BRP have released thier 2012 line up with much emphasis being put on the new 1000cc Rengade and Outlander family's. More than just having shoehorned the new 1000cc Rotax engine into the old Outlander and Renegade 800 chassis the 2012 model's across the 1000 and 800 range have a completely re-designed chassis with improved suspension and steering geometry and new suspension compontentry for the Rengade models (Fox Podium X full adjustable shocks). In an industry first Can Am have also introduced a luxury SxS model in the Commander 1000 Limited (see specs below) with a whole heap of out of the box goodies including a 4 speaker sound system, a Garmin GPS and 14 inch Alloy Wheels.

Don't expect to see the 1000cc Renegade and Outlander models on dealer floors here just yet as they have only just been launched in the US but stay tuned when they do get here for hopefully we will get some test time with some of the new models.
