MACHINE TRAIL-FIT PROFILE
This profile covers the current 2026 Can-Am Maverick Sport two-seat recreation/sport configuration and the planning questions created by its 60-inch width, 90.6-inch wheelbase, cargo capacity, and weather setup.
Scope and caution
This profile is centered on the 2026 Maverick Sport DPS 2-seat configuration. Cosmetic, display, audio, and convenience differences may remain consolidated when the chassis and passenger layout are shared. The X mr package is not silently merged because its published 64-inch width and different equipment create a separate planning question.
Trip-planning summary
The Maverick Sport DPS is a 60-inch, two-seat machine with a 90.6-inch wheelbase, 119-inch length, 300-pound cargo-box capacity, and 10-gallon fuel tank. Those facts create a wider and longer transport and maneuvering plan than compact trail-width machines while retaining a defined two-seat layout.

Stock Configuration Warning
This profile explains trip-planning tradeoffs; it is not a safety approval or route-compatibility verdict. Stock specifications may not match a modified or loaded machine. Use the current official map and obey posted signs, closures, direction, and vehicle restrictions. System-level eligibility does not open every route.
What This Configuration Changes
- The 60-inch width makes trailer deck space and exact installed width important to verify.
- The 90.6-inch wheelbase and 119-inch length affect turning space, loading, and recovery angles.
- The 300-pound cargo-box capacity provides a defined place for trip gear but still requires careful load distribution.
- The 10-gallon fuel capacity supports planning, while range depends on terrain, load, pace, and conditions.
Trip-Use Tradeoffs
The Maverick Sport DPS has a recreational bucket-seat layout and a 60-inch chassis, with cargo capacity and towing information published by Can-Am. Exact roof, door, windshield, tire, and recovery equipment can change weather preparation and the equipment carried for the day.
Potential Limitations
Confirm the actual DPS or package configuration, installed accessories, loaded weight, trailer capacity, tire setup, and posted restrictions. Do not use the 50-inch Maverick Trail page or Maverick Sport MAX values for this profile.
Passenger and Group Considerations
The two bucket seats create a fixed two-person plan. Assign cargo, tools, fuel, communication equipment, and recovery gear before departure so the passenger area remains usable.
Trail-System Considerations
Use the current official map and the specific Trail Guide. Width, wheelbase, turning room, cargo load, and weather equipment are configuration questions, not a universal route conclusion.
Trip-Prep Checks for This Machine
- Measure the actual width with tires and accessories.
- Confirm trailer deck, ramp, tie-down, and payload capacity.
- Inspect tires, belt, fluids, battery, lighting, brakes, and recovery points.
- Confirm the actual roof, doors, windshield, and rear-panel setup.
- Plan fuel stops and secure cargo within the published box limit.
Recovery and Cargo
The manufacturer publishes 1,500 pounds of towing capacity and a 1,424-pound estimated dry weight. Actual loaded weight is higher with fluids, passengers, fuel, accessories, and cargo, so recovery planning should use the real machine.
Who Should Pay Extra Attention
Pay extra attention if your trailer is sized for 50-inch machines, if the unit carries added protection, or if the group depends on one machine to transport shared recovery and weather gear.
