On-Command 4WD

 

Industry-exclusive three-position On-Command 4WD system lets you switch between 2WD, limited-slip 4WD and fully locked differential 4WD. Unlike competitors’ automatic 4WD systems, On-Command puts the driver in full control to make the most of available traction in various types of terrain.

The Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition features high-quality painted bodywork with a matched interior, aluminum wheels, a soft suntop, rearview center mirror, overfenders, under-seat storage, a rear grab bar and an aggressive-looking front brush guard—all topped off with unique Ranch Edition badging.

 

Responsive & Reliable Ultramatic Transmission

 

Ultramatic transmission with dual-range (Hi/Lo) drive and reverse is the most advanced drive system available. An automatic centrifugal clutch maintains constant belt tension for reduced wear, and the system features a sprag clutch for all-wheel downhill engine braking in 4WD mode and reverse. Backed by Yamaha's unmatched 10-Year Belt Warranty, owners can be confident they're driving the most trusted transmission in the industry.

 

Room for Six

 

The six-occupant Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition achieves new levels of driver and passenger comfort with a class-leading 115.6-inch wheelbase, smooth comfortable ride and best-in-class interior space. Both front and rear center seats are offset, as are the middle headrests, allowing for unmatched middle passenger comfort and convenience. All passengers have a three-point seatbelt for riding comfort, and extensive noise and vibration reduction measures for a quiet ride.

 

Roomy Cabin & Cargo Capacity

 

The chassis design includes a convenient pass-through floor for greater ease of movement, making it possible to enter and exit the vehicle from either side. The rear cargo bed is made of steel and is designed for a hefty load capacity of 600 pounds.

 

Torquey 700-Class Engine

 

The Viking VI EPS Ranch Edition comes equipped with Yamaha’s powerful 686cc engine featuring a broad, usable powerband that's perfect for working hard or playing hard. Liquid-cooling provides consistent performance, and the four-valve head with 10.0:1 compression delivers optimum torque for virtually any workload.
