2026 CFMOTO ZFORCE Z10: Overkill Comes Standard
If you thought CFMOTO was only building affordable recreational side-by-sides, the 2026 CFMOTO ZFORCE Z10 is here to change your mind.
The all-new 2026 CFMOTO Z10 is a high-performance sport UTV designed to compete in a completely different class. With a turbocharged 998cc triple-cylinder engine producing an impressive 154 horsepower, FOX electronic suspension, a reinforced chassis, advanced technology, and aggressive styling, the Z10 is built for riders who want serious performance without starting with a serious price tag.
CFMOTO describes the Z10 with a simple philosophy: “Overkill Comes Standard.” After spending time developing and testing the machine, CFMOTO built the Z10 to deliver the power, suspension performance, technology, and durability expected from a modern high-performance side-by-side.
154 Horsepower From a Turbocharged Triple-Cylinder Engine
At the heart of the 2026 CFMOTO Z10 is a 998cc turbocharged three-cylinder engine.
This isn’t a mild recreational powerplant. The Z10 produces up to 154 horsepower and 107 lb-ft of torque, giving this sport side-by-side the power needed to attack everything from wide-open trails and dunes to technical terrain.
The engine is liquid-cooled, DOHC, electronically fuel injected, and paired with a CVT transmission. CFMOTO also gives the driver three selectable power modes, allowing the character of the engine to be adjusted to the terrain and riding conditions.
Whether you’re looking for hard acceleration, controlled trail riding, or the ability to open it up when the trail gets wide, the Z10 gives you the tools to tailor the experience.
FOX QSE Performance Elite Suspension
Horsepower is only part of the equation when you’re building a high-performance UTV. All that power needs to be controlled when the terrain gets rough.
That’s where the Z10’s suspension package comes into play.
The 2026 CFMOTO ZFORCE Z10 features FOX QSE electronic shocks with selectable settings that allow the driver to adjust suspension characteristics between Soft, Medium, and Firm modes.
Even better, the system can be adjusted from the driver’s seat using controls integrated into the cockpit. That means you can change the suspension setup without having to climb out and manually adjust the shocks every time the terrain changes.
The Z10 also features high-clearance front suspension with approximately 17 inches of front suspension travel and a QuadLink Gen II trailing-arm rear suspension with approximately 20 inches of travel.
With 14-inch wheels and aggressive 30-inch tires, the Z10 is designed to keep its tires planted while soaking up the terrain underneath it.
Built Around a Reinforced Chassis
A high-performance side-by-side needs more than a powerful engine and expensive shocks.
The Z10 features a rigid, fully welded chassis structure engineered around the demands of high-performance off-road riding. The suspension geometry, chassis, and powertrain are designed to work together so the machine remains composed when the trail gets rough.
With approximately 14 inches of ground clearance, the Z10 is also designed to give riders the clearance they need when navigating rocks, ruts, obstacles, and uneven terrain.
The result is a machine designed to encourage you to push harder while maintaining confidence behind the wheel.
Advanced Technology in the Cockpit
The 2026 CFMOTO Z10 isn’t just about horsepower and suspension.
Step inside the cockpit and you’ll find a technology package that makes the Z10 feel just as advanced as it performs.
A large 12.3-inch CFMOTO RideSync touchscreen serves as the centerpiece of the dashboard. The system provides access to vehicle information and connectivity features, including Apple CarPlay.
The Z10 also incorporates CFMOTO Ride technology, allowing riders to access vehicle information and other connected features through the CFMOTO Ride application.
A dedicated driver display keeps important information directly in front of the driver, while the integrated controls help keep the cockpit organized and easy to operate.
A backup camera is also included, giving drivers additional visibility when maneuvering the machine.
Four Selectable EPS Modes
The terrain can change quickly when you’re riding off-road, and steering feel can make a big difference.
The Z10 features electronic power steering with four selectable steering modes. This allows the driver to adjust steering assistance based on personal preference and the type of terrain being tackled.
Whether you’re navigating tight technical trails or moving quickly through open terrain, the adjustable EPS system gives the driver another way to personalize the machine.
2WD, 4WD and 4WD Lock
When conditions get difficult, traction becomes everything.
The 2026 CFMOTO ZFORCE Z10 features selectable 2WD, 4WD, and 4WD Lock modes. This gives the driver the ability to choose how the machine delivers power depending on the terrain.
Open up the trail in 2WD, switch into 4WD when traction becomes limited, or engage 4WD Lock when the going gets especially challenging.
It’s another example of how CFMOTO designed the Z10 to be more than a straight-line performance machine.
4,500-Pound Winch Comes Standard
Performance doesn’t mean the Z10 has to leave practicality behind.
A 4,500-pound winch is standard equipment on the Z10, providing a valuable recovery tool when you’re exploring challenging terrain.
The Z10 is also designed with an accessory-ready electrical system, making it easier to customize the machine with the equipment and accessories you want for your own style of riding.
Aggressive Styling With a Purpose
There’s no mistaking the 2026 CFMOTO Z10 for an ordinary side-by-side.
The aggressive bodywork, low-profile stance, large tires, performance-focused cockpit, and available Lava Orange and Nebula Black finishes give the Z10 a look that matches its performance.
But the Z10 isn’t designed simply to look fast.
Every major component of the machine is built around the idea of creating a high-performance off-road experience—from the turbocharged engine and FOX suspension to the reinforced chassis and driver-focused cockpit.
