Suzuki, the first manufacturer to produce four-wheel ATV's, has utilised its 25 years of ATV experience to produce the all-new KingQuad 500AXi 4x4.

"The all-new KingQuad 500AXi 4x4 will sell alongside the KingQuad 500AXi 4x4 Power Steering and is the latest in a long list of Suzuki farm ATVs developed to provide outstanding quality, performance and value for money," Perry Morison, General Manager, Motorcycles, Suzuki Australia said.

The KingQuad 500's 493cc, fuel-injected, 4-valve, liquid cooled, SOHC engine produces robust output throughout the rpm range, along with strong top-end power.

The electronic fuel injection system improves throttle response and fuel efficiency, whilst also delivering consistent power and improved starts.

Ready to tame any terrain, the KingQuad 500AXi 4x4 is equipped with a torque-sensing, limited-slip front differential, and a QuadMatic CVT-type automatic transmission which offers versatility and convenience.

A wide range of drive settings maximises power delivery, with the drive mode selector lever allowing riders to select between settings easily and securely.

The advanced engine braking system minimises downhill freewheeling, with the front dual hydraulic disc brakes and rear sealed multidisc braking systems combining to deliver strong and consistent stopping performance.

Independent front and rear suspension helps the KingQuad 500AXi 4x4 absorb bumps and delivers impressive manoeuvrability.

Shock absorbers at all four corners of the ATV are adjustable for five preload settings, providing maximum versatility for different loads.

Suzuki's exclusive T-shaped seat ensures rider comfort all day long, while the KingQuad 500 is also practical, with a tow hitch and sealed 12V accessory outlet and two spacious storage compartments.
