The term "All-Terrain Vehicle" or ATV in North
America (quad-bike or quad elsewhere) is a small open motorized buggies and
tricycles designed for off-road use. on low pressure tires, with
a seat that is straddled by the operator, and with handlebars
for steering control.
Although typically equipped with three or four wheels, six-wheel
models exist for specialized applications. Engine sizes of ATVs
range from 49 cc to 950 cc.
Three wheelers
Honda made the first three-wheeled ATVs in 1970..Over the next few years all manufacturers, except Suzuki,
developed high performance two-stroke engined machines to
compete against Honda's monopoly, in the market, but did not
sell as many due to the reputation already secured by Honda.
Four wheelers
Suzuki was a leader in the development of 4-wheeled ATVs. as a
recreational machine for beginners.followed by the other
manufacturesrs.
Safety issues with 3-wheel ATVs caused all manufacturers to
switch to 4-wheeled models in the late '80s, and 3-wheel models
stopped production for security reason fromn 1987 to 1997
when manufacturers started again making, and market
3-wheel models..
Models continue, today, to be divided into the sport and utility
markets. Sport models are generally small, light, two wheel
drive vehicles that accelerate quickly, have a manual
transmission . Utility models are generally bigger four-wheel drive
vehicles and have the ability to haul small loads on attached
racks or small dump beds. They may also tow small trailers.
Six wheel models often have a small dump bed, with an extra set
of wheels at the back to increase the payload capacity. They can
be either 4-wheel drive (back wheels driving only), or 6-wheel
drive.
