Check out the 2017 Can-Am Maverick X3 X ds Turbo drag race the 2017 Polaris RZR XP Turbo. Stay tuned for a full Shootout between the two turbocharged models.
Whenever we have our hands on two competing high performance models we answer the number one question first; which is faster? In this case we took a brand new 2017 RZR Turbo and a 2017 Maverick X3 Turbo, broke them in and then started drag racing.
Off the line the RZR would consistently get a slight jump to about a car length lead. The RZR would hold the lead until it quickly hit its 80MPH speed limit. At that time the X3 would keep gaing speed and overtake the RZR. The Maverick kept pulling to a top speed of 85MPH.
If we were to use the narrow base model X3 or the X ds The drag race would be a little closer in the beginning but have similar end results. However, the RZR Turbo is only limited on speed electronically and has the potential to go faster just as the Maverick X3 does.
They are both fast and fun and we are in the process of testing all the features of each machine for shootout so stay tuned.
