“How am I supposed to ride something like this?”—Mother’s surprising yard-driving debut! FARMING BOY 2.0A Test Drive

We visited a mother’s home in Haenam, South Jeolla, a village at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula where broad fields meet the sea.

After supporting her family through years of farm work, the mother had developed aches throughout her back and legs. She had been carrying heavy fertiliser and crops every day with a handcart.

To make things a little easier for her, we loaded up the sturdy and safe Korean-made multipurpose electric utility vehicle, FARMING BOY 2.0A, and drove over.

1. Arriving in Haenam at the Village at the Southern Tip, Half Excited and Half Worried for the First Meeting

As we unloaded the blue FARMING BOY 2.0A from the truck, the mother approached and said her first words.

“Oh my, I’m getting on in years—how am I supposed to ride a machine like this?”

She hesitated, slightly intimidated by the unfamiliar utility vehicle. Understanding these concerns among older adults, Lohwell SM began providing patient one-on-one guidance until she became comfortable with it.

2. A Surprising Yard Drive with Just One Button and No Complicated Gears

“Mother, just click to release the brake, then slowly and gently pull the handle.”

The mother took hold of the steering wheel, released the parking brake as instructed, and gently pulled the handle.

It moved using the forward/reverse buttons and speed lever, without complicated clutches or gear changes, and her initial tension soon disappeared.

After smoothly driving around the yard once, then twice, her expression soon brightened.

“Oh, it’s much easier and more comfortable than I expected!”

she exclaimed.

3. Even the Yard Dog Trotted Along—An Eco-Friendly Electric Vehicle Without Exhaust or Noise

As the mother leisurely drove around the yard, the dog there was not afraid of the vehicle and trotted along behind it.

That is because it produces none of the loud engine noise or exhaust typical of conventional cultivators and engine-powered utility vehicles.
Thanks to its quiet electric motor, it can also be driven cleanly through village lanes without disturbing neighbours with noise.
