Indonesia: Honda Brio RS spied

The Honda Brio has been spied in what appears to be the RS variant. Snapped in Indonesia, the car in the picture receives a healthy dose of alterations at the front. The changes are similar to what the Mobilio RS gets over the standard Mobilio.

Expected to launch in Indonesia soon, the Brio RS gets a new set of projector headlamps with day-time running LEDs, different (possibly larger = 15'') alloy wheels, a new, wider black front grille that touches both headlamps and gets a chrome accent underneath, side skirts, and a new Mobilio RS like front bumper with integrated fog lamps and a honeycomb mesh patterned air dam. The car also features black interiors like the regular Indonesia-spec Brio.

The changes are most likely only cosmetic and the car is expected to continue with the 1.2L petrol engine. A screen-grab from a government database indicates that the car will be available with a CVT automatic gearbox. It remains to be seen if something similar will be offered in India, though an update of this kind won't be enough to cause a significant spurt in the Brio's tanking sales in India.
