2026 Can-Am Defender XT HD11

💪 Power That Works as Hard as You Do

• Strong all-new HD11 engine – a 999 cc triple-cylinder Rotax® that makes ~95 hp and 70 lb-ft of torque — plenty of grunt to pull heavy loads or climb steep trails. 

• Smooth CVT Transmission with pDrive and Quick Response System for seamless power delivery in all conditions.

🚜 Utility-First Performance

• 4,500 lb (2,041 kg) winch included — lets you pull stuck gear, other vehicles, or drag logs with confidence.

• Selectable 2WD/4WD + Quick-4Lok auto-locking front diff gives traction where you need it without fuss. 

• Class-leading towing and cargo chops — this Defender was built to haul gear, feed, tools, or whatever your day throws at it. 

🛞 Tough Ride, Ready for Anything

• Ground clearance around 14″ and 12″ suspension travel — smooth over bumps and big obstacles.

• Heavy-duty protection like skid plates, robust bumper, full hard roof and mudguards — basically armor for your off-road adventuring. 

🧠 Smart Comfort & Control

• 10.25″ touchscreen option (on some trims) for easy access to vehicle info, cameras, and controls.

• Work / Sport / Normal modes + speed limiter give you the perfect balance of power and control for every situation.

• Adjustable seating and ergonomic cab layout make long days feel shorter.
