Can-am Maverick X3 X RS vs Polaris RZR XP Turbo S
There is a lot of competition between models made by different car brands in the world of off-road driving. Polaris and Can-Am are two of the community's most talked-about brands. One of the most important aspects of the brands' marketing has been their fierce competition with one another.
But it's hard for customers, especially those who don't know enough about the differences, to tell which one is best and if it's really as good as the company says in its ads.
Starting in 1999, Polaris energised the UTV market with the launch of the first SxS after dominating the snowmobile market. By 2010, Can-Am was hot on their trail.
Both the Maverick and the RZR are powerful, rugged machines that consistently set high standards in the "supercar segment" of the UTV market.
