It's Official: Honda Will Produce A New Sport Side-By-Side
American Honda announced yesterday, October 9, 2018, in Las Vegas that the company will soon begin producing a new sport side-by-side. At the AIMExpo powersports show in Las Vegas, the builder of the multipurpose Pioneer lineup revealed its intention to unveil a new SxS in the sport-focused category.
November 27 will result in a new "Life Is Better SxS" Honda marketing campaign along with model info and specifications for the new SxS. Honda entered the side-by-side arena with the Big Red in 2009 but has since evolved the Pioneer range to include 500, 700, and 1000cc iterations with two, three, four, and five-seat variants. This upcoming Honda SxS will theoretically be a competitor for the Yamaha YXZ, Polaris RZR, Arctic Cat Wildcat, and Can-AM Maverick.
