Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) unleashed the updated BR-V late last year. And its more mature look was accompanied by a palette of conservative colors.
Ready to see which of the five hues best suits the second-generation Honda BR-V? Join us to find out.
White does look good on the Honda BR-V. The achromatic color embodies a safe space, which is what most parents are trying to achieve while traveling with their kids on the road.
Speaking of which, the Honda BR-V is equipped with a host of safety features, which include speed-sensing door locks, a suite of airbags and seatbelts, an anti-lock brake system, electronic brake-force distribution, vehicle stability assist, hill start assist, car seat tethers, and parking sensors.
The range-topping variant of the Honda BR-V also benefits from Honda Sensing, which adds adaptive cruise control, auto high beam, lead car departure notification, a collision mitigation braking system, a lane keeping assist system, road departure mitigation, and lane departure warning.
The Premium Opal White Silver Pearl finish is offered only for higher trims of the Honda BR-V. That said, this color best represents opulence and luxury — and those are things that this subcompact crossover has plenty of.
Separating the top-of-the-line trim is a gloss black front grille, a silver skid plate, chrome door handles, and side sill trims in silver. It also gets 17-inch alloy wheels.
Likewise, its cabin offers leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a leather shift knob, and door trims in leather.
This silver shade gives the Honda BR-V a tech-savvy look. On that note, it packs decent onboard tech like a 4.2-inch full-color thin-film transistor meter and a seven-inch touchscreen audio system that can keep its passengers engaged and occupied on both short and long trips.
Other notable car-tech include six speakers, Apple CarPlay and Android Audio connectivity, as well as automatic air conditioning.
This color imbues the Honda HR-V with a look of dependability. The color even has the word “Meteoroid” in its name.
Supporting the subcompact crossover are Macpherson struts at the front and a torsion beam setup at the rear. Likewise, stopping power is delivered by ventilated disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear.
The Honda BR-V looks powerful and mysterious in this pitch-black hue. It can — by the way — back up its looks, thanks to a 1.5-liter gasoline engine mated to a continuously variable transmission.
This setup puts out as much as 119 horsepower and 145 Newton-meters of torque. That said, this much power is ideal for daily drives in the city and occasional escapades during the weekend.
And despite its decent capabilities, the Honda BR-V is a fuel-efficient ride. Per HCPI, it clocks in at 24.71 kilometers per liter on mixed driving conditions.
