The hybrid-powered car was officially launched at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2025.
This product from the manufacturer with the upright H logo is claimed to have various advantages to offer consumers in the country.
The Honda Step WGN e:HEV is described as an urban family car. It offers efficiency, comfort, and practicality with more than 100 functional features.

Regarding the appearance of the Honda Step WGN e:HEV, the four-wheeled vehicle features a boxy design typical of Japanese MPVs (Multi-Purpose Vehicles).
Additionally, its spacious cabin allows the owner to carry many passengers and goods.
Moving into the cabin, a premium feel is immediately apparent through the combination of leather and fabric materials, a dashboard with brushed aluminum accents, and warm cabin lighting.
There is also an eight-inch touchscreen head unit with smart device connectivity, Bluetooth, and six speakers ready to support entertainment needs.
