When BRP unveiled the 2018 Can-Am Maverick Trail 1000 DPS, it was built to go up against another 50-inch Sport Side-by-Side – the Polaris RZR 900 EPS.
Side-by-Sides have proven to be an amazing platform for exploring the wild, and doing so with a big smile on your face. It is made all the better by being able to share that fun with a passenger. As machines got bigger, the fun factor went higher and higher. There was a problem, however, that put a damper on things. Many ATV trails across North American were limited to machines that met the measurements of the standard ATV – 50 inches.
Most of the top performance Side-by-Sides started out around 60 inches and went up from there. Polaris, however developed its RZR lineup to include a 50-inch wide machine that was big on fun and narrow on width. Arctic Cat followed suit, and folks wondered if Can-Am would ever go that route, especially knowing how much performance they were packing into the Maverick X3 lineup. The wait is now over, as the 2018 Can-Am Maverick Trail 1000 DPS is here and ready to hit the trails. Let’s see how it stacks up against the 2018 Polaris RZR 900 EPS…by the numbers.
