I bought a Kawasaki Mule 610 XC this summer. 2 inches wider and 6 inches longer than the Honda, but it has a dump bed. Slightly smaller engine, top speed governed at 25, which is fine for my uses.

Don't know what the Honda costs but the Mule was about $8k out the door and so far (only have 13 hours on it) it's built like a tank

I put a Yutrax jump seat in the bed, which has been great with the kids. I also towed a 5x8' trailer with 4 people, coolers and gear in it plus 2 more in the Mule on the work day we had at my farm a few weeks ago and it did great

As a plus, the mule fits in the 5x8' trailer so the honda would too

Edited to add: my farm has very few steep hills and is at low elevation. If higher elevation or more hills you'd want some more power
