CUSHMAN UTV DEBUTS AT LAMMA New class of vehicle say Ransomes
The new Cushman UTV 4x4 utility vehicle made its debut at LAMMA this week.
Manufactured by Korean company Daedong but marketed under the Cushman brand by Ransomes, the 1600XD-R combines four-wheel-drive capability with a powerful 22 hp, 1,007cc three-cylinder OHV diesel engine to handle large tasks on tough terrain.
Its performance is further enhanced by an automatic, continuously variable transmission (CVT) with low – and high-gear ratios, a user-selectable locking rear differential which can be engaged in both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive operation, four-wheel independent suspension, and exceptional hauling and towing capacity, with a maximum vehicle load of 726 kgs. The 1600XD-R is homologated as a tractor and as such can be licensed for road use in European countries. (Local legislation may apply as to how the vehicle is registered).
“With Cushman’s 110 years of experience in the field, it is extremely exciting to introduce the 1600XD-R, which brings the Cushman name and reputation for durability, quality and performance to a new class of vehicle,” said Richard Tyrrell, Product Manager at Ransomes Jacobsen, the European distributor for the Cushman brand.
