Honda BR-V has 9 versions available in India from which 5 are petrol and 4 are diesel cars. Honda BR-V comes in 6 colours, namely, Alabaster Silver, Carnelian Red Pearl, Golden Brown, Orchid White Pearl, Taffeta White, Urban Titanium.It is available in the E, S, SV, V and VX trims with two engine options – the 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol and the 1.5-litre i-DTEC diesel engine. The diesel gets a manual transmission only while the petrol is also available with an automatic gearbox.
The crossover SUV and SUV market in the country is growing steadily and Honda is the latest manufacturer in the country to hop on to the SUV bandwagon. Based on the Mobilio, the BR-V is only the second SUV ever offered by Honda to its Indian customers.
The diesel engine is expected to deliver 21.9kmpl while the petrol will give 15.4kmpl ( ARAI) .
The BR-V gets a seven-seat arrangement and three-row configuration and Honda claims class-leading levels of space with this vehicle. The interior is all-black and the dashboard gets silver accents to add a dash of premium. It gets automatic climate control with separate blower for rear passengers and steering mounted audio controls. The three-pod instrument cluster gets the rev-counter on the left, the speedometer at the centre and a multi-function display embedded in the right-most dial. The centre console gets a 2-DIN audio system with AUX, USB and Bluetooth inputs but misses out on the much expected touch-screen.
