John Deere Adds All-Electric Gator GX and GX Crew Models to Its Iconic UTV Lineup

John Deere is expanding its Gator utility vehicle lineup with the introduction of the all-electric Gator GX and GX Crew. Built for reliable and quiet performance, these UTVs are a great choice for residential and rural property owners, farmers and rural lifestyle enthusiasts. The new models are designed to help operators manage light-duty jobs around their properties.

According to the press release, the Gator GX and GX Crew make tasks easier — whether you’re transporting people, gear and debris or hauling landscape materials and tools. The electric units offer a comfortable and quieter operating experience when compared to gas or diesel utility vehicles.

Both the GX and GX Crew are available in John Deere Green and Yellow or Grey Metallic. The GX model seats two, while the GX Crew seats four. John Deere said the GX Crew’s rear row of seats can fold down to expand cargo space. This gives operators the ability to seamlessly transition between moving passengers to moving materials.

“The Gator GX lineup offers property owners the opportunity to increase productivity around their properties with less noise, less maintenance and more versatility,” said Eric Halfman, John Deere go-to-market manager. “These utility vehicles are intuitive and durable while offering users the comfort, reliability and convenience they expect from a John Deere Gator.”  

John Deere shared these key features of the Gator GX lineup:

• All-day comfort and control: High-back ergonomic seating, canopy protection from sun and rain, whisper-quiet operation and intuitive controls keep users comfortable and confident, rain or shine.
• Zero operating emissions without compromise due to electric performance: A 51V lithium-ion battery delivers instant torque and smooth acceleration, while offering onboard charging to provide a simple ease-of-use experience.  
• Streamlined maintenance: Fewer moving parts means no fuel, oil changes or belt replacements, significantly reducing upkeep and increasing uptime.
• Purpose-built for work and play: Both models include multiple cargo and storage areas, ergonomic ingress/egress and offer attachments like a lighting kit and a JDLink M modem for connectivity and fleet management.
