PERFORMANCE
3 Rotax V-Twin engine options
The muscular 89-hp, 80º 976cc liquid-cooled eight-valve Rotax V-twin engine is in the Outlander 1000R.
The Outlander 850 family is powered by a78-hp, liquid-cooled, 80º 854cc V-twin engine, which is the most powerfulengine in its category.
Designed to compete and beat 700-class competitive ATVs, the Outlander 650 ATVs rules its class thanks to its hearty 650cc liquid-cooled Rotax V-Twin power plant that produces 62 horsepower.
Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
The CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) means no shifting is required. The system includes standard engine braking with High,Low, Park, Neutral and Reverse gears. An L gear ratio adds more comfort for low-speed riding and bettertraction for pulling heavy loads. The CVT housing has 13 bolts to ensure a proper seal and also includes an integrated drain plug.
Dual-room, no-tools air box
A no-tools air box is placed at a higher and more centralized location for filtering and processing air. A dual-room air filtration designcaptures dirty air in one portion of the box and clean air in another section before it sends the air to the engine. A higher air intakeensures performance in mud and water.
Large radiators
The large, efficient radiators offer exceptional cooling capacity to keep the Rotax V-Twin engines running cool for optimal performance.The Outlander 1000R has roughly 27 kW of cooling capacity. The 850 and 650 ATVs each have very capable 22 kW radiators.
High-grade exhaust and silencer
The Outlander ATVs have a performance-inspired exhaust system, including a durable end cap/cover, that produces a throatyand impressive exhaust note, yet adheres to strict dB and emissions standards.
HANDLING
Surrounding Spar Technology (SST™) G2 Frame
The Outlander family of 4x4 ATVs use an industry-exclusive Surrounding Spar Technology (SST) G2 frame from BRP.® The welded-steelSST frame offers increased structural integrity and handling with fewer parts.
Torsional Trailing arm Independent (TTI™) rear suspension
With far less moving parts than competitive systems, TTI is designed to eliminate scrub and camber changes when the suspension worksup and down and keep the quad in straight line. The rear suspension also has motion-control shocks and offers 9.3 inches (24.1 cm) oftravel. It includes a removable external sway bar and lower pivot points for geometric squatting to improve traction and power transfer.
Double A-arm front suspension with dive-control geometry
The Outlander ATVs use a dependable double A-arm front suspension with 9 inches (22.9 cm) travel. Dive-control geometry tightlycontrols the roll-center, especially when entering corners. The setup also inspires confidence, reducing kickback to the operator bylocating the knuckle in the wheel.
Tri-Mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS)
The Tri-Mode DPS system features three modes (MIN, MED and MAX) allowing riders to select the desired amount of steering assist to adjust to the terrain requirements and to his riding style. All modes offer less assist at high speed to keep maximum steering feel to the rider and more assist at low speed to reduce steering effort.
Visco-Lok QE‡ front differential
All DPS-equipped models come with the Visco-Lok QE calibration giving an even quicker engagement of the front differential.
