Honda Malaysia has recorded its latest milestone achievement with the production of 1 million units of vehicles at its Pegoh, Melaka plant. 


Honda Malaysia's local assembly plant was opened in Pegoh, Melaka in 2003 with the number one line producing the second-generation CR-V model. Now with two lines that produce cars like the City and HR-V, Honda Malaysia is on the upward trend to sell more vehicles.

1 million production units

Honda Malaysia Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Madoka Chujo, said, "It has been 20 years since Honda Malaysia's establishment. We have evolved and recorded significant achievements since then. In March 2021, we achieved the 1 millionth sale unit milestone with all Malaysians. One year later, I am now celebrating another significant milestone with all of you – the 1 millionth production unit, through the All-New Civic."

"I would like to express my deepest appreciation to all Honda associates and suppliers for their effort, and hard work to ensure smooth production process and supply chain operations even with many challenges faced, including the COVID-19 pandemic, global chip shortage and recent flood incidents. With their dedication, challenging spirit and working together as one, we can achieve this remarkable 1 million production unit milestone." 

Also present at Honda's 1 million production unit celebration was Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Utama Sulaiman Md Ali, who said Honda Malaysia's assembly plant at Pegoh has created an excellent local economy for the area which now sees it growing beyond expectations.

Ms. Chujo added, "Honda would like to express their sincere gratitude to the Melaka State Government for their continued support for our plans for this Pegoh Plant."
