Aesthetics
Honda is known for designing elegant and bold cars. This is not gonna be no different. The new compact SUV might have bold looks with a big chrome bar with grille giving the car a macho appeal.
Although it is a new car, we expect it to share the underpinnings from the hatchback Jazz. Honda’s early crossover WR-V was also backed up by the same chassis.
Inside the vehicle might come with all the features in this segment like the smart connect, premium interiors and feature-loaded interiors.

Under the hood, we expect the Honda will come in a total of 3 engine options.
- Two petrol engines, one naturally aspirated engine and a 1.0-Litre turbo petrol engine.
- A Diesel might also be offered.
- Both the engine might be offered in two transmissions. An automatic transmission (might be CVT) or 6-speed manual transmission.
