Honda ATV & Side-by-Side Canada

Our ultimate side-by-side needs plenty of power, so we built it around a 999 cc fuel-injected twin-cylinder engine with Honda’s famed four-valve Unicam cylinder head. For 2022, the Pioneer 1000 benefits from increased power in the mid and upper rpm range for improved acceleration and increased towing capacity, making it ready to deliver all the performance you need on the trails or on the job.

Honda’s fully automatic six-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission delivers more linear throttle and an updated gear selection for 2022, which has been adjusted to match the increased power output while improving the shift rhythm and consistency – with less distracting shift shock. The innovative transmission senses how you’re riding, monitoring throttle input, engine RPM, vehicle speed and more. If you’re going downhill, the Pioneer stays in a lower gear for superior engine braking. And if you want to choose a specific gear, upshift or downshift yourself in demanding conditions or even override the automatic gear selection, the twin paddle-type shifters make it easy and fun.

Venturing over really tricky, rocky terrain, hauling a big load down a steep hill, or need some real hill-climbing ability? The high/low-range sub transmission provides a full 42-percent gear reduction when you switch to the low range.

Quickly and easily choose, via a dash-mounted lever, from 2WD, 4WD, 4WD with differentials locked for the toughest conditions, or Turf mode; perfect for sensitive surfaces like grass fields

Honda’s automotive-style Electric Power Steering has been updated to improve steering effort and comfort. The EPS helps eliminate bump steer, especially over rocks, logs and on sidehills. Plus, a tilt steering wheel lets you find a position that’s just right for you and the return to center function improves handling and stability.

With the independent front and rear suspension you’re virtually assured of a smooth, well-controlled ride with generous ground clearance.

With a side-by-side this powerful and capable, you need brakes that are up to the job, too. Honda’s extensive automotive experience means you know the all-wheel disc brake system is up to the task.

The three-person Pioneer 1000 EPS features a spacious bench – the middle seat is positioned up and forward to maximize comfort and room.

You can load a full half-ton (1,000 lb.) into the bed. And when it’s time to unload, the bed’s hydraulic-assisted tilting feature makes dumping firewood, gravel, feed or other items easy. And because it’s able to tow a full ton (more than 2,500 lb.) – with a hitch mount – the Pioneer 1000’s can take on big jobs that otherwise would require a tractor or a truck.

The Occupant Protection Structure uses large-diameter tubing and includes integrated handholds, recessed top tubes and a more spacious structure to enhance protection. Hard doors and roll-up side nets provide a secure feel and keep mud and debris out of the cabin, while automotive-style three-point belts with an Emergency Locking Retractor mechanism help keep everyone secure.

The updated multi-function LCD instrumentation displays fuel level, engine speed (rpm), vehicle speed, tripmeter, odometer, a clock, gear position and much more.

Your Pioneer now comes ready for accessories thanks to a new integrated accessory panel, as well as new cup holders for taking refreshments out on the trail.
