SSV SSV PARTS AND ACCESSORIES

Markets have seen an increase in sales of these vehicles, as they offer you an exciting way to get around and have fun. If you're new to leisure machines such as off-road electric vehicles, here's a quick overview of what you need to know about side-by-side vehicles.

What is a Side-by-Side Vehicle (SSV)?

An SSV is a vehicle with four wheels, a steering wheel, two front seats and seat belts. Unlike a quad, the driver and passengers are protected by a crossbar or cab, with or without a windshield. The vehicle is larger, heavier and more stable than a quad. It requires less physical training, and the driving technique is similar to that of a car. Because of their robustness, they are also popular as off-road leisure vehicles. However, they are increasingly useful as work vehicles. Essentially, the variety of models and options available means you can find the SSV that best suits your needs.

What's the difference between an SSV and an ATV?

An ATV, also known as a four-wheeler or quad, is an all-terrain vehicle with a seat and handlebars like a motorcycle. There are many comfortable ATV models with two seats. However, most are better suited to a single rider. SSVs, on the other hand, are designed to carry more people, and are driven using the steering wheel and accelerator/brake pedals rather than the handlebars. Some models have a higher payload than ATVs. This means they can pull heavier loads for those who want to transport equipment around the ranch or farm. SSVs are also faster and more powerful than ATVs, but not as agile. Their top speed is generally between 40 km/h and 80 km/h.

Why should you consider an SSV?

The SSV is halfway between a traditional all-terrain vehicle and a full-size vehicle like a truck. An SSV is just as fast and maneuverable as an ATV. However, it can carry more stuff, is more powerful and much more durable than a conventional truck. With a lower center of gravity, these vehicles have unrivalled maneuverability in difficult off-road conditions.

What types of SSV are there?

There are three main categories of SSV: utility crossovers, sport models and recreational or leisure models. Utility vehicles are designed for agricultural work, hunting and other outdoor activities. Sport models are clearly oriented towards performance and racing. Recreational crossovers enable leisure activities while supporting the working day.

The Sport model

This is the fastest-growing category in the SSV market, and for good reason. With powerful engines, innovative suspension systems and superior traction systems, Sport SSV models are designed for all the conditions on your adventure menu. Their race-proven power makes them considerably faster than their utility counterparts, and riders love to modify them with an endless array of SSV accessories.

The utility model

With key features such as high towing capacity, large loading bays for maximum storage space and winches, this class of work truck is where it all began. They are designed for heavy-duty work with increased payload and towing ability. Some are equipped with large triple seats at the front and rear to carry up to six people. They can often accommodate all kinds of additional SSV equipment, from fully enclosed cabs with windows, heating and air conditioning, to snow blowers.

The recreational model

When most people imagine an SSV, they usually confuse it with a buggy, and for good reason. With their agility and off-road prowess, these utility vehicles are practically buggies. They're made for quick family fun, and well worth the price. Ground clearance is essential for trail riding, and the recreational SSV has plenty of it. This makes it easy to tackle deep mud or rough, rocky terrain.

Where are SSVs designed to be used?

Side-by-side vehicles are designed for use in off-road environments such as :

  • Trail riding

There are many places where you can take your SSV on off-road tracks and trails to explore the countryside, whether on private or public land. Trails can be as simple as a country dirt road or involve crossing streams surrounded by mud. They can be filled with huge boulders, or some small trails 50 inches and under can take you into dense forest-type areas that are almost impossible to reach with a larger vehicle. This type of escapade can make for exciting exploration.

  • Hill climbing

One of the most fun aspects of off-roading is taking on a big, tough hill-climbing race. Unlike a race where you pit your skills and your vehicle against other people, hill climbing is just you against the mountain. It's exhilarating to watch others try to follow certain lines or paths up the hill, and then have to do it again and again. When it's your turn, the adrenalin can soar. Whether it's sand, dirt or rocks, the mountain will put your machine and your driving skills to the test.

  • Farm

Whether you're hauling supplies or plowing fields, SSVs are excellent utility options. There are many accessories you can pull behind this off-roader to get the job done on a farm. One of them is a trailer. A trailer is a very versatile tool and, behind an SSV, it can go into smaller places where a full-size tractor can't. Other attachments include mowing, seed-spreading, harrowing and raking attachments. You can even get attachments for keeping livestock safe.

  • Race track

SSV racing isn't limited to the traditional race track you might think of as an ATV rider. SSVs have their own class at some of the biggest events of the year, including the Baja 1000 and the Best In The Desert series. These two races, in particular, are long desert runs that push you and your vehicle for hours on end. Side-by-Side features major improvements in speed, handling and vehicle safety, so you can compete with the rest of the field in these big races. Other types of race can include maneuvering and jumping over various obstacles on a traditional track, or even turning on tight wooded trails.

  • Dunes

Dunes can be a fun mix of open play areas, challenging hill climbs, jumps, hikes and an overall fun camping experience. Weather conditions can create and/or alter the shape of the terrain, producing an assortment of different places to play. There are bowls to climb and jump and giant hills to challenge your machine's capacity and your riding skills.

Wherever you take your SSV, be sure to use the companion system. Always use the right SSV accessories to ensure your safety.

How can I customize my SSV?

One of the advantages of owning a side-by-side is being able to customize it to your own needs. The possibility of fitting SSV parts and aftermarket accessories is another reason why drivers prefer SSVs to ATVs.

Once you know what kind of SSV you like, you'll also start to learn about the products that will help you get the most out of every outing. Speaking of which, seat belts are standard for SSV parts. However, you can change the seats, opt for more complex harnesses. You also have the option of installing a big sound system if you want to start a party somewhere in the middle of nature.

Alternatively, if you'd like to make some modifications to your new SSV, here are some SSV parts you might like:

When it comes to modifications for SSV parts, the possibilities are endless. What's more, most of them are quick and easy to install, even if you're an SSV novice.

How do I drive a side-by-side vehicle?

SSVs are designed like automatic cars. This means that the vehicle is equipped with a standard steering wheel and two pedals (brake and accelerator). If you've already driven another vehicle, chances are you'll be able to handle an SSV without any problems. However, since most SSVs have higher ground clearance and a narrower design, their center of gravity is generally higher than most cars. This means they have a greater risk of tipping over and rolling over. It's in your interest to start slowly on flat, accessible terrain and evolve or progress to more challenging terrain as you develop experience. Going fast on one of these types of vehicle means you have less reaction time to deal with obstacles. It's therefore advisable to gradually expose yourself to more difficult terrain and speeds over time.
