Honda Cars India Ltd.(HCIL) will launch the 2013 fourth geneartion Honda CR-V on the 12th of this month. This generation of the soft-roader will come with 'Made in India' tag unlike its predecessor which were imported into the the country from Japan as a Complete Built Unit. With this refreshment to the vehicle, company expects some boost in the sales figures as they currently sells only 40-50 units a month of it.
Talking about the engine specifications, Honda India is still not offering any Diesel engine option to the CR-V & it only comes with two petrol mill offerings i.e 2.0 ltrs. & 2.4 ltrs. Both the engines will be available with Manual as well as Automatic Transmission.
# 2.0 Ltr. FWD engine which produces 156 ps @ 6500 rpm of max. power & 190 nm @ 4300 rpm of max. torque ; ARAI tested efficiency - 13.7 kmpl.
# 2.4 Ltr. AWD(4x4) engine which produces 190 ps @ 7000 rpm of max. power & 226 @ 4400 rpm of max. torque ; ARAI tested efficiency - 12 kmpl.
The new CR-V features ECON mode, it is an intellegent system which automatically tunes the engine, transmission & air-condition in such a way that SUV delivers optimum fuel efficiency.
Inside it sports a six speakers 6.1 inch touch screen infotainment system with connectivity of USB-iPod.
It has various other add-on features such as Cruise Control, Sunroof, Steering adjustment, 17 inches standard alloys & safety features includes Rear view camera, ABS with EBD, six SRS-Air Bags, Parking brakes, Hill assist & many more to follow.
2013 CR-V also offers two accessory packages- Inspire & Elegance for the enhancement in exterior looks. The Inspire Style package will add a dash of chrome on the visor, garnish on the sidestep & exhaust pipe & tail gate spoiler. The Elegance Style package will come a Tweaked Front Grill & chrome treated fog lamps & side steps.
Although this car will be assembled in the Noida plant of HCIL but we realy do not expect the price to be significantly lower than the on-going model as the new CR-V has so much to offer.

# Honda CR-V 2.0 AT - INR 20.85 Lakhs

ReplyDeleteGood SUV especially that you offer Manual Transmission (M/T). Don't shift all your vehicles to A/T just like Range Rover and Mercedes.
ReplyDeleteI hate Automatic Transmission vehicles so badly!!!!
