How many Honda Airwaves are left in New Zealand?
Uncommon 1 in 2,029 on the road Built 2005-2010 Japanese import
Updated from the NZTA Motor Vehicle Register, counted as at 31 August 2026. Recounted every month.
A small wagon built on Fit running gear and sold in Japan from 2005 to 2010. It kept the Fit's fuel tank under the front seats, so the rear seats fold flat into the floor and the load space is far bigger than the outside suggests. Many came with a glass roof running most of the cabin's length.

The most are from 2005: 945 still registered. Every year is listed under the chart.
