FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
KYMCO USA Expands Utility ATV Lineup With
MXU 150 and MXU 300 Shaft Drive
Inman, SC — KYMCO USA, exclusive USA distributor of KYMCO brand scooters, ATVs and the Venox 250
motorcycle, is expanding its popular ATV lineup with two new models that build on the brand’s reputation for
utility, reliability and economy. Designed for everything from getting to that special fishing hole or hunting
and camping, to carrying equipment and tools around the farm or construction site, these updated models
give ATV customers new, expanded choices in the KYMCO line.
“The MXU 300 is our shaft drive offering for more demanding customers,” said Bruce Ramsey, KYMCO USA
Vice President Sales/Marketing. “And by replacing the current MXer with an MXU 150, we are further
meeting the needs of the growing utility ATV market.”
The KYMCO MXU 300 Shaft Drive follows in the footsteps of the MXU 250, winner of the People’s Choice
award at last year’s ATV Expo. It boasts a more powerful 270cc, 4-stroke, liquid cooled, SOHC engine,
rock-solid shaft drive, and a smooth-shifting CVT automatic transmission. The 300 SD has the same
package of features that has made the KYMCO MXU so popular, including a backlit digital dash, heavy-duty
front and rear equipment racks, front brush guard, dual A-arm suspension, and disc brakes. Larger Kenda
Pathfinder tires — 22x10-10 rear, 22x7-10 front — give this larger KYMCO a substantial 8.25-inch average
ground clearance. The KYMCO MXU 300 SD shifter has positive positions for neutral, reverse, and a
high/low forward gear. Rugged as the back woods, it is supported by a One-Year Limited Factory Warranty.
The new MXU 150 is economy-minded but built KYMCO-tough — and it comes loaded with the same list of
hot utility features in a slightly smaller package. The standard MXU 150 includes multi-purpose racks, a
forward/neutral/reverse CVT transmission and all-digital dash (clock, mph, trip, fuel, and odometer). Power
is provided by KYMCO’s reliable 149cc air-cooled engine, complete with electric start and kick-start backup.
Like its bigger brothers, the MXU 150 has a 1 Year Limited Factory Warranty, C.A.R.B. Certification, and a
Forest Service approved spark arrestor.
