The Yamaha Rhino, introduced back in 2003, is already a legend in the world of recreational utility vehicles and now, five years on from the first Rhino 660, Yamaha has released the new improved Yamaha Rhino 700 which brings the very latest technology into the Rhino line up. A larger 686cc engine based on the Raptor design offers increased power output over earlier Rhino models. Also for 2008, all Yamaha Rhino utility vehicles now come equipped with doors and additional passenger handholds.
A new Mikuni fuel injection system helps to ensure more precise air/fuel ratios throughout changes in temperature, altitude, and atmospheric conditions. The Yamaha Rhino 700 fuel injection system incorporates a Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). In addition, a new airbox design puts the air filter under the hood and reduces intake noise in the cab area. The new location of the air filter is also designed to draw in cleaner air and reduce the amount of cleaning required of the foam filter element. Other improvements on the Yamaha Rhino 700 include: 4 wheel disc brakes, new parking brake design, sport style steering wheel, cup holders, and new CV joint protectors. Another key improvement over the 660 model is that reverse is now geared lower to help ensure that the Rhino 700 has plenty of torque for backing out of difficult situations.
The Yamaha Rhino range continues to be the standard by which other utility vehicles are measured.
