John Deere has announced the launch of its new diesel Gator™ XUV 875M utility vehicle. Designed to improve productivity across various tasks, the Gator XUV 875M offers increased cargo capacity, enhanced comfort, and improved functionality.

Key specifications

The new Gator model’s key features include a 22.8 hp engine with a fuel tank volume of 42.4 litres, a seating capacity for three (suitable for off-road use), a cargo box capacity of 454 kg, and fully independent suspension with 203/229mm travel (front/rear).

Reliability and comfort

The Gator XUV 875M builds on the reliability of previous models with an updated rear suspension design and tuned shock absorbers to enhance comfort. Key improvements include relocating the air intake 30 cm higher to ensure cleaner air intake, protecting the engine. Additionally, the new CVT (continuously variable transmission) air intake and exhaust system help draw cleaner air, protecting the system from debris, water, and mud.

Versatility

The redesigned cargo box of the Gator XUV 875M offers 13% more space than the XUV865M model, allowing for greater carrying capacity. Other key features of the cargo box are:

  • increased width to enhance cargo capacity and reduce mud sling
  • 12V SAE power port for added convenience
  • five divider slots on the side and three at the front to secure items
  • option to create a second level of storage
  • redesigned tailgate with a flat work surface, metric and imperial measurements, v-groove for cutting pipe, anti-gravity pockets, bump stops, and cup holders
  • integrated clamping points to secure items
  • fold-flat tie-downs in the front-middle and four corners of the load bed
  • tie-down pockets for securing loads that obstruct access to the D-rings inside the cargo box
  • four stake pockets on each side to accommodate stake pocket clamps for tool storage

Peter Nelder, John Deere Product Manager for Gator Utility Vehicles & Compact Utility Tractors in Europe, said on the new cargo box features: “The redesigned cargo box on the Gator XUV 875M is a very significant improvement, offering more space and functionality for our customers. The added width and integrated clamping points provide users with greater flexibility and convenience, making it easier to carry and secure a variety of items.”

The John Deere Gator XUV 875M utility vehicle will be available to dealers from spring 2025.
