This 8-wheel-drive off-road vehicle is powered by a 952 cc (58 cu. In.) liquid-cooled, 3-cylinder Briggs and Stratton Daihatsu Turbo-Charged diesel engine. The engine provides 34 hp (25.3 kW) and 58 lb. ft. of torque to the Centaurmatic dual-differential two-speed transmission. It has a load capacity of up to 2,000 lb. / 907 kg, transports up to 2 people, and tow trailers with a capacity of 2,200 lb. / 998 kg.
The 8×8 Centaur is the ultimate all-terrain machine for those who require a durable, robust and dependable job site workhorse. Designed for comfort and safety, users can hit the ground running with little need to accessorize. The vehicle features a multitude of standard equipment, including ISO 5700 certified Roll Over Protection Structure, 3-point driver and passenger seat belts, integrated frame mounting locations and familiar steering and foot controls.
