The 2027 Can-Am Outlander XT-P 1000R is the performance end of the Outlander lineup: the 101-horsepower 1000R V-twin with adjustable FOX suspension and 14-inch beadlock wheels.
Who the Outlander XT-P 1000R is for
Experienced riders who cover a lot of trail quickly and want suspension that keeps up. It still works as a utility machine, but it’s tuned for riders who ride hard.
What stands out
- FOX 1.5 Podium QS3 shocks. Three-position adjustable compression, so you can firm it up for fast trails or soften it for rough ground.
- 14-inch beadlock wheels. Keep the tire on the rim at low pressure on rocks and roots.
- HD winch and factory upgrades. Recovery-ready from day one.
- 101-hp Rotax V-twin (1000R). Can-Am’s most powerful ATV engine ever, with acceleration to match.
- Rated to tow up to 1,830 lb. Big-bore muscle for real work too.
What’s new for 2027
For 2027, Can-Am renamed the 82-hp Outlander 850 as the Outlander 1000, a better match for its 999cc V-twin. The 101-hp 1000R carries over. Select XT and Backcountry packages can now be ordered with Can-Am’s 10.25-inch touchscreen, and every Outlander uses the pDrive primary clutch.
XT-P vs. XT 1000R
Same 101-hp engine. The XT-P adds the adjustable FOX suspension, beadlock wheels and performance upgrades. The XT is set up more for work; the XT-P is for riders who push the pace.
Common questions
1000 or 1000R: do I need the extra power?
The 1000’s 82 hp is already more than most riders use. The 1000R’s 101 hp is for riders who want the fastest acceleration available or plan to tow and climb at the limits. If you’re unsure, the 1000 is the practical choice.
Who can ride a Outlander XT-P 1000R in Virginia?
Virginia limits riders under 16 to ATVs of 90cc or less, so this is an adult machine. Every rider must wear an approved helmet, and ATVs aren’t allowed on public roads except to cross one by the most direct route.
Can I carry a passenger?
Not legally. Virginia prohibits passengers on an ATV unless it’s designed and equipped for more than one rider, and this one is built for one. If you want to ride two-up, look at the MAX version.
