A UTV is a fantastic machine for covering ground fast and towing. But many of the jobs people buy one for — firewood, feed, tools, trash — are short, heavy hauls where a smaller electric wagon is cheaper, quieter, and fits more places.

Common questions
Can an electric wagon replace a UTV?
For short hauling chores, often yes. For towing, long distances, or passengers, a UTV is still the better tool.
Is an electric wagon cheaper to run?
There's no fuel or oil to buy. You charge the battery from a standard outlet.
Will it fit where a UTV won't?
It's 800 mm (31.5 in) wide, so it fits gates and aisles wider than about 32 in, which most UTVs can't use.
