Honda Malaysia Shifted 72,301 Units in 2025, No. 1 Non-National Car Brand for 12 Years

Honda Malaysia sold 72,301 units in 2025, retaining its position as the number 1 non-national passenger car brand for the 12th consecutive year.

Honda Malaysia Sdn Bhd (HMSB) today announced that it has sold a total of 72,301 vehicles in 2025, which is enough for it to continue the long 12-year streak as the number one non-national passenger vehicle brand in Malaysia.

On a broader scale, the automaker’s total sales in 2025 represent an 8.8% market share compared to the new record-breaking total industry volume (TIV) of 820,752 units reported earlier this month by the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA).

Compared to the previous year, however, Honda’s sales performance has slightly dropped in 2025, as the automaker previously recorded a total sale of 81,600 units back in 2024, or about 11% less.

Going model-by-model, the HR-V was crowned the best-selling model for Honda Malaysia in 2025, accounting for 25% of its total sales last year. This is followed by the City sedan and the CR-V SUV, which accounted for 24% and 15% of Honda’s total sales volume, respectively. As for the hybrid models, both the HR-V and CR-V e:HEV have accounted for up to 30% of Honda’s total hybrid sales in 2025.

Commenting on this sales record, Honda Malaysia Managing Director and CEO Narushi Yazaki said, “I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to our customers for their continued confidence and unwavering trust in the Honda brand, which inspires us to keep raising the bar.”

“As we mark 21 years (2004–2025) since the introduction of our hybrid technology, strengthening the presence of our hybrid models across major segments remains a key priority. By integrating advanced hybrid technology, we aim to deliver an engaging and rewarding driving experience for every customer. We remain committed to driving long-term growth and supporting a more sustainable future for the Honda brand,” the CEO continued.
