Priced at $7,349 at Honda of Houston, this new Red model delivers a no-frills 4x4 platform built for property work and trail riding, with 848 pounds of towing capacity and dual front disc brakes at a competitive entry point in Honda's Rancher lineup.
About the FourTrax Rancher 4x4
The FourTrax Rancher 4x4 is Honda's workhorse ATV, built around a 420cc liquid-cooled single with fuel injection and a five-speed manual transmission you shift yourself. Selectable 2WD/4WD with a torque-sensitive front differential lets you match traction to terrain, and the electric starter can be backed by an optional auxiliary recoil pull-start for the kind of reliability that matters when you're a mile from the barn. This is the base Rancher 4x4 formula: no DCT, no EPS, no power steering tax. Honda hasn't changed it because ranchers and property owners keep buying it exactly like this.
Houston-Area Fit
Fort Bend, Waller, Liberty, Montgomery County property owners put these to work year-round on fence lines, feed runs, and livestock management, and the 4x4 with locking front diff earns its keep in Harris County clay after any rain. The 848-pound towing capacity handles small trailers and implements across acreage without needing to step up to a UTV. Weekend riders can trailer to Creekside in Splendora, under an hour from the dealership, or Xtreme Off Road Park in Crosby, about an hour east across the metro, and right now temperatures in the 70s and lower humidity make all-day runs comfortable before summer heat pushes everything to early morning sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions: 2026 HONDA FourTrax Rancher 4x4
What is the price of the 2026 Honda FourTrax Rancher 4x4?
The 2026 Honda FourTrax Rancher 4x4 is priced at $7,349 (stock #HA203591). For current availability or to discuss out-the-door pricing including tax, title, and fees, contact Honda of Houston at (281) 506-1300.
Does Honda of Houston offer financing on the FourTrax Rancher 4x4?
Honda of Houston offers financing on the FourTrax Rancher 4x4, including options through Honda Financial Services. Credit applications can be handled in person at 10039 Huffmeister Rd, Houston, TX 77065, or you can call (281) 506-1300 to get started and discuss terms, rates, and any current promotions.
What maintenance does the FourTrax Rancher 4x4 require?
Honda recommends regular oil and filter changes, air filter inspection, valve clearance checks, and drivetrain fluid replacement at intervals outlined in the owner's manual. The 420cc single is liquid-cooled, so coolant level and condition should be monitored as well. Because the Rancher uses a five-speed manual transmission and a front differential, keeping both gear oil and diff fluid fresh is important, especially if you ride in mud or water crossings frequently.
Does the FourTrax Rancher 4x4 have selectable 2WD/4WD?
Yes, the Rancher 4x4 has rider-selectable 2WD/4WD with a torque-sensitive locking front differential. You can run in 2WD for lighter duty and better steering feel, then switch to 4WD when conditions get tough. That front diff is particularly useful in Harris County clay after rain, where traction disappears quickly without it.
Do I need to register the FourTrax Rancher 4x4 in Texas?
In Texas, ATVs operated on public land or any public road (even to cross it) must be titled and registered through the county tax office. If you plan to use the Rancher exclusively on private property, titling is still recommended for proof of ownership and resale purposes, but registration requirements differ. Texas does not require a standard driver's license specifically for off-road ATV use on private land, but public land and road use carries additional requirements.
What warranty comes with the 2026 Honda FourTrax Rancher 4x4?
The 2026 FourTrax Rancher 4x4 comes with Honda's transferable one-year limited warranty with no mileage cap. Extended coverage is available through a HondaCare Protection Plan, which can be added at the time of purchase. For details on what the plans cover and current pricing, call Honda of Houston at (281) 506-1300.
