Farmers weekly visited us a few weeks ago to test out the brand new Segway Snarler ATV. This is what they had to say in their write up of the new bike.
“Segway, the company of two-wheeled electric hoverboard fame, has launched a Powersports division that will build ATVs and UTVs for both work and leisure.
It has a new factory to manufacturer its sole ATV model, the pithily named Snarler AT6, as well as a two-seat Fugleman UTV that is due later this year.
The Chinese maker joins a raft of budget-friendly, Far East imports already available in the UK, but the company says it has concentrated on build quality to distinguish itself from its compatriots.
As you’d expect, the 570cc Snarler is aggressive on price. In fact, it slays the mainstream competition, with the £5,666 short-wheelbase version almost £3,000 cheaper than a Suzuki King Quad 500.
There’s a long-wheelbase option too, which adds a second seat and roughly £200 to the asking price.
