The cargo box ease of use is critical to performing tasks quickly and efficiently. Starting with the truck-style tailgate, the removal of content in this cargo box could not be easier. The manual release also functions as the lift lever, done in a smooth, one-step motion. It can even be tilted from both sides of the vehicle. To reduce the overall effort of lift, the pivot point of the cargo box is closer to the center. The combination of easy-to-use attributes makes this cargo box best-in-class.

 

For servicing the vehicle’s systems, the cargo box is easily removable. With the removal of two bolts, the cargo box can easily be detached from the vehicle frame.

XUV front suspension detailXUV front suspension detail

To complement the comfortable operation station, the XUV560 and XUV590 Series are equipped with four-wheel independent suspension. This unique suspension set-up provides an unparalleled ride over challenging terrain and excellent handling through corners.

 

The engineering team, in collaboration with engineering firms that consult with Formula 1®, NASCAR®, and INDYCAR® teams, built a capable suspension system for class-leading operator comfort no matter what the terrain.

Dual A-arm front suspension features include:
  • Dual, wide arch A-arm design provides maximum front-wheel control, precise steering, and maximum ground clearance out to the wheel
  • 203 mm (8 in.) of travel provides ample compression and wheel extension, which keep all four wheels on the ground for superior traction and vehicle control
  • Adjustable coil-over shocks absorb the most demanding terrain
  • Solid anti-roll bar with fully rubber isolated connecting links and pivots is tuned to provide the most agile and predictable handling
  • Camber during compression to compensate for body roll and to maintain an optimal tire contact patch for improved cornering grip
  • Increasing vehicle width during compression for additional stability.
  • High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle and upper A-arm to support the high stresses of the shocks, constant-velocity (CV) shaft, and wheels
  • Automotive-style, fully boxed and welded, high-strength steel, lower A-arms to minimize unsprung mass and maximize strength
  • Maintenance-free, rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation
  • CV shaft protection from sticks that may puncture the rubber boot
  • Anti-dive front suspension geometry provides a solid platform for confident braking
  • Optimized steering geometry using ADAMS CAR simulation to minimize steering effort and maximize terrain feedback
XUV rear suspension detailXUV rear suspension detail
Independent rear suspension features include:
  • 203 mm (8 in.) of travel provides ample compression and wheel extension, which keep all four wheels on the ground for superior traction and vehicle control
  • Unique, independent rear-suspension design ensures a great ride and protection for the CV shafts
  • Adjustable coil-over shocks absorb the most demanding terrain
  • Camber during compression to compensate for body roll and to maintain an optimal tire contact patch for improved cornering grip
  • Increasing vehicle width during compression for additional stability.
  • High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle, lower A-arm, and upper link to support the high stresses of the shocks, CV shaft, and wheels with the toughness to survive impacts from boulders
  • Maintenance-free rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation
Optional Fox™ Shocks are available to factory install

Exclusive aluminum-body, high-pressure monotube FOX racing shocks

  • Fully adjustable spring preload for different driving styles
  • High-pressure nitrogen gas is separated from the damping oil by an internal floating piston (IFP). The separation prevents aeration (frothing) and viscosity degradation of the oil which improves damping consistency and performance fade.
  • Pressure and heat generation in the monotube is less than a traditional twin-tube shock, allowing for better vehicle control in aggressive conditions.
  • The single aluminum shell of the monotube design allows for more efficient heat rejection and lower overall unsprung mass.
  • Mounting the shaft end of the shock to the suspension arm lowers the unsprung mass of the suspension system, leading to improved suspension response.

XUV590M with power steeringXUV590M with power steering

The Gator™ XUV590M Utility Vehicles are equipped with rack and pinion steering with power steering. These automotive-type systems exhibit excellent handling characteristics, as well as responsive steering and low steering effort.

Automotive-type, rack-and-pinion steering features include:

Optional electric power-assist steering (EPAS) system. Features of EPAS include:

  • Anti-kickback feature reduces the amount of steering unwinding when traversing difficult terrain.
  • The system is speed sensing and adjusts steering effort as the speed of the vehicle changes.
    • As speed increases there is less steering assist for improved road feel.
    • As speed decreases steering assist increases to give lower steering efforts for improved maneuverability.
  • A warning/functional light on the instrument panel provides self-diagnostics and a warning light in the situation of no assist.
  • Torque sensor measures steering wheel input so the on-board computer can provide the appropriate output for various driving situations.
    • Steel ball-bearings secure the steering shaft and delivers smooth, responsive operation
    • Tight turn radius of 3.7 m (12.3 ft) for excellent maneuverability
    • Completely sealed rack-and-pinion for long life
    • Low steering ratio (lock-to-lock steering wheel rotations) provides more responsive steering and less operator input
    • Shaft U-joints are phased for a smooth, uninterrupted motion of the steering wheel
    • Ackerman steering design provides more responsive steering, decreases tire wear when used on hard surfaces and is turf friendly (see description below)
    • Minimal bump steer eliminates unintended vehicle direction changes when traversing terrain and permits less feedback to the steering wheel (see description below)

 

The tire scrubbing, which also creates unwanted heat and wear in the tire, can be eliminated by turning the inside wheel at a greater angle than the outside one (Ackerman steering).

 

NOTE: Some competitors use parallel steering instead of Ackerman steering.

 

Bump steering defines the change in the forward steering angle (thus wheel position) as the suspension travels through its full motion. A large amount of angular change (5 degrees to 7 degrees) will alter the vehicle's direction and excessively move the steering wheel.

XUV590 with OSR netsXUV590 with OSR nets

A dynamically stable vehicle starts with the architectural design; the Gator™ XUV Crossover Series has a low center of gravity, a wide stance, and balance of weight between the front and rear axles.

 

The combination leads to a class-leading static stability factor (SSF) and passing a multitude of dynamic stability tests.

Awesome unit

5/5

I use it daily. It's a work/play utility vehicle. Very versatile. Recommended for anyone who does round up cattle or fence work. May be smaller than the 800 series but it quicker on acceleration n turns better than 800 series jd gator. I find the steering wheel in a better position as well n very easy to turn.

Pros

  • very good good on fuel and rides smooth.

Cons

  • not alot of attachments yet
  • no hard cab designed yet

love my 590 gator very dependable and durable very satisfied with it.

5/5

Took my 590 Gator through some very rough terrain and several hills with loose rock my gator handled the hills with ease and dependability also had plenty of clearance over rocky terrain hit only a couple of times on the skid plates protecting the under carriage and the alloy wheels and tires were awesome and yes get the power steering it is worth it handled great.

Pros

  • winch was excelent .

Cons

  • doors were a problem with brush snagging them

Just bought a 2018 XUV590M

5/5

Loving it. Very terrain accepting vehicle. Bought it yesterday and put it to work this morning rounding up cattle and it did way better than I thought and handled really smooth. Very responsive. Steering couldnt be any smoother. Braking was very firm and the ride was even better. Recommended for a farm or ranch where you can work but also play. its a Crossover. So its a fun work/play XUV. I believe for the price, it was a good value since its not JUST a Toy or JUST a Work vehicle.. Its both. It has a 1,100 plus towing capacity and cargo box up to 500 pounds. It may not be fast but at 48 MPH (might do 50 but will slow down to 48) it feels like it can go faster. I feel the 48 MPH is just right. RSX models can go much faster but so can the 800 Series. I felt like i was driving a small car. steering wheel is in the right place. Turns awesome. I highly recommend it.
