First Look At Honda’s 2019 Pioneer 700

The Honda Pioneer 700 was the UTV that began an incredible new run of even more advanced machines for loyal customers everywhere. This midsize utility rig gives you the ability to ride adventurous trails with confidence as well as to work like your income depends on it. Starting at an insanely affordable price of only $10,799 the Pioneer 700 features an automatic transmission that will handle the shifting for you. All of the Pioneer 700 models also offer 2WD, 4WD, and 4WD differential lock for the gnarly paths that life takes you on. If you have a more adventurous side, the steering-column-mounted shift paddles of the Deluxe unit will allow you to take control of the ride. However, that is just one feature of many.

As with previous models, the 2019 Honda Pioneer 700 Deluxe has a simple solution to those tough, rocky or slow-moving trails where you just need to concentrate on the road ahead and not on muscling the steering wheel. Honda's Electric Power Steering (EPS) will give you comfortable control, and its regressive nature will still allow you to feel the trail beneath the wheels, lowering assist once the speed picks up. When nature throws an obstacle course at you, just smile and motor on!

The 675cc fuel-injected engine is stout and provides torque for towing or hauling heavy cargo in the dumping cargo bed. The Pioneer boasts a 1,500-pound tow rating as well as up to 1,000 pounds in the bed of the machine. This is most likely more than you will ever need, but knowing the Pioneer is up to the task is a bonus in itself. Have no fear for stopping the load as the hydraulic disc brakes on this machine are scaled to provide optimal effort in stopping your chariot.

As an added bonus to the already loaded package of the base model, Honda offers the Deluxe dress code for the Pioneer 700 as well. The features will include other color options over the Olive shade of green to the Pearl Orange and Honda Phantom Camo, which provides a stealthy way to slip into the hunting property in style. Of course these will bring a little higher price range, but add in EPS and aluminum wheels and the extras outweigh the cost.

Our experience with the Honda Pioneer has always been overwhelmingly positive and the 2019 models should just add to the excitement around the ranch or hunt camp. Be sure to check out the Deluxe models of these machines as well to get that extra bling or color you have always wanted.
