The sales tax exemption for new cars ended as scheduled of yesterday, June 30, and so car companies have begun releasing new price lists factoring in SST, which is at 10% for both CBU and CKD cars. Honda Malaysia has revealed the updated price list with SST included for its model line-up on its website, although one model still hasn’t had its new price announced – this is for the CR-V.
UPDATE: Pricing for the Honda CR-V and all-new HR-V with SST is now available. This post has been updated accordingly.
The price increase for the Honda lineup in Malaysia ranges from RM2k to RM10k. Let’s start with the City sedan. The 1.5 S now costs RM3,409 (or 4.59%) more than without SST, and goes as high as RM4,388 for the 1.5 V Sensing (now RM94,600). That’s more than the increase for the 1.5 e:HEV RS hybrid, which adds on RM2,850 to bring its OTR price to RM108,800.
There’s less of a price jump for the City Hatchback, with the 1.5 S variant adding on RM2,930 to its OTR price, while the 1.5 V Sensing now costs RM3,891 more, bringing its price to RM95,600. Meanwhile, the five-door version of the e:HEV RS hybrid now costs RM2,017 more, at RM109,800.
Prices for the two BR-V variants have now increased by RM3,974 for the 1.5 E and RM4,280 for the 1.5 V. As you’d expect, the biggest increase seen is with the Accord. The 1.5 TC is now priced at RM187,400 (up by RM9,197) while the 1.5 TC-P goes for RM197,400 (up by RM10,010). These are a bit higher than that listed for the car – specified with a White Orchid Pearl exterior – in 2020 pre-SST exemption.
As for the Civic, the increase ranges from RM5,065 for the 1.5 E (now RM130,700) to RM6,350 for the 1.5 RS (now RM150,700). While Civic prices have jumped from the RM114k to RM140k that was in place prior to the SST exemption in June 2020, it’s important to note those were for the previous-gen model – the current 11th-gen model made its Malaysian debut in January this year, and so does not have any pre-SST exemption price to compare with.
The CR-V is now up by nearly RM7k for the base 2.0 litre 2WD variant, while the 1.5 litre turbo versions see prices go up by around RM8.2k to RM8.5k. The all-new HR-V which was recently launched is also up by between RM3.7k and RM5.4k, so those who managed to place a booking before the model was launched will benefit.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
City now same price with Vios but City got no BSM, RCTA and 360 camera, while Vios have. City S also same price with Vios J, but City got no 7 airbags but only 4 while Vios have 7 airbags.
agreed with you, even Vios E spec have toyota safety sense while City had nothing
Toyota is the gamechanger. Just like the immensely capable reliable but humble opposition parti here in Malaysia
U all should’ve book the new-HRV
Or similarly the ALZA, VELOZ
not yet launch, no-SST terus
HRV is junk car. Why buy HRV when blind spot monitor, 360 degree camera and engine temp status are missing. S spec also missing another 2 airbags for 4 airbags while all cars are already getting 6 airbags and more which is compulsory
S and E spec for City and City hatchback also still come with halogen headlights. Other competitors now come with LED Headlights already!!
That’s why nobody is touching Honda now. We still get lanewatch camera but not getting blind spot monitor, rear cross traffic alert and 360 camera.
Jazz Hybrid Europe is same price range as City Hatchback, but come with Blind Spot Monitor and Cross Traffic Monitor and 10 airbags but in here we pay also same price range as Honda Jazz Hybrid for City Hatchback Hybrid with no blind spot monitor and rear cross traffic alert but only come with lanewatch. Even we also got 4 airbags for low spec city hatchback known as Jazz ASEAN while in Japan Jazz got 6 airbags and more.
Civic on the other hand, we pay RM150K after price increase with tax and we got lanewatch camera but no blind spot monitor and rear cross traffic alert and also no temperature meter and getting single zone automatic control but only Civic US come with that together with dual zone automatic control
Malaysians rather buy Vios, Myvi, Ativa, X70 or Yaris. Those come with full safety system, 6 airbags and blind spot monitor. More comfort and better peace of mind than those todays honda quality. No wonder can see more Myvi and Yaris everywhere than City Hatchback. Can also see more X70 than CRV
I regret choosing Honda City Hybrid. That is because it is the only sedan hybrid at that time. Toyota is the better choice and even new Proton is better in term of quality.
i hate to agree but this time i have to agree with you. for 80-100k car with features, safety and reliability, toyota wins over honda. i hope corolla cross come with EPB.
Better buy Myvi! This city hatch is really tin kosong!
Myvi is overpriced for what your getting. Save up a bit and get X50
Honda cars looks bad anyway. Who gonna to buy honda? Poor quality, ugly interior.
Buy Kia. More nicer. Better looking than honda
6,500 ppl bought Honda last month.
nevermind, salesman will give discount later coz they need to close their sales very badly.
Many booked before Jul’22 to
Save 3-months installment LOL
Getting car this OCT-DEC rugi jugak
Only fools will buy honda, even without blind spot monitor
E and S spec for City and City hatchback still come with 4 airbags and halogen headlights!! Very greedy
Buy Honda is the smartest choice I’ve made.. no regrets.
Honda is smartest choice? Hahahaha but honda has failed so many things like quality, spec, aftersales, safety, design, spare parts and others. Better avoid honda and buy others.
Many have lost their confidence on honda, yet you saying that there are no regrets buying honda! Sorry time to move to Toyota or Mazda or Peugeot now.
Honda is only efficient in delete their customer negative comments on their products if you not already know. Tome for you to wake up.
CX-5 lagi best
Other brands including perodua, toyota, proton, mazda and peugeot are clapping to see this, after honda trolls have been trolling too much for destroying many other brands until now, honda trolls are deserved to see this
In the previous decade when T is top non-national car manufacturer, they used to offer basic features for top price. Now that H overtake T in term of sales, H brand becoming the previous T in term of safety offering. In the end car buyers always shortchanged.
