With the Federal government tariff on imported passenger vehicles, (excluding SUV’s), being reduced from 15% to 10%, Honda Australia has chosen a combination of specification upgrades and price reductions for its 05 model range, effective 1st January 2005.

Honda Australia Director Lindsay Smalley said, “With the federal government tariff reduction and the introduction of the Free Trade Agreement with Thailand, the Honda range has become even greater value for money. We are confident that the new pricing and specification upgrades will ensure 2005 is another outstanding year for us.”
