Highlights

    Honda previewed the Urban SUV Concept in January this year and now have unveiled the planned production version inspired by this concept - the Vezel. Honda has not let on about the details of this car and we will only know more on December 19.
     
    The Vezel is smaller than the CR-V and the company says that it fuses the "dynamic qualities of an SUV, the elegance of a coupe and the functionality of a minivan".
     
    The design of this car promises SUV-like stability in its lower body and coupe-like styling in its upper body. The interior design on the other hand, makes way for personal space for the front seats and minivan-like elbowroom, comfort and functionality for the rear seats.
     
    The Vezel will go on sale in Japan on the 20th of December and will come in both hybrid and petrol versions. The hybrid model will be equipped with the Sport Hybrid i-DCD 1.5-litre direct injection engine with a 'high-output' electric motor. So, expect the 108bhp and 134Nm torque churning Atkinson-cycle petrol engine combined with the electric motor.
     
    The petrol model will also be equipped with a 1.5-litre direct injection engine sans any motors ofcourse.
     
    We do expect it to come to India sooner rather than later but for that Honda will have to up the ante when it comes to localisation of components.
