Abstract
A utility vehicle includes a pair of left and right wheels; a drive source that drives the wheels; and a control device capable of individually controlling rotational speeds of the wheels, wherein in a case where the control device determines that a predetermined tight turn execution condition has been satisfied, the control device executes tight turn control for controlling the wheels so that a rotational speed of an outer wheel becomes relatively higher than a rotational speed of an inner wheel in a turning direction of the utility vehicle.
