Honda Compact SUV teased

Honda has revealed a single photograph of an all-new compact SUV concept that will make its debut in the upcoming Shanghai Auto Show on April 22, 2015. The new car will most probably feature styling based on the likes of the Honda Amaze or Mobilio and will most like share the platform too.

The new compact SUV, meant to target buyers in countries like India and China will feature sporty styling and a muscular body as compared to the slightly sleeker Vezel SUV.  It has been developed by Guangqi Honda Automobile and Dongfeng Honda Automobile, part of Honda’s Chinese subsidiary. Although no further details on the same have been leaked or released yet, we expect this same compact SUV to be the basis for Honda’s upcoming compact SUV project in India too. We also expect to eventually see the same car at the 2016 Indian Auto Expo.

In production guise, this Honda SUV will be a five seater and will feature compact dimensions. We hope Honda decided to incorporate the interior from the upcoming Jazz or the current generation City instead of using the dashboard from the likes of the Mobilio to give it a slightly upmarket feel. Expect the car to feature both petrol and diesel engines in India and a plug in Hybrid engine option in international markets. The new compact SUV will go up against the Ford Ecosport, the Renault Duster and the likes of the Hyundai ix25 and the upcoming Maruti Suzuki compact SUV.
