This flagship utility ATV first appeared for the 2009 model year as the successor to Suzuki’s earlier KingQuad 700 era. It marked the next step in the company’s long-running four-wheel ATV line, bringing a larger 722cc class engine and standard electronic power steering to the top of the range. From the start, it was positioned as a do-everything sports-utility machine aimed at ranch, farm, trail, hunting, and general outdoor use rather than pure recreation.
The nameplate has remained part of Suzuki’s ATV lineup ever since, evolving through recurring updates to styling, chassis detail, emissions compliance, storage convenience, and trim/package variations. Suzuki’s own history materials describe the 2009 introduction as a key milestone in the brand’s KingQuad lineage, and later product pages continue to treat it as the company’s flagship ATV. Despite model-year refreshes and added variants, this is a single continuous production run with no documented discontinuation and revival.
