The second-generation Honda BR-V has been designed to provide value that meets the mobility needs of Filipinos. Aside from its strong SUV styling, superior comfort, advanced safety, and a generous amount of standard features, the 7-seater SUV also excels in terms of fuel efficiency.
The all-new model was put to the test as Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) recently conducted a fuel economy run in partnership with the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP).
The all-new BR-V topped the test with an impressive 24.70 kilometers per liter for the 1.5 V CVT variant, followed by the top-of-the-line 1.5 VX CVT Honda SENSING registering 23.48 kilometers per liter, while the 1.5 S CVT achieved 22.61 kilometers per liter.
HCPI, together with AAP, drove the new 7-seater a total distance of 128 kilometers with the following parameters:
• No usage of cruise control
• Driving with an average speed of 70 to 80 km/h
• Low cool in thermostat setting, No. 1 for the blower setting
All variants of the second-generation Honda BR-V are powered by the improved 1.5L DOHC i-VTEC engine, mated to a new Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), resulting in better power delivery and improved fuel efficiency. This pairing manages to deliver a smooth and refined performance while achieving an excellent fuel mileage.
“The second-generation BR-V aims to strengthen Honda’s model lineup to the next level. This all-new 7-seater ticks the right boxes in a family vehicle, it’s got the tough character of an SUV, advanced technology and safety features, power, and efficiency to deliver great satisfaction for both the driver and its passengers,” said Masahiko Nakamura, HCPI President.
