GO WHERE THE OTHERS CAN'T

One of the best parts of any side-by-side is being able to go where other vehicles either can’t, or where they just wouldn’t be appropriate. And one of the best parts of Honda’s Pioneer 500 is that it can get you where other side-by-sides can’t go. At just 50 inches wide, seating for two, and room for cargo, you and a friend can explore width-restricted trails closed to bigger side-by-sides. Plus, it fits in a full-sized pickup bed for easy transport to the trailhead. It’s loaded with features like automatic transmission with AT/MT modes and a powerful engine that delivers plenty of low-RPM torque, all at an incredible value. Looking for a model with more performance and the additional versatility of a dump bed? Then check out our new Pioneer 520. Together, they’re two of the hardest-working, most versatile side-by-sides you’ll ever see—and they’re ready for work and exploring whenever you are.

Features may include:

DRIVETRAIN
  • AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH AT/MT MODE

You can let the Honda Pioneer 500’s automatic transmission shift for you, or you can still shift yourself with its paddle shifters. You can even shift from auto to manual (AT to MT) on the fly!

PERFORMANCE
  • POWERFUL 500-CLASS ENGINE

Coupled with an efficient five-speed automatic transmission, the Pioneer 500’s engine features electronic fuel injection for effortless cold-weather and high-altitude operation. It’s specially tuned for low-rpm torque, too.

VERSATILITY
  • COMPACT 50-INCH WIDTH

The Pioneer 500’s 50-inch overall width is a huge bonus. Whether it’s for width-restricted trails or convenient transportation and storage, the Pioneer 500 can go where just about no other side-by-side can!

HANDLING
  • TRAXLOK® 2WD/4WD

Our rock-solid system lets you choose either 2WD or 4WD, giving you the freedom to choose between lighter steering (in 2WD) and maximizing available traction (in 4WD) when you need it most.
