Honda had recently teased a sketch of the Jazz based compact
crossover called the Urban SUV Concept that is set to take center stage
at Honda’s stall in the Detroit Auto Show next week.
Meanwhile, Hondayoungtimer.de’s forum member who goes by the name
‘Hondafreak1981′ has come up with this nice rendering of the mini SUV
based on the teaser sketch. The yet to be named SUV’s front fascia is
expected to take a leaf or two from the design book of the new CR-V.
The profile of the rendering obeys the teaser sketch implicitly and
bring us closer to the real car. The upward swooping crease that starts
at the front door and culminates at the edge of the rear window is
easily the high point of the design.
The compact crossover could be powered by the 1.6 litre i-DTEC
Earthdreams diesel engine and the 1.8 litre i-VTEC petrol engine. The
power will be sent to the front wheels but an AWD version of the car is
also expected.
The Honda Urban SUV Concept is “a global concept model” which means
that the production version could eventually reach Indian shores as
well.
With people across the globe going bonkers about the mini SUVs, the
Urban SUV is just what doctor has prescribed for Honda. It is needless
to say that the car will have to fight it out with Renault Duster, Ford
EcoSport, Chevrolet Trax, Peugeot 2008 and countless other upcoming
crossovers.
Our little crystal ball shows a massive battle waiting to unfold!
