New 2017 Honda WR-V : Detailed Image Gallery, Features List and Technical Specifications

The new Honda WR-V or ‘Winsome Runabout Vehicle’ launch is just around the corner and our Goa boy Karan is driving one in the picturesque city of Goa to bring you a detailed review. While he drives the crossover enjoying the local cuisine, we have some detailed images of the WR-V with us that’d give you a brief idea about the vehicle. As you’d have already read in our previous reports, the upcoming crossover will be based on Honda’s premium hatchback, the Jazz and has already started making its way to select dealerships.

So how does the crossover look? Up-front, the Honda WR-V receives a BR-V inspired grille and front bumper, as well as a re-sculpted bonnet. The headlamps, which feature LED DRLs, are separated by a honeycomb grille with a thick, single slat chrome bar running across it. Also on offer would be circular fog-lamps and a faux skid plate.

From the sides, you can see the diamond cut alloy wheels, thick body cladding running across the length of the vehicle, chrome door handles and roof rails. At the rear, the WR-V would come equipped with a dull silver faux skid plate, redesigned tail lamps and a chrome appliqué for the number plate recess.

Meet the new Honda WR-V in detail:
