Honda BR-V vs Hyundai Creta - comparison video.


 Renuka Kripalani compares Honda BR-V CVT with hot selling Hyundai Creta automatic. The exterior styling, interiors, build quality and ride quality of both the compact SUV's is compared in this short video, to give you a basic idea where both cars stand against each other in the very popular compact SUV segment.

Since both Honda and Hyundai have a good presence in the Indian auto market and are known for their good quality cars, the comparison is limited to these two products themselves. Honda is a huge name internationally but in India Hyundai is the second biggest auto maker and leads Honda by a big margin.

As I have said in the past Hyundai Creta has commanding  SUV presence on the road, and same presence is carried forward in the pictures and videos this is featured in. Honda BR-V on the other hand looks more like a MUV than a compact SUV (Honda doesn't call it a compact SUV though),  with its seven seater configuration and its narrow and streched Mobilio like looks it does look like a peoples carrier than a premium C-SUV.

In this video Honda BR-V comes out as a better value option with its lower price and more practical choice  with its two extra seats.

As far as I am concerned I will choose Hyundai Creta anyday for its great SUV looks, premium build quality, long equipment list, and will choose Honda BR-V only if I am stricly looking for a  seven seater family car.

Honda BR-V Review Video By Renuka Kripalani


Renuka Kripalani reviews much awaited Honda BR-V, the first compact SUV by Honda, soon to be introduced in India.

On first look BR-V looks like a  Mobilio, Honda's first MPV in India which unfortunately was no taken up by the Indian car buyers. 

Built on the Brio platform BR-V is narrow + long, and looks more like a MUV than a compact SUV. Though the narrow width may not give three people enough room to sit abreast in the rear seat comfortably, the extra length gives good legroom in second row and enough space for two adult passenger in the third row.

Even though the side profile looks very similar to Mobilio, the front end of BR-V is nice and muscular with the squared out bonnet, large head lamps and a wide chrome strip runnging across the engine grill  giving it a big car SUV'ish look.

BR-V will be available in diesel and petrol engines, and will give a choice of both CVT Auto and six speed Manual transmissions

Launch Date - 5th May 2016
Price -  8 to 11 Lakh for Petrol
           9 to 12.5 Lakh for Diesel
CVT Auto box will only be available with Petrol Engine option.  
Mileage - Diesel Engine -  21.9 Kmpl
              Petro Engine - 15.4  Kmpl
              Petrol Auto   - 16     Kmpl
