Honda WR-V facelift

[VET5 0]

Honda will launch the WR-V facelift here sometime next month. It will come with BS6-compliant petrol and diesel engine options in the form of a 1.5-litre diesel good for 110hp and a 1.2-litre petrol that delivers 90hp. Both engines are expected to continue with a 5-speed manual gearbox. 

The updated WR-V will get an all-new front bumper that gets more pronounced creases and slightly less black cladding at the bottom. However, the fog lamp surrounds do get black inserts. The grille also features multiple horizontal slats instead of the honeycomb pattern seen on the previous model and there's a new faux skid plate as well. There are no major changes expected to the car's sides or the rear.

Looks like Honda is gearing up to launch the WR-V facelift soon. Came across this walkaround of the compact SUV at a dealership.

Unlike the pre-facelift model that was available in two petrol and three diesel variants, the 2020 WR-V is expected to have just two trims for each engine option. On the outgoing WR-V, there used to be S, V and VX trims. On the updated model, there are just the SV and VX.

Here are some new images of the Honda WR-V facelift that showcase not only the exterior but also the interiors. The new WR-V will come with both a petrol and diesel engine option, both of which will be paired to a manual gearbox. Honda will offer it on only 2 trim levels -SV and VX - both of which will come pretty well kitted. The version we see in the images below is the top-spec VX variant. What are your opinions on the WR-V facelift?
