Tracing the Honda Acty’s Evolution: Generation by Generation
For decades, the Honda Acty has quietly earned its reputation as one of Japan’s most versatile and dependable kei trucks. From narrow city streets to rugged off-road paths, the Acty has carried everything from produce to construction gear — all while packing efficiency into a tiny footprint. In this article, we trace the evolution of the Honda Acty generation by generation, highlighting how it adapted to changing needs while retaining its iconic character.
🚛 1st Generation (1977–1988): Built for the Basics
Launched: July 1977
Engine: 545cc EH 2-cylinder
Drive Layout: Mid-engine, rear-wheel drive
Body Styles: Truck (HA), Van (HH)
The original Honda Acty replaced the TN-series mini truck and was designed to meet Japan’s kei vehicle regulations. With its simple construction and clever mid-engine layout, the Acty maximized cargo space and maneuverability.
Highlights:
Minimalistic interior, focused on function
Very narrow and agile — perfect for tight roads
Known for reliability in light agricultural and city work
🛞 2nd Generation (1988–1999): Growing Up
Engine: Initially 547cc → upgraded to 656cc E07A
New Features:
Optional 4WD
Automatic transmission introduced
Special trims like the “Attack” and “Crawler”
This generation marked a significant step forward. With a stronger engine and better suspension, it was more capable off-road and on highways. Models like the Attack (with low-range gearing) made it popular among farmers and adventurers alike.
Notable Models:
Acty Attack: Designed for rough terrain
Acty Crawler: 6-wheel variant for heavy-duty needs
Street Van: A more urban-friendly passenger version
🧰 3rd Generation (1999–2009): Safety and Refinement
Engine: 656cc E07Z (fuel-injected)
Chassis Codes: HA6/HA7 (truck), HH5/HH6 (van)
Key Upgrades:
ABS brakes and airbags
Smoother ride, better ergonomics
Optional power steering and A/C
This was the “refined utility” era. While still focused on work, the Acty became more driver-friendly — appealing to businesses and individuals alike. The van variant also gained popularity for urban delivery services.
🚦 4th Generation (2009–2021): Compact, Capable, and Compliant
Chassis: HA8 (2WD), HA9 (4WD)
Engine: 656cc E07Z, ~44 hp
Design Focus: Safety, maneuverability, emissions compliance
The final generation of the Acty was developed with tighter kei-class regulations in mind. Its more compact wheelbase made it even more nimble in dense cities, while safety upgrades kept it road-legal and reliable.
Features:
Dual airbags, ABS
Improved noise and vibration control
2018 “Spirit Colour Style” special edition — a nod to the original Honda T360 mini truck
🧭 Generation-by-Generation Summary
Generation Years Engine Notable Features
1st Gen 1977–1988 545cc (2-cyl) Simple, reliable, mid-engine design
2nd Gen 1988–1999 547cc → 656cc 4WD, auto, Attack model, multiple variants
3rd Gen 1999–2009 656cc E07Z Safety upgrades, better comfort
4th Gen 2009–2021 656cc E07Z Compact design, modern safety, final version
🔚 Final Thoughts: More Than Just a Mini Truck
The Honda Acty’s evolution reflects decades of automotive adaptation — from simple utility to safe, road-ready kei innovation. Whether you're a restorer, an off-road enthusiast, or a first-time kei truck buyer, there's an Acty generation that fits your needs.
Compact, dependable, and endlessly charming, the Acty remains a quiet hero of Japanese engineering — generation after generation.

Iran hit five “Israeli” military bases during 12-day war, new satellite data reveals
New radar data indicates that Iranian missiles directly struck at least five "Israeli" military bases during the recent 12-day conflict, according to an analysis shared by US academics at Oregon State University with The Telegraph.
The strikes, which "Israeli" authorities have not publicly disclosed due to strict military censorship laws, reportedly involved six Iranian missiles hitting previously unreported sites across northern, central, and southern "Israel."
These targets included a major air base, an intelligence gathering center, and a logistics base.
Analysis from The Telegraph suggests that while most Iranian missiles were intercepted, the proportion breaking through "Israeli" air defenses steadily rose to about 16 percent by day seven of the conflict.

A Deep Dive into All Four Generations of the Honda Acty Truck
The Honda Acty is one of Japan’s most enduring and beloved kei trucks. Produced for over 40 years, the Acty has earned its place as a symbol of Honda’s commitment to innovation, simplicity, and everyday functionality. In this post, we take a deep dive into all four generations of the Honda Acty — examining how it evolved across decades, while staying true to its compact, practical roots.
🚙 1st Generation (1977–1988): The Pioneer
Chassis: TN Acty Truck / Van
Engine: 545cc 2-cylinder (EH engine)
Layout: Mid-engine, rear-wheel drive
The original Acty debuted in July 1977, replacing the Honda TN series. It was designed to meet kei-class regulations and prioritize space efficiency. The mid-mounted engine allowed for a flat cargo bed, maximizing utility.
Key Highlights:
Basic, durable, and purpose-built
Manual transmission only
Available in truck and van variants
Popular in farming and city delivery
⚙️ 2nd Generation (1988–1999): Power and Variety
Chassis Codes: HA1/HA2 (truck), HH1/HH2 (van)
Engine:
Early: 547cc E05A
Late: 656cc E07A (with ~38 hp)
The second generation introduced major improvements: more power, sharper styling, and drivetrain flexibility. For the first time, 4WD and automatic transmissions were available.
Special Editions:
Attack Model: Designed for off-roading; featured ultra-low gears and differential lock
Crawler: 6-wheeled variant for specialized terrain
Street: Passenger-friendly variant of the van
Why It Mattered:
This generation expanded the Acty’s reach — from farms to mountain towns and even international exports.
🛡️ 3rd Generation (1999–2009): Refinement and Comfort
Chassis Codes: HA6/HA7 (truck), HH5/HH6 (van)
Engine: 656cc E07Z (fuel-injected)
The 3rd-gen Acty was all about modernization without overcomplicating the formula. Honda introduced fuel injection, upgraded safety features, and improved noise insulation.
Key Features:
Power steering, airbags, ABS
Updated dashboard and improved ergonomics
Enhanced durability for commercial use
Available with real-time 4WD and 5-speed manual or 3-speed auto
It became more comfortable as a daily driver while still retaining its utilitarian edge.
🚧 4th Generation (2009–2021): Compact and Compliant
Chassis Codes: HA8 (2WD), HA9 (4WD)
Engine: 656cc E07Z (~44 hp)
The final Acty generation leaned into safety and compliance to meet evolving kei-class regulations. Though the platform stayed compact, it gained modern touches and improved ride quality.
Updates Included:
Dual front airbags
More compact wheelbase for urban maneuverability
2012 refresh with updated lights and styling
2018 “Spirit Colour Style” special edition (homage to Honda T360)
Production Ended: April 2021 — due to tightening regulations and cost constraints.
🧭 Comparing All Four Generations
Generation Years Engine Key Feature
1st Gen 1977–1988 545cc (2-cyl) Basic, tough, mid-engine design

4th Gen 2009–2021 656cc E07Z Compact wheelbase, airbags, modern feel
🔚 Final Thoughts
The Honda Acty’s four generations show how a humble kei truck can evolve without losing its soul. Each era brought something new:
The 1st was honest and mechanical,

The 3rd improved daily usability,
The 4th modernized while keeping things simple.
Whether you're looking to import one, restore a classic, or just appreciate clever automotive engineering, the Acty delivers in all generations.

Portland, OR.
My first time capturing fireworks. I made some mistakes, and I think the biggest mistake I made was being married to 100 ISO, and bringing a tripod. Fortunately for me, I was sitting right at the position directly in front of the barge, so I was able to get good shots of lovely centered fireworks. In order to get my ideas right, I shot a bit underexposed, about -1.5EV, but I think it worked out, made it harder to edit though.
My opinions and beliefs about the state of the country and my status with in it as a minority aside, I saw an opportunity for photography practice, and growth in the field, and I took it.
Thank you for seeing my work!

US man arrested while filming Home Depot ICE raid sues government for $1m
Photographer Job Garcia, a US citizen, seeks recompense after reportedly being tackled and thrown to the ground
A US citizen is seeking $1m in recompense from Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agencies after being arrested by officials last month when filming an immigration raid at a Home Depot store.
Job Garcia, a 37-year-old a photographer and PhD student at Claremont Graduate University, was tackled, thrown to the ground, arrested and detained for over 24 hours, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (Maldef) said. The advocacy group is representing Garcia.
The arrest of immigrants has escalated nationwide, notably at Home Depot sites, where undocumented laborers in particular gather in parking lots outside branches of the store chain, waiting to be picked up for casual work.

Questions about tags
- Can a mod add tags to someone else's post?
- How many tags are possible and will be shown?
I just started a movie community, with tags for actors etc already at ~30. Potentially that could increase to... hundreds? More?
How many will display? Will it always display all of them or can it be hidden /drop down, like spoiler text? Perhaps partially, e.g. the top tags are shown by default but you have to click "Expand" to see the rest. - What about tags in places other than the Piefed tags entry field? E.g. in post body, comments etc. Are they... "recognized" / "effective"?
- Dammit, I had one more, can't remember it now.
Re: 3. No. For sending, they need to be in that tags form field, and for receiving, they need to have been in the ActivityPub "tags": {"type": "hashtag"} section for a post. For both directions, PieFed isn't regexing any text anywhere to look for something that might be a tag.
