This UTV’s Built For Winter, So You Have No Excuses
An enclosed cabin and built-in heater keep you comfy in frigid temps.

When winter rolls around, lots of us powersports junkies stow our toys away. At this point, some of us will either whip out our snowmobiles or simply sulk and wait for the snow to clear and the sunny days to return.

That said, there are quite a few winter-oriented powersports goodies out on the market these days, and one of the newest comes from Massimo Motor, in the form of the T-Boss Series of UTVs. Now, the Garland, Texas-based off-road specialist says that the T-Boss is designed specifically for winter, as it’s equipped with all the features you’d need to keep having a great time outdoors despite the frigid temps.

Naturally, any vehicle equipped for winter conditions needs to be pretty durable. Sub-zero temps, deep snow, and poor visibility make the perfect recipe for getting stranded, and so this thing needs to be quite the capable machine. And on paper, at least, this seems to be the case.

To start with, the T-Boss’ cab is fully enclosed. Its windshield and windows are made of tempered glass which should be strong enough to keep occupants shielded from rain, wind, snow, and the extremely rare grizzly bear attack. Even better still, the T-Boss gets a heated cabin—so yeah, you can practically live in this thing.

Massimo offers the T-Boss in three flavors—the T-Boss 550L, T-Boss 560L, and T-Boss 760L, so it comes in different trim and power options to suit varying degrees of adventure-readiness. It’s just a shame that as of the time of writing, Massimo hasn’t given us any additional images apart from the low-res rendering in its press release.

Nevertheless, this thing might as well be a rally car ready for some crazy off-road adventures in the dead of winter.

Having said that, if the Massimo T-Boss is outfitted to tackle the grueling winter season, then it’s surely a solid and thoroughly capable all-rounder any time of the year, right? Use it for hunting in the spring and summer, and strap on your gear and luggage and go camping in the fall as the temps begin to drop. Heck, this thing looks like it’s practical enough to take your kid to school on weekdays and grab some groceries on the way home—something Executive Editor Jonathon Klein does with his Can-Am Maverick in Utah.

Oh, if only UTVs were street-legal in other parts of the world.
