Both the MULE SX 4x4 and PRO-MX offer outstanding value for money and represent a wholly viable alternative to an ATV with their load carrying capabilities and welcome protection from the elements.

Boasting selectable 2WD and 4WD with Hi-Lo dual-range transfer case and a rear differential lock, the MULE SX 4x4 relies on a sturdy and ultra-reliable OHV 410cm3 petrol engine delivering 9.9kW (13.5 PS) of motive power.

Its 500kg towing capacity and 181kg load bed maximum are more than enough for many users while such “creature comforts” as a tilting steering wheel and Independent MacPherson strut front suspension, the SX faithfully delivers all day, every day.

Its range partner, the MULE PRO-MX cuts a real dash, not simply due to its sprightly turn of speed but, equally, an automotive styling approach redolent of a sturdy pick up truck.

The single-cylinder CVT transmission equipped 695cm3 engine delivers 32.8kW (45 PS) for year-round working in even the harshest conditions with the added benefit of electronic power steering as standard fitment.

With disc brakes both front and rear plus the luxury of double wishbone suspension at both ends, the MULE PRO-MX is both work and price friendly.

Offered in traditional Kawasaki Timberline Green, the MULE SX 4x4 and MULE PRO-MX are, for many, the default option when value, reliability and rugged build quality are required.
