Can-Am ATVs and UTVs - Models, Prices, Specs and Reviews (2025)

Can-Am ATVs have been around since 1998 when the original Bombardier Traxter was introduced.

This move towards ATVs came decades after both Bombardier’s Ski-Doo models essentially created the snowmobile industry and and Sea-Doo models helped popularize personal watercraft.

Just one year after the Traxter appeared, the powerful and innovative Bombardier DS 650 Sport ATV made its debut.

Bombardier introduced the Outlander Utility ATV models in 2002 and they are still making them today. That same year, The Traxter MAX was unveiled as Bombardier’s first two-seat ATV – a category the company has focussed on for many years now.

Bombardier partnered with John Deere to build Deere-branded Utility ATVs in 2003 and in 2004 the BRP brand came into existence and with it, the Can-Am ATVs nameplate.

The lineup of Can-Am ATVs grew quickly and UTV models followed with the Commander in 2011, the Maverick in 2013, and the Defender Utility UTV in 2016.

Maverick Trail

The Can-Am Maverick family of Sport UTVs can be broken down into three distinct classes – Trail, Sport and X3. The most affordable of the bunch is the Trail, which starts as low as $11,399 and is just 50 inches wide so it is legal on most trails. Maverick Trail models are available with two different engine options – a 51-horsepower 800 and a 75-horsepower 1000. All Trail models feature a dual A-arm front suspension with a torsional trailing arm rear design, 26-inch Carlisle ACT tires, integrated front steel bumper, and full skid plate.
