Rumour: Honda Brio production stopped

The production of the Honda Brio hatchback has reportedly been stopped. While, the second generation Brio has been launched in the international market, reports suggest that Honda currently has no plans to launch it in India.

According to data provided by the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), Brio production had slowed down in the last couple of months. In August, Honda produced 120 units, while in September only 102 units rolled off the factory. Sales have also been on the decline as the carmaker sold 183, 157 and 64 units in the months of July, August and September respectively.

The Honda Brio made its debut in 2011. In India, the hatchback is offered with a 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine that makes 87 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 109 Nm of torque @ 4,500 rpm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual and 5-speed automatic.
