Is the WorkWagon 100 4-wheel drive? No — it has four wheels with two-wheel (rear) drive through sealed half-shafts, so there's no exposed chain to stretch or jump off. A 1,000 W (1.34 hp) brushless motor turns the rear axle.

Why rear-wheel drive
Rear drive grips best when the load sits over the back — and that's exactly where a wagon's payload goes. On a utility wagon carrying up to 1,764 lb (800 kg), the loaded rear axle is where the traction is.
Sealed half-shafts also mean no exposed chain to stretch, rust, or jump off, and no belt to slip under heavy loads. Mud and dust stay out of the drive.
Gearing and controls
- Forward and reverse, with a high/low range selector.
- Three forward speed presets — use low range and low speeds on slopes or loose ground.
- Rear disc brakes, plus a mechanical locking parking brake that holds it when you stop on a slope.
