The 2026 Can-Am Defender MAX Limited HD11 is a high-end, full-size utility side-by-side built for crew rides, heavy loads and year-round comfort. It combines a powerful engine, a full enclosed cab with climate control, premium tech and utility-grade capability.
Engine: 999 cc, liquid-cooled, three-cylinder “HD11” engine delivering about 95 hp and 70 lb-ft of torque.
Transmission: CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) with pDrive primary and Quick Response System (QRS-X).
Drive train: Selectable modes including Turf Mode / 2WD / 4WD with a front differential-locking technology.
Seating / capacity: “MAX” version means three up front (bench) plus full crew-cab seating—made for you and multiple passengers.
Cab & comfort: Fully enclosed cab with climate control (heating, venting, air-conditioning), power windows, full doors, windshield and full glass setup in many versions.
Wheels & tires: Large wheels with heavy-duty tires (e.g., 30-inch or larger depending on trim) and 15-inch cast aluminum wheels on premium tires.
Utility features: Strong cargo bed, high-capacity towing, large winch (≈ 4,500 lb) with synthetic rope in many configurations, heavy-duty skid plates and protection.
Dimensions: Approximately 162.4 in (length) × 65 in (width) × 81.4 in (height) for the MAX crew version in many specs; ground clearance around 14 in.
Weight: Dry weight around 2,645 lb (≈1,200 kg) for the MAX Limited crew version.
Premium tech: Large infotainment touchscreen (approx. 10.25″), rear-camera capability, premium audio system, heavy-duty front bumper, full hard roof with dome lighting, mudguards and full protection.
Utility rated: Crew capacity, premium comfort, and built to handle serious terrain, loads and all-season use.
This machine is truly utility + luxury: You get bare-knuckle hauling and towing capability plus the comfort of a full cabin environment.
The big engine and drivetrain make it well-suited for work on farms, ranches, large properties or multi-passenger trail use.
The enclosed cab and climate control mean you can use it in cold winter conditions or hot summer days and stay comfortable.
Top-tier build: premium wheels/tires, full protection, strong winch and full tech package make it one of the most complete utility machines in its class.
Because of its size (over 160 in in length, 65 in wide, and ~2,645 lb dry), it will require more space for storage/transport and may be less maneuverable in very tight trails or dense woods.
With the premium features and big engine, running costs (fuel, maintenance, tires) will likely be higher than simpler machines.
If you don’t need full crew capacity or the enclosed cabin features, there may be more cost-effective models in the line.
Always verify which trim version you’re getting, as “Limited”/“MAX” versions include many upgrades that may not be standard on base trims.
The Defender MAX Limited HD11 delivers an uncompromising, robust and tech-forward experience, providing an unmatched ride for you and a passenger. This formidable machine is engineered for riders who demand peak performance.
