Abstract

A multipurpose vehicle includes an engine that has a plurality of cylinders, a traveling vehicle body that has a traveling device that is driven based on a driving force of the engine, a man-operable accelerator operating tool, a controller that controls a fuel injection quantity with respect to the plurality of cylinders of the engine based on an amount of operation of the accelerator operating tool, and a vehicle speed sensor that detects a traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body. If the traveling speed of the traveling vehicle body reaches or exceeds a set maximum traveling speed, the controller suppresses the fuel injection quantity supplied with respect only to one/some of the plurality of cylinders, irrespective of the amount of operation of the accelerator operating tool.
