Canadian ATVsCan-Am ATVs
Relatively recently, a new player burst into the motorcycle market - the Canadian company BRP.
Its line of Can-Am Commander all-terrain vehicles became the starting point for the development of a new industry called the Utility Task Vehicle (UTV for short).
How do these all-terrain vehicles differ from standard ATVs, so beloved by extreme sports enthusiasts? Let's look at the example of the manufacturer's flagship model.
SUV design
innovative developments and original solutions into every new product of the BRP brand , so the 1000 XT model, released in 2013, absorbed all the best.
The unique appearance sets the BRP Commander 1000 XT apart from other utilitarian-tourist class ATVs.
The first thing that catches your eye is the “Side-by-side” seating pattern , which allows the passenger to sit comfortably next to the driver, and not behind him, which is very convenient and safer.
The aggressive appearance is formed by twin headlights, reinforced bumper structures, luggage compartment and sill arches, fender extensions and original 20-inch alloy wheels with Maxxis Bighorn tires.
A special feature of the Commander 1000 XT all-terrain vehicle is the folding side of the body, which has an additional spacious luggage compartment , which will delight both extreme tourists and fishermen and hunters.

Comfort and reliability
The 1000 XT all-terrain vehicle has significant additions, even compared to its peers in the model range.
Thus, it is equipped with a standard BRP XL-4000 winch , which has a remote control and a cable-laying bracket on rollers, “bedlocks” on the disks (tire fixation), as well as special adjustable shock absorbers.
All this allows the car to overcome any obstacles and get out of the most difficult situations.
Thanks to the “Side-by-side” seating position, as well as seats with lateral support and 3-point seat belts, even very large people can “cut through” the SUV.
The Can-Am Commander's superior ergonomics provide all-day comfort, while the exclusive Dual-Level body allows the vehicle to deliver incredible versatility, from off-road fun to daily farm work.
Among other things, the 1000 XT all-terrain vehicle can travel on routes where it has no equal among its utilitarian-tourist counterparts.

Such an engine consumes fuel moderately and, with its 85 “horses,” develops a tractive effort of 680 kilograms.

The advantage of all-terrain vehicles compared to their counterparts, a motorcycle or an SUV, is their maneuverability and ability to safely pass any unevenness, even such as logs and stumps, but even on the highway no utilitarian-tourist competitor can compare with it.
And thanks to its appearance, it definitely won’t go unnoticed.
