The Maverick X3 delivers a Definite, Powerful and Precise jaw-dropping package with its 154 hp Rotax 3-cylinder engine, industry-leading 24” (61 cm) of terrain-swallowing suspension travel, and a super low centre of gravity that clearly takes it a big leap into the next generation of high performance side-by-side vehicles.

  • The Can-Am Maverick features one of the most efficient and powerful 154 hp turbocharged inline triple Rotax motors. The Maverick X3 delivers a blistering 0-60 mph in 5 seconds. By turbocharging the engine, maximum power can be developed while keeping a very compact and economical 900 cc motor.

  • By starting with a clean sheet of paper, the engineering and design teams were able to build - from the ground up - a platform that would dramatically lower the centre of gravity and lower the ergonomic cell to give driver and passenger ultimate comfort and stability with a stance and proportions like no other side-by-side in the industry.

  • The dynamics of the Maverick X3 that enable it to handle any rough terrain at high speeds were increased due to the perfectly calibrated Fox shocks and massive suspension travel of 22” (56 cm) front and 24” (61 cm) rear. With two different widths to choose from - 64” (162.5 cm) or 72” (183 cm) - customers can pick the Maverick X3 that fits their playground. The Maverick X3 is the industry-leader without compromise when it comes to suspension.
