2012 Can-Am Outlander MAX 500 XT Review
Say hello to the 40.4-hp Outlander MAX 500, the most powerful ATV in the category. Featuring the ability to go from one-up to two-up in seconds, thanks to its innovative Convertible Rack/Seat System (CRS). Built with the passenger in mind, it’s equipped with a comfortable raised rear seat, sturdy ergonomic passenger handgrips and raised floorboards. For more information, just pin the throttle.
By giving the Outlander MAX XT our new Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering*, we’ve created an ATV that makes two-up riding even more comfortable and easy to enjoy. With separate settings the rider can choose from to fit a variety of situations and preferred styles. Just sit back, with a passenger or alone, and enjoy the ride. Plus there’s a 3,000 lb winch, front and rear bumpers, cast-aluminum wheels and more. It’s loaded with the features that let you ride farther without worrying if you’re prepared.
*Available on Outlander MAX 800R, 650 and 500 XT
2012 Can-Am Outlander MAX 500 XT Key Features
- The XT package offers all the standard Outlander MAX 500 features, PLUS: Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS)
- Visco-Lok QE auto-locking front differential
- 3,000-lb Warn winch
- Heavy-duty front and rear bumpers

2012 Can-Am Outlander MAX 500 XT Features and Benefits
40.4-hp Rotax 500 V-Twin, liquid-cooled EFI engine
This powerful 40.4-hp engine is liquid cooled with SOHC with 4 valves per cylinder and features 2 injectors for a precise fuel delivery and throttle response. The only V-Twin in its class.
Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS™)
The Tri-Mode DPS™ features three rider-selectable modes (MIN, MED and MAX) of steering depending on rider preference. The system is designed to offer less assist at high speed and more assist at low speed. This technology also includes a Direct Link setup that uses advanced magnetic field sensors for faster response to steering input than competitive technology, which then minimizes steering lag. Less kickback and more trail feedback is supplied to the operator because of the 50:1 final gear ratio, which is the largest in the industry. A high-capacity 50-amp motor means the DPS™ will never fade with heavy use and all DPS™-equipped models also come with the Visco-Lok† QE.
Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with engine braking
For ease of use, you can count on the CVT transmission that features engine braking to help slow you when going downhill.
Visco-Lok† QE auto-locking front differential
All DPS-equipped models have the Visco-Lok† QE calibration up front, which has all the features and benefits of the standard quick-engagement Visco-Lok† differential, but with an even quicker engagement point. This differential, unlike some competitors' differentials, does not have a speed limiter.
MacPherson front suspension
This front suspension provides a plush and precise ride.
Cast-aluminum wheels with machined finish
Lightweight 4 twin-spoke design gives an aggressive and premium look to the Outlander
Torsional Trailing arm Independent rear suspension (TTI)
The only independent rear suspension that eliminates scrub and camber changes, meaning the wheels pivot up and down rather than in a butterfly motion like competitors' systems. This ensures the vehicle only moves in the direction you point it. With fewer moving parts than competitive systems. The proven TTI rear suspension has a suspension travel of 9 in. (229 mm) .
25-in. Carlisle8 ACT radial tires
These 25-in., 3-ply tires feature a tread pattern that is aggressive enough to tackle the toughest terrain, yet provide a smooth ride in a lightweight package.
Center skid plate
Center skid plate made of 5-mm thick injection-molded high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Offers better frame protection for riding in rough terrain.
3,000-lb WARN8 winch with roller fairlead, wired remote control & integrated remote storage
This powerful 3,000-lb (1,361 kg) capacity factory-installed winch is equipped with a wired remote control that neatly stows in the underside of the ATV's front storage compartment cover.
Steel racks with 300 lb (136 kg) capacity
Heavy-duty front and rear bumpers
The front and rear bumpers are factory installed and are covered by a factory warranty. The added protection gives peace of mind in rugged conditions.
Multi-function digital gauge
Tells the rider everything in one easy glance. Our easy-to-read multi-function gauge is equipped with a digital information center including a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, trip meter, gear position, hour meter, engine hour meter, temperature and engine lights, fuel gauge and a clock function.
Handlebar with wind deflectors
Premium look and protection from brush and cold.
D.E.S.S.™ (Digitally Encoded Security System)
Outlander MAX models feature the exclusive D.E.S.S.™ anti-theft system. The ATV will not start unless a coded microchip in the key matches a code embedded in the engine control module. It means only you can start your vehicle.
650-W magneto
This package provides a more powerful magneto with 650 watts of power output.
Ergonomic passenger backrest
A well-padded active backrest moves with rider for better comfort.
Convertible Rack/Seat system (CRS) with storage box
Takes the Outlander MAX from one-up to two-up in a matter of seconds. Gives you plenty of storage in one-up mode and unmatched comfort and convenience for your passenger when riding two-up -all without tools.
Raised floorboards - Raised passenger floorboards for added comfort.
Multi-position passenger handgrips - For added comfort.
