First Drive: 2017 Honda BR-V 1.5 V Navi

On paper, the Honda BR-V looks like a Frankenstein product: part Mobilio, part CR-V, part Jazz. It’s not supposed to make sense, but in reality it does.

The end result is a 7-seater crossover that doesn’t really push the limits of imagination, but still manages to live up to expectations.
