What is a Powersports Vehicle?

A powersports vehicle is an open vehicle that's usually designed for recreational or competitive riding. Some common examples are motorcycles, ATVs, UTVs, snowmobiles, and jet skis. Unlike traditional cars and trucks, these models don't have a cabin that encloses you. Instead, they feature open-air designs or roll cages. In addition, they're engineered with powerful, performance-driven engines.

Powersports vehicles are often controlled by handlebars rather than a steering wheel, though that's not a hard-and-fast rule; UTVs, for example, usually have steering wheels.

Common Types of Powersports Vehicles

The most readily available types of powersports vehicles are motorcycles, ATVs, and UTVs. Motorcycles have two wheels, while ATVs and UTVs have four wheels. While ATVs are usually designed for one rider, UTVs feature one or two rows of side-by-side seats.

Some powersports vehicles are designed for highly specific conditions. Jet skis, for example, are the only type that can run on water. Snowmobiles use a track system and integrated skis to travel over the snow.

Other types of powersports vehicles include trikes, dune buggies, and sand rails.

With a powersports vehicle, you have the freedom to explore off the beaten path. For more information or to explore your options, visit us at 395 Motorsports. We are located in Carson City, Nevada, and we serve Reno and Lake Tahoe.
