Honda Acty

The Honda Acty is a series of kei-class trucks and microvans that began production in 1977. Built to comply with Japan's strict vehicle size and engine displacement regulations, the Acty features a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout for balanced weight distribution. Early models used a 545cc 2-cylinder engine, but a 1990 update introduced the more modern 656cc 3-cylinder E07A engine and optional Real Time 4WD.

Collectors appreciate the Acty for its immense practicality, charming looks, and affordable entry price into the JDM market. Its compact dimensions make it a useful tool for farms, businesses, or as a quirky city vehicle. The 25-year import rule has opened the floodgates for second and third-generation models (1988-1999) into North America, with buyers seeking out specific trims like the 4WD "Attack" model with its ultra-low forward and reverse gears.

The market for Actys is very active, with an average price just under $10,000. Condition, mileage, and features like 4WD and air conditioning heavily influence value. While driver-quality trucks are plentiful, pristine, low-mileage examples can command prices well over $20,000, showing a strong demand for the best examples.

Prices range from $3,700 for project vehicles to $35,000 for pristine, low-mileage examples.
