Cypress, CA (6/5/2014) -Yamaha
Motor Corp., U.S.A., announces a new utility
Side-by-Side (SxS) vehicle: the all-new 2015
Viking VI EPS six-person SxS. The extended cab
Viking VI combines Yamaha performance and durability
with the comfort and convenience of a Viking
– now with maximum headroom, legroom and shoulder
room for six occupants. Every Yamaha Viking
and Viking VI is being assembled in the U.S.A.
at Yamaha’s factory in Newnan, Georgia, for
worldwide distribution.
Similar to the three-seat Viking introduced
last summer, the new Viking VI is made for tough
off-road duty boasting Yamaha’s industry-leading
Ultramatic™ fully automatic transmission, On-Command®
four-wheel drive system, Electric Power Steering
(EPS) and Yamaha’s proven and powerful 700cc-class
engine. With 600-pounds hauling and 1,500 pounds
towing, Viking VI is made to be the toughest,
hardest working and most off-road capable six-person
SxS ever.
“Yamaha’s latest all-new Side-by-Side, the
Viking VI, is a comfortable, convenient, tough
and off-road capable vehicle, and we expect
to see it working ranches and hauling hunters
from Texas to California, Oregon to Pennsylvania
and everywhere in between,” said Steve Nessl,
Yamaha’s ATV/SxS group marketing manager. “The
Viking VI is the natural evolution of a platform
and concept that has captured awards, praise
and market share since we launched the initial
Viking last summer. Yamaha customers are excited
and dealers are primed – we’re on the gas and
expanding our SxS line today and for years to
come.”

Viking VI Comfort & Convenience |
Built on a new frame, the Viking VI chassis
features six comfortable and secure bucket seats
– each with 3-point seat belts and headrests
– set within a walk-through cab design. Similar
to the original Viking, the middle seats are
purposefully reclined five degrees providing
more shoulder room for all occupants. Dedicated
passenger handholds and foot rests add to the
comfort and long list of features that set this
vehicle apart from other vehicles in the multi-passenger,
multi-purpose segment.

The rear of the cab features three seats that can sit 3 adults comfortably
|
Viking operators will appreciate the automotive-style
driver position with simple and intuitive access
to dash-mounted controls, an adjustable driver
seat, and a full digital display panel with
speedometer, odometer, trip meters and fuel
level.
