2025 Honda® Pioneer 1000-5P DLX

• Work Hard, Play Hard with Honda Pioneer

Looking for a 999 cc side-by-side that matches power, performance and durability? It’s time to get to know the Honda Pioneer 1000-5P DLX. The Pioneer’s transmission means no more messing around with belts, which is advantageous for rugged rides. The Pioneer 1000-5P DLX also has a smaller footprint than some other side-by-sides, which allows it better access in tight spots.

Features may include:

• Powerful Performance

We’ve given the engine huge power in our entire Pioneer 1000-5 lineup, especially in the midrange and top end. And thanks to the lower gear ratios, you’ll feel quick acceleration and stellar overall performance. Using the same Unicam® cylinder head design found in our motocross bikes, the class-leading 999cc liquid-cooled inline twin is compact, while delivering the kind of horsepower and torque you’d expect from a flagship model.

• Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)

Drive the way you want, with the industry’s first and only six-speed Dual Clutch Transmission. Choose between manual mode or fully automatic. Plus, the addition of Sport Mode increases the fun, shifting at higher RPM for a spirited, full-performance driving experience.

• Electric Power Steering

Honda pioneered (no pun intended) electric power steering on our side-by-sides. And we’ve never stopped making it better. Every Pioneer 1000-5 features an EPS system with a brushless motor integrated with the ECU. The return-to-center function makes it intuitive on straight trails, and the whole system feels responsive and linear.

• Independent Front and Rear Suspension

Dual A-arm suspension gives you 10.5 inches of travel in the front, and 10-inches of travel in the rear. Pair that with stellar ground clearance, and you maximize available traction and superior comfort maneuvering over terrain other side-by-sides would shy away from.

• QuickFlipTM Seats

Experience ultimate flexibility in seating options. In addition to the comfortable three passenger contoured bench seat up front, the bed incorporates a pair of QuickFlipTM seats that flip up or fold down independently in seconds. Up, they provide secure seating for one or two additional passengers; down, you get a flat cargo bed for utility use.

• Powerful Towing

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 can take on big jobs that otherwise would require a tractor or a truck.
