Honda Pioneer 520 SxS

Sized Right and Loaded With Features. The Honda Pioneer 520 is all about striking the right balance – between compact size and functionality, between power and versatility. It’s tough but nimble, and always ready to deliver.

• Reliable Power

  The Pioneer 520’s liquid-cooled engine provides plenty of torque and horsepower to make tough jobs or tough trails easy to handle. And because it’s built by Honda, you know you can depend on it to be rock-solid reliable.

• Efficient engine

  The Pioneer 520’s liquid-cooled engine is mounted longitudinally. By orienting the crankshaft front to back in the chassis, the flow of power is straight to the wheels without any right angle detours, reducing powertrain friction and putting more grunt to the ground.

• Ample ground clearance

  By using an overhead-valve layout and a semi-dry-sump lubrication system, engine height is significantly reduced, lowering centre of gravity while also improving ground clearance.

• Tackle any terrain

  Shiftable 2WD/4WD system provides the efficiency of two-wheel drive while retaining the ability to select 4WD quickly via a dash-mounted lever when conditions demand.

• Advanced transmission

  The availability of both automatic and manual shifting functions gives you the best of both worlds. Choose AT mode for fully automatic shifting, or override the AT settings on the fly with paddle shifters mounted on the steering wheel. Want to shift manually? Simply choose MT mode and operate the five speed transmission manually with the paddle shifters. It’s the best of all worlds.

• Smooth shifting

  By re-tuning the transmission’s automatic-mode shift map, and revising gear ratios, engineers were able to make the Pioneer 520 and even smoother operator even in tough conditions.

• Crisp performance

  Electronic fuel-injection system provides crisp performance and helps ensure trouble-free starting and operation in cold conditions and changing altitudes.

• Accessory power

  Powerful 481 watt AC generator has generous output to run electronic accessories.

• Low noise

  The stainless steel exhaust system keeps noise levels low while also including a certified spark arrester for when you’re riding in regulated or sensitive environments.
