American Landmaster has announced the release of its 2022 EV 4X4 Lithium-Ion utility vehicle. Authorized American Landmaster dealers will have the new EV 4X4 machines available in their showrooms starting September 2022.
The all-new Landmaster EV 4×4 is built on the same chassis as the original, first-of-its-kind, EV lithium side-by-side (SxS), launched in 2021, including fully independent L-ROSS suspension, automotive grade ball joints and bushings, and weather-sealed electrical connectors. According to David Pierce, “Two years ago, we created the first-ever, purpose-built lithium-ion utility vehicle. We are also extremely excited to continue the growth of this category with our 2022 EV Lithium 4X4 lineup.”
The 2022 Landmaster EV 4X4 will continue to drive innovation in the lithium utility vehicle sector with a best-in-class 160 amp-hour power plant. It also comes with super-duty four-wheel-drive (4WD) transaxle and on-demand 4WD coupled with a rear-locking differential. The vehicle is capable of up to 65 miles on a single charge, opportunity charging for 10 minutes, 20 minutes or an hour, and can be fully recharged in less than six hours. An on-board charger, low maintenance battery and on-dash battery storage switch are all standard features designed to create a best-in-class ride experience, whether hunting, trail riding or while working with a commercial landscape crew.
EV 4×4 Lithium Specs
The standard suspension system will provide 500 pounds’ bed capacity, while the HD suspension system will provide up to 700 pounds’ bed capacity. The EV 4X4 is capable of towing up to 1,500 pounds, with a total vehicle capacity up to 1,100 pounds. Optional accessories will include a 3,000-pound electric winch, HD oversized steel cargo bed, steel-framed weather enclosure, hunting/cruising/commercial packages, and a rear cargo bed/flip seat to provide seating for up to four people.
According to Andrew Flood, director, Eastern regional sales, “The hunting community has been ready for a fully functional, lithium-powered 4WD side-by-side for a long time. We have taken our experience with the original EV 2WD, along with voice of the customer and dealer input, and created the best, dollar-for-dollar, Lithium-Ion 4X4 available.”
