401cc Fuel-Injected Four-Stroke Engine

At the heart of the 2026 MULE SX 4x4 XC is Kawasaki's 401cc air-cooled, four-stroke, single-cylinder OHV engine with digital fuel injection.

The MULE SX platform isn't designed around chasing maximum horsepower. Instead, its engine focuses on predictable, practical performance for lower-speed utility work.

That makes it especially well suited to:

• Property maintenance
• Farm chores
• Hunting land
• Camps
• Landscaping
• Equipment transportation
• Recreational property use

Fuel injection also provides modern fuel delivery without sacrificing the straightforward character that has long defined the Kawasaki MULE.

Continuously Variable Transmission

The MULE SX uses a continuously variable transmission with High and Reverse ranges.

That simple drivetrain allows the driver to concentrate on steering, throttle, braking, terrain, and the job instead of manually shifting gears.

For frequent stop-and-go operation around barns, shops, hunting camps, or commercial property, simple operation can be a major advantage.

Selectable 2WD & 4WD

The MULE SX 4x4 XC provides selectable two-wheel and four-wheel drive.

Use 2WD for routine travel, then switch to 4WD when additional traction is required.

That flexibility is useful across:

• Mud
• Gravel
• Dirt
• Wet grass
• Uneven property roads
• Wooded trails
• Hunting land
• Rural terrain

For Northwest Arkansas owners, having four-wheel drive available when conditions deteriorate can make a compact utility vehicle substantially more useful.

Dual-Mode Rear Differential

The MULE SX also features a dual-mode rear differential, allowing the rear differential to be locked when additional traction is needed.

When maximum traction isn't required, unlocked operation can help improve maneuverability and reduce disturbance to sensitive surfaces.

That makes the MULE useful both around maintained property and in rougher terrain.

XC 26-Inch Duro Power Grip Tires

One of the biggest differences between the XC and more basic MULE SX configurations is the tire package.

The MULE SX 4x4 XC uses 26-inch Duro Power Grip tires, giving the vehicle a more aggressive stance and additional terrain capability.

Larger tires contribute to the XC model's increased ground clearance while providing a more rugged appearance.

12-Inch Cast-Aluminum Wheels

The XC tire package is paired with 12-inch cast-aluminum wheels.

Besides giving the MULE SX 4x4 XC a more premium appearance, the wheels help visually distinguish this trim from work-focused configurations equipped with basic steel wheels.

Combined with Metallic Sierra Blue bodywork and aggressive tires, they give the XC a much more upscale look.

8.1 Inches of Ground Clearance

The XC configuration provides approximately 8.1 inches of ground clearance.

That's a meaningful advantage over the roughly 6.1 inches found on some standard MULE SX configurations.

Additional clearance helps when navigating:

• Rocks
• Ruts
• Uneven trails
• Mud
• Rural property roads
• Rough fields

For shoppers expecting to spend more time away from smooth work surfaces, the XC's additional clearance is one of its most valuable upgrades.

400-Lb Cargo-Bed Capacity

The rear steel cargo bed is rated for up to 400 pounds.

Its tilting design makes it useful for transporting and unloading properly secured:

• Tools
• Feed
• Firewood
• Fencing supplies
• Hunting equipment
• Landscaping materials
• Coolers
• Property-maintenance gear

The cargo box is one of the main reasons the MULE SX works so well as an everyday utility vehicle.

1,100-Lb Towing Capacity

The 2026 MULE SX 4x4 XC can tow up to 1,100 pounds when properly equipped and operated within Kawasaki's specified limits.

A 2-inch receiver-type hitch provides flexibility for appropriately rated utility trailers and other compatible equipment.

For a compact side-by-side, that gives the MULE SX substantial work capability.

Compact Width

Despite the XC upgrades, the MULE SX remains a genuinely compact side-by-side.

Its narrow footprint makes it useful in places where a full-size UTV can feel cumbersome, including:

• Barns
• Gates
• Narrow trails
• Wooded acreage
• Camps
• Landscaping
• Equipment areas
• Tight job sites

For many property owners, maneuverability is more useful than having the largest machine available.

Compact Wheelbase

The MULE SX platform's compact wheelbase helps it maneuver around buildings, trees, equipment, gates, and other obstacles.

That can make it particularly useful for farms, commercial properties, hunting land, and smaller acreage where tight turns are part of everyday operation.

Utility-Focused Suspension

The MULE SX 4x4 XC uses MacPherson-strut front suspension and a unit swingarm rear suspension.

Its suspension design emphasizes durability, predictable handling, and practical utility rather than high-speed recreational performance.

Combined with the XC's larger tires and increased ground clearance, the setup provides a useful balance between work and recreational property use.

Hydraulic Drum Brakes

The MULE SX platform uses hydraulic drum brakes at the front and rear.

This straightforward braking system complements the machine's work-oriented character and simple, durable design.

Metallic Sierra Blue Styling

The Metallic Sierra Blue finish gives this 2026 MULE SX 4x4 XC a premium appearance that stands apart from more traditional utility colors.

Paired with:

• XC graphics
• Black trim
• Aggressive 26-inch tires
• Cast-aluminum wheels
• Protective front structure

the Metallic Sierra Blue finish gives the compact MULE a rugged yet upscale look.

A Practical Hunting UTV

The MULE SX 4x4 XC is particularly appealing for hunting properties where tight trails and maneuverability matter.

Its combination of:

• Selectable 4WD
• Locking rear differential
• 26-inch tires
• 8.1 inches of ground clearance
• Compact dimensions
• 400-lb cargo bed
• 1,100-lb towing capacity

makes it useful for checking cameras, transporting gear, maintaining trails, hauling feed, and moving supplies around hunting land.

A Smart Farm & Property UTV

Not every farm or property requires a 1,000cc side-by-side.

If most of your work involves moving tools, supplies, feed, equipment, and trailers around at practical speeds, the MULE SX 4x4 XC provides useful capability without the size and complexity of a larger machine.

Its compact dimensions are especially beneficial around barns, sheds, gardens, gates, livestock areas, and other tight spaces.

Built for Northwest Arkansas

The 2026 Kawasaki MULE SX 4x4 XC is well suited to Northwest Arkansas.

From farms and acreage around Fayetteville and Prairie Grove to hunting property and wooded land throughout the Ozarks, the XC's combination of compact dimensions, 4WD, larger tires, increased ground clearance, cargo capability, and towing capacity makes it a versatile property vehicle.

MULE SX 4x4 XC vs. MULE SX 4x4 FI

Both models share the practical MULE SX foundation, including a fuel-injected 401cc engine, selectable 4WD, locking rear differential, cargo bed, and 1,100-lb towing capability.

The XC steps up with equipment aimed at buyers wanting a more rugged appearance and additional off-road capability, most notably:

• 26-inch Duro Power Grip tires
• 12-inch cast-aluminum wheels
• Approximately 8.1 inches of ground clearance
• XC-specific styling

The standard MULE SX 4x4 FI is a strong choice for basic property work, while the XC makes more sense for buyers expecting rougher terrain or simply wanting the upgraded wheel-and-tire package.
