Renegade 500

Hydraulic disc brakes

Double A-arm with dive-control geometry

Developed in collaboration with Can-Am pro racers, the RS-Type double A-arm front suspension of the Renegade was designed with the track and trail in mind. The RS-Type dive-control geometry provides critical feedback to the rider, and its 8.5" (216 mm) of long travel absorbs the high impacts of intense riding.

D.E.S.S.™ (Digitally Encoded Security System)

Renegade models feature the exclusive D.E.S.S.™ anti-theft system. The ATV will not start unless a coded microchip in the key matches a code embedded in the engine control module. It means only you can start your vehicle.

Taillight / brake light

The taillights offer a new stylish design that blends in with the rear plastic and offers increased visibility for trail riding.

Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with engine braking

For ease of use, you can count on the CVT transmission that features engine braking to help slow you when going downhill.

1 US gal (3.7L) rear storage

The Renegade line features a rear storage space with tie-down points behind the rear seat for added convenience on long trail rides.

Independent front and rear brake controls

Independent front and rear brake controls for a sportier ride.

12-in. (305 mm) centre-cast alumunium wheels

Visco-Lok‡ auto-locking 4x4 front differential

The Visco-Lok‡ 4 x 4 system constantly monitors front wheel speed and, if it detects one wheel spinning faster than the other, it progressively sends more power to the wheel with the better traction. And it does it all without the rider having to lift a finger.

Four 60-W projector beam lights

Full floorboards with kick-up alumunium footpegs

Multi-function digital gauge

Tells the rider everything in one easy glance. Our easy-to-read multi-function gauge is equipped with a digital information centre including a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, trip meter, hour meter, gear function, fuel gauge and a clock function.

40.4-hp Rotax 500 V-Twin, liquid-cooled EFI engine

This powerful 40.4-hp engine is liquid cooled with SOHC with 4 valves per cylinder and features 2 injectors for a precise fuel delivery and throttle response. The only V-Twin in its class.

25-in. ITP Holeshot ATR sport radial tyres

A versatile tire for proven, all-around trail performance and traction in a wide variety of conditions.

Torsional Trailing arm Independent rear suspension (TTI)

The only independent rear suspension that eliminates scrub and camber changes, meaning the wheels pivot up and down rather than in a butterfly motion like competitors' systems. This ensures the vehicle only moves in the direction you point it. With fewer moving parts than competitive systems.

11-in. (279 mm)ground clearance
