Honda Malaysia has announced that it is set to introduce six new models in 2026. This was revealed by its MD and CEO, Narushi Yazaki, at the company’s annual media gathering held earlier tonight. The six new models will assist in the push towards a baseline sales target of 60,000 units that the company has set for the year.
There was no intimation to the identity of the six models, but some vehicles are certain, in that they have been earmarked for our market. The first of these is the new Prelude, which was teased via a social media post late last year – the BF1 is certain to make it here later this year.
There’s also the Super-ONE, the small kei-sized EV which Honda has previously said was due for ASEAN markets, including Malaysia. Up to early this year, it was almost certain that the hatchback was on the way in, having been caught testing in Malaysia back in November.
However, the RM250k price cap that has now been imposed by the government on new CBU EV models might change that. Until clarity on the matter comes, it’s not a certainty the Super-ONE is one of the six, but we’ll count it anyway.
The other four are harder to spot, but we’ll hazard a guess. There’s a very remote possibility that the StpWgn could be one of them, given that the MPV has already made its way into Thailand and Indonesia. Still, it’s a long shot, I’d think. Another long shot is the Elevate SUV.
More likely is something closer to home, like the minor change version of the CR-V (which was given an update for 2026 in Thailand in December). What else? Well, the WR-V and City/City Hatchback could be candidates for updates, but anything coming about would be minor. We’ll know in due time.
