UTVguide.net recently published an overview of some of the UTVs on the market that seat four to six people.  The multi-passenger UTV has been a recent trend in the market as the need has been identified to carry more workers, fellow hunters or recreational riders while using these vehicles.  This trend parallels what years ago occurred in the full-size pickup market when crew cabs were added, which is not surprising since in many instances UTVs are replacing full-size pickups.  Similar to some pickup trucks, some UTVs feature flexibility that allows the user to choose between more seating or more cargo space.

The multi-passenger trend is indicative of two larger trends in the UTV market as it continues to mature:  the adoption of more vehicle features that are prevalent in the automotive market and the continuing segmentation of the UTV market as product lines are built out to meet more specific sets of user needs.  These trends are one reason the UTV market will continue to grow.  As the UTV market butts up against the pickup market, the increased functionality and flexibility of UTVs will allow them to steal some slices of market share from pickup trucks while in some instances the pickup truck has moved in the opposite direction towards the creature comforts of passenger cars.   Learn more:  UTVGuide.net
