The Pioneer 1000 takes everything we have learnt from our ATVs and side-by-sides and added to them. The Trail edition features a range of extras including Warn winch, Fox suspension, i-4WD and more.
A powerful 999cc twin engine, especially in the mid and top range, combined with lower gear ratios to deliver strong acceleration, versatility and performance. The towing capacity is a massive 1,134kg (with 454kg hauling) and there's added ground clearance and larger tyres. Fully-independent front and rear suspension with some of the longest travel of any multi-purpose side-by-side. And open or locked front and rear differentials that prevent you from unnecessarily tearing up delicate surfaces. And let’s remember: this is a Honda, a name that’s long stood for quality and reliability. So you get class-leading power, performance, and features, purpose-built by the best in the business.
The Trail Edition comes with a range of extras including i-4WD for smarter traction in slippery conditions, a Warn VRX 45 winch, a rearview mirror and interior light, black aluminium wheels with contrast-cut highlights, and a Fox QS-3 Quick Adjust suspension system.
Features
i-4WD
Our exclusive i-4WD system. Think “I” for “Intelligent,” because that’s exactly what it is. An industry-first brake-traction control system for side-by-sides, it simplifies operation, increases drivability, and optimises traction. Using proven, advanced technology from the Honda automotive division, you get the benefits associated with a locked front differential with none of the downsides. That means it maintains front-wheel traction even if one wheel wants to spin on ice or mud or if it’s in a hole. But at the same time, you get the lighter steering, better tracking at high speeds, tighter turning radius, and reduced kickback associated with unlocked front differentials.
FOX QS-3 Quick-Adjust Suspension
The Quick Switch three-position compression (QS3) adjuster on piggyback or remote reservoirs allow you to select between three specific settings: maximum comfort, extra support during hard acceleration, or most responsive and precise handling.
Fully-Automatic Six-Speed DCT Transmission
Drive the way you want, with the industry’s first and only all gear-driven six-speed Dual Clutch Transmission. Choose between manual mode or fully automatic. Plus, the addition of Sport Mode increases the fun, shifting at higher RPM for a spirited, full-performance driving experience.
Tilt/Dump Bed
With 454kgs of bed hauling and when it comes to dumping, we've made it easier than ever, with a hydraulic assist tilt bed lever that can be accessed from outside the vehicle, or right from the driver’s seat.
More Powerful 999cc Twin-Cylinder Engine
We've given the engine huge power in our entire Pioneer 1000 lineup, especially in the midrange and top end. And thanks to the lower gear ratios, you’ll feel quick acceleration and stellar overall performance. Using the same Unicam® cylinder head design found in our motocross bikes, the class-leading 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin is compact, while delivering the kind of horsepower and torque you’d expect from a flagship model.
Powerful Brakes
The Pioneer’s uncompromising power helps take you further than ever before. The reliable disc brakes help you stop on a dime. Built to the same standard as you'd find in our autos, the four-wheel disc brakes help minimise debris build up, ensuring consistent performance and giving you confidence on the trail.
Updated Dashboard
Updated dashboard offers better control at your fingertips to select the right driving mode, control gears, and switch between 2WD and 4WD. All the essential data is fed back to you via the easy to read LCD screen, and there's dual cup holders to bring the coffee along on the cold mornings.
Easy to Read Multi-Function Dash
The multi-function LCD dash display is large enough to host loads of information, in an easy-to-read way, like speed and fuel level. RPM and transmission mode. Fuel gauge, water temperature, trip information and more. It even includes a clock, so you’ll always know when it’s time for some fun.
A Breath of Fresh Air
To get the most out of your engine, you need the best air going into it. That’s why we positioned the air intake up high under the hood. It helps ensure a clean air supply, even at deeper fording depths, and with a new viscous air filter element, you get increased performance and longer service intervals.
1100kg+ Towing Capacity
The Pioneer 1000 is capable of towing 1,134 kilos. So instead of hopping on the tractor or taking out the truck, you can stay right in your side-by-side and tackle those bigger jobs with relative ease.
14" Alloy Wheels
The Pioneer 1000 Trail Edition gets 14-inch black aluminum wheels with contrast-cut highlights.
Interior Light
The Trail Edition comes with an interior light that lights up the floor area of the cabin. It’s convenient, and a big help illuminating the under-dash storage area so you can find your items in low-light conditions.
Warn VRX 45 Winch
This is a huge upgrade and standard equipment on our Pioneer 1000 Trail. The winch is installed at the factory, and is built right into the Pioneer’s chassis, not added on as an accessory. With a 2000+ kg capacity and spooled with steel cable, you'll be ready to pull your buddy out when he gets stuck!
