Glamis Dunes Rentals operates the largest UTV rental fleet at Vendor Row in the Glamis Sand Dunes. Every side-by-side in our inventory runs on the Can-Am Maverick X3 platform, equipped with turbocharged Rotax engines, FOX racing suspension, and paddle tires built specifically for dune terrain. Choose from 2-seat and 4-seat models ranging from 120HP entry-level machines to 200HP flagships with semi-active suspension.
Pick up your UTV on-site at Vendor Row, receive a full safety briefing from our team, and ride the sand within minutes. Our crew provides GPS coordinates, local maps, and landmark guides so you can navigate the Imperial Sand Dunes with confidence, whether this is your first time in a side-by-side or your hundredth.
Our entire SXS rental lineup is built on the Can-Am Maverick X3 platform. This is the most trusted side-by-side in dune riding, purpose-built to handle sand at speed. The fleet is organized into three tiers so you can match the right machine to your experience level, group size, and budget.

The RS Turbo RR pushes the Rotax ACE 900cc engine to a full 200 horsepower, paired with 24 inches of suspension travel and a 72-inch wide stance. This is the off-road rental built for experienced riders who want serious dune performance. FOX 2.5 Podium Piggyback shocks absorb big hits and maintain composure at high speed. Groups looking for a thrilling ride across the Glamis dunes will find this machine delivers exactly that.
The Maverick X3 DS Turbo is the most popular UTV rental at Glamis and our most cost-effective turbocharged option. The Rotax ACE 900cc triple-cylinder engine delivers 120 horsepower, a huge step up from the Maverick Sport. Riders consistently tell us the ride quality, power delivery, and handling on this machine exceed their expectations. The 64-inch stance keeps the vehicle predictable on varied terrain, making this an excellent choice for first-time dune riders.

Riders searching for Polaris RZR rentals at Glamis often compare the RZR to the Can-Am Maverick X3. Our fleet runs exclusively on the Maverick X3 platform after years of testing both lineups in dune conditions. The X3’s Rotax turbocharged engine, FOX suspension package, and 72-inch wide stance consistently outperform comparable RZR models on the sand. Riders who have rented both platforms tell us they prefer the X3 for throttle response, suspension travel, and overall build quality.
The Can-Am Maverick X3 also holds better resale value, which allows us to rotate fresh machines into our fleet more frequently. Every side-by-side UTV rental in our inventory is current-generation and maintained to factory specifications. Riders who come in looking for a Polaris RZR side-by-side often leave as repeat Can-Am renters.
The terms UTV and SXS refer to the same type of vehicle. UTV stands for Utility Task Vehicle, while SXS stands for Side-by-Side. Both describe a four-wheeled off-road vehicle with a roll cage, side-by-side seating, seatbelts, and a steering wheel. Manufacturers and riders use the terms interchangeably. Our Can-Am Maverick X3 fleet falls into both categories, so whether you are searching for UTV rentals or SXS rentals at Glamis, you are looking at the same machines. The key difference worth understanding is between a UTV/SXS and an ATV (quad). ATVs are single-rider machines with handlebars and straddle seating. Side-by-side vehicles seat 2 to 4 riders in an enclosed cockpit. Our rental page for ATVs at Glamis covers the differences in detail and can help you decide which style fits your group.
The Maverick X3 DS Turbo (120HP) provides more than enough power to explore every section of the Glamis dunes. The 64-inch width keeps handling predictable and forgiving. Our team walks you through vehicle controls, terrain reading, and route planning before you ride.
The RS Turbo RR (200HP) delivers raw power and 24 inches of suspension travel. The 72-inch wide stance lets you push harder through technical terrain and cover ground quickly across the open sand.
Any “Max” 4-seat model works well. The Max DS Turbo ($790.90/day) offers the best value, while the Max XRS Turbo RR ($1,098.90/day) gives everyone the smoothest ride with Smart Shox semi-active suspension.
