i have 2 give points to can am for styling the maverick looks aggressive AF

After seeing the prices you can keep them both 😀

Main thing to note between these 2 are the body style set ups. X3 is a dune buggy 4x4. The rzr is a trail machine. Kind of comparing a jeep to a buggy. X3 is best suited in sand dunes,open areas, wide turn trails. The rzr would be suited to sharp trails,gravel roads,and wet and dry trails

Wow. You guys must really not understand how suspension works, to claim that having more suspension stroke than clearance is an issue 🤦🏽‍♂️

Amazing!

Can we get a test of the rzr crawler vs can am rc?

After driving both on wooded trails there is no comparison. The RZR sits upright where you can view what's over the next hill. The Can Am feels like the bat mobile, which looks cool, but you can't see anything when navigating trails. The hill climbing is hands down for the RZR. I will give it to Can Am on the open (flat) trails. It handles nicely. If I lived out west I would really consider the X3. Living in the Mid-West I choose the RZR without a question.

The can am looks 10 times better, i vote can am..

I looked at the mavericks and the RZRs last year, I really liked them both, I went with the maverick due to the 8" of extra width. I ride with my brother in law or my nephews most of the time, we are big guys and we dont rub shoulders near as bad in the maverick as we would in the RZR.

Aside from the shocks what does the dynamix do different than a regular 18 turbo?

Honestly brp never fails in the design department

Can Am Is killing the Side by side Game From agressive styling To Even more agressive performance the X3 has it all!!

Kick and snare in music are huge!

How do they keep them so clean if they are really testing them?

Lol, it sounds like this guy is reading in front of a class room in middle school! Great video!!!

I love that he says its better balanced to not hit the frame with less ground clearance.

You’re the first guys i see comparing these two machines, is everyone awfraid to see the reality of canam beating polaris?

love them both

Are these trails between Borrego Springs and Salton Sea in So. Cal?

Which is the best for large jumps

Can am Macerick X3 IS AND ONLY IS A SAND DUNE MACHINE, lower cage longer and wider base is designed for better cornering at high speeds. But it cant race in the trails!! RZR can ROCK CLIMB, TRAIL, DUNE AND MUD. Here in Texas we trail and mud. All those stories you hear about RZR breaking down is because they paid less for their machine and actually beat on it.

The Can Am quality and finish puts it in a different class.

Think it’s time for a new host....the guy sounds dull as if he is simply reading off a paper...

Hi guys, been a fan of dirtwheels for 30+ years now! Just want to clarify something about ground clearance and travel. With the long travel of the UTV's you have to consider the "droop". Even if the ground clearance number is smaller than the complete suspension travel it doesnt mean that you're gonna bottom out by the skidplate! It's only mean that you're "droop" is alot more than what you find on a atv or motocross. Trophy truck are all like that. Right?

They are all good when their new.

If I can take one right now I'd still take the Maverick

So the polaris has less ground clearance and less supsension travel but won't bottom out?

I’m a Polaris rzr guy I have a Polaris 800 rebuilt into a little buggy but I might have to with the can am for it aggressive looks and I have a Polaris I also really like that model

Excellent

if you drive it like this does it need extra maintanence???

Every time I go to the mailbox and get out another recall disguised as a service bulletin for either my RZR or General I find myself closer to switching to Can Am.....

The X3 kicks the shit out of the RZR all day. Its really not even a comparison the X3 is so far ahead. I was going to buy a RZR until i drove an X3. Glad i did.

The can am looks cool

I am biased toward polaris but i think they are meant for different riding terrains they are both cool

Riding with both of these machines, the X3 is just better. The new models are pretty even on power but the can am still pulls ahead of the rzr. The razor almost has a static height to be set at unless you get a kit for it. The can am shocks are fully adjust one can give you up to 3" more of ground clearance

With suspension travel, wouldn't 24" be 12 up and 12 down?? So with 15" of GC under full compression the belly would still be 3" off of the ground...

I ride Cam Am Maverick and commander 800r and 1000r everyday. Hands down the best.

I'd rather spend the money on a used truck. Damn these things are getting out of hand with the price.

Can’t afford either! But, fun to watch!

Hold up why not use the turbo s?? It has a better over all frame set up over the dynimax edition.

Ground clearance is super important

Someone needs to explain what droop travel is to this guy. You think trophy trucks have 30" of ground clearance? Dear goodness. Someone link an off road suspension 101 video.

i'd go for the can-am (lower center of gravity) but replacing those shocks with the polaris' ones

I love them both I wish I can have them

Was going to get a rzr but completely got blown away by the can am, can am was the better choice by far, also if you plan to get a 4 seater, can am is really the only way to go for comfort because of how the seats are inclined

1:30 hit the frame? it's called down travel, the 22 inches of travel is the full stroke, not just up. That goes for the polaris as well

First time in a Polaris. I just took a RZR on Hog Canyon 1, 4 and 5, and Barracks. Compared to Maverick X3 DS from Sand Hollow to North Rim. The question I had was how would I feel (comfort and mental focus) after driving several hours straight. I favor the Can Am.

My 2 favorite rzrs

Both are fantastic machines but Can am has always felt more premium and this really carries into the x3 especially at the high price tag these vehicles carry. I have always favored the RZR viability especially over the x3 as well as Polaris 4wd. I am not a fan of anything but a locked front diff for a pure off-road machine. Polaris is going to need a new Chassis for pure sport though the Can am x3 is a huge win. It looks and feels premium everywhere. The Polaris on the other hand doesn't seem like enough at 26k.

mto bom o video

I cant believe Ben Stein did the commentary for this! Too cool!

Which one is more reliable

The UTV results at KOH is what?

the Maverick is in a different level

Is there a 2019 with both at 72” wide video yet?

Couldnt decide. And at 25k it was a no brainer. I bought 2 of each!

The can am is way the hell better.💪💪💪👍👍👍👍

i dont regret buying the can am, however for my son i only bought a rzr 1000xp non turbo to practice with.

Been buying Polaris products since 1987... the CVT's are bulletproof. The transmission is basic and performs as needed. The front diff is simple and reliable for 4 wheel assist. You beat any machine beyond what its design for parts are going to break. Drive through water over the driveline and electrical and mechanical problems are going to develop. Polaris are basically simple to work on. I wished Polaris would make their "hood and fenders" in one piece with pull pins and latches to undo it as one assembly. Also with the 'rear fenders and rear body". Pull the pins and undo the latches and the complete front and rear frames become naked like a race car front end!

This is tremendous

Bought a rock bouncer for same price cranking about 400hps

Macrick looks mean! I rather get a wild looking machine since the difference is not that big. I was puzzling over Maverick or Rzr but made up my mind for 2018 Maverick X3 turbo R!!!

Are you able to drive these vehicles down a city street ??

Toys for Rich :D

Even out the audio... I kept having to turn the volume up and down between the cometary and background music. Good info though

Cool!

For $27k I think I’d buy a nice used Jeep or 4Runner, trick it out for off-road have heat, a/c, a vehicle that can drive 100’s of thousands of miles, and don’t have to trailer it Home. The only way I would buy one of these things is if I was pretty well off. Don’t get me wrong I think they’re pretty cool but for the money it’s just too much for a toy that is gonna be outdated and might not last 5 Years.

Welp 4 years later, and Polaris has knocked smooth out of the park with the pro R.

Maybe an east coast test instead of a west coast shoot out. Good video.

How bout a long term test Dirtwheels?

You can't drive a 72 inch wide machine on trails in Minnesota so I would like to see how it compares to a 64 inch wide can am. Of course if you have that much more width it should corner better lol also, I watched a ton of can am guys over New Years in Glamis spend about 2 hours changing belts out in the dunes, and I saw a lot changing belts. I had to give an artic cat guy a ride back because he couldn't change his belt in the dunes either. They sure do look sick and are have lots of leg room. I also watched a 4 seater RZR burn to the ground. I just upgraded from a Rzr 900 trail to a turbo dynamix and so far I love it. I sure did think about buying the can am tho, maybe next year.

The X3 is nice in corners but the Dynamix is incredible when riding aggressively through trails.. Dynamix is better in the air too, X3 nose dives quite a bit... Both are awesome machines if you suck enough to but a SXS... ATVs are the only real choice

For me I will stick with my polaris 1000 I don't need a almost 30 thousand dollar sxs. I also ride fairly slow so the can am is probably insane from high speed runs and it also looks really mean. Keep in mined I just pick which ever sxs is better each year

Can these things be chipped? To unlock more BHP?

i got a funco gtx hopefully soon i will get a canam

Competition will benefit us all.

I love going on the mud with a can am x3

name of the music?

Nice

Some trails are too narrow for the can-am. Great dune machine.

I might have a hard time keeping the groceries from flying everywhere.

I sat in both of these UTVs and the cam am has more leg room, great for over 6 foot people

Polaris really needs to step their game up, I bough my RZR 1k new in 2015 and have been pretty happy with it. However, if I was going to buy a new one again it would be the X3 all day without a second thought. Instead they seem to now be focused on a single seater race(ish) UTV which is just meh.

You want to try them out come to Five Points West Virginia Agnes you won't be disappointed and you'll see what they can do and what they can do

all depends on where you live and the type of terrain. id prefer the can am but i think the polaris would suit where i live better.

why not compare the 64 inch vs the 64 inch

hi everybody, do you have experiences for SXS tires ? i surch for the strongest tire using in sharp gravel-trial roads…...the manufactor tires failed all the time at oure hella-greace Rally...there MUST be a rearl resistance tire for x3,rzr,yxz...i would apreciate very much your Experience ore support, !

Now that canam is selling them with a locker I don’t see any advantage to the rzr other than parts availability.

The price of these machines has just gotten flat out ridiculous! Sadly, it seems that trail riding is becoming a rich mans game. Which to buy? Easy - buy the Polaris and sit around the house wishing you could go riding while it sits in the shop waiting for repairs due to manufacturing defects, all the time calling the dealer to argue about warranty coverage, OR.......buy the CanAm and go have fun!

You guys are being really nice to Polaris

I wanna see a comparison between top of the line 64” X3 and a Polaris. Apples to apples man. I dont want a dune machine, I want the best trail machine out there.

It would be neat to see a Can-Am with Fox Live.

at first i thought it was dyna-mix, like its a protein shake or something hahaha

Can you make any of them street legal in California?

Fancy schmancy electronic suspension and you'll still have to go with aftermarket dual rate springs to get the ride quality that the Polaris should come with from the factory 👎

Got the Polaris

This guy sounds dead like he didn't want to do the review LMAO

Maverick is just best and have DNA is born for off road

Whoever thought a 3 Cylinder CVT could be so exciting

I want both 😭
