Currently, Honda does not offer a new 450cc four-wheeler. In the past, Honda produced a 450-class sport quad—the TRX450R—and later an electric-start/reverse variant called the TRX450ER, but those models are no longer in production as of 2024.
Current status of Honda's 450cc offerings
Honda’s present ATV lineup emphasizes utility and mid-displacement machines rather than a dedicated 450cc sport model. The company focuses on trail and work-oriented ATVs in the roughly 420–475cc range, such as the Rancher/Foreman/Rubicon families, rather than a new 450-class sport quad.
Historical 450-class Honda ATVs
Below is a brief timeline of Honda's 450-class sport ATVs and their status in the market.
- TRX450R (also known as Sportrax 450R) – Honda’s flagship 450cc sport quad, introduced in the mid-2000s and widely used in racing. Production continued through the early 2010s with various updates to the chassis and handling.
- TRX450ER – electric-start, reverse-equipped variant that arrived later and remained in the lineup through the early to mid-2010s before being discontinued.
Today, the 450cc sport-quad segment is no longer represented in Honda’s new-vehicle lineup. Buyers seeking 450-class performance typically look to the used market or consider other brands known for race-oriented quads.
What Honda offers today instead
For riders seeking Honda reliability in a practical form, the current ATV portfolio centers on utility and trail machines with mid-range displacements. These include models in the 420–475cc range designed for work, all-terrain use, and general recreation, rather than a dedicated 450cc sport machine.
Summary
Honda no longer markets a new 450cc four-wheeler. The brand’s historical 450-class models—most notably the TRX450R and TRX450ER—are retired. Today, Honda’s ATV lineup emphasizes utility and mid-displacement machines, leaving the 450cc sport segment to legacy buyers and the used market.
