Rumor Mill: Four-Seat Teryx Coming?

The off-road rumor mill is constantly churning and though most of it is no better than pure rubbish, once in a while something stands out from the crowd. The latest unfounded tidbit – a four-seat Kawasaki Teryx – piqued our interest .

A couple of things about this rumor intrigued us. First, we’ve seen a number of links to a “Teryx 4 Territory” stickers showing up on off-road forums lately. While we have no idea who has been creating these (Kawasaki or some enterprising UTV enthusiast), where it gets interesting is that Kawasaki seems to have tried to get a vehicle called the “Teryx 4” certified with the California Environmental Protection Agency – Air Services Board. You can see the entire certification form here – but we’ve made a screen grab for your viewing pleasure.

This document shows that the Teryx 4 will have a 749cc engine, likely the same one found in the current Teryx model. Further, it appears it will have a power steering option.

Of course, none of this guarantees anything is imminent, but it certainly gives the rumor some credence. We’ll keep you posted if we hear anything else more concrete.
