Textron Off-Road launches more new models.

OFF-ROAD: The Havoc Backcountry comes standard with a roof and a hood rack for recreational use.

The side-by-side utility vehicle market remains active, and Textron Off-Road is filling out its line with new machines to meet more customer needs. The Havoc lineup grows to three models for 2019.

All three of the models — Havoc X, Havoc Backcountry and the base Havoc — feature a 100-horsepower, electronic fuel-injected engine, 2,000-pound towing capacity and the ability to haul up to 600 pounds in the cargo box.

The Havoc X is designed for riders who like to push machines a little harder, either at work or play. This model features Fox 2.5 Podium QS3 shocks with compression adjustment, so the driver can match the ride to the task at hand.

The Havoc Backcountry has a standard roof and a hood rack; it comes in Bright White with Orange along with Backcountry badging.

The base Havoc features that 100-hp engine and standard electronic power steering. Suspension for this machine, best focused on work around the farm, is 12.8 inches. There’s 24 cubic feet of storage in the extended cab, too, for carrying tools you might need.

WORKHORSE: The Havoc base model comes standard with power steering and 1-ton towing capacity. It also features an extended cab.
