Should You Buy an ATV or UTV?

While ATVs and UTVs are often compared to each other, these two vehicles are actually very different. Aside from their ability to travel all-terrain, these models don’t have much in common at all and tend to be popular among very different clientele. To discover which of these two off-roading vehicles is the best choice for you, we recommend checking out our advice below.

Ideal ATV Buyer

If you’re looking to put a bit of thrill back into your life, an ATV is the perfect model! Agile, powerful, and able to tackle any terrain you throw its way, these vehicles are an adrenaline junkie's dream. However, these models can’t do much more outside of recreational activities, as they don’t have the space to support extra passengers, carry equipment, or perform anything aside from some light-duty maintenance tasks. 

Ideal UTV Buyer

UTVs are the perfect vehicle for the working man! No matter how difficult the task at hand, you can rely on your sturdy UTV to deliver materials, carry equipment, and transport workers from worksite to worksite. Like ATVs, UTVs can handle any terrain that comes their way. However, these models aren’t nearly as small or agile as ATVs, meaning they'll have difficulty squeezing into tight spaces, and won’t be able to perform anything aside from very basic recreational activities.
