Honda, as part of their new strategy, has just launched the City facelift sedan in the market. Other than the City, Honda also unveiled the all-new ZR-V Hybrid SUV in the market. The prices for the ZR-V have not been announced yet. However, pre-bookings have already started. Deliveries are expected to commence by July this year and the price announcement is expected to happen before that. Now that we have details about the upcoming ZR-V Hybrid SUV, here is an image gallery of the flagship SUV from Honda.
The Honda ZR-V gets a crossover-like design, which is similar to many Honda SUVs that the brand sells internationally.
Coming to the front, we see a wide front grille with gloss black vertical slats. The headlamps are sleek LED projector units and come with integrated dual-function LED DRLs with sequential turn indicators.
The Honda logo is placed right above the grille and we also see a lower air dam with a mesh-type design. The front bumper also gets front parking sensors and a camera.
Coming to the side profile, you notice crossover-like design elements here too. The door handles are regular pull-type units finished in body colour. The design of the glass area is similar to the older-generation CR-V.
The cladding is finished in body colour and you can also see the new 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels.
As we move to the rear, you notice the wraparound clear-lens LED tail lamps. These are split units and we also see the muscular-looking rear bumper.
The rear gets a rear windscreen wiper, washer and defogger. There is ZR-V badging on the lower half of the tailgate and we also see the hybrid badge next to it.
The ZR-V comes with a faux skid plate at the rear with twin exhaust tips for a sporty look.
The cabin of the ZR-V is designed to look minimalist yet premium. It is finished in all-black, which adds to the sporty character of the SUV.
The main attraction on the dashboard is the 9-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system. The steering wheel also looks premium and comes with buttons to control the 10.2-inch driver display and the infotainment system.
The buttons for the ADAS features are also on the steering wheel.
The AC vents are positioned below the touchscreen and we also see the hazard light button there. Below the AC vents, we have the automatic climate control buttons.
The Honda ZR-V comes with leatherette upholstery, a wireless phone charger and a bridge-type centre console with a push-button-type selector, similar to the one seen on the last-generation CR-V. There is storage space below the centre console.
The ZR-V also comes with features like a 360-degree camera, lane change monitor, 12-speaker Bose premium audio system, rain-sensing wipers, power-folding exterior mirrors, hill descent control, electric parking brake with auto hold and so on.
The Indian version of the ZR-V doesn’t come with a panoramic sunroof or seat ventilation, but it gets electric seats with memory functions, an electric tailgate, 8 airbags and a long list of safety features.
The Honda ZR-V Hybrid comes with a 2.0-litre direct-injection sports hybrid engine that generates 184 PS and 315 Nm of torque. This is an advanced, high-performance engine that has been introduced in India for the first time.
This engine offers efficiency without compromising on performance. The ZR-V can do 0-100 kmph in just 7.9 seconds and it has a claimed fuel efficiency of 22.8 kmpl.
The ZR-V will be a CBU and will compete with the likes of the Skoda Kodiaq and the Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line. It is expected to be launched with a price tag of around Rs 40-50 lakh.
