A supplementary seating solution designed for utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) or side-by-sides, increases passenger capacity beyond the vehicle’s standard configuration. This additional seat is typically installed in the vehicle’s cabin and provides a secure place for an extra occupant, often a child. For instance, a UTV designed for two adults might be fitted with this seating to accommodate a small child, enabling family participation in off-road activities.
The utility of this seating option lies in its ability to enhance the versatility of a side-by-side. It allows families to enjoy recreational activities together without requiring a larger or additional vehicle. The availability of safe and reliable passenger capacity broadens the scope of activities the UTV can support, from trail riding to light work on a property. Historically, modifications to increase passenger capacity were often improvised; modern solutions offer engineered safety and integration.
