It is found that CP symmetry may be explicitly broken in the Higgs sector of a supersymmetric $E_6$ model with two extra neutral gauge bosons at the one-loop level. The phenomenology of the model, the Higgs sector in particular, is studied for a reasonable parameter space of the model, in the presence of explicit CP violation at the one-loop level. At least one of the neutral Higgs bosons of the model might be produced via the $WW$ fusion process at the Large Hadron Collider.
