BRP BREAKS GROUND ON NEW CAN-AM ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLES PLANT IN QUERETARO

Querétaro, Mexico, October 3, 2022 – BRP Inc. (TSX:DOO; NASDAQ:DOOO) confirms the start of
construction of its first EV manufacturing plant and a major milestone in the Company’s electric
journey. Today marks the groundbreaking ceremony of the Can-Am electric two-wheel motorcycle
production facility in Querétaro, Mexico, which will be adjacent to the current BRP campus in the city.
Production of the Can-Am Origin and Can-Am Pulse, the Company’s first two electric motorcycle
models unveiled at the recent Club BRP, is set to begin in March 2024, with expected deliveries to
consumers during summer 2024.

“We have set out to reclaim our motorcycle heritage with the launch of a lineup of electric 2-wheel
motorcycles, and we are gearing up to execute on our plan,” said Sandy Scullion, President,
Powersports Group at BRP. “We are excited to begin the construction of this new state-of-the-art EV
manufacturing facility in Querétaro, Mexico, on the same campus where we are already producing
our Sea-Doo personal watercraft and ROTAX engines. We look forward to producing the first electric
Can-Am motorcycles for a new generation of enthusiasts.”
The electric motorcycle manufacturing plant is planned to initially generate 500 new jobs. It was
designed following the LEED principles with sustainable materials, in line with BRP’s Corporate
Social Responsibility Plan to reduce the carbon footprint of its operations. Furthermore, the
Company intends to offer an inclusive work environment accessible to everyone, with modifiable
workstations that can be adapted to different people.
To mark the start of construction of the building, a special event was held today with BRP leaders
and special guests, including Graeme C. Clark, Canadian Ambassador to Mexico, Luis Nava, Mayor
of the City of Querétaro, Íker Jiménez, General Director of Global Economic Impulse, Tania
Palacios, Secretary of Sustainable Development of the Municipality of Querétaro and Marco del
Prete, Secretary of Sustainable Development.
