This Can-Am Maverick X3 is a highly capable rally-raid off-roader, which has competed in several high-profile events, including the Dakar rally, the Andalucia rally, the Rally of Morocco, and Baja events in Hungary, Poland, Spain and Italy.
It meets the FIA T4 regulations and is ready to race with all associated documents included, benefiting from a major overhaul by South Racing.
Power comes courtesy of a 900cc Rotax ACE (Advanced Combustion Efficiency) turbocharged and intercooled three-cylinder, which can produce up to 195hp (electronically limited to 160hp), connected to a Quick Response System X (QRS-X) CVT automatic gearbox and a Visco-Lok auto-locking front differential.
First delivered in Germany, it has since been exported to the Netherlands.
The car has a German license plate which was provided from South Racing to ensure that the car can compete in rally-raid competitions without problems.
The seller notes that although registration plates are present, it is not currently a road-legal vehicle.
The odometer shows 26,531 km.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
The Maverick X3 features a 100% chrome-molybdenum steel chassis and roll cage. 14-inch cast aluminium wheels, double A-arm front suspension, and a four-link Torsional Trailing Arm X (TTX) setup at the rear.
This example is finished in black with visible carbon fibre, including a carbon roof.
Its 14-inch wheels are manufactured by Method Race Wheels, and they are currently wrapped in Tensor tyres. Two spare wheels are mounted at the rear.

CONDITION
Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition.
Specific notes from the seller include: the bodywork has some damage; the paint is worn on the driver’s door and the original blue plastic can be seen underneath; there are holes in the dashboard to fix navigation devices for a co-driver; the ‘check engine’ light is on, which is due to the custom wiring harness and power distribution module.
SERVICE HISTORY
A major rebuild was completed by South Racing in February 2023, which included replacement of the driveshafts, front differential assembly, CVT drive belt, spark plugs, engine and gearbox oils, rear uprights and ball joints.
Prior to this, the car was serviced in August 2022.
