Honda manufacturer position

Honda sells passenger cars and SUVs new in New Zealand with petrol and hybrid powertrains. Fuel contamination is treated as misuse and excluded from factory warranty.

Fuel system notes

  • Fuel pump access under the rear seat is common on Honda passenger cars.
  • Recent NZ Honda range is petrol and hybrid — confirm fuel flap before dispensing 91/95 octane petrol.
