Can-Am has introduced its 2018 Maverick Trail family of 50-inch class side-by-side vehicles. The new, two-person Can-Am vehicles are designed to present trail riders and hunters with new levels of control, convenience, comfort and versatility.

The durable, gear-on-gear rear differential and helical gear transmission is designed to ensure quietness.

The Maverick Trail DPS vehicles include a selectable 2WD / 4WD with Visco-Lok QE auto-locking front differential and lockable rear differential. The system offers a 4-mode traction system (2x4 open rear / 2x4 lockable rear / 4x4 open / 4x4 locked rear for maximum traction.

The Can-Am Maverick Trail family of side-by-side vehicles comes well equipped (starting at $10,999) from the factory, but with more than 100 Can-Am accessories.

Four total Maverick Trail vehicles (Maverick Trail 800 / Maverick Trail DPS 800 / Maverick Trail 1000 / Maverick Trail DPS 1000) exist in the lineup. The vehicles are available in four color schemes: White (base vehicles), Can-Am Red, Sunburst Yellow and Mossy Oak Break-Up Country Camo (DPS models).
