-joint for greater durability and more efficient power transfer at all rpm. * Big axles and CV joints—72.6mm joints and 21mm front axles—deal with the new engine’s power. Tough new boot CV boot covers resist tearing, and new A-arm protectors prevent debris from damaging the CV boots. * Standard center-mounted, heavy-duty 2-inch receiver-style hitch can tow over 1,200 pounds. * Stamped steel dump bed is rated to haul 400 pounds of gear, with a latch that opens from either side. * Aggressive Maxxis tires offer great traction, longer life and a comfortable ride. Additional Features: * New digital instrument panel incorporates self-diagnostic capabilities for easy troubleshooting. A new voltage meter allows easy monitoring of battery condition, and a new hourmeter keeps track of engine running hours for accurate service intervals. * Integrated, easy-to-read fuel gauge makes it easy to keep track of your fuel supply. * Large, specially designed seats are extra plush and supportive for all-day driver and passenger comfort. * Operator and passenger seat belts. * Dual 30-watt multi-reflector Krypton bulb headlights with high/low beams feature stylishly sleek cat-eye design; dual 5-watt/21-watt tail/brake lights. * Large, 7.9-gallon fuel tank for long rides. * Maintenance-free battery provides power, even in cold weather. * Built in Newnan, GA, USA. |
