Introducing
the Suzuki KingQuad 450. That's right, we took
all the award-winning features of the KingQuad
700 and brought it to the 450 class. Now you
can get all the features of Suzuki's flagship
ATV, but in a package that offers the best value
in its class. Suzuki brings all the valuable
features to the class: styling, engine performance,
electronic fuel injection, independent rear
suspension, locking front differential and a
host of other valuable features mean the KingQuad
450 leads its class in value and performance.
The KingQuad lineage is important
to Suzuki and it is important that the new KingQuad
450 builds on the storied name. When the original
KingQuad was introduced to the world in 1991,
it was a revolutionary ATV. Revolutionary is
a strong word but history has judged it to be
true.
At a time when solid rear axles
were commonplace, Suzuki brought independent
rear suspension and a locking front differential
to the ATV world. At a time when a five speed
transmission was the lap of luxury, KingQuad
owners got the most innovative transmission
on the market. High, low and super-low ranges
gave the original KingQuad owners 15 drive options.
The original KingQuad delivered utility performance
with comfortable trail manners. The original
KingQuad established Suzuki in the ATV Market.
The KingQuad 700 solidified Suzuki's legacy
to the industry. Now the KingQuad 450 sets the
new standard for a whole class of ATVs.
