Polaris’s Latest UTV Wears a Unique Name
It’s all new but looks a little familiar.
Taylor-Dunn is expanding its utility vehicle offerings with the company’s first co-produced vehicle with Polaris. The new G-100 is available at select Taylor-Dunn dealers beginning by the end of May.
If you don’t think you know Taylor-Dunn, you do. They’ve been making industrial and commercial vehicles for over 60 years and offer more than 60 standard models. From micro-trucks to hospitality people haulers, warehouse material movers to those ground control vehicles and luggage carts you see cruising down the tarmac at airports. You may not always notice them, but you’ve surely encountered them.
For their latest workhorse, they went to the ATV industry giant Polaris to insure all the right boxes were being checked. The G-100 has a 1,000 lb. payload and 1,500 lb. towing capacity, and an 8.8 gallon fuel tank. What’s especially slick is that while this may be a Taylor-Dunn machine, it accepts almost all Polaris Lock & Ride accessories, allowing users to customize the vehicle to meet the demands of any job.
The G-100 UTV boasts a proven liquid-cooled, Electronic Fuel Injected Polaris Pro-Star 32 horsepower gasoline motor, with plenty of power and torque for hauling and towing goods. Also standard on the G-100 is a locking differential, MacPherson Strut front suspension with 9-inches of travel and dual a-arm independent rear suspension with 10-inches of travel. Taylor-Dunn backs the new vehicle with a 2-year factory warranty.
This machine puts safety first with a standard Roll Over Protection System (ROPS) cage, 3-point safety belts for both driver and rider and a factory-installed polyurethane roof and windshield. Four-wheel hydraulic disk brakes allow for quick stopping power when needed. Optional accessories such as beacon lights and reverse warning alarm will increase visibility.
The G-100 is being targeted toward landscaping duties for schools and universities, parks and recreation, cemeteries and farming applications.
