Honda at the Auto Expo 2010

GTO · 7th January 2010, 14:59

Note from Support: Our Official Honda Brio review is here: https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/offic...ve-review.html (Honda Brio : Test Drive & Review) Please continue discussion on this car in the new thread. Thanks

Along with Toyota, Honda had a pretty ordinary showcasing effort. The stall was placed bang across Toyota.

As if to take away some of Toyota's small car limelight, Honda showcased a small car concept themselves:

Notice the lack of conventionally placed door handles at the rear. Inspired by the Chevy Beat?

The stunning CRZ concept! Power comes from a 1.5 petrol Vtec + electric motor (hybrid) that's high on torque. Resemblance to the iconic Honda CRX (from the early nineties) is obvious. Some insist that the production model will be close to the concept we see here:

Nice pictures. GTO, you've covered the auto expo brilliantly

Does Honda have any plans of launching the Mugen JAZZ in India?

hrmanju1 · 7th January 2010, 15:31

^^^^^

Any 1.5 Vtec A/T Jazz in the near future?

Thanks for the pictures!

Brilliant coverage of auto expo, GTO. Excellent pictures.
It is carnival time with newer cars,everyday coverage by GTO,Dippys and Sidindia!!! what more an autoenthusiast ask for!!
Honda CRZ concept looks stunning. Between 1.5 ltr Ivtech and 1.8 lts ivtech, the engines look totally differnt, can anyone throw some light?
Thanks a lot for virtually taking through auto expo!!!

krazydriver84 · 7th January 2010, 15:49

the jazz sport and Jazz Trends had some really nice skirting done. I like the back skirts of the Jazz sport and the front skirts of the jazz trends.

anonymous · 7th January 2010, 15:54

CRZ Concept looks amazing and so is the small concept car. Thanks for bringing them GTO.

Jaizcrzy · 7th January 2010, 16:01

CRZ Concept looks fabulous. As said above, if the production unit is similar the concept looks it going to be another bit hit fot Honda's.

recshenoy · 7th January 2010, 16:34

if at all Honda introduces 1.5 iVTEC A/T Jazz, what is going to be the price? 10L+?
i see hardly any market for that in india!

Honda Civic hatch has this sort of door handle placement, so as it turns out its Chevy who copied from Honda.

The CRZ looks awesome,the Jazz with the body kit looks mean but the choice of colour spoils the look.

basilmabraham · 7th January 2010, 20:37

Thanks again for the great pics GTO. Did the Jazz look impressive, it looks tad over done in pics, me thinks.

ImmortalZ · 8th January 2010, 13:53

The CR-Z production car is going to look exactly like that. Hell, sid posted the brochure pics, so you can check it out yourself!

You can give feedback on what you think of new small car concept by honda at this link.

Honda - Auto Expo 2010

Its a flash page and once you enter the page then you have to click on "Honda New Small Car Concept" and after that on "Feedback" button.

Only limited number of questions are asked and I think members of team-bhp can certainly contribute to the decision making at Honda !
