Exterior Looks were one of the immediate attractions, that drove me towards a Brio. Some may have reservations over the looks from the rear; for me thats the stand out feature and love it.
Front looks great as well; my blue Brio seems to be smiling and winking all the while 😄 ...and the bold silver "H" embedded on the grill reminds that he is sturdy too!!
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It was a surprise given the impression that I first had reg space and comfort. Sufficient leg room for the rear passengers.
The drivers seat is a bit crampy while entering in models with no steering wheel adjustment.(Would look for some comments from other users, on this ~ Thanks)
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Needless to say a petrol engine from Honda always rocks!! Just done under 1000km, and got a max of 14.1 kmpl. The gear box at nos 1 & 2 was not as smooth as 3,4 an 5 ; but got that right at the first service. Acceleration seems to be low at top gears, having to shift constantly to lower gears, for instance if you were to overtake(Not sure if thats a problem though, would look for some comments from other users on this ~Thanks)
Ride Quality & Handling Superb, feather touch steer. You ll simply fall for it.
Final Words Great car, Great VFM, Great Brand, its a genuine trend setter in terms of quality and looks in the hatch segment.
Areas of improvement Except for the two stated above, none. As far as my usage goes, I dont care about the boot space, but is deep enough and just sufficient.
Looks, excellent smooth drive, surprisingly spacious and comfortable interiorsPick up seems to be low at top speeds, had issues with the gear box at gears 1 and 2
