Yamaha Unveils YXZ1000R and Wolverine Special Edition Models

Yamaha has introduced two new Special Edition models to its line of Side-by-Side vehicles. Yamaha’s YXZ1000R and Wolverine both receive new SE versions for 2016.

The new YXZ1000R SE features an all-new Silver Metallic and Blaze Red Metallic painted exterior and interior with color matched seats and A-arms, along with 14-inch true bead lock wheels. The new YXZ1000R SE is assembled at Yamaha’s factory in Newnan, Ga. and is scheduled to arrive at Yamaha dealerships in April. MSRP is $21,599.

Yamaha’s new Wolverine SE features Tactical Black and Matte Silver painted bodywork with color matched seats, under seat storage, and durable injection-molded polypropylene overfenders for increased protection from the elements. Yamaha also made the Wolverine SE tougher with full-length, full-coverage aluminum skid plate set – including the front bash plate, center, rear and side frame skids – aluminum A-arm guards, 12-inch true bead lock wheels and a new soft grip over-mold steering wheel. The new Wolverine SE starts arriving at Yamaha dealerships late this month. MSRP is $14,799.

“Yamaha’s expanding Side-by-Side line is creating all-new options for enthusiasts who appreciate quality and performance,” says Mike Martinez, Yamaha’s RV Group vice president. “These exciting new YXZ1000R and Wolverine SE models not only look great with unique painted plastics, they offer other special features our core SxS enthusiasts have been asking for.”
