The need for a reliable, multi-task vehicle has never been greater, and the four-wheel drive MULE 4010 models as well as the rear-wheel drive MULE 4000 is built to tackle any job, anywhere. When large amounts of supplies, gravel or grain need to be moved, these MULE side x sides have the strength to haul the load while also carrying two passengers. But when the necessity for carrying cargo shifts to ferrying people, the rugged MULE 4010 Trans4x4® can quickly transform into a versatile four-seater, thanks to its Trans Cab design.The ability to change configuration, from one-row of seating to two rows without using additional tools or removing parts, is what makes the Trans4x4 one of the most versatile vehicles in its class. Yet the rugged MULE 4010 4x4 and the MULE 4000 RWD will still prove invaluable on the worksite, farm or fishing expedition.

The Kawasaki MULE 610 and 600 models are reliable, durable and efficient workhorses for the job site, farm or for fun. Offering either two- or four-wheel drive, depending on the model, these MULEs get the job done thanks to a generous cargo bed and torquey engines that won’t let you down. Available in a number of colors and with a host of Genuine Kawasaki Accessories to personalize the MULE for your exact needs, this vehicle will seem like one of the family in no time.

Having received acclaim and awards following its launch last year, the powerful and dependable Kawasaki MULE PRO-FXT™ is now available as a single-row seating variant called the MULE PRO-FX™ for the 2016 model year, giving full-size side x side customers another purchase choice. The new single-row PRO-FX gains a larger steel cargo bed, giving it the largest in its class and 20% bigger than any previous MULE, without sacrificing any of the cab’s comfort, but increasing its hauling capacity.Developed alongside the PRO-FXT, the new MULE PRO-FX shares the same engine and chassis platform, meaning it is still the fastest and most powerful MULE™ ever built, with independent suspension, powerful disc brakes, effective engine braking and optional speed-sensitive power steering.The cargo bed has a massive 1000 lb carrying capacity and is able to accommodate a full-size wooden pallet with the tailgate closed – something the competition can’t do!
