Can-Am, iconic brand of BRP Inc. (TSX/NASDAQ: DOO), proudly introduces its 2027 range of side-by-side vehicles (SSV) and all-terrain vehicles (ATV), putting Utility at the forefront for 2027. Available on almost every second-generation Traxter configuration, the XU model creates the ultimate workhorse SSV. If an ATV is the right tool for the job, the Can-Am Outlander Pro is the purpose-driven solution for any work environment.

Farmers, land managers and riders rely on an SSV that comes to work with them every day, ready to do every job that is asked of it: hold every tool needed for the day’s work, and be adaptable to changing needs and increased workloads.

Tractor homologation for on-road use

The Can-Am Traxter 6×6 XU HD10, the ultimate workhorse with a heavy-duty Rotax engine, is now available with an XU package that comes with Tractor homologation for on-road use, giving professionals greater flexibility to travel efficiently between job sites, fields, forests andworksites. Built for demanding applications, it combines exceptional versatility, capability and productivity, delivering uncompromising performance both on and off the road — moving between farms, forestry blocks and worksites on public roads under its own power, without a trailer or a second driver.

“Utility work does not follow a single pattern, and neither should the vehicle,” said Aymeric Collot, Business Development Manager, Utility, EMEA at BRP. “For 2027, the XU package brings our full work specification to almost every Traxter configuration — the machine fits the job in every regard, not the other way round.”

With the new Traxter HD10, Can-Am transfers the technology of the 2026 Traxter HD11 to its mid-horsepower segment. The model receives a new best-in-class 80-horsepower (58.8 kW) Rotax triple-cylinder engine along with a redesigned chassis and suspension, updated onboard technology and a revised interior. The three-cylinder layout runs more quietly and with less vibration, which reduces operator fatigue over a full working day and keeps noise low around livestock and on early-morning municipal routes.

Now available in Europe, the Traxter X mr HD11 takes mud performance to the next level, combining class-leading capability, purpose-built mud-ready features and relentless power for riders eager to tackle the toughest terrain with confidence. Typical applications are waterlogged pasture, rain-soaked forestry tracks and flooded field margins, where recovering a stuck vehicle usually costs a second machine and several hours of working time.

The 2027 Traxter HD11 is also equipped with BRP’s latest 10.25-inch Wireless Touch display, featuring embedded navigation powered by BRP GO! that keeps map and vehicle data available offline — relevant on large estates and dispersed sites without reliable mobile coverage. The display further adds a digital camera, which assists when reversing to a hitch or with a loaded cargo box, plus FM radio, improved digital audio, additional customization options and full-screen functionality.

In addition, for the new Traxter lineup, a new 5-inch colour instrument display positioned behind the steering wheel will provide improved visibility and a more intuitive interface. Designed to keep essential vehicle and riding information clearly within view, the display enables riders to monitor key metrics — fuel level, temperatures and drive mode — at a glance, for a more confident and connected driving experience.

The 2027 Can-Am Outlander Pro Lineup

ATVs continue to be a valuable tool, farmers and other utility-focused jobs. The Can-Am Outlander Pro was built exactly for those applications with specific work-inspired features. The Outlander Pro models feature firmer, work-oriented suspension settings, a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that is calibrated for Utility applications, front and rear bumpers, A-arm protectors and thicker-ply tires. They also continue to feature a speed limiter thanks to the Intelligent Throttle Control (ITC) system, letting farm and fleet operators hand the keys to seasonal or less experienced staff with confidence.

Offering more connectivity packages than ever before, the high-horsepower Outlander XT and Backcountry models are now available with a 10.25-inch Touch display. The intuitive infotainment system offers a built-in GPS for access to offline mapping and group ride features, while also offering convenient ride settings adjustments on the fly.

The 2027 Can-Am lineup builds on the momentum generated by the launch of the Can-Am Outlander Electric earlier this year. As the industry’s first fully electric, T-homologated ATV, the Outlander Electric has been a game-changer for agricultural operators as it combines a quiet, emission-free operation with the proven Can-Am strength.

Can-Am also expands its 2027 lineup of Can-Am SSVs and ATVs with 105 new accessories that unlock more capability and confidence in demanding conditions.

The Grove signs 10 year partnership with Toro and Reesink

The Grove signs 10 year partnership with Toro and Reesink

The Grove has secured a long-term partnership with Toro and Reesink UK, continuing a 22‑year relationship and ushering in a new era of integrated turf management.

As part of a significant new 10‑year agreement, which strengthens a relationship that has existed since the Hertfordshire resort opened more than two decades ago, The Grove has invested in a full machinery fleet renewal and update alongside the installation of a new irrigation system across the entire course.

The Grove’s leadership team put the deal out in a competitive tender process involving multiple manufacturers and selected Toro as its strategic partner for another decade.

“We’ve been a loyal Toro customer since the beginning,” says Will Evans, Agronomy and Facilities Director at The Grove. “And when we reviewed the complete solutions package, it quickly became clear it was again the right fit for us, especially with the irrigation system involved, new technologies emerging and the way the machinery and irrigation systems could work seamlessly together.

“Partnering with Reesink meant we could manage everything through one provider making the decision even more straightforward.”

While the deal includes a full machinery fleet update, there is also a heavy investment in a suite of the brand’s new digital technologies; all designed to transform turf management through real‑time data and precision control.

Fleet management and GPS spraying technology, moisture-responsive irrigation and autonomous mowing will work all together to enhance overall efficiency, sustainability, and course conditioning.

It is, says Jon Cole, Divisional Business Manager, Reesink Turfcare, an agreement that positions The Grove and Toro at the forefront of innovation in UK golf course management: “By integrating Toro’s most advanced software solutions into operations, The Grove is positioning itself as a leader in modern, high‑performance turf management,” he says.

The agreement reinforces The Grove’s position as a designated Toro showcase venue, where customers and industry partners can experience the latest innovations in turf machinery, irrigation, and autonomous mowing in a live working environment.

Will explains: “We’ve had a close working relationship with Toro and have supported its presence in the UK market for many years. It’s exciting to see emerging technologies and new products demonstrated on our course and play a role in introducing them to UK customers.”

The transition to a full wall‑to‑wall irrigation system installation is scheduled and The Grove has already trialled Toro irrigation on reconstructed areas of the course, reporting strong early results.

Reesink UK and dealer Oliver Landpower will be supporting the deal with technical assistance, weekly on‑site visits, and ongoing training for The Grove’s greenkeeping and mechanical teams.

“Our relationship with The Grove dates to 2002, before the venue opened, when we supplied its initial fleet of Toro machinery and there have been many milestones in that time,” says Glen Giddings from Oliver Landpower.

“In 2006, when The Grove hosted the AMEX Championship one of our Master Technicians was on permanent standby, supporting early-morning machinery preparation, re-grinding and technical requirements to ensure tournament-grade performance. Now, we’ve transitioned from a supplier partnership into a trusted and collaborative relationship.”

Pink Warrior Campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness

For several years now SCAG in the USA have had a campaign called “Simply the Brave”, to support their Nation’s Heroes, with machines in military colours with discounts and a contribution by them for each machine in the special series sold.

This year they have extended the Simply the Brave concept to, as they say, “support our mothers, daughters, sisters, friends, and neighbours who have been affected by breast cancer.”

The machines are bright pink – and look simply stunning.

Sales, and therefore money raised, have started off well in the USA. Over here we have had several enquiries and are having a Prize Draw for a Pink Warrior before the machines go on general sale.

About the Prize Draw:

STM have a special link with the idea of Breast Cancer Awareness in that the wife of our CEO had a gruelling journey because of it. This was what led to the idea of STM doing a Prize Draw for a machine they have bought themselves and ALL proceeds go to Cancer Research.

To purchase a minimum £5 ticket for the draw access is via the QR code which takes you to the giving page.

The Draw will take place at Saltex (11th / 12th November) on our stand QO60

About the Pink Warrior:

It’s a 52” cut petrol engine Zero-Turn Ride-on, based on the SCAG “Patriot” machine.
