With a turbocharged engine, long-travel suspension and a wide aggressive stance, the Maverick X3 is built specifically for the kind of terrain Dubai’s desert demands: steep red sand dunes, loose surfaces and fast open trails.

Why the Can-Am Maverick X3 Is the Best UTV for Dubai's Desert
Not all buggies are equal on sand dunes. The Maverick X3 outperforms every other side-by-side in Dubai’s desert conditions for three specific reasons — power, suspension, and stability.
195 HP
Turbocharged Engine
The Maverick X3 Turbo RR produces up to 195 horsepower — more than any competing UTV. On Big Red Dunes this translates to effortless climbing on the steepest faces, fast acceleration on flat desert tracks, and reserve power when the sand gets deep and soft.
22″
Long-Travel Suspension
Up to 22 inches of suspension travel front and rear means the Maverick X3 absorbs dune drops, rough terrain and big jumps without losing composure. Passengers feel the excitement without the jarring — it’s a remarkably comfortable ride given the speed and terrain it handles.
64″
Wide Stance Stability
Up to 22 inches of suspension travel front and rear means the Maverick X3 absorbs dune drops, rough terrain and big jumps without losing composure. Passengers feel the excitement without the jarring — it’s a remarkably comfortable ride given the speed and terrain it handles.
Full
Roll Cage & Safety System
A full ROPS-certified roll cage, four-point harness seat belts, and advanced braking system come as standard on every Maverick X3. Combined with our mandatory helmet, neck brace and goggles, you have full protection for an aggressive desert ride.
Where You'll Ride the Can-Am Maverick X3 in Dubai
All Can-Am Maverick X3 tours operate across three distinct desert zones in the Al Badayer area — each offering a completely different riding challenge and visual experience.
Big Red Dunes – Al Badayer
Dubai’s most iconic off-road destination. Towering red sand dunes up to 100 metres high — the Maverick X3’s turbo power makes climbing these look effortless. The main arena for every tour and the best location for dramatic desert photography.
Al Badayer Valley Trails
The wide valley floor between the dune ridges provides fast, open trails where the Maverick X3’s top speed can be properly explored. These sections are included in the 2-hour and full-day packages — the place to let the turbocharged engine breathe.
Fossil Rock Desert Trails
A mix of rocky desert terrain and soft sand that tests every aspect of the Maverick X3’s capability. The transition between surfaces highlights the vehicle’s suspension and handling in a way the sand-only routes don’t. Available on extended and full-day packages.
Guided Tour or Self-Drive — Which Should You Choose?
Guided Can-Am X3 Tour
A professional guide leads your group across pre-planned routes, choosing the best lines on the dunes and timing your ride for maximum scenery. Ideal for first-timers, families, and groups who want an organised adventure without any navigation decisions.
Best for: First-timers, families, groups
Self-Drive Can-Am X3 Rental
Take the Maverick X3 and drive at your own pace across the designated Al Badayer trails. After a full safety briefing and practical orientation, you’re free to push the vehicle as hard as you like within the trail boundaries. Our team remains on standby throughout.
Best for: Experienced riders, adrenaline seekers
Can-Am Maverick X3 in Dubai – The Complete Guide
The Can-Am Maverick X3 is widely regarded as the world’s most capable production side-by-side UTV — and nowhere does it perform better than on the red sand dunes of Dubai’s Al Badayer desert. The combination of its turbocharged Rotax engine, Fox Racing suspension, and wide-body chassis makes it uniquely suited to the specific demands of desert off-roading: deep loose sand, steep dune faces, and long open trails.
When you book a Can-Am Maverick X3 tour in Dubai, you’re not riding a generic buggy — you’re driving the same platform used by professional desert racing teams across the Middle East. The standard turbocharged variant produces 120 horsepower, while the Turbo RR version reaches 195 horsepower, giving both entry-level riders and experienced drivers something genuinely exciting to work with.
Can-Am Maverick X3 vs Polaris RZR — Which is Better for Dubai?
Both are excellent machines, but they suit different riders. The Can-Am Maverick X3 is faster, more aggressive, and delivers a more intense driving experience — the choice for riders who want maximum performance. The Polaris RZR is slightly more forgiving and available in 4-seat configurations, making it better for larger groups or mixed-experience riders. If your priority is outright performance on Dubai’s dunes, the Can-Am Maverick X3 is the answer.
Important Health & Safety Notice
Due to the physically demanding nature of the Can-Am Maverick X3 experience — which involves fast dune climbs, drops and off-camber terrain — we advise that pregnant women and individuals with heart conditions or serious back injuries do not participate as drivers. Passengers in this situation should consult their doctor before booking. For evening and early morning tours, please bring warm clothing as desert temperatures in Dubai drop significantly after sunset.
