Honda WR-V SUV Priced From RM89,900 To RM107,900
This puts the WR-V right in the heart of the Perodua Ativa and Proton X50
Honda Malaysia has just set social media buzzing with the launch of their All-New Winsome Runabout Vehicle (WR-V) in four variants, taking the lead in the Small SUV trend in Malaysia.
With more than 2,500 bookings in hand even before launch, they are ready to see the same sales success as with the previous generation HR-V that sold more than 130,000 units in 7 years.
With the arrival of the All-New WR-V, Honda Malaysia becomes the first Japanese mass market manufacturer to introduce a new model in the Non-National Small SUV segment which means they are right in the middle of the Perodua Ativa which is priced between RM61k and RM72k and not forgetting the Proton X50 which has a price tag from RM79k to RM103k.
So, this puts the WR-V buyer right in the middle of a very tempting offer from Honda Malaysia. If the buyers budget is low, then its either the Ativa or the ‘S’ Spec WR-V.
If the buyers CTOS score is good and budget permits, then its either the X50 Flagship or the WR-V RS which is fully loaded with Honda technology.
The RS variant will be treated to a Mesh-Style Grille with silver chrome, silver painted Lower Garnish and 17” Dual-Tone Alloy Wheels for a stylish feel. It demands attention with its impressive ground clearance of 207mm, surpassing even cars from a higher class.
Other exterior features that further enhance the appearance of the All-New WR-V are its Trunk Spoiler, Shark Fin Antenna, Auto LED Headlights and LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL), LED Front Fog Lights as well as Front LED Sequential Turn Signals.
As part of the Honda family, the All-New WR-V is equipped with innovative and functional features for customers’ utmost convenience. Among these features are Power Retractable Door Mirror, Smart Entry with Push Start Button, Remote Engine Start *1 and Walk Away Auto Lock.
This Honda crossover offers a clutter-free interior that optimises cabin space while maintaining its vibrant and modern aesthetics.
This design language enables drivers and passengers to enjoy optimal comfort in a compact car, further enhanced by Auto Air Conditioning and Leather Seats.
The All-New WR-V also comes with a 7-inch Display Audio with Apple CarPlayTM and Android AutoTM Connectivity, 6 Speakers, 4.2-inch TFT Meter Cluster and Paddle Shift.
On top of that, the All-New WR-V exemplifies practicality and spaciousness, delivering a hassle-free experience for customers as they run their day-to-day errands with its capacious 380-litre capacity trunk and a 60:40 Split Rear Seat configuration that allows flexibility for bulkier items.
Under the hood of the All-New WR-V is a 1.5L DOHC i-VTEC engine which pushes out a maximum power output of 121PS and 145Nm of torque.
Integrated with Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) with G-design shift technology, the All-New WR-V provides the joy of excellent fuel economy and exceptional driving performance.
