Over the years, we introduced many models with advanced technologies that were well received in the market, and became the segment leaders. Highly popular models such as the City, Civic and CR-V contributed to the overall 1 million sales units, accounting for 37%, 15% and 11% respectively. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to all Honda customers, members of the media, our dealer partners and the Malaysian Government for their unwavering support for Honda Malaysia. It is this strong support that has driven us to achieve the 1 millionth sale unit. I would also like to extend my heartiest congratulations to all the lucky winners. The seven winners will be the only seven people in Malaysia who own these one-of-a-kind Special Edition cars, which were uniquely designed to celebrate this major milestone.”
“In addition, Honda Malaysia allocated the Jazz 1 Million Edition specially for frontliners to win. This is our initiative to say thank you to all the frontliners who have been working tirelessly over the past year to protect the health and safety of everyone in Malaysia,” added Mr. Ishiyama.
