Honda Malaysia has revealed that it will launch 4 new models in 2023. One of those quartets is likely to be the all-new 6th-generation Honda CR-V which made its regional debut in Thailand in March.

Recently, a Facebook user who goes by KeVin Leong uploaded a photo of a heavily camouflaged Honda CR-V in what appears to be around Pahang. Comments on the post have mentioned that similar camo’d units were spotted around Muadzam Shah in the southern part of the state.

Prices for the all-new CR-V in Thailand have gone up by around 4.4 percent compared to the previous generation. As such, that price hike should also be expected once the sixth-gen model makes an appearance in Malaysia given the weakening ringgit.
