After making major ground in the ATV and side-by-side markets in New Zealand over the last few years, CFMOTO is branching into the youth quad market with two allnew machines – including an all-electric version.

The sports-orientated CFORCE 110 and allelectric CFORCE EV110 introduce an entry-level element to the CFMOTO ATV family, that currently comprises five models from 400 to 1000cc.

The conventional electric-start CFORCE 110 is powered by a 4.7kW single-cylinder fuel-injected engine, with styling cues from the existing CFORCE range in Baja Blue and Rocket Red.

Meanwhile, the CFORCE EV110’s motor produces 4.5kW and 40Nm of instantaneous torque – the latter comparable to the current CFORCE 525 ATV – fed by a 2.3kWh lithium-ion battery and with a top speed of 45km/h.

Finished in a striking white colour scheme, the EV110 features all round LED lighting, fiveinch LCD dash, 10-inch front and 8-inch wheel equipment. While both models include a speed limiter and a geo-fencing function – where smart devices can be used to set a range limit of up to 400 metres.

“This is a big moment for CFMOTO,” says CFMOTO Australia & New Zealand director Michael Poynton.

“Adding youth quads to the CFMOTO ATV line-up has always been on the radar. I’m delighted that it’s now coming to fruition. With CFMOTO’s ATV pedigree and extraordinary value proposition, I’m confident that both models will make a huge impact on the local market.”

Poynton says the company is particularly excited about the CFORCE EV110 with its mantle as the first electric CFMOTO to go on sale.

“It’s not only a stunning design exercise, but with a level of dynamic and sporty performance to keep the kids smiling.”

The CFORCE EV110 at $6,490 and the CFORCE 110 at $4,490, both including GST, are supported by CFMOTO’s two-year warranty.
