Built around Can-Am's atv motorcycle platform, the 2010 Can-Am Outlander 500 EFI XT-P utilizes a 499.6 cc (30.5 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 82.0 x 47.0 mm (3.2 x 1.9 inches).
On the scales, the Outlander 500 EFI XT-P measures 297 kg (655 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 877 mm (34.5 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,285 mm (50.6 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.3-liter (4.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
