Honda Malaysia today announced the appointment of Mr. Narushi Yazaki as their new managing director and CEO. Effective from Apr 1, 2025, onwards, Yazaki succeeds the ongoing MD and CEO, Mr. Hironobu Yoshimura, who has led the company over the past three years.

With over 25 years of experience with Honda, Mr. Yazaki has previously held several key leadership positions across multiple countries with the brand, including Japan, Thailand, and the United States.

Meanwhile, the outgoing MD and CEO, Mr. Yoshimura, will return to his native Japan, as he has undertaken a new role in Honda’s head office in Tokyo. During his three-year tenure, Yoshimura played a key role in maintaining Honda Malaysia's leading position in the non-national passenger vehicle segment for 11 consecutive years and successfully navigated the company through a challenging post-pandemic environment.
