Smarter than the trail
Automatic six-speed DCT
Our automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) boasts a class-leading gear-driven setup, giving you manual or automatic control. It has efficient power delivery, true engine braking, and superior performance compared to belt-driven CVTs.
Hard doors are standard, offering full coverage and excellent weather protection. They provide extra storage space with cupholders and secure compartments. Doors use a double-latch design that’s rattle-free.
Smarter than the trail
Shorter wheelbase
The 87.6-inch wheelbase contributes to this sport side-by-side’s tracking while also giving you a super-smooth ride. At 64 inches wide and shorter than the Talon 1000R, the Talon 1000X emphasizes quick handling and maneuverability.
The FOX Live Valve model features cutting-edge semi-active FOX suspension that dynamically adjusts compression damping for each wheel. This system offers reduced body roll, smoother terrain navigation, and superior resistance to bottoming.
Giving the engine a camshaft with a high lift and long duration helps transform the engine. Better breathing helps the Talon make more power and keeps that power coming all the way to redline.
Semi-dry-sump lubrication
Keeping engine oil away from the crankshaft helps eliminate windage losses, while the semi-dry-sump design also helps ensure more positive oiling under extreme driving conditions. The result is better engine lubrication and longer engine life.
Rubber-mounted engine and exhaust
In addition to the suspension, we rubber-mounted the engine and exhaust system to insulate the cabin against excessive vibration. We also gave the engine four mounts to add strength under high loads.
Tight turning radius
Designing our Talon models with a tight turning radius helps improve maneuverability. That’s not just a benefit in technical terrain, but it also makes loading and unloading easier too.
Engine location
Engine placement is pivotal, situated behind the cab for optimal balance and neutral weight distribution, ensuring exceptional control.
2WD/4WD shift on the fly
With our torque-biasing brake i-4WD traction control system, you can maximize available traction when you need it and have effortless steering when you want it, all without the need for a diff lock.
Hill Start Assist
Hill Start Assist automatically holds you in position while you move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator—there’s no roll-back drama. It even works on the downhills, too!
Advanced Transmission Logic
The brain of the DCT, Advanced Transmission Logic, senses how you drive and adapts. Relaxed drivers get earlier shifts, while sportier drivers will hold each gear longer. And when going downhill, you get true engine braking.
Adjustable driver's seat
Designed to fit a wide range of operators, the adjustable driver’s seat locks positively in position without wobble, helping make you feel more connected to the vehicle.
Electric Power Steering
Honda's Electric Power Steering (EPS) technology keeps getting better. It eliminates bump steer, reduces fatigue, and provides added assistance in 4WD, lower speeds, and rough conditions. The system is specially tuned for sport-driving, and there are no belts or pumps to slip, break, or leak.
Integrated switch panel
We’ve included a centrally mounted switch panel that makes adding accessories like a winch or additional lighting easier than ever. It also helps keep the cabin looking tidy.
