FIRST LOOK: The all-new Honda BR-V

The new gen Honda BR-V has landed in South Africa. If you’re in the market for a compact, yet spacious, 7-seater family SUV then this one’s for you. 

The BR-V has been upgraded and reworked to consider all passengers’ needs. The driver gets better steering control after changes to the suspension and braking system – and better visibility with larger windows.

WATCH:

Passengers score big time with more legroom, more head space and a roomier cabin – thanks to the new body which is wider, higher and longer. 

Honda focused on a clean, sleek interior with a minimalist look without skimping on innovative features and tech upgrades. 

The host of safety features is the biggest and most welcome change to the Honda BR-V.
