Features

Chassis & Ergonomics

  • RELIABLE MUSCLE: Built around a durable frame with double wishbone front suspension and disc brakes, the Brute Force® 300 ATV is engineered for control and comfort. Light handling and thoughtfully designed ergonomics make all day riding enjoyable, whether tackling trails or hauling cargo around the property.
  • HIGHLY CAPABLE: The rugged frame and wide stance form a strong foundation, giving the Brute Force® 300 ATV its balance of agility and stability. Built powerfully and nimbly for everyday use, it provides light, predictable handling with the confidence to tackle rough terrain with comfort and control.
  • ADAPT TO COMFORT: On the Brute Force® 300 ATV, the suspension system fine-tunes stability for comfort, absorbing bumps while remaining responsive. Double wishbone front suspension and a rear swingarm with single axle smooth out uneven ground, resulting in fun, sporty handling, while 5-way shock preload adjustability lets riders adapt the setup to their terrain or load.
  • STRONG STOPPING POWER: Dual 180mm front brake discs with single-piston calipers deliver strong stopping power with predictable feel. At the rear, a matching 180mm brake disc and single-piston caliper balance the setup for confident, controlled braking. A mechanical parking brake activates the rear caliper without relying on the hydraulic system.
  • RIDE NATURALLY: Compact and rider-friendly, the Brute Force® 300 ATV has a natural riding position that suits a wide range of riders. Wide handlebars with internal weights reduce vibration, while a thick, cushioned seat and flush surfaces promise all-day comfort without limiting sporty posturing. Minimal height difference between the footpegs and floorboards offers greater freedom of movement and reduced fatigue on longer rides.
  • TREAD YOU CAN TRUST: Relentless on rugged terrain, highly durable and rigid 22-in Maxxis® tires lead the way with steady traction.

Compact Power

  • SMOOTH & SPORTY: At the heart of the Brute Force® 300 ATV is a responsive, fuel-injected 271cc engine matched to an automatic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with centrifugal clutch. With high and low ranges plus reverse, it’s ready for everyday chores and all-out trail fun.
  • FUEL-INJECTED BRUTE STRENGTH: The liquid-cooled 271cc 4-stroke engine packs strong, reliable power with smooth, user-friendly power delivery. New fuel injection automatically adapts to changing air temperatures and elevation, ensuring crisp throttle response, quicker starts, and cleaner emissions for an extra level of confidence on tough projects and fast-paced rides.
  • SEAMLESS PERFORMANCE: A durable CVT with centrifugal clutch delivers smooth acceleration, direct engine response and controlled engine braking. With high and low ranges plus reverse, the Brute Force® 300 ATV is equipped to handle tight maneuvers, hills, and everything in between.

Durability & Reliability

  • MADE TO LAST: Durability and reliability form the backbone of the new Brute Force® 300 ATV. A bold 3D emblem up front signals legendary Kawasaki build quality—from the reinforced chassis and proven CVT to the rugged bodywork and robust cargo racks. Built without quit, the Brute Force 300 handles rough trails and tough jobs with rock-solid strength and dependability.
  • STRENGTH IN THE DETAILS: Starting with the frame and sturdy suspension, the chassis is carefully engineered to remain solid and responsive under rough terrain and heavy cargo. Every component of the new Brute Force® 300 ATV follows that same principle of dependable engineering. The gate-style shift pattern offers precise gear control, even in harsh conditions. The N6-grade CVT belt adds smooth power delivery with the strength to handle high torque. And with the CVT intake mounted high under the tail, mud and water stay out—so you stay moving.

Modern Styling

  • FUNCTIONAL FORM: The Brute Force® 300 ATV blends modern toughness with sharp details. From updated sporty bodywork and graphics to highly useful features like LED lighting and digital instrumentation, every element adds utility on the trail while keeping with the bold Brute Force® family styling.
  • LED LIGHTS LEAD THE WAY: New front LED headlights illuminate the path ahead while stylish rear taillights shine brightly behind you. LED lights add to the fierce modern shape, complementing the aggressive design of this ATV.
  • ALL-DIGITAL: A backlit LCD digital display keeps essential information front and center: speed, rpm, gear position, and fuel level. Additional functions like clock, odometer, hour meter, trip meter, and indicator lights keep you informed at a glance.

Utility

  • BUILT FOR CONVENIENCE: The Brute Force® 300 ATV works harder than its size suggests. With a new handlebar-mounted LED light, rugged racks, ample storage, and impressive towing capacity, it packs surprising capability into a compact package. Whether you’re hauling gear, stashing essentials, or powering your accessories, the Brute Force 300 stays prepared.
  • HARD WORK MADE EASY: Equipped with robust front and rear cargo racks, the Brute Force® 300 ATV carries up to 44 lbs and 66 lbs in the front and rear, respectively, complete with built-in hooks for securing cargo. A 500-lb towing capacity adds serious pulling power.
  • LED CONVENIENCE: On the Brute Force® 300 ATV, a new handlebar-mounted LED light turns with the handlebars for a wider range of illumination on the trail and an extra hand on projects.
  • LOAD & LOCK: A 2-in hitch receiver—and 500-lb towing capacity—handle everyday chores and especially heavy tasks.
  • THE ALL-IN-ONE ATV: A roomy front storage compartment—rubber sealed for water resistance—holds up to 4 16-oz bottles, while a side pocket in the right fender keeps small essentials within reach. For added utility, a 12V DC socket on the handle cover delivers up to 30W of power for accessories.
