Overview
The Honda WR-V is Honda Malaysia’s B-segment SUV entry, a compact five-seat petrol SUV aimed at buyers who want a small urban crossover rather than a larger family SUV. The DG4 generation launched in 2023, uses a 1.5 litre engine with CVT across the range, and starts from RM89,900.
WR-V in 2026 — what's new
The WR-V carries on into 2026 with no named model-year change to the S, E, V and RS line-up. All four variants remain five-seat, 1,498 cc petrol CVT models with 121 hp. The latest movement is on retail offers: Honda Malaysia’s May 2026 promotion included discounts of up to RM11,000 on the WR-V, following earlier 2025 deals of up to RM10,000 and RM6,000.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the WR-V S at RM89,900 because the listed mechanical package is the same as the E at RM95,900, V at RM99,900 and RS at RM107,900: 1,498 cc petrol engine, 121 hp, CVT and five seats. On paper you’re paying more for trim and equipment, not extra power or a different drivetrain. Pay the RM18,000 jump to the RS only if its added kit matters to you.

Verdict
The WR-V is Honda Malaysia’s play in the entry-level SUV space and an Ativa rival in positioning, but not in price. At RM89,900 to RM107,900, it costs far more than the Perodua Ativa from RM62,500, and even starts just above the Proton X50 at RM89,800 and Chery Tiggo Cross at RM88,800. Its case rests on the Honda badge, compact SUV format and simple 1.5 litre petrol-CVT package.
