Can-Am Defender XT HD9 keeps an estimated 71% of its value after 5 years — #398 of 1005 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Can-Am Defender XT HD9 retains an estimated 71% of its value after five years, ranking #398 of 1005 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.
Most of the loss lands early: the Can-Am Defender XT HD9 sheds about 7% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $18,299 it falls to around $12,919 by year five — a five-year loss near $5,380, about $2.95 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Can-Am Defender XT HD9 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
