Pioneer 1000 Features

All three trims boast a 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin engine using the same compact Unicam® cylinder head design as your motocross bikes, delivering impressive horsepower and torque.

We placed the air intake higher up in the hood to ensure a clean air supply, even when fording at greater depths, resulting in improved performance.

Our advanced frame design allows you to tackle terrain with larger tires and long-travel independent front and rear suspension, providing ample ground clearance.

All models come with high-performance OTR Dirt Master tires, providing exceptional off-road traction and long-lasting durability.

The four trims offer three different wheel options: 14-inch steel, 14-inch all-black aluminum, and 14-inch black aluminum with contrast-cut highlights.

Honda was the first to introduce Electric Power Steering (EPS) for SxSs. Every EPS system features a brushless motor integrated into the ECU, while the return-to-center function makes it easier to maneuver on straight trails.

Dual A-arm suspension provides 10.5 inches of front travel and 10 inches in the rear. When paired with ample ground clearance, this maximizes traction and comfort.

The industry's first all-gear-driven six-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) allows you to choose between manual mode or fully automatic. Additionally, Sport Mode has been added to increase the fun by shifting at higher RPMs.

The Trail and Forest models feature Honda's exclusive i-4WD system. It simplifies operation, improves drivability, and optimizes traction with its industry-first brake-traction control system.

The DCT's Advanced Transmission Logic system senses your driving and adapts. Relaxed drivers get earlier shifts for a quieter ride. Sportier drivers get each gear held longer for higher RPM shifts. And you get real engine braking when going downhill.

The parking brake is designed to be smart and simple. It has a single push/pull cable that makes adjustments and servicing easy.

One of the most impressive features of this vehicle is its half-ton hauling capacity. No other side-by-side can haul more weight. Additionally, we've made it easier to dump with a hydraulic assist tilt bed lever.

The 1000 lineup can haul up to 2500 pounds, making it possible to complete bigger jobs without having to use a tractor or a truck.

It's purpose-built for the American market, right here in America, using domestically and globally sourced parts assembled at our plant in Timmonsville, South Carolina.

With a 42% gear reduction between High and Low, you get the necessary torque in all six gears, which comes in handy when navigating difficult terrain, climbing steep hills, or towing heavy loads.

We have improved the gear ratios in all 1000 models' transmission, subtransmission, and final drive to enhance versatility under all driving conditions.

Steering column-mounted paddle shifters add a dose of performance to every drive. In Manual mode, they let you shift without ever taking your hands off the wheel, and in Automatic mode, they let you override the current gear with a quick up or downshift.

To avoid damaging sensitive surfaces, make sure to select Turf Mode. If you require maximum traction, switch to 4WD. And if you need the most power for all four wheels, lock the front and rear differentials. The best part is that you can easily do all of this with just a single lever.

It's easy to change the color scheme with new door and bedside panels in case of damage or to refresh your look.

The Trail and Forest models come with factory accessories, such as Warn winches, special wheels, cabin lighting, and unique paint and graphics, to enhance your off-road experience.

A tilt-steering wheel is designed to make getting in and out easier than ever to ensure an even more comfortable driving experience. We’ve given it a wide range of adjustments and a spring-loaded damper that makes tilting it a snap.

The convenient underseat storage area has a large opening, which keeps objects close at hand and easily accessible.

This practical under-dash shelf is standard on the Deluxe, Trail, and Forest editions and an available accessory on the standard 1000. It keeps frequently used items right up front in the cab.

Installed at the factory and built right into the chassis, the 4500-pound Warn winch is available as standard equipment on our Forest and Trail models and as an option on the standard and Deluxe.

We’ve pre-wired all models for accessory switches. This slashes installation time for things like a winch alone and makes it easier and cleaner. We’ve even included an extra, integrated grounding terminal.

Whether on the trail before sunrise or camping overnight, our Forest Edition features integrated LED bed lighting on both the left and right sides. (Available as an accessory on all other 1000 models.)

The Deluxe, Trail, and Forest all feature a standard 12-volt power socket in the bed. This outlet uses a common “cigarette-lighter” style and is perfect for powering things like a spotlight, air compressor, and more.

Our 1000 Trail and Forest Editions have an interior light that illuminates the cabin's floor area. It’s convenient and helps increase the visibility of the under-dash storage area in low-light conditions.

Contoured for three passengers, the seat features a center positioned up and forward to maximize space and comfort and a tough covering designed to resist the elements and heavy use.

All models feature an integral rear-view mirror mounting bracket on the rollover protection structure. The mirror is standard equipment in the Trail edition and an accessory available in all other trims.

Our engineers have made some big improvements to the whole lineup when it comes to managing cabin heat. You’ll ride cooler and be more comfortable in warm-weather conditions.

The LCD instrument display is easy to read and has big, bright graphics. It includes indicators for speed, fuel level, RPM, transmission mode, water temperature, trip information, and more.

Standard equipment on the Deluxe, Trail, and Forest: the switch panel has room for seven switches, letting you control things like a winch, accessory lights, and more. A fully integrated design, it sits in the center of the dashboard.
