POWER AND PERFORMANCE
BRP with Can-Am™ has raised the stakes once again in a segment where other ATV's dare not to tread. Returning for 2010 is the highly successful Can-Am Renegade™ 800R with its unique blend of sport and utility trail mannerscapabilities, and this year Can-Am offers substantial updates to the premium Renegade X™ package. This model year, BRP introduces the Can-Am Renegade 800R X xc package, which builds on Can-Am ATV's promise to deliver performance-oriented packages for the rider who demands the best out on the trail. The X xc was developed through our high level cross-country race experience. Specific features like the industry's first front sway bar and X xc-specific DPS power steering calibration are a direct result of that racing experience.
And just like the larger version, the 2010 Renegade™ EFI 500 is the ultimate package for the performance orientated trail rider who wants the looks and performance of a sport ATV, but the all-terrain capability of a 4x4 utility ATV. The powerful V-Twin Rotax® engine, race-proven suspension setup and the goanywhere Visco-Lok† front differential combine to make the Renegade 500 EFI the ultimate in value and trail performance.

Rotax 800R V-Twin engine – This 80º V-twin engine is still the most powerful engine in the industry. The liquid-cooled, single overhead cam power plant has four valves per cylinder and is fed by a 46mm throttle body and two VDO Siemens‡ fuel injectors. The sophisticated electronic fuel injection system automatically keeps the 800R 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 windup 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. All DPS-equipped models come with the Visco-Lok QE calibration giving an even quicker engagement of the front differential.
Trailing Torsional Independent (TTI) rear suspension – Trailing arm design provides excellent control and stability, especially in rough terrain by eliminating scrub. Wheels move rear-ward 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 tyre 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.
NEW Front fascia – Updates the look of the Outlander 650 and increases airflow to the radiator.
NEW Improved front suspension geometry – Our engineers worked hard to improve the handling of the front end by adjusting the geometry of the front suspension. The result? Lighter steering on the trail meaning less rider fatigue.
High-density polyethylene injection-molded skid plate – Added protection NEW 12-inch cast-aluminium wheels – Lightweight 4 twin spoke design gives an aggressive and premium look to the Outlander. The new wheels saves 0.64 kg of unsprung weight versus last year’s XT wheel.
66cm (26-inch) Badlands radial tyre – Lightweight and great handling tyres for the base model.
Inboard disc brakes – Unique design both front and rear reduces unsprung weight and helps centralise masses for more responsive handling. Also better protects against mud and debris.
Digitally Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S.) – Industry’s first standard anti-theft device. Electronic code in key must match code in ECU to start.
Front and rear steel racks – 45 kg (100 lbs) capacity in front, 90 kg (200 lbs) in back.
