2026 Can-Am Outlander XT 700

Why to buy the 2026 Can‑Am Outlander XT 700

Here are several compelling reasons to consider buying this ATV — especially relevant if you’re in Moncton or somewhere in New Brunswick where terrain, weather & utility count:

✅ Strong performance for its class

• Powered by a 650 cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine (Rotax® ACE) delivering about 50 hp and 41 lb-ft of torque. 

• Selectable 2WD/4WD with an auto-locking front differential (Visco-Lok® QE) gives you traction when you need it. 

• A CVT transmission (pDrive) means easier operation and fewer gear-shifts to think about. 

✅ Good utility + trail readiness

• Ground clearance of around 12.5″ (≈ 31.8 cm) for the 700 XT version gives decent off-road capability. 

• Equipped with features like a 3,500 lb (≈ 1,588 kg) synthetic winch, front and rear bumpers, full skid plate — useful if you’re doing work, hauling, or getting into tougher terrain.

• Tires and wheels: for the XT version you get 26-inch XPS Trail Force tires on 14″ aluminium wheels. That means better ground cover and durability. 

✅ Operator comfort & tech

• Tri-Mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS) is available, making steering lighter & less fatiguing. 

• Smart driving modes: Work / Standard / Sport modes plus Intelligent Engine Braking (iEB™) help tailor the ride to your use (trail vs work).

• Digital display, glovebox, storage compartments — nice touches that elevate the ride beyond purely functional. 

✅ Value proposition

• For what you get in features + capability, this machine offers good value relative to many competitors.

• If you use it for both fun (trail, woods) and practical work (farm, property, hauling), it’s a versatile pick.

  🎯 Summary

If you’re looking for a rugged, feature-rich ATV that balances trail performance and utility work, the 2026 Can-Am Outlander XT 700 is THE ONE. It offers solid power, modern tech, good off-road gear, and real versatility for work/play.
