Agriculture is a tough business and the rigorous demands of viticulture management requires durable, precision-engineered vehicles capable of traversing diverse landscapes, coping with unpredictable weather and efficiently managing structured vineyard layouts.
Can-Am, an iconic brand of BRP Inc., is at the forefront of innovation for the agricultural industry with their new lineup of all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and side-by-sides (SSVs) designed specifically for 2026. These vehicles are not merely recreational—they are essential tools for the winemaking process.
Introducing the revolutionary 2026 Can-Am Defender HD11, a tough, clever and capable utility SSV designed for peak performance with a powerful 999cc inline three-cylinder Rotax ACE engine that outputs an impressive 95 horsepower and 70 lb-ft of torque. Featuring industry-best payload capacities of 2,500 lbs for towing and up to 600 lbs in the cargo bed, this vehicle is built to tackle the toughest tasks. The Defender also boasts robust suspension, user-friendly controls, comfortable seating, and available climate controlled cab units, making it perfect for those long vineyard days. Plus, with optimized range and fuel efficiency, Can-Am vehicles help lower operating costs without sacrificing essential performance.
The 2026 Can-Am Outlander Electric ATV sets a new standard as the world’s first mass-produced electric ATV, marking a significant leap in functionality and sustainability. Powered by an innovative liquid-cooled Rotax ePower unit, the Outlander EV delivers nearly silent operation, instantaneous throttle response and minimal maintenance. With a towing capacity of 1,830 lbs and a total rack capacity of 360 lbs, it’s perfectly suited for transporting tools and supplies. Need a quick charge? The Outlander EV can go from 20% to 80% in just 50 minutes using a level 2 charger, offering up to 50 miles of range.
Additionally, Can-Am’s 2026 Outlander Pro HD5/HD7 gas powered ATVs bring serious utility with work-ready power, featuring work-tuned Rotax strength, a low maintenance pDrive clutch and a rugged alloy chassis that’s built for the long haul. This high-performance ATV combines generous ground clearance, optimized ergonomics and smart storage solutions designed to carry tools, haul gear and keep riders comfortable for those long hours and demanding days in the field.

Can-Am is dedicated to supporting the agricultural community in California with an array of financial incentives for both single and multi-unit purchases for 2026. Leigh Anderson, Can-Am District Sales Manager for Northern California and Nevada, notes, “Now is an excellent opportunity to enhance and upgrade your fleet. For agricultural and commercial customers needing just one vehicle, we offer an additional year of warranty on top of our promotional financial package. For multi-unit purchases, rebates can reach up to $3,500 per unit.” Both the Agricultural/ Commercial Single-Unit and Multi-Unit programs also provide a 10% discount on select ATV and SSV accessories when purchased through this initiative.“
