The AT4 is purpose-built for off-road adventure while keeping you comfortable. It's powered by a 3.0L Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine with a 10-speed automatic-delivering impressive torque and efficiency for tough terrain. The suspension is tuned specifically for off-road performance, and you roll on aggressive 18" Goodyear Wrangler Territory mud-terrain tires.

Utility features include an integrated trailer brake controller and a Tailgate with EZ Lift assist, power lock, and release for genuine off-road use. Inside, you get premium touches like heated rear seats, a Bose Premium Sound System, and available Head-Up Display-because adventure doesn't mean roughing it. Rainsense wipers add convenience in changing weather. The AT4 blends rugged capability with refined comfort. Ready to explore it? Call Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 to arrange a test drive.
