Its very sad that there is no CVT version in brio.
Zess, I guess they would launch it in the future.
Thnks @fas…I was waiting for the lunch of Brio from the month of december-2010.Earlier many of the Auto magazine claim that brio will be available in CVT version also.My 10 month wait has gone in vain.But i will wait till coming december…..lets see…If u have get any information plz…share us.M relied on motorbeam team.
Zess, Honda should launch a CVT variant though as they already have the technology, just need to put the CVT in the Brio, but when is the real question. However when we get any information on the launch, we will definitely share it with you :-)
But the pricing looks great!! Doesn’t it???
Finally Honda have learnt a lesson!!
Ab to gayi Maruthi SUSUKI ki bhains pani mein..lolzzzz..superb pricing for a superb car. I have driven a Jazz and this engine is a gem.
now there will be a big dent in sale of petrol models of Swift, i-10, Ritz and Beat. What do you think Fas?
Yes Ninu, you are right. More so with the launch of the Hyundai Eon, Maruti Suzuki cars won’t find it easy to sell. Already the petrol cars sell very less so if Honda launched a diesel, then there would be a real fight.
Honda should atleast get the 1.3MJ engine from Fiat for Jazz. The 3-cyl version of the same (as used by GM’s Beat) can be used for Brio!
Prasadh no for MJD Engie to Honda Jazz.
n y do u think so kedar?
cos honda doesn’t have any diesel engines.
Great car. Apart from the insane rear looks I have no grunt with this car. The switches on the steering wheel are good welcome. If diesel also comes it will be a good car. Also i10 with diesel and the new Eon are coming. Maruti now God can only save your big downfall. Hyundai and Honda are after you.
@Fas:
