The unexpectedly high record bookings have led to a four-month waiting period, and Honda Malaysia is currently reviewing its production scheduling. With the All-New HR-V being produced at the No.2 Line plant in Pegoh, Malacca which has flexible production schedule, they are able to promptly revise the production plan and is working hard to reduce the waiting period. Honda Malaysia is apologizing for the delay in delivery and will announce the new waiting period once it has been finalised. Honda Malaysia has also set a new record in February 2015 with the highest ever number of bookings received in its history at 11,047 units and more than 6,000 units sold. This new record was driven mainly by bookings for the All-New HR-V, City and followed by Jazz.
