A more powerful 46-horsepower Rotax engine and the G2 Surrounding Spar Technology (SST) frame and suspension updates make for a new-from-the-ground-up 2013 Outlander 500 line of ATVs. The Outlander 500 is available in three trim levels in three colors for 2013. The Outlander 500 model includes 12-inch steel wheels. Tri-Mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS) with Visco-Lok QE and cast-aluminum wheels are available on the new, value-based Outlander 500 DPS package. The XT package offers the two standard colors or NEXT G-1 Vista camouflage plastic.

Using geometric principles of design we call Geometric Contact Control, Can-Am engineers designed the Surround Spar Technology (G2) chassis to be able to deliver the hardcore performance the Can-Am brand is known for, yet enhance the overall comfort of the vehicle at all levels of riding.

The Outlander 500 maintains its unrivalled engine performance with a more powerful 46-horsepower 499cc Rotax VTwin, which represents a 15-percent increase in power from the previous Rotax 500 powerplant. The stylish Outlander 500 offers precision handling and point-and-shoot dynamics that blend well with its superior comfort, ergonomics and conveniences levels. The end result is a modern do-it-all ATV with a no-compromise makeup.
