Can-Am Maverick R 70L Fuel Tank | ApexRace99

Extended 70L Can-Am Maverick R Fuel Tank – greater range without vehicle modification

The worst moment to watch your fuel level drop? Miles from service, base, or the nearest gas station. In the case of a rally, training, or an all-day off-road drive, the necessity of refueling early doesn't just mean a loss of time. It can force a change of the planned route, an additional stop, or carrying extra jerry cans.

The solution is an extended 70L fuel tank for the Can-Am Maverick R, prepared by ApexRace99 as a ready-to-install replacement for the stock vehicle. The larger capacity allows for longer driving time between refuels without the need for additional external tanks.

How much fuel does a stock Can-Am Maverick R hold?

The factory fuel tank of the Can-Am Maverick R has a capacity of 50 liters. This applies to the Maverick R model specifications offered in model years 2024 and 2025, among others.

The ApexRace99 tank holds 70 liters, thus providing:

• 20 liters of additional fuel,
• 40% greater capacity compared to the stock tank,
• longer driving time between refuels,
• greater freedom when planning routes,
• less reliance on service points and gas stations.

This is a difference that is especially noticeable during long off-road sections, rally training, and expeditions far from infrastructure.

Why does a larger fuel tank in the Maverick R matter?

The Can-Am Maverick R was created for dynamic driving in demanding terrain. Fast sections, sand, mud, climbs, frequent acceleration, and engine operation under heavy load mean that actual fuel consumption can vary greatly depending on conditions.

For a calmer ride, the stock capacity might be sufficient. The situation is different when the vehicle is used during:

• Baja and cross-country rallies,
• long rally training sessions,
• all-day UTV expeditions,
• driving on dunes and deep sand,
• driving in mountains and on steep climbs,
• intensive driving in sport modes,
• exploring areas far from gas stations.

In such conditions, an additional 20 liters means a greater safety margin and more relaxed driving. There's no need to constantly monitor the distance to the next refueling point or adjust the entire route to the capacity of the stock tank.

How much can the range of the Can-Am Maverick R be increased?

The exact range cannot be determined by a single value. It depends on factors such as driving style, terrain type, vehicle load, tire pressure, engine configuration, and weather conditions.

However, the approximate additional range provided by 20 liters of fuel can be easily calculated:

Additional range = 20 L ÷ actual fuel consumption × 100

For example:

• with consumption of 25 L/100 km, an additional 20 L may be enough for about 80 km,
• with consumption of 30 L/100 km, it will be about 67 km,
• with consumption of 35 L/100 km, it will be about 57 km.

These are approximate values, not declared vehicle performance. However, they show the scale of the difference between the stock 50L tank and the 70L solution.

70L tank for stock Can-Am Maverick R

One of the most important features of the ApexRace99 product is its applicability in a stock Can-Am Maverick R. The tank has been prepared as a ready-to-install solution that does not require vehicle modification.

This is particularly important for owners who want to increase their UTV's range but do not plan extensive structural changes.

The ApexRace99 enlarged fuel tank:

• has a capacity of 70 liters,
• is designed for the Can-Am Maverick R,
• fits the stock vehicle configuration,
• does not require vehicle modification,
• is prepared as a ready-to-install solution,
• increases the amount of fuel available during driving,
• will prove useful in rallies and during long off-road trips.

After installation, it is necessary to routinely check the correctness of all connections, hose routing, and the tightness of the fuel system. For a vehicle being prepared for competition, it is also necessary to verify the compliance of the solution used with the regulations of the specific rally and class.

Who is the enlarged 70L fuel tank for?

For competitors participating in rallies

During Baja and cross-country rallies, not only speed matters. The ability to complete a section without unplanned stops is equally important. A larger fuel reserve provides greater flexibility in setting refueling and service strategies.

For those training before competitions

A longer training session without returning to base allows for more miles and better use of the day. This is especially important when the training location is far from gas stations.

For enthusiasts of all-day UTV expeditions

Not every off-road route passes near a gas station. A 70-liter tank allows for planning longer expeditions and reduces the need to carry spare fuel in jerry cans.

For owners of modified Maverick R vehicles

Changes in the engine, tires, vehicle weight, and equipment can affect fuel consumption. In more extensive UTV projects, a larger tank can become one of the key elements in preparing the vehicle for long and intense driving.

Fuel tank as part of UTV preparation for a rally

A larger tank capacity will not replace comprehensive vehicle preparation. It should be part of a complete system including the fuel system, cooling, suspension, drivetrain, brakes, safety, and service organization.

At ApexRace99, UTV construction and preparation begin with defining the type of rally, regulations, budget, and project goal. As part of the preparation, the fuel system, including the tank, pumps, filters, and hose routing safety, is also analyzed.

Therefore, before installation, it is worth asking yourself a few questions:

• How long will the vehicle's sections be?
• Where are the refueling points located?
• What is the actual fuel consumption during aggressive driving?
• Is the vehicle competing in events covered by specific regulations?
• How will the additional amount of fuel affect the vehicle's weight and setup?
• Have the fuel system and other components been checked before the start?

Only the combination of appropriate parts with proper preparation delivers the effect the driver expects: greater range, reliability, and the ability to maintain pace throughout the entire section.

Is it worth installing a 70L fuel tank in the Maverick R?

If the stock 50 liters regularly limits the length of your rides, the answer is simple: a larger tank allows you to better utilize the vehicle's capabilities.

The biggest difference will be noticed by those who cover long distances, participate in rallies, train far from infrastructure, or do not want to carry additional jerry cans. An increase in capacity by 20 liters provides a 40% larger fuel reserve compared to the stock configuration.

At the same time, the ApexRace99 solution remains compatible with the stock Can-Am Maverick R and does not require vehicle modification. This means that increasing the range does not have to involve starting a complex rebuild.
