The biggest update for 2027 is the addition of Can-Am’s second-generation Rotax dual-clutch transmission across the entire Maverick R lineup. Previously introduced on select Maverick R models, the updated transmission now features an Extra Low gear designed to improve power delivery and control in low-speed, technical terrain. The transmission also receives reinforced components engineered to handle the additional torque, giving Maverick R drivers improved capability when navigating challenging obstacles or demanding off-road conditions.

The 2027 Maverick R lineup also receives several chassis and cockpit refinements. Integrated window nets are now standard across Maverick R and Maverick X3 models, providing a race-inspired appearance while offering additional protection from the elements. Stiffer steel-braided front and rear brake lines are also standard, helping improve braking performance. Can-Am has also added double-bonded bushings to the front suspension to reduce squeaking and maintenance requirements.

Can-Am is also expanding its trail-focused offerings with the return of the X package for the Maverick Trail and Maverick Sport. The package adds features aimed at riders looking for greater trail capability and value, including LED lighting, full doors and a roof. Maverick Sport X models also receive enhanced suspension components.

The 2027 Can-Am side-by-side lineup is scheduled to arrive at dealerswith the new model-year updates beginning in the coming months.
