BRP Launches the 2026 Can-Am Outlander Electric ATV
In a bold move to revolutionize the powersports industry, BRP Inc. has introduced its latest advancement, the 2026 Can-Am Outlander Electric. This all-terrain vehicle (ATV) is engineered not just for exciting performance and durability but also for a quiet ride, embodying the future of recreational vehicles. With this launch, BRP reaffirms its commitment to sustainability while providing thrilling outdoor experiences that maintain the excitement traditionally associated with combustion models.
A New Era for All-Terrain Vehicles
The Can-Am Outlander Electric is designed for a diverse group of riders, including farmers, ranchers, and outdoor enthusiasts seeking adventure. Built on BRP's modular Rotax E-Power powerpack, this new model showcases impressive stats, delivering 47 horsepower and 53 lb-ft of torque. Riders can expect a range of up to 80 kilometers (about 50 miles) under optimal conditions.
One of the standout features of the Outlander Electric is its instant throttle response and selectable ride modes—Normal, Sport, and Work—making it versatile for various tasks. Charging is quick as well; using a Level 2 charger, the vehicle can go from 20% to 80% in just 50 minutes. The true game-changer, however, lies in its whisper-quiet operation. This has been achieved through innovative technologies, including noise-reducing tires, optimized suspension, and a low-noise cooling system, allowing riders to connect with their environment in a more meaningful way.
Tailored Riding Experience
The specs are compelling, but what truly sets the Outlander Electric apart is its capacity to personalize the riding experience. Riders can enjoy significant off-road performance, boasting a towing capacity of 830 kilograms (around 1,830 pounds), along with more than 120 available accessories. This customization not only enhances functionality but also allows users to tailor their vehicle to their specific needs and desires.
As Julie Tourville, Director of Global Marketing for Can-Am Off-Road at BRP, notes, "With the Outlander Electric, we’re introducing a new way to experience the outdoors and get the job done. It brings our innovative ethos to life while allowing riders and workers to feel more connected to their surroundings."
Success with Electric Motorcycles
BRP's venture into electrification began with significant success in the motorcycle segment. After launching the Can-Am Pulse and Can-Am Origin electric motorcycles a year ago, rider feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. These electric bikes, featuring a cutting-edge battery system that provides a range of 160 kilometers (approximately 100 miles) in the city, showcase BRP's adaptability and the enthusiasm among urban riders and off-road enthusiasts alike.
In addition to these motorcycles, BRP's electric offerings include four models of electric snowmobiles under the Ski-Doo and Lynx brands. These machines highlight the company’s dedication to sustainable performance, providing zero-emission options while still captivating outdoor adventurers.
Leading the Charge in Electrification
BRP holds a notable position in the market as the only powersports manufacturer with a diverse range of electric models across various categories, reflecting a deep understanding of consumer needs and where vehicle innovations can add real value. With development facilities in both Canada and Austria, as well as assembly plants in Mexico and Finland, BRP demonstrates unmatched agility in scaling electrification by fully controlling its modular electric powertrain.
Conclusion
The launch of the 2026 Can-Am Outlander Electric is not just about introducing a new model; it is an essential step towards a future where outdoor adventures are powered by clean technology without compromising on excitement and performance. As BRP continues to innovate, the Outlander Electric serves as a testimony to the company’s vision in becoming a leader in the electrification of powersports, offering thrilling adventures while being mindful of the planet.
