ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles)/Four wheel motorcycles

If you need to move quickly from one place to another on the farm, an ATV is easy and convenient. These bikes are compact and agile, allowing you to navigate through small spaces and rough terrain without hassle.

ATVs are exactly what you need to quickly check on your fence or livestock, and compared to a larger vehicle, they are also cost-effective.

Although Smith Power Equipment offers a wide range of ATVs, at the expo, they showcased the Linhai Rustler 300 Sport, Linhai Rustler M170, and Polaris Sportsman 570 EFI.

Four-wheel vehicles

A four-wheel vehicle can save you a lot of time and money on the farm. A farmer can quickly transport tools or supplies over rough terrain or through narrow roads. These vehicles can also be adapted to tow farm equipment with ease, as well as trailers for extra carrying capacity.

Compared to tractors and bakkies, four-wheel vehicles are much more cost-effective to purchase, use, and maintain. Modern four-wheel vehicles come with top-class safety features, including better suspension, brakes, and more. On top of that, they are fun to ride.
