On April 4, 2024, the Japan Automobile Dealers Association (JADA) and the All Japan Light Motor Vehicle Association (AJLMEA) announced preliminary figures for passenger car sales by model and new light vehicle sales by common name for the period from April 2023 to March 2024. Honda’s light vehicle “N-BOX” sold 218,478 units in fiscal year 2023 (April 2023 to March 2024), ranking first in new vehicle sales, including registered vehicles. This marks the ninth consecutive year that Honda has topped the list for new light vehicle sales.

A word from the editor

The N-BOX is the only model to have sold over 200,000 units. This is truly amazing! Since 2012, the N-BOX has become such a popular model that it has been a regular on the rankings. However, if I had to say one thing, it would be that the only other Honda model to make the list is the passenger car “Freed.” Honda is about to fully redesign the “Freed,” and depending on how it turns out, there is a chance that the “Freed” could become the next N-BOX. I’m really looking forward to Honda’s next best-selling car.
