At the heart of the 2025 Can-Am Outlander 1000R atv motorcycle, Can-Am features a 999 cc (61 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 101 HP (73.7 kW) while maximum torque reaches 93.6 Nm (69 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 101.1 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Outlander 1000R measures 427 kg (941 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.24 HP/kg (4.23 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 960 mm (37.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,342 mm (52.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 19.5-liter (5.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
