News release

The all-new Yamaha Wolverine R-Spec Side-by-Side (SxS) vehicle production is in full swing this month at Yamaha’s U.S. factory in Newnan, Georgia. Yamaha dealers are receiving units this month — just in time for spring hunting and summer off-roading seasons.

The all-new Wolverine R-Spec sets a new standard in off-road capability and class-leading comfort. It is designed and engineered for exploring extreme terrain and features an all-new nimble chassis with a compact design, look and feel. The Wolverine’s comfortable and secure cab has seating for two, and its injection-molded composite fixed-position cargo bed is both lightweight and durable for long, rough rides.

“The Wolverine R-Spec is made for hunters, explorers and off-road adventure seekers,” said Steve Nessl, Yamaha’s ATV/SxS group marketing manager. “This is a hard core off-roading, expedition worthy machine. The Wolverine’s class-leading handling and off-road capabilities will set a new standard in the SxS world. We can’t wait until people are able to get some seat time in this all-new Yamaha Side-by-Side.”

The Wolverine R-Spec features Yamaha core technologies including Ultramatic fully-automatic transmission, On-Command four-wheel drive system and Electric Power Steering. The new Wolverine R-Spec also features the most adjustable suspension in its class with ultra-long-stroke KYB nitrogen gas charged piggyback shocks.

Standard Wolverine R-Spec models feature a hard sun top and come in Steel Blue and Hunter Green. The new camo Wolverine R-Spec is the first ever SxS to feature Realtree Xtra Camo. MSRP for non-EPS models starts at $12,199 and for EPS models starts at $13,199.

Every Yamaha Wolverine R-Spec is assembled in the USA at Yamaha’s factory in Newnan, Georgia, for worldwide distribution.
