This machine checks a LOT of boxes! I'm excited to get my hands on one. Thanks for giving me another small taste of the Pioneer! Obviously you were able to fit two adult males in the back seat, so that's pretty impressive. I'm sure it wasn't comfortable to the point that they would want to spend hours back there, but it's good to know that it can be done. I just think this is the perfect machine for what I'm looking for. I'm able to take it out with my buddies and have some fun with the 1000cc power, but still fit the whole family in it when we want to cruise around the neighborhood. Well done, Honda!
It has a very strong pull and moves at sharply, especially in Sport Mode. It would've been great if they would have let us line up against other side by sides. It's hard to compare in isolation but it felt really strong. With four guys in the Pioneer I'm not sure I could keep up to it on the straights with my much lighter RZR 800.
How low is the low range in manual shift?...would this thing have trouble turning all four tires in dif-lock in heavy mud?...also will it seat three in the front?...
+defstar It's pretty low- in the video with Rick driving he runs it in Low for awhile. I don't see this thing having any issues spinning any normal tire in pretty much any condition. With the massive amounts of torque and basically 12 gear ratios of direct geared drive it should really romp well in the sippy. Yes- 3 in the front- the other videos from the machine show this.
+Andy Fisher We had 5 adults for the first two rides and it motored right along. The suspension with the self leveling shocks handled it surprisingly well. There was a little bit of push in the corners with that much weight but running in turf mode alleviated that.

Is it pretty fast with 4 adults in it?
