Overview
Product Features
Description
The Outlander 500 XT adds improved handling and heavy-duty features to an ATV already boasting the most power and best power-to-weight ratio in its category. The new Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS) lets you set the amount of assistance to your preference. Bumpers and a 3,000-lb winch mean you're ready for anything.
XT Added Features
Tri-mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS™): The Tri-Mode DPS™ features three rider-selectable modes (MIN, MED and MAX) of steering depending on rider preference. The system is designed to offer less assist at high speed and more assist at low speed. This technology also includes a Direct Link setup that uses advanced magnetic field sensors for faster response to steering input than competitive technology, which then minimizes steering lag. Less kickback and more trail feedback is supplied to the operator because of the 50:1 final gear ratio, which is the largest in the industry. A high-capacity 50-amp motor means the DPS™ will never fade with heavy use and all DPS™-equipped models also come with the Visco-Lok® QE.
Visco-Lok® QE auto-locking front differential: All DPS-equipped models have the Visco-Lok® QE calibration up front, which has all the features and benefits of the standard quick-engagement Visco-Lok® differential, but with an even quicker engagement point. This differential, unlike some competitors' differentials, does not have a speed limiter.
3,000-lb WARN® winch with roller fairlead, wired remote control & integrated remote storage: This powerful 3,000-lb (1,361 kg) capacity factory-installed winch is equipped with a wired remote control that neatly stows in the underside of the ATV's front storage compartment cover.
Cast-aluminum wheels: Lightweight 4 twin-spoke design gives an aggressive and premium look.
25-in. Carlisle® ACT radial tires: These 25-in., 3-ply tires feature a tread pattern that is aggressive enough to tackle the toughest terrain, yet provide a smooth ride in a lightweight package.
Heavy-duty front and rear bumpers: The front and rear bumpers are factory installed and are covered by a factory warranty. The added protection gives peace of mind in rugged conditions.
Handlebar with wind deflectors: Premium look and protection from brush and cold.
650-W magneto: This package provides a more powerful magneto with 650 watts of power output.
- 40.4-hp Rotax 500 EFI engine
- Torsional Trailing arm Independent rear suspension (TTI)
- MacPherson front suspension
- Visco-Lok® auto-locking front differential
- Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with engine braking
- Cast-aluminum wheels with 25-in. radial tires
- 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.
- 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. The proven TTI rear suspension has a suspension travel of 9 in. (229 mm) .
- 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.
- MacPherson front suspension: This front suspension provides a plush and precise ride.
- 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.
- Center skid plate: Center skid plate made of 5-mm thick injection-molded high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Offers better frame protection for riding in rough terrain.
- 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 center including a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, trip meter, gear position, hour meter, engine hour meter, temperature and engine lights, fuel gauge and a clock function.
- D.E.S.S.™ (Digitally Encoded Security System): Outlander 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.
