The Stels 500 GT ATV breaks stereotypes about the poor quality of Chinese and domestic products. During the development process, Velomotors decided to improve the performance of the ATV.

First of all, the tire size has been increased - now the stock version has 26-inch tires. This led to an increase in ground clearance and a significant increase in the characteristics of the ATV's cross-country ability. Along the way, arch extensions were installed, which effectively cope with the problem of throwing dirt from under the wheels. In addition to the practical effect, these improvements visually improved the image of the car, adding aggressiveness and swiftness to the ATV. The seat was left without modifications - an ergonomic two-level landing with stops for the driver's back and a lift in the passenger area. This practical solution allows you to feel comfortable while piloting the Stels 500 GT - neither the driver nor the passenger "run into" each other, regardless of the acceleration / deceleration dynamics.

The water preparation of the Stels 500 GT has undergone some changes. Now the stock version has moisture-proof wiring, which ensures the tightness of the contacts of the electrical circuit. In addition, a new CVT breather was installed.

The effectiveness of these solutions was tested on an extreme test drive, which Velomotors arranged on the difficult X-Arena cross-endure track, located near the city of Pushkino. Tough combinations of steep climbs, difficult descents, and sharp side-stop turns in viscous post-rain conditions helped to reveal the machine's behavior under all conditions. The only negative is the load on the hands, which was transmitted by the front wheels. But the engine and suspension showed their best side, perfectly coping with a difficult track.

At the second stage - overcoming the water barrier - Stels 500 GT showed itself, as usual, with dignity. Plunging into the water almost up to the headlights, the ATV confidently went forward in low gear without losing power. We remind you that in the previous version, water flowed into the CVT, but in the Stels 500 GT model, the CVT snorkels and the air filter housing were modified and easily coped with ensuring moisture tightness. The predecessor of our hero also overcame the same obstacle, but in order to pull him out of the ditch, we had to work hard. Great job done by the Velomotors!

The Stels 500 GT ATVs outperform their competitors in the price range, winning on several indicators at once. Increased cross-country ability and improved dynamic motor made the car really adapted to harsh operating conditions. With all these pluses, Velomotors took care of the ATV pilots, putting a comfortable ergonomic seat,which ensures comfortable piloting. In addition, the production of plastic and frames, as well as assembly is carried out on the territory of the Russian Federation, which immediately solves the problem of the availability of cheap spare parts with good delivery times. Well, the last argument, the most significant: choosing Stels 500 GT ATVs, you not only buy a good car, but also save a lot.
