Honda to Launch 10 New Models in India by 2030, Including 7 SUVs

Honda Motor Company, Ltd., has unveiled its progressive product roadmap for India at a press conference held during the ongoing Japan Mobility Show. The Japanese automaker has confirmed plans to launch 10 new models in the country by 2030, seven of which will be SUVs. While exact details about these upcoming models remain under wraps, Honda’s emphasis on SUVs highlights its strategy to leverage India’s surging demand for this segment. 

Currently, Honda Cars India offers just one compact SUV in the country – the Elevate – starting at Rs 11 lakh (ex-showroom). With this roadmap, Honda underscores its commitment to expanding its lineup and reinforcing its presence in India’s highly competitive automotive market.

10 New Honda Models: What to Expect?

Honda's upcoming lineup will include internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid, and electric models. These new models will span across mass-market and premium segments, reflecting Honda’s intent to appeal to a wide range of Indian customers. Of the seven SUVs planned for our market, some will be imported as Completely Built Units (CBUs), while others will be developed and produced locally in India.

Honda has also confirmed that it will expand its hybrid lineup in India. It is preparing to enter the sub-4 metre segment, though it has not yet confirmed whether the upcoming model will be an SUV or a different body type.
