CFMOTO has just made a big hit in the world of ATVs! The Hangzhou-based company presented the future aesthetics of the CFORCE C4, CFORCE C5 TOURING, and CFORCE C6 PRO TOURING ATVs at EICMA, the international motorcycle show in Milan. These three ATV models feature a new fourth-generation design, first revealed through the CFORCE Gen 4 DNA concept at last year’s EICMA. This evolution is still in prototype form, as the third-generation CFORCE models are already in the 2026 catalog. These exhibition models represent the evolution of the concept into production.
No more imitation, make way for innovation!
It is clear that the design team is highly innovative, and it has just created an exclusive visual signature that is sure to be copied in the future, as it is so innovative and inspiring.
Chinese vehicles often imitated Japanese or even Quebec models, as BRP designers are recognized as masters of aesthetics.
But here, it’s CFMOTO that’s leading the way. Gone are the designs that resemble animal curves or the force of the wind. CFMOTO USA’s design director, Alexei Mikhailov, has unveiled the square trend, a build that evokes strength. But this is not the minimalist spirit of Tesla’s Cybertruck. There is more stylistic research. The sharp, aggressive shapes come together harmoniously.
Viewed from the front, a narrow light bar crosses the top of the grille, and two discreet but powerful adaptive headlights complete the lighting. Two reinforced pillars with protruding angles give the front of the quad a sense of character.
On the side, the lines are all geometric and sharply cut. At the rear, the lights are deployed in a thin line that extends across the entire width of the quad.
The new generation of CFORCE TECH GEN⁴ truly unveils an innovative visual identity, which will also be recognizable at night thanks to this narrow front and rear light bar. This feature was previously reserved mainly for cars.
The advantages of this upcoming generation are not only aesthetic. The rider’s experience and connectivity with the vehicle are also highlighted.
Technical specifications of the new generation.
Here are the key technical features of the CFORCE Tech GEN⁴:
- Safety has been improved with a new specialized all-terrain ABS system.
- OCA (Off-road Cornering Assist) braking improves the handling and safety of the ATV when cornering on difficult terrain by using the brakes to help control the vehicle. This system works by automatically applying the brakes to one or more wheels to help the ATV negotiate corners more effectively and avoid skidding.
- All Wheel Steering , is an innovative steering system where all four wheels can turn independently to improve handling and stability.
- Together, Electronic Stability Control combines with ABS for improved handling on all terrains.
- The new rear-wheel steering system works in conjunction with the front wheels to provide precise cornering. Combined with the off-road cornering assist, the turning radius is reduced by up to 30% more than other vehicles in its class.
- Adaptive headlights adjust to every incline and turn for better nighttime visibility.
- Adaptive hydraulic suspension allows ground clearance to be adjusted in seconds.
- The disconnectable stabilizer bar provides stability on normal terrain but disengages when the terrain becomes rough, offering increased suspension travel for greater flexibility.
- There are several features for slopes, such as Hill Descent Control, Auto Vehicle Hold, and Hill Start Assist, which work together to ensure the stability and control of the ATV.
- Finally, the ergonomics of the footrests have been redesigned for more intuitive riding.
CFORCE C4 GEN4
The CFORCE C4 GEN⁴ is a mid-sized single-seater ATV powered by a 408 cc liquid-cooled, four-stroke, DOHC single-cylinder engine. With a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a wheelbase of 1290 mm, the C4 is characterized by its agility and equipment.
Despite its status as a base model, it is very well equipped, offering a visible 5.9-inch LCD screen, a 2500 lb winch with synthetic cable, and LED headlights (even the reverse light). Its towing capacity reaches 612 kg (with brakes) and it has a generous load capacity on the luggage racks, making it perfectly suited for light work and leisure activities. Its dimensions are slightly different from the current version, as it has been completely redesigned.
Other models, such as the CFORCE C5 Touring, C6 Pro Touring, and 500cc and 650cc two-seater models, feature the same fourth-generation TECH GEN aesthetic.
It is still too early to know when these vehicles will be available in Canada.
