The article presents the results of experimental evaluation of profile passability of the Russian- and foreign-made utility terrain vehicles (UTV).Russian-made UTVs RM 650-2, RM 800 (by JSC Russkaya Mekhanika), Stels 800 Guepard (by GC Velomotors). Foreign-made UTVs Yamaha Grizzly, BRP Outlander Max XT, BRP Outlander 6x6, Polaris Sportsman 1000. The tests to determine profile passability of the Russian and foreign UTVs were conducted for the following cases: 1) UTV climbing; 2) UTV downhill movement; 3) UTV aslope movement; 4) Trench crossing of an UTV; 5) Hole crossing of an UTV; 6) UTV crossing of a single irregularity in the form of a log.
