131-hp Turbocharged Rotax 1000R V-Twin engine w/ high-flow design
The industry’s first factory-installed turbocharger, which has been revised to 131 horsepower, gives the new Maverick MAX X rs 1000R Turbo the industry’s most power and torque. Enhanced performance comes from larger injectors, increasing boost pressure and recalibrating the CVT.
Yoshimura exhaust

Tri-Mode Dynamic Power Steering (DPS)
The Tri-Mode DPS system features three modes (MIN, MED and MAX) allowing drivers to select the desired amount of steering assist for the terrain and conditions. It offers less assist at high speed and more assist at low speed.
Visco-Lok QE
All DPS-equipped models come with the Visco-Lok QE calibration giving an even quicker engagement of the front differential. Can lock up to 100 percent with no rev or speed limiter. This differential, unlike some competitor’s differentials, does not have
a speed or rev limiter.

Performance
UPDATED 131-hp turbocharged Rotax 1000R V-Twin engine w/high-flow design (Turbo only)
The industry’s lone four-seat side-by-side vehicle with a factory-installed turbocharger has been revised for 2016. Its class-leading performance has been upped to 131 horsepower and its torque curves enhanced. Adding larger injectors, increasing boost pressure and recalibrating the CVT are some of the significant updates.
101-hp Rotax 1000R V-Twin engine (non turbo)
The 976cc, 101-hp Rotax 1000R V-Twin engine powering the normally aspirated Maverick X ds 1000R supplies reliable, thrilling power for both recreational and racing applications.
UPDATED CVT with Quick Response System (QRS) (Turbo only)
The CVT system was recalibrated to meet the increase in performance for 2016. The Quick Response System (QRS) now includes an updated driven spring and the drive pulley roller levers were also enhanced. The QRS system allows for even better power transfer and faster engagement time while also reducing friction for longer belt life. The CVT ventilation has strategic inlets and outlets and a specific impeller design to create more cold-air flow moving through the pulleys.
CVT transmission with Zylon-reinforced belt (non turbo)
The Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) showcases a Zylon-reinforced belt, a material with 1.6 times higher tensile strength and increased belt rigidity in compression compared to a regular belt, keeping it cooler. It also features an integrated engine braking system that will help maintain a steady speed when descending hills.

This all translates to a more controlled wheel movement, optimal bump absorption and tire-to-ground contact for exceptional handling. A compact design also means low unsprung weight for quicker suspension reaction to changing terrain. Along with the top of the line Fox shocks, the rear suspension system offers a perfect balance of confidence at high speeds and the agility and nimbleness of a true sport vehicle.
Double A-arm front suspension with Fox 2.5 Podium RC2 piggyback front shocks

They also offer adjustable dual-rate spring preload, The Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjuster and rebound adjuster allow for custom settings. The large-diameter bore provides greater damping force capability, while allowing the shock to run at lower overall temperatures, offer less fade and a more consistent damping.
High-performance Fox 2.5 Podium RC2 piggyback rear shocks
The Maverick MAX X ds family uses Fox 2.5 Podium RC2 Piggyback Shocks for superb capability, comfort and adjustability. Offering 16 inches (40.6 cm) of travel, these shocks have adjustments for Dual-Speed Compression (DSC), rebound and a dual-rate spring with infinite preload options. A position-sensitive Bottom-Out Control and a spring crossover allow for less compression damping at ride-height to improve comfort and traction while giving huge damping at the end of the stroke to flatten out the biggest of bumps. The aluminum body and reservoir improve heat dissipation and reduce weight. The 7/8-inch (2.2 cm) shaft gives the rear shocks a lot of additional strength and buckling resistance to handle the most demanding conditions. The rear suspension systems work in tandem to allow the Maverick MAX X ds to float over rough terrain and maintain a straight line while doing it.
117.5-inch (298.5 cm) wheelbase
The Maverick MAX X ds family has its own frame, including a modified rear sub frame, center rail and a few tweaks to the front end compared to the standard Maverick.
