A standout feature is the redesigned logo, customized for each variant. The Standard and Premium versions feature metallic silver logos, while the Special Edition boasts a gold logo on matte black and dark blue bodies, with dark chrome accents on the matte silver variant.
The 2026 Lead retains its acclaimed storage layout, front apron design, and body lines—elements praised for their elegant, feminine appeal. LED lighting, front mask, and taillights see minimal changes, reflecting Honda’s focus on evolutionary refinement rather than radical redesign.
Spacious Storage Retained
Renowned for practicality, the new Lead enhances this trait. The expanded front compartment includes a Type-C charging port for on-the-go device charging.
