Yamaha Rhino
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Yamaha Rhino is one of a class of off-road vehicles commonly known as "RUV", or Recreational Utility Vehicles made by the Yamaha Motor Company. They are unique from other off-road vehicles such as ATV's and Jeeps in that their size puts them in a category in between the two. The basic premise involves the chassis, engine, transmission, suspension and basic characteristics of a large utility 4x4 ATV, but with two side by side bucket seats with seat belts and a rollcage. The controls are similar to those of a golf cart, with pedals and a steering wheel rather than the handlebars of a conventional ATV.
The Rhino is the smallest of the RUV's, and some would argue the most capable off road and least utilitarian of the type.
