ATVs (all-terrain vehicles) are meant for single riders and are mainly used for recreational activities such as off-road riding and hunting. Steering is operated by handlebars, and riders straddle the seat. UTVs (utility task vehicles), commonly known as side-by-sides, are operated by a steering wheel, are a lot bigger, and can carry up to four people. They serve more of a utility purpose, which is useful for farmers because of their strong hauling and towing capacity. Side by sides can also be used recreationally.
