stark to make electric atv
Stark Future, with Swedish roots but headquarters and manufacturing facilities in Spain, was founded in 2019 by Anton Wass and his chief technical officer Paul Soucy after Wass made his first fortune via online motocross store 24MX. From the start, Stark’s idea was not only to compete with other electric motorcycles, but to beat combustion engine rivals on a level playing field. While rivals are still pouring money into their EV efforts with little return, Stark became profitable in 2025 and has now outlined a road map for its future, including expansion into new areas including streetbikes and ATVs.
Moto Maker SWM Launches UTV and ATVs at EICMA
Chinese outfit SWM Powersports rolled into this year’s EICMA show touting Italian roots and a new lineup of off-road UTVs and ATVs on the way. Strangely, SWM noted coming features such as a “next-generation technology platform” and “the industry’s first hybrid off-road system” that are vague and somewhat accurate. Between three languages and two PR departments on opposite sides of the world, there’s some confusion about the state of today’s powersports rigs.
Segway 2026
As for the AT10, Segway is introducing a new mud-specific version of its 97-horsepower ATV called the AT10 W MUD. The new rig builds on the existing AT10 platform with a standard 4500-pound winch, uber-aggressive tires, and a rerouted intake that’s good for up to one full meter of water wading. Or 3.28 ft of American water or mud.
Segway says the AT10 W MUD also gets beefed up electrical protection for regular submersion, as well as additional drainage measures throughout. It also sports a slightly wider 58.0-inch track for improved stability over the standard version.

Built Beyond Belief
The all-new Teryx®4 H2 and Teryx®5 H2 high-performance side x sides are designed for dune and desert domination. The 250-HP¹ 999cc in-line 4-cylinder supercharged engine is harnessed by a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a highly rigid frame complemented by long-travel suspension that helps balance the engine's massive power for maximum control. Predictable handling and confident stopping power add to the well-balanced package delivering maximum fun that can be shared with the whole family.
Supercharged 250 Horsepower
With a crazy 72 inch wide stance and over 2000lbs we might not see these on the trails. Nice to see one of the big three getting involved and possible something that is 64 inches and under Maine's 2000lb limit.
QJMotor ATVs Planned for the States
What will this mean to Prices of the big Manufactures?
QJMotor’s parent company, Zhejiang Qianjiang Motorcycle Co. Ltd., recently complied with US regulations by filing a VIN-decoding document with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This ensures it meets legal requirements for a 17-character VIN plate, needed on vehicles sold in the States, and describes what the numbers and letters in each location mean. The document also includes a massive list of 82 motorcycle and scooter models that are either already available in the US market or intended for import. It includes familiar models from Benelli—which Qianjiang bought back in 2005—as well as QJMotor, Motobi, and QJTec. And of great interest to us, the document also lists two ATVs, the QJMotor SFA 600 and SFA 1000.

With increasing prices of Polaris and Can AM could this mean a price reduction?
