A portal gear box assembly effective to lift and change the gear ratio of a wheel of an off-road vehicle includes a housing, an input gear sub-assembly, an output gear sub-assembly, and an idler gear sub-assembly effective for linking the input gear to the output gear. The input gear sub-assembly includes an input gear, the output gear sub-assembly includes an output gear, and the idler gear sub-assembly includes at least one idler gear and at least one removable adaptor effective for holding the idler gear in either a first position or a second position different from the first position. The sub-assemblies may also include bearings to facilitate movement of the gears.

A vehicle includes an engine, a continuously variable transmission including an endless belt to output a power from the engine, and a transmission to which the power from the continuously variable transmission is transmitted. If the vehicle travel speed is not smaller than a first threshold value and an accelerator opening degree is not smaller than a second threshold value, a controller determines that the continuously variable transmission is being used in a belt high-load situation. If a travel distance in the belt high-load situation is not smaller than a third threshold value, the controller determines that the endless belt is deteriorated or deterioration thereof is in an advanced stage, and a deterioration message about the endless belt is displayed on a display based on an instruction from the controller. A situation in which a speed changing ratio of the continuously variable transmission is not greater than a fourth threshold value may be determined as the belt high-load situation.

An all-terrain vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes a lateral stabilizer bar and a shock absorber. The lateral stabilizer bar further includes a main bar, two side bars and ball-pin connecting rods. The side bars are connected to two sides of the main bar respectively and bent backward relative to the main bar, ends of the side bars are disposed on a suspension assembly, the main bar is disposed at the front end of a frame and located in front of a radiator, the ends of the two side bars are connected to the ball-pin connecting rods respectively, and the ball-pin connecting rods are disposed on the upper rocker arm. The side bars and the ball-pin connecting rods of the lateral stabilizer bar are located on an inner side of the shock absorber.

An all-terrain vehicle (“ATV”) comprising a frame, a plurality of ground engaging members supporting the frame, a straddle seat coupled to the frame for supporting at least one rider, a powertrain assembly operably coupled to the ground engaging members, the powertrain assembly comprising an engine, a storage container coupled to the frame at a position rearward of the straddle seat, an exterior surface of the storage container including an indentation, and a fuel system fluidly coupled to the engine, the fuel system including a fuel tank, a fuel vapor line fluidly coupling the fuel tank to the engine, and an evaporation canister positioned along the fuel vapor line, wherein the evaporation canister is positioned within the indentation in an exterior surface of the storage container.

A power unit of a utility vehicle includes: a power source for travel of the utility vehicle; a continuously variable transmission; a reduced-speed shaft disposed parallel to a drive shaft of the power source and coaxially with a CVT input shaft of the continuously variable transmission; speed-reduction gears that transmit rotational power of the drive shaft to the reduced-speed shaft; and an electricity generator mounted on a shaft assembly including the CVT input shaft and the reduced-speed shaft. The drive shaft, the shaft assembly, the CVT input shaft, and the CVT output shaft extend in a first direction. The electricity generator is aligned with the power source in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the location of the electricity generator in the first direction overlaps with the location of the power source in the first direction.

A vehicle has an engine; a drive pulley connected to and driven by a crankshaft of the engine; a driven pulley; an output shaft connected to and driven by the driven pulley; a belt looped around the pulleys; and a cover connected to the engine. The cover and the engine define a volume therebetween. A baffle disposed in the volume separates the volume in first and second chambers. The first chamber is disposed between the baffle and the engine. The second chamber is disposed between the baffle and the cover. The pulleys are disposed in the second chamber. The baffle defines first and second apertures fluidly communicating the first chamber with the second chamber. An air inlet is fluidly connected to the first chamber. An air outlet is fluidly connected to the second chamber.

A hybrid vehicle includes an engine that drives first wheel, and a motor that drives second wheel. The hybrid vehicle includes (1) a minute speed launch support mode where the hybrid vehicle is driven only by the motor as a drive source, (2) a sudden launch support mode where the hybrid vehicle is driven by the engine and motor as the drive source, and (3) a smooth launch support mode where the hybrid vehicle is driven only by the motor as the drive source in an early stage, is driven by the engine and motor in a middle stage, and is driven only by the engine in a late stage, and if an operation amount of an acceleration instruction unit is not 0 or is substantially not 0, any one of the support modes is executed according to an operation status of the acceleration instruction unit.

A riding lawn mower comprising, a pair of rear drive wheels, a pair of front wheels, a deck positioned between the pair of front wheels and the pair of rear drive wheels, a rotatable cutting blade, and multiple battery packs removably coupled to the riding lawn mower and structured to provide power to the riding lawn mower, each battery pack graspable and removable by a user, wherein the multiple battery packs jointly provide power to the riding lawn mower.

A recreational off-highway vehicle includes side-by-side passenger and driver seats held within a chassis. The seats sit low in the chassis and are covered by a roll cage. Grab handles are positioned on the sides of the passenger seat. Select large round tubing protects the vehicle, while rectangular tubing frames the portions of the vehicle beneath body panels. The vehicle is powered by an engine rearward of the seats that is connected to a transaxle. A radiator is positioned above the engine. The vehicle is suited for rough terrain travel.
