Distinctive form

The unique styling reflects the agility and dynamic 
nature of this fresh and energetic sedan. The 
eye-catching distinctive wedged waistline 
is carried through to the short, high deck of 
the car, while the flow continues seamlessly 
into the boot extension. The Brio takes a 
bold and confident stance in the spotlight.

Maximised space 

and convenience

Honda’s design approach, ‘Man Maximum, 
Machine Minimum’, is evident with this design. 
The vision of optimised space within a compact 
car comes to life with the Brio. One look at the 
impressive space that the boot provides, with 
a capacity of 405 litres, and you’ll see that you 
can load almost anything with ease. This is made 
possible by the car’s innovative three-box shape, 
the cleverly designed wide boot lid being top-
hinged including the ability to open all the way 
down to the bumper.

Experience the agility and versatility of Honda’s 
variable i-VTEC system. This ingenious design 
adjusts the valve timing according to the 
driving conditions resulting in a drive that 
offers you optimal performance and effi ciency. 
At the heart of the Brio performance is a 
compact, four-cylinder engine which delivers 
an exciting 65 kW at 6000 rpm, linked to a 
torque peak of 109 Nm at 4500 rpm. Honda 
engineers have included a choice of a fi ve-
speed automatic gearbox as an enticing option.

The Brio comes standard with a 2 year / 
30000 km service plan.

Safety

Safety features

The Brio comes with a range of enhanced 
safety features. Honda’s G-Force Control body 
engineering technologies (Advanced G-Con) 
recognise the need to dissipate crash forces 
away from a vehicle’s occupants in the case of a 
collision. Crumple zones are engineered into the 
critical body components, while also regulating 
the way collision forces react with the interior 
components of a vehicle. G-Con also allows the 
accurate location of safety-critical components 
such as seatbelt mounting points. 

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and EBD 
(Electronic Brake Distribution) offer optimal 
braking force on all wheels for enhanced        
vehicle control

Driver and passenger airbags and 
integrated head restraints

Pretensioner seatbelts with load limiters 
tighten to keep the body fi rmly in place in
a collision

ACE (Advanced Compatibility Engineering) 
prevents cabin deformation in head-on 
collisions by dispersing the collision forces 
away from the passenger safety cell. This 
is achieved by employing a front-mounted 
polygonal main frame with energy-
absorbing capabilities
