In India We have a diesel offering, the 1.5 idtec which produces 100bhp and 200Nm torque and the petrol here produces more power (119Bhp). The top end variant gets all bells and whistles here, ABS EBD ESP Airbags, Accord like steering with buttons and touchscreen infotainment too

Pretty fair review - pity it has no cruise control, traction control, or reverse sensors. Engine is noisy when labouring only, but performance is surprisingly adequate to cope with open road cruising and acceleration. Six comfortable and easy accessible seats makes for a wonderful city vehicle for the wife. Paired with Honda reliability, this is a good offering to a limited market.
