New quad is tough enough for security policing

Issue 2 2025 Security Services & Risk Management, Products & Solutions

Linhai has introduced its latest full-sized workhorse quad (ATV) to the local market, where it is expected to become a top-rated item in security and policing operations.

The new Linhai Promax 300 quad is an evolution of its predecessor, the Linhai Rustler, with updated looks and a more powerful engine. Beneath the surface, it enjoys uprated suspension for enhanced handling in tough African terrain and boasts a host of new features that have been adapted for local conditions.

Distributed through Smith Power Equipment’s nationwide dealer network, the ATV is the top seller in its segment and brings affordable riding to adventurers and businesses. One of the main drivers behind the model’s popularity is its sheer versatility, which makes it equally at home on adventure trails and safaris as it is working all day on the farm or patrolling businesses or residential estates.

For industries such as security and policing, the robust full-sized quad has a lot to offer those seeking reliable, high-performance equipment for diverse terrains and demanding tasks.

The Linhai Promax 300 is available in either 2x4 or 4x4 derivatives, depending on the applications and terrain, and is packed with features to enhance safety, manoeuvrability, and fuel efficiency. At its core lies a 320cc EFR engine with electronic fuel injection (EFI). This upgrade provides a smooth throttle response, consistent performance across varying conditions, and improved fuel efficiency.

The Linhai Promax 300 offers a full-sized frame with an extended, wider wheelbase for increased stability and comfort. This design ensures sharp handling and control. It features upgraded LED lighting for visibility during nighttime patrols or early-morning tasks. This feature enhances operational efficiency around the clock for estate security teams and game farm operators. It also has steel loading racks on the front and rear for carrying supplies, tools, or equipment.

One of the new Promax 300's less-known, but most useful features is its quiet operation, which makes it ideal for security and policing patrols. Patrollers will also appreciate the newly designed frame and suspension setup, which is built for these types of off-road environments.

The quads' owners receive backup from Smith Power Equipment’s dealer network, which spans the entire country and surrounding areas. Dealers provide access to spare parts, repairs, and maintenance services, making ownership stress-free.
