Kawasaki’s wide range of MULE models mean that there is a MULE for every job, no matter how big or how small. Smaller than the full-sized PRO Series models, and larger than the compact MULE SX models, the midsize PRO-MX lineup complements the more work-focused MULE PRO Series, giving customers another capable choice for a farm, country property and or a work site. Strong engine performance from the fuel-injected 695cc single cylinder engine is backed by Kawasaki’s trademark durability, and complemented by rugged no-nonsense styling inspired by the MULE PRO Series flagship models. Compared to the SX Series models, the PRO-MX models offer a higher top speed, and a wider tread and longer wheelbase, making them ideal mid-size partners for both work and outdoor pursuits.
Falling neatly in between the sizes of the three-seater MULE PRO-FX and compact MULE SX, the new MULE PRO-MX is ideally sized for those who feel that a full-sized UV is just too big, and that a compact does not offer sufficient room or capacity. Measuring 2,795 mm long and 1,525 mm wide, with a 2,005 mm wheelbase, the PRO-MX’s mid-size package offers mobility and manoeuvrability that facilitate negotiating tight trails, while capably providing the carrying performance to make chores a breeze, or haul gear for a weekend in the Great Outdoors.
Complementing ample shoulder, knee and legroom for two adults, the bench seat features contoured seating for both driver and passenger, contributing to the PRO-MX’s superb comfort.
A multi-function display is built into the dash. Features include: driving mode (2WD/4WD) indicator, digital speedometer, digital fuel gauge, clock, odometer, dual trip meters, hour meter, differential indicator lamp, engine check lamp, EPS warning lamp, water temperature warning lamp, seatbelt warning lamp, parking indicator lamp, reverse indicator lamp and neutral indicator lamp.
Kawasaki’s high-grade electric power steering (EPS) system is speed sensitive, offering light steering at low speed, while reducing assistance as vehicle speed increases to tighten up the steering. It also enhances ride comfort and control by acting as damping system, reducing bump steer and kickback to the steering wheel caused by shocks to the wheels.
With 9.1 litres of storage space under the front hood, 5.3 litres of under-seat storage, a lockable glovebox and numerous pockets in the dashboard, the PRO-MX offers ample storage for small items.
The MULE PRO-MX is equipped with 25” tyres on 12” Special Edition cast alumiunium rims. The large 25” radial tyres provide great off-road traction, ensure ample ground clearance and complement the rugged styling.
The Mule Pro-MX Special Edition includes cast aluminium rims and a 1,361kg roller fairlead winch, along with premium special edition colour and graphics to set it apart from the standard Pro-MX.
Electrically “selectable” 2WD/4WD and dual-mode rear differential system allow easy changing between drive systems to suit changing terrain and applications. Flipping the switches causes the systems to be engaged instantly, ensuring the rider has full control of when 4WD or the rear differential lock is activated. Dual-mode rear differential provides maximum traction when in locked mode and minimises ground disturbance when unlocked.
Like the MULE PRO Series flagship models, the PRO-MX comes standard with doors, offering a level of mud protection while facilitating getting in and out of the vehicle.
