All-New Honda BR-V launched in Malaysia
KUALA LUMPUR: Honda Malaysia has officially launched the stylish yet practical full 7seater crossover, the All-New BRV. The Honda BR-V (also known as Bold Runabout Vehicle) has been specially developed by Honda R& D Asia Pacific Co., Ltd. ( HRAP) for the Asean market and is the first HRAP model to be introduced in Malaysia.
The All-New BR-V is powered by a 1.5L i-VTEC engine coupled with Continuous Variable Transmission ( CVT) gearbox which was developed under Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology to improve fuel economy and deliver better driving performance.
Packed with practical and value added features that will appeal to families, the All-New BR-V does not compromise on its looks. Its solid SUV exterior gives off a tough and active appearance while the solid wing front face design provides a sleek outlook. A set of 16” Dual Tone Alloy Wheels, a Roof Rail and Daytime Running Lights ( DRL) completes that rugged look and feel of a SUV. Reverse camera and sensors are also available in this Full 7- Seater for customers’ convenience.
Stepping into the All-New BRV, one will experience the stylish and high quality material, huge space and Rear Air Conditioner. The V variant takes it a step higher by providing B- segment premium features such as 6.1” Display Audio and Auto Air Conditioning, Push Start Button and Smart Entry, leather trims, and leather steering wheels with switch audio control.
The practicality of the All-New BR-V further accentuated by the multi- configuration seats where the 2nd row seats adjust with an easy One Touch Tilt & Tumble in a 60:40 configuration while the 3rd row seats come in a 50: 50 Tilt & Tumble. A generous 11 cup holders offer the utility fit for a big family on the go without compromising on the space.
The All-New BR-V is known for many class toppers such as the biggest trunk space ( 223 litres with all seats up, 539 litres when 3rd row seats are folded), highest engine output (120PS) and highest ground clearance (201mm).
