Electrek says that for its typical use range would not be an issue, leaving an excellent powertrain and a low-maintenance vehicle that is easy on lungs and hearing.
It says Can-Am silenced every quirky suspension sound with high-quality bushings and tuned the powertrain so it is completely silent at low speed, and that combined with 1,830 lb of towing and the two-speed transmission the off-road capabilities are fantastic. The reviewer hopes for another model aimed at a broader market.
Dirt Wheels says in 4WD you feel a little more feedback through the handlebars because all the tires put power to the ground, and that the battery has a five-year warranty and is built by Rotax, a name with a 100-plus-year record of reliability in the air, over the water and on the ground.
Can-Am lists a 47 hp Rotax E-Power motor, a selectable 2WD and 4WD system with a Visco-Lok QE auto-locking front differential, double A-arm suspension with 9.75 in front and 10.25 in rear travel, 26-inch tires on 14-inch aluminum wheels and dual 214 mm front discs. The seat is 38 in, ground clearance 12 in, the wheelbase 53 in and the estimated dry weight 875 lb. Racks are rated at 120 lb and 240 lb.
Outlander Electric against the Outlander DPS 700 and Rubicon 700
Can-Am's gasoline Outlander DPS 700 and Honda's Rubicon 700 are the natural comparisons.
The Outlander Electric is Can-Am's battery-powered utility ATV, with a Rotax E-Power motor rated at 47 hp and a two-speed transmission. Electrek says it is silent at low speed and low-maintenance, and Can-Am asks $13,249.
An electric ATV has no belt to wear, no oil to change and no engine noise, which is why hunters and property owners consider it. The trade is range and charging: Electrek found range would not be an issue for its use, but that depends on the work. It costs $13,249, which is $3,250 above the Honda Rubicon 700 at $9,999 and $2,650 above the Grizzly EPS at $10,599.
The Outlander Electric suits an owner with short, regular work rides who values silence and low maintenance and can charge between uses. It is not for a long day away from power.
