The article demonstrates the results of the experimental evaluation of the traction and coupling properties of the wheeled utility terrain vehicles (UTV) during which parameters and indicators allowing for their use during designing of new generation UTVs are determined. This work demonstrates the results of the tests in determining maximum drawbar pull; determining maximum drawbar pull at snatch load of the Russian-made UTVs RM 650-2, Stels 800 Guepard and foreign-made UTVs Yamaha Grizzly, BRP Outlander Max XT, BRP Outlander 6x6, Polaris Sportsman 1000 equipped with wheels with grouser height of 15 to 40 mm.
