Honda Malaysia to launch three more EVs by 2027 after e:N1 this year – future EVs from new ‘0 Series’?

Honda Malaysia (HM) has announced it will launch three electric vehicles (EVs) by 2027 after the introduction of the e:N1, which was previewed here back in December last year. The e:N1 is one of three models that HM will be introducing this year, with the others being the already-launched Civic facelift and possibly the updated HR-V.

For now, the company is not indicating what the three upcoming EVs will be. The current range of Honda EVs include the aforementioned e:N1, which is also marketed as the e:NS1, e:NP1 and e:Ny1, along with Prologue (North America) and N-Van e (Japan). There’s also the ZDX, which is an Acura offering in North America.

Our guess is these EVs have yet to make their full debut and are part of the upcoming ‘0 Series’ range of EVs that Honda announced in May 2024. At the time, the automaker said it would release seven 0 Series models globally by 2030, with the first few due in 2026.

The seven ‘0 Series’ EVs touted include a sedan, mid-size SUV, entry-level SUV, large three-row SUV, compact SUV, small-size SUV and another sedan (albeit more compact). You can post your guesses for which will come our way in the comments below.

HM isn’t revealing if its upcoming EVs will be locally assembled (CKD) here, which is a matter of concern given the current incentives on fully-imported (CBU) EVs will be ending this year, with no word on an extension. Beginning 2026, only CKD EVs will enjoy tax breaks, but this is until the end of 2027.
