Honda Acty: a Japanese kei-class light truck with three-cylinder engines of 650 to 660 cc, kerb weights from 644 to 877 kg, as a flatbed and the Town panel version, mostly traded as a grey import outside Japan
The Honda Acty is a Japanese kei-class light truck that Honda has built since 1977 in a separate category for minicars with particularly small engine displacement and compact outer dimensions; the register lists here the flatbed Acty Truck as well as the panel-van Acty Town and four-wheel-drive versions marked 4WD. Kei status brings tax advantages in Japan and confines the engine and body to narrow statutory limits.

The register lists here 7 versions with three-cylinder engines of 650 to 660 cc and 28 kW output, kerb weights from 644 to 877 kg, gross weights from 1,130 to 1,340 kg and lengths from 3,250 to 3,290 mm.
In Japan the Acty mainly serves agriculture and small businesses as a nimble, economical work vehicle; outside Japan, kei vehicles such as the Acty are traded mostly as grey imports and valued there for farm, garden and in-plant use. Its compact outer dimensions also make it easy to manoeuvre through tight farmyard gateways and narrow older streets.
When buying used, check these lightweight vehicles for rust in the thin body panels, the running smoothness of the small-capacity engine at high revs, the condition of the four-wheel-drive system on 4WD versions, and general parts availability, which outside Japan runs mainly through dealers specialising in kei-vehicle imports, where registration paperwork is also worth checking carefully.
