Strong engine response from the fuel-injected single is backed by Kawasaki’s long established MULE performance, durability and comfort complemented by rugged no-nonsense automotive styling. The MULE PRO-MX is ideally sized for those who feel that a full-sized Utility Vehicle is just too big, yet their need is for a fully functioning and durable machine ready to work hard and for long hours.

Measuring 2,795 mm (110”) long and 1,525 mm (60”) wide, with a 2,005 mm (79”) wheelbase, the PRO-MX’s midsize package offers mobility and manoeuvrability with a commendable carrying and towing performance thanks to a tipping load bed with a 317Kg total capacity and 680Kg towing capacity. This – coupled with a short 4.2 m (13.8 ft) turning radius - makes for a formidable chassis specification.

Engine-wise the MULE PRO-MX features a reliable fuel-injected 695 cm3 single-cylinder SOHC liquid-cooled, 4-valve, fuel-injected single that pumps out 33 kW (45 PS) of power and 58 N.m of torque creating ample low-end torque for smooth, responsive power at low speed, contributing to easy throttle control and greatly facilitating slow-speed manoeuvres.

The CVT transmission is convenient and hassle free while the electrically selectable 2WD/4WD and dual-mode rear differential system allow for easy changing between drive systems to suit task and terrain. Add electronic power steering and even a tilt facility for the steering wheel to facilitate easy entry and exit to the bench seat equipped two person MULE and you have a high degree of comfort and convenience.

In terms of suspension and brakes, the MULE PRO-MX has an enviable spec-sheet with front and rear double wishbone suspension coupled with all round hydraulic disc brakes that are both powerful and responsive to driver input. With 25” tyres on 12” rims, the chunky good looks of the machine are backed up by genuine cross-country and climbing ability that is truly impressive.

Featuring quad LED headlamps, digital instrumentation, ample storage and a wide range of genuine Kawasaki accessories to choose from, the MULE PRO-MX for 2023 is most definitely ready to work and undeniably “ready for action”.
