The Kubota RTV500 utility vehicle is very popular. It is the smallest and less “cool” version of Kubota RTV 900 and Kubota RTV1100 utility vehicles. This UTV is propelled by a GZ460F-E3-UV diesel engine designed and manufactured by Kubota. It is a 4-stroke engine and 2 cylinders that provides the RTV 500 for a maximum power of 15. 8 hp. The engine avoids overheating by means of a water cooling system. The RTV 500 fuel tank has a maximum capacity of 20 liters (5. 3 gallons) of diesel. The variable hydrostatic transmission of this UTV provides infinite speeds in 2 ranges of marches (a high gear range and a low gear range). It can reach a maximum speed of 40 km/h when long marches are used.
Kubota RTV 500 brakes are dry disc brakes that easily control the speed even in wet and wet conditions. Instead of using assisted direction as in other models of the Kubota RTV range, RTV 500 uses a manual piñón and zipper management system.
The Kubota RTV500 has an independent Mac Pherso n-type suspension on the front wheels, while in the rear wheels it has a mult i-link sem i-independent suspension. Including the load platform, the RTV 500 measures 2. 69 m long and 1. 39 m wide. The total volume of the loading bed is 0. 25 cubic meters (9 cubic feet). The maximum weight that can be added to the load platform is 430 kg, while the maximum towing capacity is 500 kg. There are also numerous accessories available for the Kubota RTV 500, including a front blade, several lights, an acoustic warning to alert people behind you who are going back, a towing and, of course, the option of a cabin, which can be very useful in the winter months. If you decide not to add a cabin to your RTV500, you will still have the antivuelco cage (Rops) to help protect in case the machine turns during the operation.
