Kubota introduces 4-passenger RTV

TORRANCE, CA — Kubota adds a transformable four-passenger model to its 4-wheel drive utility vehicle lineup with the new RTV1140CPX. This RTV features a transformation system that quickly converts from one-to-two-row seating options, allowing the operator to choose between additional passenger capacity or best-in-class cargo space, depending on the task at hand. The rail system is mounted on the OSHA-compliant roll-over protection structure (ROPS) to allow easy and seamless transitions when converting from the one- to-two row seating options.
With the RTV1140CPX's three-step conversion, operators no longer have to choose between expanded cargo space and a four-passenger utility vehicle. Retractable seatbelts and a hydraulic lift bed, functional in both seating modes, come standard on all RTV1140CPX models. When additional cargo space is needed, operators simply follow the three-step conversion:
- Unlatch cargo screen, slide forward and secure
- Flip up the rear seat and open front-quarter cargo box sides
- Unlatch front wall of cargo box, flip into place and secure
The RTV1140CPX 4-wheel drive utility vehicle is powered by a three-cylinder Kubota diesel engine with 24.8-hp, 4-wheel wet disc brakes and hydraulic power steering. It also features a new VHT Plus transmission that delivers easier gear-shifting and smoother dynamic braking. Maximum cargo load is 1,102 lbs., with a towing capacity of 1,300 lbs. The new RTV is offered in Kubota Orange and Realtree Hardwoods Camouflage models.
