Honda Pioneers are known for running forever, but the battery won't. When yours starts cranking slowly or won't hold a charge, swap in a Motobatt AGM battery that's rated for about 20% more capacity and cold-cranking amps than the factory battery. With 16.5 amp-hours and 240 cold-cranking amps, your Pioneer will start strong and have more reserve for the accessories you've added.
Better Than the Factory Battery
- 16.5 Ah and 240 CCA, roughly 20% more capacity and cranking power than OEM.
- Heavy-duty lead-calcium grids strengthen the plates for longer life.
- AGM separators protect the plates against vibration and impacts on rough ground.
- Multi-terminal design gives you extra connection points for work lights, a radio or a winch.
- Factory activated and sealed. Check the charge, install it and go. There's no acid to add.
- 12-month full replacement warranty from Motobatt.

Who It's For
Pioneer owners who use their machines for real work on the farm, ranch or hunting property. If you run a plow, winch, work lights or a cab heater, a stronger battery gives you more cushion before you're left with a no-start. It's also a smart upgrade for anyone whose Pioneer sits for weeks between uses. Browse more Honda Pioneer electrical parts.
Keep It Running Strong
A Pioneer that's used for short chores around the property may never run long enough to fully recharge its battery. Over time, that slowly wears a battery down. A battery maintainer during slow seasons, clean and tight terminals, and an occasional longer ride all help this battery deliver the longest possible service life.
Install Notes
Make sure the battery is fully charged. Disconnect the negative cable first, then the positive, and remove the old battery. Set the Motobatt in the tray, connect positive first and then negative, and secure the hold-down. Recycle the old battery at a parts store or recycling center.
