Cengo F12 High Performance 4WD Electric UTV
The CENGO F12 is a high-performance electric UTV built for demanding farm, rural, commercial and recreational use.
With dual electric motors producing 30 kW combined, on-demand 4WD, front and rear differential locks, independent double-wishbone suspension and aggressive 29-inch off-road tyres, the F12 is designed to handle rough tracks, steep terrain and day-to-day utility work with confidence.
A 144V 130Ah lithium battery provides a range of up to 120 km, while a top speed of up to 86 km/h gives the F12 the pace needed for larger properties, forestry access, rural transport and long-distance farm work.
The F12 also combines serious capability with a well-equipped cabin, including three-person seating, electric power steering, electronic parking brake, a large multimedia display, LED lighting, USB and Type-C charging, and a multifunction steering wheel.
