Review

The 2015 Yamaha Grizzly 550 FI Auto. 4 x 4 EPS represents a solid offering in the utility ATV segment, building upon Yamaha's long-standing Grizzly lineage known for its rugged dependability. This model was a key contender in its class, often compared to rivals like the Polaris Sportsman 570, offering a compelling package for riders seeking a capable and user-friendly off-road machine for work or recreation.

At its heart, the Grizzly 550 FI Auto. 4 x 4 EPS is powered by a robust 558.0 ccm (34.05 cubic inches) liquid-cooled engine, providing ample power for various tasks and trail riding. The fuel-injected system ensures reliable starting and consistent power delivery across different altitudes and temperatures, a significant advantage for utility applications. Its automatic transmission simplifies operation, allowing riders to focus on the terrain rather than gear changes. With a substantial fuel capacity of 20.06 litres (5.30 US gallons), the Grizzly offers extended range, minimizing interruptions during long days in the field or on the trail.

Riding characteristics of the 2015 Grizzly 550 are geared towards comfort and control. The Electric Power Steering (EPS) significantly reduces rider fatigue, especially during low-speed maneuvering or when navigating technical terrain. The seat height, at 904 mm (35.6 inches) in its lowest adjustable setting, provides a comfortable perch for a wide range of riders, contributing to an upright and commanding riding position. Its fully independent suspension system, a hallmark of the Grizzly series, soaks up bumps and undulations, promoting a smooth ride even over challenging landscapes.

The 2015 Yamaha Grizzly 550 FI Auto. 4 x 4 EPS is ideally suited for riders who demand a reliable and versatile utility ATV. It appeals to a broad audience, from landowners and farmers needing a workhorse to recreational riders exploring trails and engaging in outdoor activities. Its combination of a potent engine, user-friendly features like EPS, and a comfortable ride makes it a strong choice for those prioritizing practicality and ease of use in their off-road adventures.

Cons (Disadvantages)

⚠️ Things to consider

• Compared to larger displacement ATVs, the 550cc engine might feel underpowered for extreme mudding or heavy towing. • No power steering on the base model, making it more physically demanding to steer without EPS. • Older design; lacks some modern features and technology found on newer generation ATVs. • Fuel economy, while decent, won't match smaller displacement machines, especially when pushed hard. • Stock tires might not be aggressive enough for highly challenging mud or rock crawling conditions.
