518cc engine:

The 518cc engine features electronic fuel injection for effortless cold-weather and high-altitude operation. It is specially tuned for low-rpm torque, too. The mounting is longitudinal, and by orienting the crankshaft front to back in the chassis, we route the flow of power straight to the wheels without any right-angle detours, reducing powertrain friction and putting more grunt to the ground.

Suspension:

The Pioneer 520 features dual-rate springs, and after one ride you’ll feel the difference. You get a smoother ride over smaller bumps with more bottoming resistance on bigger bumps, along with a more confident steering feel. Both front and rear suspensions are fully independent double wishbone type, and have preload adjustability.

Automatic transmission:

You can let the 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 mode) on the fly. Unlike the belt-drive automatics out there, the Pioneer 520 features a transmission that uses rugged, steel gears. You get true compression braking for superior controllability (especially when descending hills), as well as long transmission life.

Tilt bed:

The super-convenient tilt/dump bed measures 983mm wide, 658mm long and 249mm high, and can carry up to 204kg. An assist strut makes dumping easy, the tailgate opens flat, and the inside of the bed is set up for plywood dividers, or to hold milk crates or plastic buckets. It also accommodates our exclusive line of Pro-Connect™ accessories.

TraxLok 2WD/4WD:

Our rock-solid TraxLok 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.

Compact size:

The 127cm overall width is a huge bonus. Whether it’s for tight trails or convenient transportation and storage, the Pioneer 520 can go where most other side-by-sides can't!

Digital display:

The multi-function digital dash display is full of the information you want. In addition to the standard gear position indicator, speedometer, odometer, trip meter, and hour meter—you get readouts for fuel level, clock, coolant temperature and Honda's "maintenance minder" system.
