Honda has been experiencing tremendous sales success with the launch of the new City that is further emphasized by the option of a diesel engine. The Japanese car maker is now gearing up to manufacture it’s new Mobilio multi-purpose vehicle at its Greater Noida facility in Uttar Pradesh to take on the MPV/MUV market in the country where the likes of the Toyota Innova and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga rule the roost at the moment.
Based on the compact Honda Brio platform, the Mobilio is considerably larger than the Brio in profile and has a wheelbase of 2,650mm, which is 245mm longer than the Amaze’s and 305mm longer than the Brio’s. This combined with the large boot makes the Mobilio extremely practical, be it for carrying loads of luggage or seating seven passengers in total.
Whats more, the Honda Mobilio will come with a choice of the company’s 1.5 litre petrol and diesel engines, that will capitalize on the excise duty benefits for diesel engines smaller than 1,500cc and under 1,600 cc for petrol engines. Due to its seating capacity of seven people, the Mobilio is longer than four meters in length, as a result it will not be able to avail the excise duty benefits on small cars, much like the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and Chevrolet Enjoy. As a result, expect prices for the new Honda Mobilio to range between Rs. 5.80 lakh to Rs. 8.25 lakh (ex-showroom) when it is launched here in India.
