Vehicle Information
Can-Am Traxter Max 500 ATV (2003-2005)
The Can-Am Traxter Max 500, produced under the Bombardier brand from 2003 to 2005, was a pioneering utility ATV. It featured a robust 498cc Rotax, 4-stroke, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine, which remained consistent across all model years. This model was notable for its extended chassis, designed for two-passenger comfort and stability, making it the world's first production two-seater quad upon its 2003 introduction. Throughout its production, the Traxter Max 500 was available in a standard trim and an XT version, which offered enhanced features. A significant mid-cycle update occurred for the 2004 model year, where the chassis was revised to further improve the two-rider design, incorporating integrated floorboards and hand grips for increased comfort and safety. The 5-speed transmission, with its selectable auto-shift and manual modes, was a consistent and appreciated feature. Additionally, the Bombardier Traxter XL 500, a distinct utility vehicle focused on hauling with a dumping box-bed, was available in 2004 and 2005, derived from the Traxter Max platform. FAQ:
