The BR-V then comes standard with a 1.5-liter gasoline engine that’s good for 119 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque. As indicated by the variant names, both a manual gearbox or a continuously variable transmission (CVT) are available. Power is then sent to its front wheels.  

This new seven-seater model from Honda also recently received a 5-star rating from the New Car Assessment Program for Southeast Asia (ASEAN NCAP). This is mainly thanks to its Honda Sensing driver-assist tech which includes a collision mitigation brake system, lane-keep assist, road departure mitigation, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control.
