Honda WR-V Exterior

With its action-packed features, an aggressive front fascia with chrome grille, the compact SUV smiles at you with its beaming LED lights. The solid bold chrome grille accentuates the looks, with the Honda emblem placed perfectly at the centre.

The new advanced LED projector headlamps illuminate the road ahead for a considerable distance. If the visibility is poor, you always have the option of switching on the fog lamps placed strategically below the bold LED headlamps.

While the front headlights cause a flutter, the rear LED combination lamps can blow your mind away as they gel perfectly with the WR-V design to make a forceful statement.

The VX variants feature an electric sunroof with a one-touch open/close function and auto-reverse. The ORVMs with turn indicators add to the vehicle's safety. The advanced R16 dual-tone diamond-cut alloy wheels add to the vehicle's stature. The side protective cladding and the silver-coloured front and rear bumper skid plates make this vehicle look elegant and imposing.

Honda WR-V Interior

The first aspect that strikes you in the compact SUV is the spacious interior design that frequently encourages you to go on long drives. The driver gets full assistance from the advanced multi-information combi-meter with Eco Assist ambient rings that provide all the required information in a single place. The tilt and telescopic adjustable steering wheel make it a pleasure to drive the vehicle.

The interiors are comfortably spacious to accommodate five adults, including the driver. The premium seat upholstery with a unique emboss and mesh design provides maximum comfort to the occupants. Another excellent aspect of this SUV is the 363L boot space that allows you to stack your luggage conveniently.

This car takes care of minor aspects like a glove box, front/rear bottle holder, driver cup and smartphone holder, front armrest with power outlet, and the spacious front console with USB and HDMI accessory sockets.

The Digipad 2.0 touchscreen advanced display audio system is this vehicle's highlighting feature. Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility, media player, and weblink (smartphone connectivity) are excellent features to have in the Honda WR-V.

The 1.5L diesel engine is comparatively more powerful as it produces 73kW power @ 3600rpm and delivers mileage performance of 23.7kmpl.
