2025 Wolverine® RMAX™4 1000 Compact LE

Powerful 999cc 2-cylinder engine

The stunning power of the 999cc, DOHC, eight-valve, parallel twin-cylinder engine delivers class-leading, ultra-smooth performance across the power band. With the red line at 8,500 rpm, aggressive and spirited riding is what this machine is all about. For complete peace of mind, our legendary durability and reliability is the hallmark of every Yamaha engine.

Three drive modes, one ultra-versatile machine

Yamaha's Chip Controlled Throttle (YCC-T) works with our Ultramatic® transmission and On-Command systems to give perfect power delivery in any situation, via its three-position D-Mode (Drive Mode) control. Choose Sports Mode for wide spaces and spirited driving, Trail Mode for a fun, relaxed ride or Crawl Mode for slow-speed technical tasks like rock crawling.

On Command system - Turf Mode

In addition to the 2WD/4WD/diff-lock modes the On Command system also has Turf Mode. Turf Mode unlocks the rear differential, offering a tighter turning radius and reduced turf damage.

Tyres designed for the toughest terrain

The chunky 14” aluminium wheels are shod with 29” Carnage tyres arranged in a "square” set-up so you only need to carry a single spare. These special radial tyres are developed specifically for the RMAX to provide precise steering character and comfortable, yet durable sidewall feel. The tread pattern design provides great traction, whatever the terrain.

Advanced, comfort-focused suspension

The heavy-duty suspension is designed to provide a great handling blend: maximum articulation in low-speed situations – a balanced feel when trail riding – and maximum bottoming resistance with a higher-speed damping feel when manoeuvring aggressively. The wide-arc A-arms paired with easily in-cabin adjustable FOX® iQS shocks provide the perfect front and rear combination.

Spacious four-person cabin

The premium quality, automotive-inspired cabin design of the Wolverine® RMAX™4 1000 Compact LE offers comfortable, secure seating for four full-sized adults with comfortable handholds and six-position seat belts for each seat. The second row is raised for excellent visibility, so everyone gets a great ride and a good view of their surroundings.

Four seats plus cargo

This is one of the most versatile machines in its class. It seats up to four adults plus cargo and features an ingenious extra storage ability. By folding and sliding the rear seats forward, the rear area can then securely transport up to 272 kg with its multiple steel tie-down points. A built in two-inch receiver is also fitted and ready to tow a full 907 kg load.

Imposing and aggressive styling

The Wolverine® RMAX™4 1000 Compact LE blends next-level capability with an imposing appearance, thanks to its eye-catching LE painted interior and exterior, LE graphics, aggressive front-end design and rugged Carnage tyres. The LED headlights and "evil eye" marker lights add even more to its distinctive looks, while the LED taillight, brake light, and reverse light provide added visibility.

Rugged front bumper

The aggressively styled and upgraded rugged front bumper design pair with a powerful WARN® VRX45 winch. Along with its striking looks come two welded steel trailering and tie-down points. An add-on brush guard and pod-light mounting brackets are also available as accessories.

Stylish and helpful interior lighting

Driving in low light conditions is a real pleasure in the Limited Edition model, which features a sophisticated interior package with floor and console lighting, easy-to-locate blue LED-lit switch controls and instruments that are also back-lit in blue. This premium-level design approach adds to the attractive ambience of the automotive-quality cockpit.

Durability you can count on

With its substantial component parts and solid build quality, this machine provides a truly confidence-inspiring ownership experience. As examples: Carbon steel front differential and rear gear case; large DAC (Double Angular Contact) wheel bearings; forged sway bar links; wide-pitch, single-stamped A-arms, and more.
