DESCRIPTION:

The release of the STELS ATV 600 ATV is the result of a decision to improve the reliability and quality of equipment, and the stability of the supply of spare parts. To achieve this, the company began to move away from producing ATVs from Chinese components. ATV 600 will be the first ATV under the STELS brand, completely developed and manufactured at the Zhukovsky MotoVelozavod.

The carburetor engine of the model is also a product developed by ZhMVZ engineers; it produces 39 horsepower and has a displacement of 594 cc. The engine has impressive torque, excellent elasticity and traction throughout the entire speed range, and the engine cooling system is liquid.

At the initial stage, the ATV will be produced in the body of the already familiar Hisun ATV 500. This solution ensures the interchangeability of suspension elements and plastics of these models, and will not leave owners of already produced ATVs without spare parts.

The device is equipped with a Koso instrument panel. It is informative and shows a clearly readable image in different temperature conditions, which is especially important for an ATV that is used all year round.

The STELS ATV 600 also features predictable handling and ride comfort, it is stable and handles well in sharp turns. What is important is that the ATV has an impressive margin of safety thanks to the suspension, which absorbs all the bumps on the road.

This new product will undoubtedly become an excellent companion for off-road conquerors!

DESIGNED AND ASSEMBLED IN RUSSIA - ATV 600 is completely developed and manufactured at the Zhukovsky Motovelozavod, Bryansk region.

Frame and chassis

The basis for confident operation is a strong and reliable frame and suspension. The new ATV600 is developed on the basis of the long-known Stels ATV500H and ATV700H. ATVs that have been tested not only by time, but also by various major country-cross and trophy-raid competitions, in which they have proven that the frame and suspension have a colossal margin of safety and can withstand very heavy loads. At the same time, the frame and suspension were strengthened and redesigned by domestic engineers taking into account many years of operation. The production cycle of frame manufacturing, from blanks for pipes to welding and painting, at ZhMVZ is carried out on a robotic production line.

The strength of the suspension is ensured by the use of forged parts and parts made of high-strength alloys. Forged steering knuckles and hubs, stamped high-strength alloy upper arms and tubular lower arms. The hubs use reliable bearings from the famous Japanese company Koyo.

Smooth running and large suspension travel (170 mm at the front and 225 mm at the rear) are ensured by hydraulic shock absorbers from the Taiwanese company Forsa.

Engine and transmission

The only unit from a Chinese manufacturer in the ATV was the engine. However, it will not become the weak point of the ATV - Velomotors engineers took a very responsible approach to the choice of supplier and engine. This simple and reliable unit has a large safety margin.

Initially, this motor was designed for heavy and loaded UTV class vehicles. In engineering it was adapted for installation on an ATV. The mounting points and the shape of the crankcase have been changed, the intake and exhaust system for this engine has been calculated and optimized. The power system uses a carburetor from one of the Japanese leaders in this field - Mikuni. After all the modifications, the engine produces 39 hp. To increase reliability, an additional engine oil cooling system has been designed.

Imported transmission elements (cardan shafts, drives, gearboxes) are supplied by well-known Taiwanese companies, which also supply their products to famous brands.

Brake system

The braking system did not go unnoticed - it was completely replaced with a new one, developed jointly with a Taiwanese manufacturer. The new brakes are more efficient and provide better feedback. To increase reliability, the system uses reinforced brake hoses.

Electrics

To increase reliability and quality, the ATV is equipped with waterproof electrical wiring. All relays and fuses are placed in a moisture- and dust-proof box.

All necessary data on engine operation, speed, coolant temperature and other parameters are displayed on the Italian dashboard of Koso, a well-known manufacturer of electronics for all types of motorcycle equipment.

When choosing steering switches, the choice fell on proven and well-proven remote controls made in Taiwan on ATVs. These are remote controls that have been used for a long time on Stels ATVs in D and GT trim levels.

Appearance

The world famous Yamaha Grizzly ATV served as a design model for the Stels ATV600. All plastic parts for the cladding will be produced at MotoVeloZavod in Zhukovka.

The engineering department conducted a lot of analyses, tests and experiments aimed at selecting the best plastic for ATV linings. The new composition, which will be used in production, is an excellent combination of elasticity and strength. The new plastic cladding can withstand very strong impacts without any serious damage. All this made it possible to achieve the survivability of the fenders and running boards even in the most difficult situations.

How to choose a model

If you decide to purchase an ATV, you need to decide for what purpose it is needed in order to take into account all the technical parameters.

If you need an ATV only for your summer cottage, you should choose the most versatile and practical option. The model must have a winch and a tow bar. For such purposes, the Stealth ATV 500 H or Stealth ATV 700 H ATV is suitable.

For hunting or fishing trips, it is better to choose a utilitarian all-terrain vehicle. It should have high tread wheels, a winch, a powerful engine and a large gas tank. For example, the Stels ATV 800 Guepard ST model. It is also worth considering the volume and capacity of the trunk, and maneuverability through the forest.

If you want to choose a Stealth ATV for a child, you need to pay attention to safety and dimensions. Engine capacity should not exceed 120 hp. Stels ATV 110 A HUGO or Stels ATV 100 RS will fit perfectly.

There is no need to chase high-speed all-terrain vehicles if you have no driving experience. It is better to rely on stability and safety.

It is worth paying attention to the gearbox. Like cars, it can be manual, automatic or semi-automatic. And, of course, the drive: all-wheel drive units are more expensive.
