Side By Side Buyer's Research Guide

As one of the most versatile powersports vehicles around, utility terrain vehicles (UTVs), or side by sides, are a popular choice for professionals and recreational riders alike. Given that they’re much smaller and more agile than typical trucks but with a huge hauling capacity, they’re often useful around the farm, ranch and construction site. They also have the ability to go off-roading easily so you can take friends and family on a memorable adventure through nature.

But choosing a side by side can be difficult if you’re not sure what you’re looking for. This buyer’s guide by your friends at Interstate Cycles of Lake City, Florida, will get you on the right track.

Common UTV Features

When you’re shopping for side by sides, you’ll find that most of them possess several common traits. Four-wheel drive, for example, is standard, as are electronic power steering and fuel injection, both of which make the vehicle easier to drive. Where you’ll find variance is in the ground clearance, suspension travel and tire types. Think carefully about how you plan to use your side by side so you can choose a vehicle that has all the features you’ll need.

Seating Needs

It’s important to think about your comfort level when purchasing a UTV. Side by sides are generally capable of seating anywhere from two to six passengers, depending on whether they have one to three rows of seats on them. You’ll want to try out different vehicles to see what types of seating are going to be more comfortable.

Your options will either be separate bucket seats or bench-style seating. The seats also need to be adjustable to accommodate different drivers if you plan to have many people operating the UTV. Remember that riding all day long can take a toll on you if you’re not seated comfortably, so take the time to find a side by side that you feel good sitting in.

Hauling Capacity

Another aspect you’ll want to consider when side by side shopping is how much a given vehicle can haul. Even recreational riders will have cargo to carry along with their passengers. There’s often a cargo compartment at the rear of the UTV, with space between seats to stash more supplies. You’ll want to make sure whatever vehicle you choose can handle the cargo you need to carry.

If you’re going to use your side by side for professional hauling and towing on the farm or at the construction site, then you’ll need to check the hauling capacities. Compare these with the average weight of the loads you anticipate carrying. Some models of UTV are not capable of hauling much, so if you need one that’s more heavy-duty, ask a dealer to point you towards their sturdier vehicles.
