The Rancher AT. Without a doubt, one smooth operator.
There’s a simple reason why Honda’s Ranchers have long been the best-selling line of ATVs in America. First, of course, is the fact that they’re Hondas, with all the legendary dependability and quality our name guarantees. Then there’s the lineup itself, captained by the amazing flagship machine you see here: the Rancher AT. Built around the same class-leading 420cc engine as its sibling Ranchers, the AT takes it up a notch or two, pushing the performance and capability envelope to all-new heights with features like plush Independent Rear Suspension (IRS), Electric Power Steering (EPS), Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI), and a revolutionary, twin-clutch-equipped automatic five-speed transmission that’s arguably one of the slickest- and quickest-shifting gearboxes on dirt. It’s versatile, too, as the Rancher AT lets you choose between going fully automatic or shifting via the push-button Electric Shift Program (ESP).
Is there a better, more capable midsize-class ATV than the Rancher AT? The answer to that should be automatic.
