Can-Am Renegade 500 ATV Key
Features & Benefits
Rotax 500
V-Twin engine // This 80º
V-twin engine represents potent
power and smooth power delivery
that the competition can only dream
of providing. The 40.4-horsepower
liquid-cooled, single overhead cam
power plant has four valves per
cylinder and is fed by a 46mm throttle
body and two VDO Siemens‡
fuel injectors. The sophisticated
electronic fuel injection system
automatically keeps the 500 engine’s
performance at its peak, regardless
of temperature or altitude. The
progressive throttle ensures power
is manageable whether in precise
rock crawling or opening it up on
the straights.
Visco-Lok
front differential // Progressively
transfers power from a slipping
front wheel to the gripping one
– automatically with no buttons
to push or levers to pull. Plus,
there’s no wheel hop or driveline
wind-up so the system is totally
transparent to the driver and extremely
easy to steer. Can lock up to 100%
with no rev or speed limiter.
RS-type
front suspension // Developed
with the top-racers on Can-Am products,
this double A-arm set up delivers
precise handling and control in
the roughest of terrain, yet delivers
a smooth ride on a leisurely trail
ride. Dive-control geometry tightly
controls the roll-center, especially
when entering corners.Aluminum upper
A-Arms and mounts further reduces
weight.
RS-Type
torsional trailing arm independent
(TTI) rear suspension //
Trailing arm design provides excellent
control and stability, especially
in rough terrain by eliminating
scrub. Wheels move rearward as they
move up and down producing a smoother
ride than the competition, and the
ATV does not waver down the trail.bPlus,
TTI has 75% fewer parts than competitive
designs and significantly decreases
tire wear.
Motion-control
shocks // Gas shocks for
a smooth ride with Renegade 500
-specific calibration to soak up
both high- and low-speed bumps.
Surrounding
Spar Technology (SST™) frame
// Rather than the common
tubular box, the SST frame is a
single spar that is lightweight,
yet strong. It contributes to the
Renegade model’s benchmark
power-toweight ratio and low centre
of gravity.
Four 60W
projector beam headlights //
For exceptional night-time visibility,
just like headlights found on many
high-end, luxury automobiles.
12-inch (30.5 cm) cast-aluminum
wheels // Rolled edge rims
with rolled aluminum are mated with
sharply styled cast-aluminum centers
for the best of both worlds.
25-inch
(66cm) ITP Holeshot AT R tires //
Premium tires for the best in trail
performance.
Inboard
disc brakes // Unique design
both front and rear reduces unsprung
weight and helps centralize masses
for more responsive handling. Also
better protects against mud and
debris.
Digitally
Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S™)
// Industry’s first
standard anti-theft device. Electronic
code in key must match code in ECU
to start.
The industry’s
best warranty // Each Can-Am
Renegade ATV features the industry’s
premier warranty, meaning the factory
stands by your machine.
