The dfferent types of ATVs range in size from as small as 50cc youth ATVs up to 700cc Sport quads, 800cc Utility ATVs, and SxS' going over 1,000cc.
The size of most engines are measured in Cubic Centimeters, or "cc". This measures the volume of the cylinder. For multiple cylinder engines, the "cc" measurement is of all cylinders combined.
Aside from the number of wheels and different sizes of ATVs, there is also a distinct difference in ATVs based on its intended application. The most popular types of 4 wheeled ATVs are the 4-wheel drive Utility ATVs, Sport ATVs and Side by Sides.

Utility ATVs

Utility ATVs are the most popular type of ATV. This type of ATV typically has short travel suspension, a big motor and more accessories designed for working or hunting.
Utility ATVs are used in industries such as agriculture and ranching where repair work, feeding and other tasks are done. They are also very popular with hunters who traverse rugged terrain, often carrying heavy cargo. Electric ATVs are becoming popular with hunters because they can move more quietly.

You see a lot of Utility ATVs being ridden at recreation spots like desert OHV areas and on private property. Some are bought with every intention of being used as a tool but often see just as much recreation time, which isn’t a bad thing.

Sport ATVs

Sport ATVs are the second most popular type of ATV in the USA. Ranging in size from 250cc on up to 700cc, these All Terrain Vehicles are lightweight, have lots of suspension to handle jumps, bumps and turns. These quads can be highly modified and enhanced with literally thousands of accessories to alter style and performance based on numerous criteria.
Sport ATVs are much quicker than their utility based brethren and extra care goes in to designing them to be as light as possible with very forgiving suspension and responsive engines. Sport quads are used in sanctioned racing because of their speed and suspension advantages over other different types of ATVs.

Side by Side ATVs are sometimes referred to as SxS or Rhino’s. They’re like golf carts, only with suspension equal to that of sport quads, with larger, more powerful motors. SxS, with their ability to carry passengers and cargo, their light weight, extreme suspension and short wheel-base, are able to take you and your friends to places you might not have thought possible.
SxS are becoming the most popular of the different types of ATVs in small rural communities. Some towns allow them to be registered on-highway use. They are used as “pit vehicles” at races and other events to provide more versatility in transportation and mobility. Fire and Rescue or military often get them highly modified for specific applications.
Children's ATVs

Childrens ATVs are smaller than the other different types of ATVs. They usually come between 50cc and 110cc, and in some cases go up to 125cc. They offer little or no suspension, little power and an automatic transmission or no gears at all.
Youth ATVs are geared towards riders with little or no previous riding experience. Children’s ATVs are usually limited to weights that do not exceed around 100 to 150 lbs depending on the make and model.
Plan  your ATV Make It The Most Memorable one
Whether you’re planning a Sunday morning run up the trail near your home, or a Tuesday run in the endless, trail-less sand dunes, knowing how to plan your trip can make it much more exciting, memorable and safe.

Get Yourself and Your Ride in Good Working Order

Because your 4-wheeler is a machine, just like your car, it can and will break from time to time, so be prepared for it both physically and mentally. Being sick or injured is not a good time to be on an ATV, especially if it's going to be a long or 'rough' ride.
Prepare your quad by checking all the fluid levels and condition including oil, brake fluid and engine coolant on liquid cooled machines. Make sure the tires aren't showing signs of wear and that you have the proper air pressure. Check if the brakes, clutch and throttle cables are adjusted and lubricated as necessary and that the battery and all the lights are working, if equipped.
If you're not in good shape both mentally and physically or your quad isn't running good it can make your trip long and un-favorable, as well as dangerous.

Take Necessary Items for Repairs or Emergencies

Along with getting yourself and your ride ready, you'll want to make a list of items to take with you, including an emergency kit. This list of items should serve as a good reference for you to plan your great day ride. You'll need a back-pack, bungee cords or some other container to pack these items.

• Water
• First aid kit
• Flashlight
• Tow strap
• Tool Kit
• Tire repair kit with pump
• Warm clothes
• Cell phone
• Map
• GPS
• Cash and credit cards (including change for pay phones)
• Camera

Keep Important Items in Easy Reach

Be sure to pack the necessities towards the top where they will be easily available. Things like maps, water, cell phone and camera should all be within easy reach.

Be Prepared to Repair

A good tool kit is important and it doesn't need to be very big. The kit that should have come with your 4-wheeler (usually found under the seat or behind a body panel on some older models) has most of the tools you'll need.
If your ATV doesn't have a tool kit, or you've found that the one supplied with your quad is less than reliable,

Have a Plan and Share It

If you're going on a long ATV ride try to plan your stops beforehand. If you are not familiar with the area you’ll be riding in, review a map and try to pick places to stop and rest along the way that might provide something fun, interesting or scenic to enjoy as you rest.
It’s a good idea to let someone know where you’re going and when you expect to return, just in case. If you are going to be reasonably late getting back, try to contact those you notified about your trip that you’ll be late and what your new ETA might be.
Remember: Some things just can’t be fixed while you're out on the trail, so it’s a good idea to ride with others, just in case.
