2026 KAWASAKI Teryx KRX 1000 Blackout Edition

Built from the ground up to be the ultimate sport side x sides, the Teryx KRX® 1000 lineup is not to be denied by tough trails. The game-changing Teryx KRX 1000 series inspires confidence with a terrain-taming combination of power, performance, and capability. Add in an unprecedented level of comfort and the build quality of Kawasaki side x sides, and you've got everything you need to push the limits for an adventure of a lifetime.

Bred for The Rocks

Introducing the machine built for total rock domination: the Teryx KRX® 1000 Rock Edition side x side. Engineered for precision and control, this is the ultimate tool for conquering otherworldly formations. If you want to rule the rocks, this side x side is purpose-built for you.

Rock & Roll

Specifically designed for rock crawling, the 32-in Maxxis® Roxxzilla tires’ tread pattern and sticky rubber compound optimize grip when climbing over rocks and driving across desert terrain. With durable 8-ply construction, these tires offer excellent puncture resistance, and the large 32-in diameter increases ground clearance for optimal crawling.

The offset of the bead-lock wheels on the Teryx KRX® 1000 Rock Edition results in a broader stance than other Teryx KRX® 1000 models (70.1-in vs. 68.1-in), for optimized lateral stability and better visibility of the front wheels from inside the cab for more precise placement. The bead-lock wheels also allow for the Maxxis® Roxxzilla tires to be set at lower pressures, allowing for better contact and traction.

Defend Against the Elements

Skid plates, front A-arm and trailing arm guards made from high-quality High Molecular Weight (HMW) polyethylene offer enhanced protection while crawling over obstacles. The HMW guards also reduce the chance of getting hooked on obstacles, further enhancing off-road capability.

Adapt to The Crawl

FOX 2.5 LSC Piggyback shocks are specially tuned to complement the large diameter tires for optimized traction on crawls and when on the move between formations.

Built-In Sun Block

A specially designed color-matched KQR™ Sport Roof helps to shelter you from harsh weather, and the contoured lightweight design allows it to be removed or installed without tools.

More Than Ready

The WARN® VRX 45-S powersport winch offers 4,500-lb capacity at the ready along with an illuminated dash-mounted rocker switch and corded remote. There are also front and rear-mounted tow hooks.

Built to Conquer

The Teryx KRX® 1000 sport side x side is purpose-built to outmuscle all terrain and more than ready to overpower any challenge.

Built for The Extreme

A compact 999cc parallel-twin engine delivers high power and high torque. Well-balanced performance is ideal for handling a wide range of situations at both high and low speeds, from trail running to technical navigation.

Cvt & Centrifugal Clutch

A large-volume Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) and centrifugal clutch deliver smooth acceleration and precise throttle control to help you maintain positive traction in challenging technical sections. Seamless engine braking provides consistent deceleration on downhills.

Power in Your Hands

Dual power modes offer versatility for driver preference and different terrain conditions: low power for a milder throttle response, or full power for responsive high-speed performance.

On-The-Fly

Switch between 2WD/4WD and front differential lock on the fly with electrically selectable drive modes.

Tested by Tough Terrain

To achieve exceptional performance without sacrificing comfort, it was imperative for the Teryx KRX® 1000 sport side x side to be equipped with a chassis with a commanding footprint. High ground clearance is complemented by arched front A-arms and 4-link rear trailing arms.

Class-Leading Long-Travel Suspension

Double wishbone front suspension provides an impressive 19 in of travel up front while the 4-link trailing-arm suspension delivers 21 in of travel in the rear.

Commanding Footprint

The long 99-in wheelbase, combined with the long suspension travel, contributes to dynamic stability and ride comfort, while the wide 59-in tread stance helps the vehicle maintain its line when cornering.

High Stance

Massive ground clearance allows the class-leading suspension travel to fully articulate for a smooth, confident ride. The angled shape of the underbody complements the ample clearance to enhance the chassis capability to navigate technical terrain.

Engineered to Outmuscle

The Teryx KRX® 1000 sport side x side is built to be the toughest machine out on the trails, factory-equipped with components that are often added after purchase.

Explore New Territory

The highly rigid frame features an integrated 6-point Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS). Large-diameter A-arms and trailing arms utilize an arc shape for greater clearance, also allowing the long-travel suspension to soak up more terrain.

Tougher Than Trails

Steel and composite skid plates provide ample coverage while steel wheel wells also help protect the vehicle from trail debris.

Confident & Aggressive

Strong and progressive stopping power is provided by 4-wheel hydraulic disc brakes. The 15-in aluminum wheels add to the aggressive styling and feature bead-lock rims designed to hold the tire beads in place in off-road riding situations.

Cargo & Service Access

The large rear carrier space is capable of holding up to 350 lbs. Secure your cargo with 4 integrated tie-down hooks. It's simple to check the engine oil level (using the built-in sight glass) and the CVT belt. It's also easy to access the oil fill, oil filter, and air cleaner.

Function Meets Form

The Teryx KRX® 1000 represents a new generation of styling for Kawasaki sport side x sides. Design is elevated to the next level with an aggressive look to complement its groundbreaking performance.

Aggressive Styling

Fierce-looking shocks, massive front grille and LED headlights, taillights, and line-type position lamps reflect the enormity of the trail-conquering potential. 8-spoke cast aluminum wheels and colored beadlock rings give an aftermarket flare.

Ride in Comfort

Go the extra mile in comfort with adjustable, thick cushioned, high-back bucket seats, tilt steering, and integrated half doors. Speed-sensitive Electric Power Steering (EPS) provides optimized steering assistance and helps absorb steering kickback for enhanced handling and reduced driver fatigue.

Cab Convenience

The cab offers a surprising level of convenience for all-day excursions, like 5 easy-access cup holders, and a 12V DC power outlet. The large glove box and dashboard storage compartments provide a secure place to stash personal items.

Power Your Fun

Bring your accessories on the adventure with you. With a built-in high output 1,120W (80A) AC generator featuring two output connections, you can power all your additional fun on the go.
