For over a century, Gates has driven innovation in belt technology to power the machines that move you. Gates® G-Force C12 CVT belt drives are engineered to navigate the toughest off-road trails with power and efficiency. The industry's first CVT belt with carbon tensile cord also features a trapezoid top-notch and rounded cog design for superior flexibility and heat dissipation, along with a unique gum adhesion that reduces fiber pullout within the belt extending the life of the belt. Gates combines material science and process engineering to create innovative products that provide performance, reliability and the strength to withstand even the most challenging off-road environments. Continuous innovation isn't just what we do. It's who we are.
WHY G-FORCE C12 BELTS?

Vehicle Information
Can-Am Maverick X3 Side-by-Side (2017-2026)
The Can-Am Maverick X3, a high-performance side-by-side vehicle, has defined the off-road market from its introduction in 2017 through the 2026 models. Engineered for adventure and performance, it is powered by a 900cc Rotax ACE turbocharged triple-cylinder engine. Over the years, the Maverick X3 has undergone significant evolution. Initially launched with 154 hp, power progressively increased, reaching 172 hp in 2018, then 195 hp with the introduction of the Turbo RR engine in 2020, and finally 200 hp in 2022 for Turbo RR models. Base versions of 120 hp and 135 hp (in 2026) were also offered. These updates often included technical enhancements such as a larger turbo, an optimized intercooler, and the integration of the Smart-Lok system. The lineup diversified with specific versions like DS (desert sport), RS (race sport), MR (mud ready), and RC (rock crawling), as well as MAX four-seater configurations, offering increased versatility for all terrain types.
