Along with a photo showing rows upon rows of the BR-V (hope you like it either in Tafetta White or Premium Opal White Silver), HCPI also revealed some of the key features of their much-awaited SUV.

Aside from its stronger, more aggressive styling that commands an even better road presence, the BR-V promises MPV-like value with better leg- and headroom across all three rows of seats. Moreover, it comes with a One-Touch Tumble second row seats and a Dive Down Mechanism for its third row seats.

Functionality aside, the BR-V arrives with available leather seats (V and VX variants) or high-grade fabric (S). Also in a model first, the 2023 BR-V comes with a seat height adjuster across all variants to accommodate a wide range of driver body types. Furthermore, it boasts of technology such as a 7-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as Remote Engine Start.

The BR-V is powered by a 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine with a maximum output of 121 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque. Its new CVT gearbox also delivers better fuel efficiency and acceleration response.

Meanwhile, the top-of-the-line VX variant comes with Honda SENSING. The advanced safety suite reduces the risks of accidents by bundling technology such as:

• Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMBS)
• Auto-High Beam (AHB)
• Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
• Lead Car Departure Notification System (LCDN)
• Road Departure Mitigation System with Lane Departure Warning (RDM with LDW)
• Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow (LSF)

This is on top of standard features such as speed-sensing door locks, dual and side airbags, reverse camera with guidelines, ABS with EBD, and vehicle stability assist. The VX variant further adds side curtain airbags and even a LaneWatch blind spot camera. Walk Away Auto Lock is available for the V and VX, while the Remote Engine Start is available for the S CVT, V, and VX variants.
