Production is slated to start around April 2016 with an initial yearly production capacity of 36,000 units. The Honda BR-V, exhibited at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show in August, will be available in both petrol and diesel engines. 

 

The petrol BR-V will be fitted with the 1.5-litre i-VTEC engine while the diesel model is likley to get the same motor that does duty in the City. The seven-seater will compete with the Hyundai Creta, Renault Duster and the Ford EcoSport in the small SUV segment.
