This 2020 Honda BR-V facelift is already late in its arrival in Malaysia as Honda Thailand and Honda Philippines have already launched it months ago. This 2020 Honda BR-V gets a revised fascia with black bar across the nose to replace the previous chrome bar, while there is still a thin chrome strip linking the headlamps.
The projector headlamps are now accompanied by new LED daytime running lights (DRLs). The front bumper also gets design tweaks with new fog lamp surrounds and a redesigned & expanded silver skid plate.
There are very small changes at the rear of this BR-V. You will notice a revised looking silver diffuser section and bumper side borders that now gets vertical reflectors. The reflectors were previously mounted at the lowest part of the bumper, plus there are new 16-inch two-tone alloy wheels that give it a better stance.
On the inside of this BR-V it still offers 3-row seating for 7 persons. This 2020 BR-V dashboard design and steering wheel remains, but there are new tweeter speakers and new dashboard trim. The top spec BR-V gets black leather-trimmed seats with red inserts matched with red leather pads on the door armrests, leather wrapping for the steering as well as gear knob, with red stitching.
The second-row seat is a 60:40 split folding with one-motion tumble type that can be moved forward and backward for easy access for third-row passengers, plus a three-level reclining backrest. The third-row seat offers generous legroom and is a 50:50 split one-motion fold-and-tumble type to provide maximum rear storage space. The rear air conditioner ensures good air flow to all areas of the cabin.
