Kawasaki Mule Pro FXR 1000 vs Kawasaki Mule Pro-FXT 1000 LE

Both are 999cc, 70 hp Kawasaki Mule Pro 1000s with the same engine, CVT and 61.5 lb-ft of torque, so the choice comes down to layout. The Pro FXR is a three-seat, single-row machine with a long cargo bed, 13.2 inches of ground clearance and a 2,000 lb tow rating. The Pro-FXT LE is the three-to-six-seat convertible: it carries more people but gives up bed length when the rear seat is up. Buy the FXR for hauling and rough ground, the FXT for crew and family duty.

• Choose the Mule Pro FXR 1000 if you haul loads, tow a trailer and ride rough ground with up to three people.
• Choose the Mule Pro-FXT 1000 LE if you regularly carry four to six people and want the extra seats more than a long bed.
