2026 Kawasaki Mule SX™ 4x4

The 2026 Kawasaki MULE SX™ 4x4 is a compact, two-passenger utility side-by-side designed to deliver serious work capability while remaining small enough to maneuver in tight areas. Its 401cc fuel-injected engine, selectable 2WD/4WD, locking rear differential, and 1,100-lb towing capacity make it a versatile choice for farms, ranches, hunting properties, and everyday utility work. Kawasaki also designed the SX platform to be compact enough to fit in the bed of many full-size pickup trucks.
