Honda has launched its
much awaited MPV, the Mobilio and aggressive promotions are already under way.
So then let us tell you what you need to know about Honda’s MPV.
How does it look: -
When it comes to
exteriors, it seems Honda has done a pretty good job here. The Mobilio is under
stand ably a lot longer than the Brio Hatch back and even the Amaze Sedan and
is even longer than the Maruti Ertiga its chief rival. At the front you will
find a large developed of chrome at the grill to make it seem a lot more
premium looking, then you fill find an aggressive front bumper, all this has
been done to keep the Mobilio different looking from the other Honda cars and it
has done a quite well here. Move to the side, you will see some clever design
details hiding the bulk of the car. Move to the rear and you will definitely
see the best angle of the Mobilio, wrap around look of the rear wind screens
and red attractively shaped tail lights clearly make it good looking. In fact,
we have to say over all as an exterior design of the Mobilio is definitely one
of the best looking MPV’s around.
What about the Interiors:
-
The Mobilio is an MPV,
which means find MPV Space and Practicality is really important and its cause
well here. The Mobilio is actually quite easy to get in and out and from inside
it feels quite spacious thanks to large windows. When it comes to space, the 2nd
row is really comfortable in fact you have to say even the 3rd row
offers decent comfort. When it comes to practicality, the Mobilio offers 60:40
split seats for the 2nd row and you get 50:50 split seats for the 3rd
row. Mobilio also does well in the features, you get a touch screen system,
rear view camera, Bluetooth and steering mounted audio controls on the top end
variant. Design wise under stand ably a lot is shared with the Amaze and the
Brio but you have to say quality is definitely not the class best on first
impression at least.
What about engines: -
When it comes to engine
options the Mobilio will have a 1.5 L Petrol and a 1.5 L Diesel engine. The
petrol will also have an automatic option while the Diesel will only come with
the manual gear box. Now just like the other Honda Cars, like the Amaze and the
City, fuel economy is going to be one of the important criteria’s and the
Mobilio is expected to do very well here. In fact we may as well believe the
Mobilio will be the most fuel efficient MPV around, it is fantastic fuel
economy for the diesel engine. We even expect the petrol automatic to be very
fuel efficient.
Verdict: -
On first impressions at
least the Mobilio comes across a very promising product and will turn out to be
yet another success for Honda India but the big question as always is the
Price. We expect Honda to push in the Mobilio between the Ertiga and the Innova
and we know the Mobilio to is priced slightly higher than the Ertiga but let’s
face it. The good looks, the features and the spacious and practically cabin is
USP of this car.
