Overview
The Honda WR-V is Honda’s B-segment SUV, launched in Malaysia in 2023 as the DG4 generation. It is a five-seat, front-wheel-drive petrol SUV with a 1.5-litre engine and CVT, aimed at buyers considering the Ativa, X50 or Tiggo Cross. Prices start from RM89,900.
WR-V in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the WR-V carries over unchanged, with S, E, V and RS variants remaining in the range. There is no 2026 model-year mechanical or equipment update. All four use the same 1,498 cc 121 hp petrol engine, CVT, front-wheel drive and five-seat layout. Honda Malaysia’s May 2026 promotion advertises discounts of up to RM11,000 on the WR-V; that is a sales offer, not a model change.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the S at RM89,900: on the stated mechanical specification, it has the same 1,498 cc 121 hp petrol engine, CVT, FWD layout and five seats as every other WR-V. The E costs RM95,900, the V RM99,900 and the RS RM107,900. The RS is RM18,000 above the S. Pay more only after checking that each trim’s equipment suits your needs, because the stated specifications show no mechanical gain.

Honda WR-V buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The WR-V gives Honda a direct entry into the entry-level SUV field, facing the Perodua Ativa among others. Its 121 hp 1.5-litre petrol/CVT package is the same across all four trims, so the decision turns on equipment and budget rather than performance. Its entry price is RM27,400 above the Ativa and RM1,100 above the Tiggo Cross, while sitting RM100 above the Proton X50’s entry price.
