Swincar E-Spider ATV
Part all-terrain, part arachnid, all electric. The Swincar is a French off-road vehicle with a new take on the idea of a fully independent suspension system. Each wheel is powered by its own motor and designed to flex and tilt independently, without jolting the driver or dumping him out of the cab. As one or more Swincar wheels tackles uneven terrain, a side slope, or the odd giant boulder, its human cargo remains more or less upright.
Swincar E-spiders are available with 1kW or 1.5kW motors in each of the 4 wheels, and the buyer's choice of 2- or 4-wheel drive. A 2-seater model is also in the works, as is a joystick driving option for users with reduced mobility. Nice. Now Grandma has an alternative to the Ziesel off-road driving chair.
Muchas danke to Mike P. for the Dude Product Tip.

Polaris Sportsman WV850 - Airless Tire ATV
We previously saw the RZR XP 1000, another feral vehicular pursuit by Polaris. It's more of a brutish, free-wheelin' dozer used for good times barreling along the off-roads and across jagged terrain--an ATV stallion...

If you thought nothing could beat off-roading on the weekends, imagine this: off-roading on-road during your weekly commutes and leisurely drives around the 'burbs. Jeep Germany's new Adventure Tires, on sale starting...
Quadski - Amphibious ATV
A one-person all-terrain vehicle that doubles as a personal watercraft. I don't like these studious, clinical terms for the Quadski, which is better described as a fat amphibious wad of adrenaline with a BMW engine. Gibbs'...

Patriot Campers LC79 Super Tourer
The Patriot Campers LC79 is perfect for Christmas Eve when my girlfriend starts freaking out that she forgot the fresh thyme for her stuffing - "and it has to have fresh thyme! It has to!" - and asks me to run out to...
Polaris RZR XP 1000
Even though the Polaris RZR XP 1000 is obviously a gnarly off-road beast, the first words that come to mind when I look at it are "dune buggy." What a sissy name for any legitimate form of motorized entertainment. A dune...

MAD-RAMPS
If the only reason you don't own an ATV is that you're worried it will be too complicated, too much work, or too space-consuming to load onto your truck for transport (i.e., it's not your wife, mama, or bank account telling...

Tarus 2x2 Motorcycle
The good news is the Tarus 2x2 Motorcycle costs only $1,700. The bad news is the Tarus 2x2 Motorcycle is available only in Russia. At least at printing. Its designers are looking at export options, though they warn the...

The Beast D Off-Road Scooter
Are we really at a point that we can call electric, solar-powered scooters The Beast? Daymak thinks so. Their line of (mostly) street-legal eBikes designed for off-road use all carry the formidable name. The Beast D...
