What Robbie Gordon and his team set in motion is a herculean task. People will hate regardless. There will be a lot eating crow when they start getting released. Ford has 40k Superduty’s sitting waiting on chips. It’s amazing the Speed Utv has gotten as far as it has with the fiasco’s of the last few years. I love my Pro R 4 Ultimate, it’s an amazing machine. I have no doubt the Speed Utv will be a great machine.
Great vid! Thank you for posting! Robby gave me a ride in one of the pre-production 4-seater Speed cars in March 2022 in the desert near Parker AZ. I've driven or ridden in just about every make and model of UTV on planet Earth. The Speed car's suspension is in a league of its own. No comparison. Not even close. My family currently owns a Can-Am X3 Turbo 2-seater and a Polaris Turbo S 4-seater. They are fun cars no doubt, but the Speed car is next level in every way. The Speed's suspension geometry with essentially zero track width scrub provides for an amazingly stable ride at high speeds over rough terrain. The Speed car just laughs at it and asks for more. And the geometric roll center of the Speed car is very low (as opposed to the high roll center of other brands) which greatly reduces the chance of a rollover. Plus, the Speed car's robust cage doesn't need to be swapped out. I gladly put my deposit down on a 4-seater Speed car two years ago, and I'm fine with whenever I receive it as IMO it is totally worth the wait. I hate to use a worn out phrase, but IMO the Speed car is truly a game changer. And that is good for the UTV industry as a whole.
I really can’t wait to drive one. The preproduction black car (4 maybe?) was the one I checked out in Heber utah when they came through. They’ll be selling through Karl Malone’s dealerships up there. The size of the shocks is what struck me the most, followed by the cabin layout. Pretty damn cool
@@sxsoffroad Yes indeed, the Speed shocks are massive! I picked one up at Sand Sports and I was grunting the whole time. And you're right about the cabin. It's nice and roomy. I also like that there are no ball joints anywhere. Robby went with monoball in double shear. Those spindles are super robust. And I like that Robby spun the engine around 180 degrees so that the hot exhaust manifold and hot turbo are at the rear of the engine rather than near the firewall. Good design choices!
I’m #591. I’ve seen the pre production machine and I believe it will be a great machine. Robby has been optimistic a few times and it bites him. People with orders don’t help when they go out and scream from the rooftops of social media that this will be the greatest machine ever blah blah blah. I needed extra seats this week and rented a turbo R and was very impressed. When I’m actually driving it and have some miles on it, I’ll know
I’ve been wrestling with the Pro R statement. It’s one hell of a car, practically a truck. I was speaking with an owner of a very well known UTV off road shop who has built many cars over the years and he loves his but thinks it’s limited for mixed riding. Love it for sand and desert, hates it for rocks. So really, it will all come down to the rider. I love my X3 and it’s fits me for what I ride. My biggest problem with any Polaris is interior geometry. I’m too tall
Nice to see some positivity towards the speed car I honestly think more options helps push the industry. you can see the influence speed has had on the new pro r, turbo r, and x3. Once it comes out it’ll be interesting to see how it holds up.
I don’t see why people have a hard time with it. Although it is fun to poke the bear when you do Polaris is better because this or CanAm is better because that. There was something I was thinking about today in regards to the SPEED car: there won’t be any aftermarket parts for awhile and I feel that there won’t need to be with how they built it.
@@sxsoffroad yeah it was like me getting in heated arguments with buddy’s over ford Chevy or dodge back in high school end of the day they all break down and need upgrades here or there. I do admit I still give my buddies shit about there rides breaking or getting stuck just not into doing it online lol. I agree on the parts, the speed accessory’s I put on my old xx where nice looking and fit well like the factory stuff like all the other manufacturers make for their rides which I personally tend to prefer. It Doesn’t seam like it really needs much.
The Pro R is leaps and bounds in front of the competition at this point. The speed car will be like the talon was. Delivered to late in a fast paced market.
Robbie’s problem is he has promised delivery to customers and missed that so many times. I get this stuff takes time but stop making dates you can’t hit. They act like carb and epa cert are an unexpected delay! The government is slow everyone knows that yet it sounds like they didn’t apply until summer of 22 why did they wait. The reason can am and Polaris don’t have this backlash is because they don’t take people’s money when a new car is in the idea stage. They don’t announce a new machine until it is ready for production or probably in production. When Polaris announced the pro r Robby bashed them for copying him on the shock mount on the lower arm like he invented it! In reality for Polaris to have that on the current pro r means they likely had it in engineering and on a prototype before Robby took the first deposit.

Watch this vid and drop an opinion! I’m hopeful for success on this venture.

It would have been awesome back in 2018 but things progressed too quicklyin 😊
It is already obsolete. The pro R is the new standard. My 400 hp x3 is fast but the pro r suspension is next level.

I have a feeling that design came from a small company in Texas…
Hope robby does good. But yes, making these cars right now is not easy at all.
Yes. I really want to drive one.
So is the Speed UTV going to be one year production car or there will be production for years to come like major UTV manufacturers?
The plan is to be full production and I would assume after running the initial car for a couple years there will be model rear improvements
It's a bust.
It’s unfortunate that they got hit but the COVID’s while starting this process
2 years from now what will the excuse be? Oh and assembled by a Chinese company.....lol. No thanks!
What is this year 3 what! Lol blah blah blah.
Something like that. I’d say that without Covid it would have been 18 months from announcement to first delivery.
Waiting on parts from china
