Sales of the new crossover-styled Honda WR-V will start in the spring of 2017 in South America and India price from 16500 dollars.
I wonder what's behind the letters WR-V of the new car from Japanese company the name full of meaning is hidden - Winsome Runabout Vehicle (literally translated as charming or attractive compact car for walking).
Is it capable new SUV time will tell to charm motorists in South America and India, but the appearance of the novelty may be attractive, but not charming at all. Rather, the subcompact crossover from Honda looks solid and one might even say harsh, especially from the front. The frowning gaze is formed by compact headlights, a charismatic false radiator grille and a massive bumper with powerful plastic protection like a real SUV.
Plastic body kit- the crossover attribute, by the way, is present on the edges of the wheel arches, sills, lower edges of the side doors and on rear bumper.
In general, even without a plastic protective suit that protects the lower parts of the body, the novelty looks decent from any angle. The body of a crossover, there is no better and more correct to say a raised hatchback (front-wheel drive is standard, will there be a version with a full AWD drive not yet clear), are decorated with sharp edges, broken lines and athletic stampings, stylish headlamps and original lamp shades.
- External dimensions Honda body The 2017-2018 WR-V is 3995mm long, 1750mm wide, 1570mm high, with a 2600mm wheelbase and 170mm ground clearance.
The Japanese manufacturer is not yet in a hurry to reveal the interior design of its new product, but ... with almost 100% probability it can be assumed that the interior of the five-door hatchback stylized as a crossover will be an exact copy of the Honda Jazz / Fit platform donor's interior.
So buyers have the right to count on high-quality finishing materials, comfortable first-row seats with pronounced lateral support, cozy rear seats augmented super Honda system Magic Seats with a mass of transformation options, a modern front panel architecture and a center console turned towards the driver, an excellent set of advanced equipment.
Potential owners of the new Honda WR-V will appreciate the sporty multifunctional steering wheel, a highly informative instrument panel with a large speedometer and a couple of smaller radii (tachometer and on-board computer), excellent equipment organization on the center console in two versions. The first implies the presence of a multimedia system with a 5-inch color LCD display and an air conditioner control unit. But the second one is just super, with a stylish and modern multimedia system Honda Connect (7-inch touch screen with USB and Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and HDMI, navigation and rear view camera), as well as a touch panel that controls the air conditioning system.
Of the security systems, it is worth noting not only the presence of 8 airbags, but also a lot electronic systems, assistants and assistants: City-Brake Active and Advanced Driver Assist , Intelligent Speed Assist and High-beam Support System, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Traffic Sign Recognition. Most of them are available, however, only as paid options and are not installed as standard.

So, Honda CR-V 2013 model year. This is the fourth generation popular crossover. Honda's main competitor is Toyota with its RAV4 crossover. But the cars are completely different and therefore their buyers will mostly be different. Let's say the RAV4 has a 2-wheel drive option, and the CR-V has only all-wheel drive.

Summing up everything written, we can say that the new crossover Honda car not bad. However, this car is not for everyone, especially when there are cheaper options. Of course, if you want to overpay for unique technologies Honda, then this crossover is for you. In general, everything Honda cars stand apart, they have their own constant fans. In our country, this brand cannot be called mass.
Remember long and squat Honda SUV crosstour? This five-door based on the Accord was produced from 2009 to 2015 and sold in many countries, including Russia. But the car did not gain much success and was retired without much fuss. However, in China, Crosstour still had a follower - and not one, but two at once! Last spring, a coupe-shaped crossover debuted, and now its twin is presented under the UR-V index.
Both cars will be sold in parallel, but the Avancier will be released on joint venture GAC-Honda in Guangzhou, while another JV, Dongfeng Honda from Wuhan, will produce the UR-V. In China, this is a common practice: different enterprises produce almost identical cars under different names. Honda already has several of these Chinese twins: Vezel and XR-V SUVs, Odyssey and Elysion minivans, City and Greiz small sedans. And now Avancier and UR-V.
At the same time, externally, the crossovers are noticeably different. Honda UR-V has not only other bumpers and lighting equipment: almost all external body panels have been changed, with the exception of the roof, and the wheel arches have become less prominent. This practically did not affect the dimensions - however, the length increased by 9 mm, up to 4825 mm.
Salons, on the contrary, are almost the same: only the instrument graphics differ. On the second row - royal space, and expensive versions there is a three-zone climate control and an audio control panel in the rear armrest. In addition, the options include a roof with a panoramic view, LED headlights, cameras all-round view and much more.
Technically, the Honda UR-V is no different from the donor. The crossover will enter the market with a two-liter turbo engine from a “hot” hatchback Civic Type R, derated to 272 hp, and a nine-speed "automatic" with a push-button control panel. Drive - front or full. Later will appear basic version with a 1.5 turbo four (193 hp) of the new Earth Dreams family, which will be paired with a CVT.
Sales of the UR-V model will begin in mid-March, and in terms of price, it should not differ much from the twin, which in China costs from 39 to 48 thousand dollars.
