ABOUT US
The concept of the HuntVe was born in 2006 from the need for a quality manufactured electric 4x4 off road UTV. Started in Fort Worth Texas, our experienced electric vehicle team combined management and engineering expertise to introduce the HuntVe line of vehicles.
Today we believe that innovation and a focus on quality will sustain our place in the market place.Product value for customer sets HuntVe apart from competitors and is more important to us than volume sales. American made HuntVes will always lead in customer service, technology innovation, and prove the grass is always greener on our side of the fence.
WHY HUNTVE?
The HuntVe line of 4x4 electric and hybrid electric off-road UTVs is renowned for its exceptional quality and consistent performance. Built with top-tier materials and components, HuntVe vehicles are designed for durability. Unlike other manufacturers who opt for a single motor and a noisy shaft drive system to cut costs, HuntVe employs dual direct drive motors. This setup not only ensures a quiet and smooth power delivery but also prevents the overloading of any single motor. A useful tip: think twice before opting for an electric 4x4 UTV with only one motor.
​
HuntVe's 72-volt electric system stands out in its class with superior electronic amp controller power, advanced sound suppression, and robust battery amp hour capacity, along with an impressive array of standard features. In contrast to competitors who may obscure their products' origins, HuntVe takes pride in handcrafting each vehicle in Fort Worth, Texas from scratch.
​
HuntVe's exclusive focus on electric and hybrid electric UTVs means no distractions from the broader gas and diesel power markets. Free from the pressures of quarterly earnings reports typical of larger public companies, HuntVe dedicates itself entirely to delivering unparalleled product quality and reliability. Explore the wilderness with the eco-friendly and serene power of HuntVe.

WHY ELECTRIC?
Electric vehicles have been unique for over 100 years. Thomas Edison predicted that the electric horseless carriage would replace the horse and buggy. Of course this was before Henry Ford came along and long before he could have imagined the interstate highway systems in the US propelled by President Eisenhower. Consider that in 1895 the first auto race in America was won by an electric vehicle, in 1895 the first US car dealer sold only electric vehicles, in 1900 electric cars outnumbered gas-powered cars nearly two to one and in 1908 Henry Ford buys wife, Clara, an electric vehicle.
​
Today electric powered UTVs (utility terrain vehicle) offer the user a unique off road experience. Unlike gas and diesel powered vehicles, there is no sound or smell. For the outdoorsman, hunter or anyone who appreciates the serenity the outdoors can offer, there is nothing like it.
The two most common questions about electric UTVs are about power and range. To the first point, the power generated by direct drive motors is outstanding. Think about a small hand held drill and the power the small motor has to turn the bit. Or the electric power of subways and airport trams – the torque will push you to the ground if you are not holding the rail. It is a smooth power and very efficient.
WHY HYBRID-ELECTRIC?
Range is a something to pay attention to. Battery technology does not allow for endless driving and there are limits. The HuntVe Game Changer for instance, can traverse pastures, hills and creeks for 25 miles before needing a recharge. (As a note, this range estimate is based upon all off road driving, moderate hills, a few creeks and temperatures above 40 degrees. Temperatures below freezing will affect the range moderately.) But even knowing this, there might be a bit of range anxiety for the less experience user that is not familiar with electric. Thus, the hybrid electric HuntVe Switchback. This allows for 15 miles of off road driving and another 80+ miles with gasoline generator assisted driving.
​
The format for our hybrid electric is simple. We have years of proven electric capability – just more range for some would be nice. So we imbed a specially engineered generator to feed the batteries electricity to drive and with the capability to rapid charge when not in motion. Thus, the ability to travel 80+ miles at a time.
