I saw the Segway Super Villain at the Consumer Electronics Showcase (CES) in Las Vegas a few years back. It was a pre-production unit, but the idea was obvious: Segway was looking to break into the UTV space and had built a 235-horsepower machine powered by a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder turbocharged engine, with a slew of tech thrown in to separate it from others in the category.
There were rumors of a hybrid powertrain, too, making somewhere north of 300-horsepower, but hybrid powerplants mean big batteries, which also means big weight. So, the mobility brand settled on a traditional ICE engine for its initial UTV offering. And now, after those years, it's finally coming to the States.
