Honda Malaysia has officially launched the all-new 2023 Honda WR-V small SUV here in the country.
It has been a month since the Honda WR-V was opened for bookings and so far, Honda Malaysia has received over 2,500 bookings for its latest small SUV – 45% of them being the range-topping RS variant.
Speaking of variants, the Honda WR-V is available in four different models – S, E, V, and RS. If you’re wondering about pricing, the official selling prices are listed below (OTR excluding insurance):
Honda WR-V S variant – RM89,900
Honda WR-V E variant – RM95,900
Honda WR-V V variant – RM99,900
Honda WR-V RS variant – RM107,900
Despite the price differences, all variants are fitted with the same 1.5-litre DOHC i-VTEC engine that produces 121PS and 145Nm of torque. As mentioned in the previous coverages, it’s the same unit that can be found in the City and base HR-V models.
Power is sent down to the front wheels via a CVT gearbox and with normal everyday drives, fuel consumption can go as far as 16.7km/l. We had a few days with the Thai RS-spec WR-V and to know more, CLICK HERE.
