Honda launches the new Brio with more features and cosmetic updates.
Honda has launched the Brio facelift ahead of the festive season. The new Brio carries a price-tag ranging between Rs 4.69 lakh and Rs 6.81 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Updates on the new car are mainly cosmetic while it also gets a few additional features.
Changes on the exterior include a thicker gloss black and chrome finished front grille along with a new design front bumper – similar to recently launched Amaze facelift. Around the back, the refreshed Brio gets new tailgate spoiler with LED stop-lamp. Other than that the exteriors of the Brio remain unchanged.
Inside is where the Brio has been completely revamped. Like the Amaze, it gets a new dashboard design with dual beige-black theme as standard while the top-end variant gets all black theme. Apart from that, it gets a new three-pod instrument cluster, a 2 DIN stereo with Bluetooth connectivity and digital AC controls on the top-end variant.
On the mechanical front, no changes have been made. It comes powered by the same 1.2-litre four-cylinder petrol engine that delivers maximum output of 87bhp @ 6,000rpm and 109 Nm @ 4,500rpm. 5-speed manual is standard while a 5-speed torque converter automatic is also available.
Commenting on the launch of the new Brio, Yoichiro Ueno, President & CEO, Honda Cars India said, “The Brio remains an embodiment of Honda’s engineering prowess and manufacturing excellence.
