Segway Fugleman - Can it compete? Overview + Test Ride - Fugleman UT10 1000cc UTV/SXS

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

THUMBS UP if you think Segway Powersport has what it takes to compete in the industry.

[@cp-jc2784]

Bought a UT10X in the spring, roughly 900km on it so far with no issues.

[@adamellis4301]

A buddy of mine has one. He upgraded to 30" tires. I've ridden in it and followed it. A very capable machine.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Nice! That's great feedback. I'm hoping we can get one out on a real trail ride in the future to see how it does.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

We had a chance to test drive a couple Segway Fugleman's a little while ago. This is Segway's utility machine and we had the opportunity to give them a little shakedown. Overall the machines felt pretty good and will likely stack up well against other machines in this market segment. Only time will truly tell how well these units perform and hold together. Out of the box they look good and seem to function well. This was only a basic overview and we didn't get a chance to load them up, tow, pull or really test out the utility of them on a larger scale. Thanks for checking out the video and leave a comment with your thoughts.

[@charlielake2614]

Looks like a capable workhorse. Really like that it came stock with turn signals and a place to plug in a trailer!

[@mircosusan780]

Did they send you these for the review and did you get to keep them?

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

@@mircosusan780 they didn’t send them to me and I don’t get to keep them. I just got a few opportunities to try them out. I love driving new machines so I took advantage of the opportunities.

[@mjuhanil]

They seem to be losing dealers in Canada. I think there's only 6 or 7 left

[@MainvilleATV]

They certainly came in strong. I'll definitely give them credit coming into a long standing domination from other brands. Won't be easy and I think dealer network and improvements to the line up over the next 5 to 10 years will determine everything. I'll always welcome more competition! Hope the hybrid hits soon.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

I totally agree. Competition is always good for the industry and the consumers. It’s not easy coming into such an established market at such a competitive time. Especially when you factor in how heavy brand bias is in our industry. Time will tell.

[@MainvilleATV]

@@AdrenalineJunkieProd Uphill battle. I wish them luck!

[@stephenmontgomery5807]

Excellent video , thank you for this great footage. I’m 95% sold on one of these for utility on some land .

[@FOGELL_TheGreat]

My dad bought one 3 months ago and so far loves it, he bought the x model so it comes with the big screen and bead lock wheels, it can do over 200km on a tank of gas and very smooth ride, he has also modified a few things to the fugleman to improve it and Segway Canada has been taking notes to help with the future machines to fix a few small issues

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Nice, glad he's enjoying it so far! It seems like a platform with some potential for sure. Any new machine will have some growing pains. It will be interesting to see where Segway Powersports takes things in the next 2-5 years.

[@FOGELL_TheGreat]

@@AdrenalineJunkieProd exactly and also with the price point you can’t go wrong with what you get most of the ad on’s you have to add but with Segway it comes fully loaded from the factory

[@graesonoliver9224]

How’s it holding up?

[@FOGELL_TheGreat]

@@graesonoliver9224 it’s still running but ran into some issues , his hanger bearing started making noise and unfortunately the intakes warped from the heat of the engine and cause the engine to suck in dirt, when we pulled them off it looked like the valves got sand blasted so now we are waiting for it to go to the dealer so they can perform a leak down test and determine if there was damage to the engine which most likely is , but the dealer is taking there time cause it’s “ snowmobile season” and can’t take a look at it rn so will have to wait and see besides that it’s held up good

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

I actually like the looks of the utv. Almost bought one before they were out on the market. I couldn't wait any longer, I needed a machine. Went and got a Zforce. It was a good decision because I discovered I'd rather ride trails instead of a work horse. The Fugleman would be awesome for snow plowing my long driveway. You're right when you say it looks cool dirty!

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Ya, it's a pretty decent lookin machine. I think with some doors and a few other tweaks it could look really sharp. It's definitely directed slightly more towards utility in my opinon but it's still sporty enough that you can have a lot of fun with it. Driving it reminds me of a first generation commander that's a little more refined. I like how the rear end has that pickup truck look.

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

@@AdrenalineJunkieProd yes it does have that pickup look. Here at Powell Powersports they have one with doors and a kfi plow system. First snow storm I'm going to check if they left the keys in it 🤣

[@OffroadTakeover8]

@@FANATICALSIDERIDER how do you like that CFMOTO?💪🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@Dreamscythe1]

@@OffroadTakeover8 ive had a cfmoto for about a year now and im really happy with it, i also have a 2022 polaris and i find the fit and finish on par with my poalris, better in some spots. the ride is not quite as good but its more than acceptable, especially since it was thousands cheaper. so far zero problems with it

[@FANATICALSIDERIDER]

@@OffroadTakeover8 I'm liking it, it's been over one year now, 3000 miles. No complaints really. A little more ground clearance would be nice but that's up to me.

[@hivamucarr]

I using 500km its perfect vehicle comfortable powerfull heavy i m to happy👍🏻

[@davidbethea7610]

Keep up the good work. I really appreciate your hard work making KZbin videos. You have some awesome videos. You Canadian's are a tough bunch. And that wife of yours is a great camera girl. I ride the Hatfield & McCoy trails mostly. I would like to see y'all down this way more. Maybe run up with you some time. You have some beautiful country up there. Keep up the great video work.

[@brettls2]

My concern with brands like these is getting parts in the future, the brand may not be around 5-10 years down the road like the big names.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

I agree and I think this is a major concern for most. In this case though, Segway is a massive name and a big brand. I doubt they would have entered this market space if they didn’t plan to stick around. I don’t think they will leave. It will be interesting to see how quickly they grow and what moves they make in the future. People said similar about CFMOTO and they constitute to grow in market share. They have shown good improvement over the years with parts availability and aftermarket support.

[@ryanfx4rh]

I’m wanting buy one and I’m concerned about this . Scared that in the future when something breaks I won’t be able to get parts to fix it

[@russflorek]

Nice to see a review vid! Loved the 900s review vid. I’m torn between a trail 1000S and a KRX trail edition. Help me decide. Not doing high speed stuff. More technical trails.

[@chadfaulkner3600]

I think it's personal preference n comfort. You couldn't go wrong with either one. Both very good machines. Rzr probably had a better aftermarket but krx aftermarket is coming along very well too.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Hey Russell, I agree with Chad. Best thing you can do is try and get out for a ride in both or at least go check some out and see how they feel. I think that out of the box the KRX is a wicked unit but I'd also say the 1000S RZR is one of the best units out there for reliability and capabilities. It's a tough choice, lol.

[@DrewAndrew]

New Camera Girl machine. She looked really comfortable driving it and there’s plenty of room for all the camera gear. Just add slightly bigger tyres and your all good.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

It would make a great support vehicle. So would a 4 seater, lol. I'm gonna have to start lookin for a second machine next season. Kseniia had fun driving the Fugleman.

[@drmarkintexas-400]

Thank you for sharing 🤗🇺🇲🙏

[@chrisweber5375]

Well, looks like a well equipped working tool, if u need one… Thx for the informative video

I'd love to see a Segway in person ! Interesting

[@jordangladden7749]

Perfect timing. Just made some popcorn

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

LOL! You might have some left over for a few more videos. This is just a shorter edit. I've got a few new ride videos in the works though!

[@rickgarcia8481]

Apparently they arent selling to go, dealer near me has quite a few marked down under $15,000. I read alot of problems with the cabs getting horribly hot they had recalls to try to fix the issue, but it still persist. Definitely not a unit to purchase in the south

[@randytingen]

Great review Julian

[@autocityfredericton]

How do you feel about Segway Canada and there customer service?

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Ugh.... such a loaded question. It's not as good as it should be in my opinion. I've heard some horror stories from dealerships and consumers. I don't like to talk negative or bash on here so I'll leave it at that. On a positive note, what Segway Powersports in the USA is doing looks great. They have been pushing things in the right direction down there.

[@TheAcenightcreeper]

Fugelman sounds like the CPA who does my business tax filings every year…..

[@monsolympus7823]

The 4x4 system is most definately not on the fly. You need to stop, put it in P not N and then switch. Per the owner's manuel.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Really? That’s weird. I switched on the fly. Foot off throttle coasting and it worked fine. Just like most the other machines.

[@monsolympus7823]

@@AdrenalineJunkieProd it will switch on the fly but is not designes to. I heard an odd noise when I was stopped and engaged the 4x4 while in N. I read in my manuel and it said to be fully atopped and in P.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

@@monsolympus7823 that’s great feedback, thank you. I wasn’t aware of it. I just assumed it was like Polaris or Can-Am.

[@monsolympus7823]

@@AdrenalineJunkieProd no worries. Most would.

[@ariesnc6320]

Any plans for this to come in a 4 seater option ?

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

Personally I don’t know. I’m not affiliated with Segway Powersports on any level. I just got a chance to mess around with a few of the machines. Logic would dictate that a 4 seater would make a lot of sense down the line.

[@asphaltwarrior1]

They sound extremely anemic in the power dept. for a 1000 . I dislike that shifter right by the wheel, I’d be jamming my hands up in that wheeling through the woods.

[@AdrenalineJunkieProd]

They don’t sound awesome but they didn’t feel underpowered. Not with the stock wheel and tire setup at least. The power was kind of what I’d expect out of a machine like this.

[@dragomni]

It performs pretty well, I've had a good variety of sXs machines, couple with 100hp and this will whoop up on them pretty easily, other than the 65mph speed limiter. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoCcn3pjmbCkgM0
