Can-Am Defender HD5 keeps an estimated 72% of its value after 5 years — #293 of 1052 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Can-Am Defender HD5 retains an estimated 72% of its value after five years, ranking #293 of 1052 powersports vehicles we track. That is 5 points above the 66% five-year average for UTV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
The loss does not land all at once here: the Can-Am Defender HD5 sheds about 6% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $10,399 it falls to around $7,435 by year five — a five-year loss near $2,964, about $1.62 a day in depreciation.
There is no single sweet spot on the Can-Am Defender HD5: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at.
