Cypress, Calif. - Yamaha Motor Corp., U.S.A., is rounding out its utility ATV line with the addition of 2013 red utility ATVs produced at its Newnan, GA, manufacturing facility. Red versions of Yamaha's popular utility ATV models should start arriving at dealers before the end of the year and include the Grizzly 700 FI EPS, Grizzly 550 FI EPS and Grizzly 450 EPS.

"Yamaha has strong demand from a variety of customer groups--including farmers and recreational users alike--for the red utility models and we've seen our dealer partners ask for them this fall," Steve Nessl, Yamaha ATV/SxS group marketing manager, said. "All of Yamaha's 4x4 ATVs now come from its U.S. manufacturing facility in Georgia, which allows the company to respond more quickly to customer demands while also streamlining distribution. It's exciting to see that process in place."

All combined, Yamaha has one of the most complete lines of the toughest, most off-road capable utility ATVs including the top selling 650-799cc class utility ATV, the Grizzly 700*. All of Yamaha's Grizzly 4x4 ATVs and Rhino Side-by-Side vehicles are produced at the Yamaha Motor Manufacturing Corporation of America (YMMC) in Newnan, GA.

*Based on Polk new U.S. ATV registrations in the 650-799cc utility segment for CYTD 2012.
