Precision-engineered drive system optimizes acceleration, hauling, towing, and hill-climbing capabilities
The Gator™ XUV Mid-Size Crossover Series Utility Vehicles have a precision-engineered drivetrain system that fully utilizes engine power, optimizing acceleration, hauling, towing, and hill-climbing capabilities. Power is transmitted from the engine through a continuously variable clutch system to the transaxle.
Key elements of the drive system include:
Variable-speed drive
Variable-speed drive (shown on XUV590 engine) The variable-speed drive consists of two clutches and a drive belt:
- Drive clutch is attached to the engine.
- Driven clutch is attached to the transaxle.
Features include:
- Ability to creep along slowly to maneuver in tight spaces
- Standard full-clutch enclosure with a high intake and exhaust ensures a dry belt when crossing water
- High-speed fan on drive clutch provides longer belt and clutch life by keeping components cool
- TEAM® industry clutches provide high performance and longevity
How the variable-speed drive works:
- As engine speed increases, the spring-loaded drive clutch is closed by weights being forced out by centrifugal force.
- As the drive clutch closes, the belt rides up to the largest diameter of the drive clutch and forces open the driven clutch.
- With the belt running in the smallest diameter of the driven clutch, the speed being transferred to the transaxle is increased.
- The driven clutch is designed to sense varying loads (inclines, mud, etc.) and constantly adjusts drive speed upward or downward so that engine rpm remains optimal.
Four-wheel drive (4WD), transaxle, mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD), and constant-velocity (CV) shafts
XUV590 transaxle 
XUV560/XUV590 MFWD 4WD
- Selectable 4WD system with a limited slip front differential and dash-mounted electronic rocker switch

Four-wheel independent suspension provides unparalleled ride over challenging terrain and excellent handling through corners
XUV front suspension detail To complement the comfortable operation station, the XUV560 and XUV590 Series are equipped with four-wheel independent suspension. This unique suspension set-up provides an unparalleled ride over challenging terrain and excellent handling through corners.
The engineering team, in collaboration with engineering firms that consult with Formula 1®, NASCAR®, and INDYCAR® teams, built a capable suspension system for class-leading operator comfort no matter what the terrain.
Dual A-arm front suspension features include:
- Dual, wide arch A-arm design provides maximum front-wheel control, precise steering, and maximum ground clearance out to the wheel
- 203 mm (8 in.) of travel provides ample compression and wheel extension, which keep all four wheels on the ground for superior traction and vehicle control
- Adjustable coil-over shocks absorb the most demanding terrain
- Solid anti-roll bar with fully rubber isolated connecting links and pivots is tuned to provide the most agile and predictable handling
- Camber during compression to compensate for body roll and to maintain an optimal tire contact patch for improved cornering grip
- Increasing vehicle width during compression for additional stability.
- High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle and upper A-arm to support the high stresses of the shocks, constant-velocity (CV) shaft, and wheels
- Automotive-style, fully boxed and welded, high-strength steel, lower A-arms to minimize unsprung mass and maximize strength
- Maintenance-free, rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation
- CV shaft protection from sticks that may puncture the rubber boot
- Anti-dive front suspension geometry provides a solid platform for confident braking
- Optimized steering geometry using ADAMS CAR simulation to minimize steering effort and maximize terrain feedback
XUV rear suspension detail Independent rear suspension features include:

- High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle, lower A-arm, and upper link to support the high stresses of the shocks, CV shaft, and wheels with the toughness to survive impacts from boulders
- Maintenance-free rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation
Optional Fox™ Shocks are available to factory install
Exclusive aluminum-body, high-pressure monotube FOX racing shocks
- Fully adjustable spring preload for different driving styles
- High-pressure nitrogen gas is separated from the damping oil by an internal floating piston (IFP). The separation prevents aeration (frothing) and viscosity degradation of the oil which improves damping consistency and performance fade.
- Pressure and heat generation in the monotube is less than a traditional twin-tube shock, allowing for better vehicle control in aggressive conditions.
- The single aluminum shell of the monotube design allows for more efficient heat rejection and lower overall unsprung mass.
- Mounting the shaft end of the shock to the suspension arm lowers the unsprung mass of the suspension system, leading to improved suspension response.

Power steering for excellent handling characteristics and low steering effort
XUV590M with power steering The Gator™ XUV590M Utility Vehicles are equipped with rack and pinion steering with power steering. These automotive-type systems exhibit excellent handling characteristics, as well as responsive steering and low steering effort.
Automotive-type, rack-and-pinion steering features include:
Optional electric power-assist steering (EPAS) system. Features of EPAS include:
- Anti-kickback feature reduces the amount of steering unwinding when traversing difficult terrain.
- The system is speed sensing and adjusts steering effort as the speed of the vehicle changes.
- As speed increases there is less steering assist for improved road feel.
- As speed decreases steering assist increases to give lower steering efforts for improved maneuverability.
- A warning/functional light on the instrument panel provides self-diagnostics and a warning light in the situation of no assist.
- Torque sensor measures steering wheel input so the on-board computer can provide the appropriate output for various driving situations.
- Steel ball-bearings secure the steering shaft and delivers smooth, responsive operation
- Tight turn radius of 3.7 m (12.3 ft) for excellent maneuverability
- Completely sealed rack-and-pinion for long life
- Low steering ratio (lock-to-lock steering wheel rotations) provides more responsive steering and less operator input
- Shaft U-joints are phased for a smooth, uninterrupted motion of the steering wheel
- Ackerman steering design provides more responsive steering, decreases tire wear when used on hard surfaces and is turf friendly (see description below)
- Minimal bump steer eliminates unintended vehicle direction changes when traversing terrain and permits less feedback to the steering wheel (see description below)
The tire scrubbing, which also creates unwanted heat and wear in the tire, can be eliminated by turning the inside wheel at a greater angle than the outside one (Ackerman steering).
NOTE: Some competitors use parallel steering instead of Ackerman steering.
Bump steering defines the change in the forward steering angle (thus wheel position) as the suspension travels through its full motion. A large amount of angular change (5 degrees to 7 degrees) will alter the vehicle's direction and excessively move the steering wheel.
Occupant protective structure (OPS) and occupant side retention (OSR)
XUV590M S4 with OSR nets A dynamically stable vehicle starts with the architectural design; the Gator™ XUV Crossover Series has a low center of gravity, a wide stance, and balance of weight between the front and rear axles.
The combination leads to a class-leading static stability factor (SSF) and passing a multitude of dynamic stability tests.

A large amount of angular change (5 degrees to 7 degrees) will alter the vehicle's direction and excessively move the steering wheel.</p></div></div></div></div><div class="accordion2_component"><div class="accordion2_top"><div class="text-size-medium text-weight-bold">Occupant protective structure (OPS) and occupant side retention (OSR)</div><div class="accordion2_icon w-embed"><svg width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 32 32" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M25.3333 15.667V16.3336C25.3333 16.7018 25.0349 17.0003 24.6667 17.0003H17V24.667C17 25.0351 16.7015 25.3336 16.3333 25.3336H15.6667C15.2985 25.3336 15 25.0351 15 24.667V17.0003H7.3333C6.96511 17.0003 6.66663 16.7018 6.66663 16.3336V15.667C6.66663 15.2988 6.96511 15.0003 7.3333 15.0003H15V7.33365C15 6.96546 15.2985 6.66699 15.6667 6.66699H16.3333C16.7015 6.66699 17 6.96546 17 7.33365V15.0003H24.6667C25.0349 15.0003 25.3333 15.2988 25.3333 15.667Z" fill="currentColor"></path></svg></div></div><div style="width: 1118px; height: 0px;" class="accordion2_bottom"><div class="margin-bottom margin-small"><div><div class="seccion-images"> <div> <img src="https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/utility_vehicles/features_attachment/xuv_560_590/r4x000710_450x300.jpg" alt="XUV590M S4 with OSR nets"> <span class="caption">XUV590M S4 with OSR nets</span> </div> </div> <p>A dynamically stable vehicle starts with the architectural design; the Gator™ XUV Crossover Series has a low center of gravity, a wide stance, and balance of weight between the front and rear axles.</p> <p> </p> <p>The combination leads to a class-leading static stability factor (SSF) and passing a multitude of dynamic stability tests.</p> <h5>OPS</h5> <div class="seccion-images"> <div> <img src="https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/utility_vehicles/features_attachment/xuv_560_590/r4x000710_rrd_275x189_croped_1.jpg" alt="Standard OPS"> <span class="caption">Standard OPS</span> </div> </div> <p>Standard OPS with three-point seat belts and OSR nets are shown on the XUV560E.</p> <p> </p> <p>The OPS is Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) J2194 certified.</p> <h5>OSR</h5> <div class="seccion-images"> <div> <img src="https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/utility_vehicles/features_attachment/xuv_560_590/r4x000710_308x224.jpg" alt="OSR nets (available on XUV560 & XUV590)"> <span class="caption">OSR nets (available on XUV560 & XUV590)</span> </div> <div> <img src="https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/utility_vehicles/features_attachment/xuv_560_590/r2c013802_osr_doors_308x224.jpg" alt="OSR doors (compatible with all XUV590 two-passenger models)"> <span class="caption">OSR doors (compatible with all XUV590 two-passenger models)</span> </div> </div> <p>Meets American Nation Standards Institute (ANSI) B71.9 certification</p> <ul> <li>One-handed operation</li> <li>Easy entry/exit</li> <li>Great visibility</li> </ul></div></div></div></div></div>
