Can-Am Outlander 400 EFI
4x4 ATV Key Features
Rotax®
400 EFI engine // With
32 HP, this advanced single-cylinder
engine remains the most powerful
engine in its class and features
a liquid-cooled, single overhead
cam power plant with four valves
per cylinder. It is also fed by
a 46mm downdraft throttle body with
a single VDO Siemens fuel injector.
The sophisticated electronic fuel
injection system automatically keeps
the 400 engine’s performance
at its peak, regardless of temperature
or altitude. The progressive throttle
ensures power is manageable whether
in precise rock crawling or opening
it up on the straights.
Visco-Lok
front differential // Progressively
transfers power from a slipping
front wheel to the gripping one
– automatically with no buttons
to push or levers to pull. Plus,
there’s no wheel hop or driveline
wind-up so the system is totally
transparent to the driver and extremely
easy to steer. Can lock up to 100%
with no rev or speed limiter.
Torsional
Trailing arm Independent (TTI) rear
suspension // Trailing
arm design provides excellent control
and stability, especially in rough
terrain by eliminating scrub. Wheels
move rearward as they move up and
down producing a smoother ride than
the competition, and the ATV does
not waver down the trail. Plus,
TTI has 75% fewer parts than competitive
designs and significantly decreases
tire wear.
Surrounding
Spar Technology (SST™) frame
// Rather than the common
tubular box, the SST frame is a
single spar that is lightweight,
yet strong. It contributes to the
Outlander model’s benchmark
power-to-weight ratio and low centre
of gravity.
25-inch
(63cm) Carlisle Trail Wolf tire
// Lightweight and great
handling tires for the base model.
Inboard
disc brakes // Unique design
both front and rear reduces unsprung
weight and helps centralize masses
for more responsive handling. Also
better protects against mud and
debris.
Digitally
Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S.™)
// The industry’s
first standard anti-theft device.
Electronic code in key must match
code in ECU to start.
Front and
rear steel racks // 100-pound
(45 kg) capacity in front, 200 pounds
(90 kg) in back.
