Getting Started to Buying a Honda

How do I buy a new Honda from Kah Motor?

You can buy a new Honda from Kah Motor in three steps: choose your model and variant, book a test drive or request a quote, then place a booking with one of our sales advisors at your nearest branch. Kah Motor handles the rest, including financing arrangements, insurance, registration and delivery, so you collect a road-ready car. You can start online by requesting a quote or messaging us on WhatsApp, or walk in to any Kah Motor showroom.

You are welcome to walk in to any Kah Motor showroom during operating hours, and no appointment is required to browse or speak with a sales advisor. Booking ahead is worth it if you want a specific model ready for a test drive or you want to see a particular advisor, because it guarantees the car and the person are available when you arrive. Message the branch on WhatsApp to arrange a time.
Book a test drive with Kah Motor through the “Book a test drive” form on any model page, by WhatsApp, or by calling your nearest branch. Tell us the model you want to drive and your preferred branch, and an advisor will confirm a slot with the car ready. Test drives are free and carry no obligation to buy.
To buy a Honda from Kah Motor you will generally need your MyKad (or passport for non-citizens), a valid driving licence, and, if you are financing, proof of income such as recent payslips, bank statements or EPF statements. Business or company purchases need additional documents such as the SSM registration and company bank statements. Your Kah Motor advisor will give you the exact checklist for your situation before you place a booking.
The waiting period depends on the model, variant and colour you choose and on current stock. Popular variants held in stock can be ready within days, while a specific colour or a high-demand model can take longer. When you place your booking, your Kah Motor advisor will give you the current estimate for your exact configuration and keep you updated until delivery.
Yes. You choose the variant and exterior colour when you place your booking with Kah Motor, subject to what Honda Malaysia offers for that model and to current availability. If the exact colour you want is not in stock, your advisor will tell you the expected wait or suggest the closest available option. See each model page for the current variant and colour range.
Yes, non-citizens can buy a Honda from Kah Motor. You will typically need a valid passport. Financing approval for non-citizens is assessed by the banks and terms can differ, so paying in full is often simpler. Your Kah Motor advisor will confirm what applies to your case.

Pricing and Payment

How much does a new Honda cost in Malaysia?
New Honda prices in Malaysia vary by model and variant, and Kah Motor publishes current on the road prices for the full lineup on our Honda price list page. Rather than quote a figure that dates quickly, we keep pricing in one place that is always current, and you can request a personalised quote for the exact model, variant and branch you have in mind. See the Honda price list for today’s prices.

On the road (OTR) price is the total you pay to drive the car away, including the vehicle price, registration, number plate and the first year of road tax, and it is the figure most Malaysian buyers compare on and it usually includes insurance. Kah Motor’s quotes state clearly what is and is not included so there are no surprises at delivery.

Honda’s recommended pricing is set by Honda Malaysia, and what your advisor can flex is the package around it, such as current promotions, trade-in value, financing terms, accessories and free items. The clearest way to see your best all-in figure is to request a personalised quote from Kah Motor, which brings the current offers together for your exact configuration.

Get a personalised quote from Kah Motor through the “Get a quote” form, by WhatsApp, or by asking any sales advisor. Share the model, variant and your preferred branch, and we will send back an all-in figure covering the car, current promotions and, if you want, financing and insurance estimates. Quotes are free and carry no obligation.
A booking deposit secures your car and starts the order, and the amount depends on the model and the current terms at the time of booking. It is separate from your loan down payment and is applied toward your purchase. Your Kah Motor advisor will confirm the exact booking amount and what it covers before you commit.
Honda promotions change from month to month and can include rebates, low interest financing, free servicing, insurance offers or accessory packages depending on the model. Because they move often, Kah Motor keeps live offers on the relevant model pages and shares the current deal when you request a quote. Message us on WhatsApp for what is running this month on the model you want.
Yes, you can pay for your Honda in full rather than taking a loan, and many buyers do. Paying in full removes interest costs and simplifies the paperwork, though you will still arrange insurance and registration, which Kah Motor handles for you. Tell your advisor you intend to pay in full and they will structure the booking accordingly.

Financing and Trade-in

What financing options are available for a Honda?
Kah Motor arranges hire purchase financing for your Honda through a panel of Malaysian banks, and your advisor helps you compare interest rates, tenures and monthly instalments to find the best fit. You choose your down payment and loan tenure, and the bank assesses your eligibility. You are also free to arrange your own financing with your preferred bank if you preferred.
A car loan in Malaysia typically requires a down payment of around 10 percent of the price, with the bank financing the remaining 90 percent, though the exact figure depends on the bank, the model and your credit profile. A larger down payment lowers your monthly instalment and total interest. Your Kah Motor advisor can run the numbers at different down payment levels so you can see the trade-off before deciding.
Car loan tenures in Malaysia commonly run up to nine years, and a longer tenure lowers your monthly instalment but increases the total interest you pay over the life of the loan. A shorter tenure costs more each month but less overall. Kah Motor’s advisors will show you the instalment at several tenures so you can balance monthly affordability against total cost.
Banks assess car loan eligibility mainly on your Debt Service Ratio (DSR), which is the share of your monthly income already committed to loan repayments, along with your credit history and employment. As a worked example, if you earn RM5,000 a month and existing commitments (other loans and credit card minimums) come to RM1,500, that is a DSR of 30 percent before the new car; adding a Honda instalment of about RM900 brings committed repayments to RM2,400, or 48 percent of income. Many banks look for a DSR below roughly 60 to 70 percent, though the threshold varies by bank and income band. Kah Motor works with several banks, so if one declines, another may still approve.
Yes, Kah Motor accepts trade-ins. For more info, please speak to Kah Motor’s advisor.
Yes, you can settle a hire purchase car loan early, and Malaysian hire purchase rules provide a rebate on the unexpired interest when you do, which reduces the settlement amount. The exact figure depends on your bank and how far into the tenure you are. Ask your bank for a settlement quotation, and your Kah Motor advisor can point you to the right contact.

Insurance and Honda Insurance Plus (HiP)

What is Honda Insurance Plus (HiP)?
Honda Insurance Plus (HiP) is Honda Malaysia’s motor insurance programme offered through authorized dealers such as Kah Motor, designed specifically for Honda owners. It bundles comprehensive cover with the convenience of arranging insurance in one place when you buy or renew, and repairs carried out at authorized Honda facilities.
Honda Insurance Plus is built around keeping your Honda repaired to Honda standards, which means accident repairs at authorized Honda body and paint centres using genuine Honda parts, rather than a generic panel shop. Regular motor policies can still be valid, but may route repairs elsewhere or fit non-genuine parts. Kah Motor can compare HiP against a standard policy for your car so you can decide with the full picture.
No, Honda Insurance Plus is optional, and you are free to insure your Honda with any insurer you choose. Many Kah Motor buyers take HiP for the convenience and the genuine-parts repair network, but the choice is yours. Your advisor will quote HiP alongside your purchase so you can compare it against your existing insurer before deciding.
No Claim Discount (NCD) is a reduction on your motor insurance premium earned for each claim-free year, and it belongs to you, not the car, so you can transfer it to your new Honda. When you buy through Kah Motor, we help apply your existing NCD to the new policy so you keep the discount you have built up.
You can renew your Honda insurance Kah Motor, and our service teams can arrange so you stay covered and legal without the counter queues. Renewals are due yearly, and lapsing means driving uninsured and unregistered, which is an offence. Message your nearest branch ahead of your expiry date and we will prepare the renewal.
If you have an accident, contact your insurer and bring your Honda to a Kah Motor authorized body and paint centre, where the claim is managed and the car is repaired to Honda standards with genuine parts. Kah Motor’s 4S centres handle body and paint work in-house, which keeps the repair and the paperwork under one roof. Keep your policy number and a police report where required, and our team will guide the claim.

Choosing the Right Honda

Which Honda models does Kah Motor sell?
Kah Motor sells a wide range of Honda models, including the City and City Hatchback, the Civic, the HR-V, the CR-V, the WR-V, and the Prelude. Each model page carries current specifications, variants, colours and pricing so you can compare before you visit. Tell an advisor how you will use the car and they will point you to the right models.
The best Honda for a family depends on family size and budget: the HR-V and CR-V suit families wanting an SUV with more space and a higher seating position, the City and City Hatchback suit smaller families and first cars, and the CR-V offers the most room for larger families or long trips. Boot space, rear seat room and safety features matter more than headline power for family use. Kah Motor can arrange test drives across a few models with your child seat or stroller so you can judge fit in person.
The City sedan and City Hatchback share a platform but differ in shape and practicality: the sedan has a separate boot and a more formal look, while the hatchback offers a versatile rear opening and folding seats for bulkier loads. The hatchback makes more sense if you carry awkward items or want flexible cargo space, and the sedan if you prefer boot security and classic styling. Kah Motor stocks both, so drive them back to back to feel the difference.
The honest answer is that the right car depends on your priorities, and Honda’s strengths are resale value, refinement, the Honda SENSING safety suite and a wide authorized service network, which matter most if you keep cars long term and value serviceability. Rival models can win on specific points such as headline price or particular features, and a good advisor will tell you when another car genuinely fits you better. Kah Motor would rather you buy the right car and come back for service and your next purchase than oversell you today. See our model comparison guides for point-by-point breakdowns.

Service, Maintenance and Warranty

What warranty comes with a new Honda?
A new Honda from Kah Motor comes with Honda Malaysia’s official manufacturer warranty, which covers for a set period and mileage from the registration date. Because Kah Motor is an authorized Honda dealer, your warranty is honoured across Honda’s authorized network nationwide. Your advisor will confirm the current warranty period and terms for your model at purchase.
Free service refers to the scheduled maintenance visits included with a new Honda, covering the labour and standard items for those services. It applies when you service on schedule at an authorized centre such as Kah Motor, and missing a scheduled visit can affect the benefit.
Honda vehicles follow a scheduled service interval based on distance or time, 6 months or 10,000km whichever comes first. Servicing on schedule protects your warranty, keeps the car reliable and supports resale value. For more information, please feel free to contact Kah Motor Service Team.
Honda servicing cost depends on the model and the service interval, and different mileages call for different work. For a quote on your specific car and mileage, Whatsapp your nearest branch.
You can service your Honda at any Kah Motor branch with a service centre (our 4S and 3S centres), not only the branch you bought from, and your service history stays with the car across the Honda network. This is useful if you move or travel, since you are not tied to one location. Check the branches page to find the nearest centre that offers servicing.
Yes, servicing your vehicle at an outside (unauthorized) workshop while your car is still under the manufacturer’s warranty can risk voiding your warranty or cause major delays if you need to make a claim.
Yes, Kah Motor operates authorized Honda body and paint facilities at our 4S centres, where accident and cosmetic repairs are carried out to Honda standards using genuine parts and factory-matched paint. Keeping body and paint work in the authorized network protects your car’s finish, structural integrity and resale value, and it integrates cleanly with an insurance claim. Contact a 4S branch or message us to start a repair or claim.
Book a service appointment with Kah Motor via WhatsApp, or by calling your nearest service centre. Booking ahead means your car goes in at your slot rather than waiting behind walk-ins, and you can tell us the service or issue in advance so parts are ready. Walk-ins are accepted where capacity allows, but an appointment is faster.

Branches and Contact

Where are Kah Motor's branches?
Kah Motor operates a network of Honda showrooms and service centres across Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah, anchored by our Penang headquarters, with branches across the northern, central and southern regions of Peninsular Malaysia and in Sabah.
A 4S centre offers Sales, Service, Spare Parts and Body and Paint under one roof, while a 3S centre offers Sales, Service and Spare Parts without in-house body and paint. In practice, choose a 4S centre if you need accident or paint repairs, and either for buying, servicing or parts. Each Kah Motor branch page states which services it offers, so you can pick the right one for your visit.
Choose the Kah Motor branch nearest to you for convenience, and check whether it offers the specific service you need, since a 4S centre adds body and paint while a sales-only outlet does not service cars. For buying, any showroom works; for accident repair, choose a 4S centre.
The fastest way to reach Kah Motor is WhatsApp, which is how most Malaysian buyers prefer to talk to us, and each branch also lists a phone number and individual advisor contacts. Message us with your model or question and an advisor will reply during business hours, usually quickly. You can also use the contact and branches pages to reach a specific location directly.
Kah Motor’s showrooms and service centres keep standard retail hours, and exact opening times vary by branch, including weekends and public holidays. Each branch page shows that location’s current hours so you can plan your visit. If you want to be sure a specific advisor or service is available, message the branch ahead on WhatsApp.
