Longitudinally Mounted Engine

Longitudinally Mounted Engine

Honda’s Pioneer range is equipped with a range of driveline features to deliver the best performance and reliability. This includes the longitudinally mounted engine, which delivers a more direct drive, minimises power loss and has the benefit of less moving parts. 

Mechanical Gearbox

Mechanical Gearbox

The state of the art mechanical gearbox with solid internal gears delivers superior reliability, with no slippage in wet conditions, no drive belts to break when fatigued and excellent engine braking for descents. 

Dual Clutch Transmission

Dual Clutch Transmission

The first and only Side by Side range to feature a Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT). The brain of the DCT, Advanced Transmission Logic, senses how you drive and adapts, allowing the next gear to always be ready and waiting when you need it. Relaxed drivers get earlier shifts for a quieter ride at lower engine speeds. 

Selectable Drive Modes

Selectable Drive Modes

Select the perfect drive mode with one easy handle, choosing between 2WD - for everyday driving, 4WD - for the tougher stuff and 4WD with Diff Lock - for the real tight spots. Always have the right mode for your situation with easy selection. 

3 YEAR WARRANTY

3 YEAR WARRANTY

Every Honda is built with reliability, efficiency and power in mind.  By choosing Honda, you are trusting in over 70 years of developing and refining advanced four stroke engine technology. We are so confident in our engineers that every Honda Side by Side comes with the added peace of mind of the Honda 3 year engine and powertrain warranty*. Letting you spend more time getting on with the big jobs around the farm and less time in the workshop!
