– Ultra-light and rigid chassis
The Can-Am Maverick X3 features an ultralight, rigid chassis made of state-of-the-art Dual-Phase 980 steel, which is lighter than traditional steel. This allows the chassis to deliver 53% better torsional stiffness while being 20% lighter than its closest competitor.

– Industry-leading cage rigidity
The Can-Am Maverick X3 cage is made of state-of-the-art Dual-Phase 980 steel, which is extremely light and rigid.

The 102-inch (259.1 cm) wheelbase, which is a full 12 inches (30.5 cm) longer than the Polaris RZR Turbo, improves off-road capability by supplying more comfort and a confidence-inspiring ride at higher speeds. The elongated wheelbase, optimal weight distribution (44/56) and ample ground clearance [14-inch (35.6 cm) X3 and X3 X ds; 15-inch (38.1 cm) on the X3 X rs] translates to optimum performance and stability in even the most challenging terrain. The 8-inch (20.4 cm) broader stance on the 72-inch (182.9 cm) wide Maverick X3 X rs Turbo R also provides favorable stability, when combined with its superior shocks and longer chassis.

– Superior grip and control
The Can-Am Maverick X3 wears 14-inch (35.6 cm) aluminum wheels. A 14-inch (35.6 cm) aluminum beadlock option is available with the X package. The mechanical fastening beadlock system makes it nearly impossible for the tire bead to break loose from the wheel during heavy acceleration or cornering. The Maverick X3 packages offer three different six-ply Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 tire sizes: 28-inch / 71.1 cm (X3), 29-inch / 73.7 cm (X3 X ds) and 30-inch / 76.2 cm (X3 X rs). The versatile tires offer sturdy lugs and a non-directional tread pattern for a smoother ride over a variety of terrains.

There are also two driving modes (Eco, Sport) and a Tri-Mode DPS system (Min, Med, Max) designed to optimize the desired amount of steering assist for varying conditions. All Maverick X3 models come with Intelligent Throttle Control (iTCTM), which provides smooth throttle delivery even if the driver’s foot is bouncing in rough terrain.

Owners will focus more on driving and less on refueling with the Can-Am Maverick X3, as it offers an 10.5-gallon (40 L) fuel tank, which is the largest in the industry.

– Ample storage/cargo capacity
The Can-Am Maverick X3 side-by-side vehicle offers a total of 2.5 gallon / 9.4 L of storage by way of a fixed glove box, center console and two cup holders, because added convenience improves the overall performance package.

The rack works with the Can-Am LinQ quick-attach accessory system, allowing easy installation and removal of a storage box, rack extension, bag or other items. The centre console includes a lighter-type DC outlet as well.

Power comes from an inline triple-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled Rotax ACE 900cc engine. The hearty power plant is located in the rear of the chassis, resulting in lower cockpit noise, vibration and heat. It also has iridium spark plugs, which provide improved combustion, longer life and lower maintenance.

– Ultra-efficient intercooler
The Can-Am Maverick X3 family has a light and durable intercooler optimized for maximum cooling efficiency. Its large fan and optimized placement are engineered for performance without compromising visibility.

– Enhanced exhaust
The Can-Am Maverick X3 vehicle’s turbine housing is integrated with the exhaust manifold, providing better airflow and minimizing pressure drop so the turbo has no lag. The large, sport-inspired exhaust has a unique and powerful sound signature, which only a Rotax 3-cylinder engine can deliver!

– High-response QRS-X CVT
The Can-Am Maverick X3 side-by-side vehicle has a high-performance QRS-X CVT transmission in a compact gearbox that’s optimized to work in combination with the turbo to virtually eliminate turbo lag and enhance throttle response without torque interruption.

– Durable QRS-X CVT design
The QRS-X CVT transmission converts the Can-Am Maverick X3 family’s enormous power into extreme capability with a long, wide, thick drive belt and a robust three-roller pulley design that includes integrated cooling fins for enhanced air flow. It is a gear-on-gear system with no rear prop shaft for more durability and no maintenance required.

– Advanced cooling
The Can-Am Maverick X3 side-by-side vehicle features improved airflow for optimized CVT cooling which provides better protection for longer-lasting CVT components (e.g. longer belt durability) and less maintenance.

– Simple transmission maintenance
