Honda Cars PH to reveal all-new BR-V on its 32nd anniversary
The wait is almost over. After we reported that dealerships in the country are already accepting reservations for the all-new BR-V, Honda Cars Philippines Inc (HCPI) announced that they will be launching the latest 7-seater next month.
According to the automaker, the next-generation BR-V will be revealed on November 21, 2022, via the brand’s official Facebook page in celebration of the brand’s 32nd anniversary. More importantly, HCPI announced that there will be a total of four variants available in the country. These are 1.5 S M/T, 1.5 S CVT, 1.5 V CVT, and 1.5 VX CVT.
While official specifications are not yet available, HCPI did say that all variants are powered by a 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine. Based on what Indonesia gets, the PH-spec BR-V will likely put out 121 PS and 145 Nm of torque. And as mentioned earlier, it will be available with either a CVT or a manual transmission. In addition, the automaker mentioned the new BR-V now gets improved ground clearance and newly-designed 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 215/55/R17 tires on higher-grade variants.
Speaking of high-grade variants, HCPI added that both the VX and V variants of the new BR-V will get leather seats. Meanwhile, the S CVT and S M/T models will come with high-grade fabric seats. And as a first for the BR-V, all variants will now feature a manual height adjuster for the driver’s seat for added convenience. Last but not least, the new BR-V will be more spacious, more comfortable, and have better legroom and headroom thanks to the increase in size.

When it comes to colors, all variants of the new BR-V will be available with Lunar Silver Metallic and Meteoroid Gray Metallic. Available only in the S CVT and S M/T is Tafetta White. Those that want Crystal Black Pearl can get it in the V CVT and S CVT models.
Serving as the latest color in the BR-V is Premium Opal White Silver which is exclusive only to the VX CVT and V CVT and is an extra PHP 20,000 option. For customers that prefer their BR-V painted in Platinum White Pearl, that’s also an additional PHP 20,000 on top of the SRP.
With all 37 authorized Honda Cars dealerships nationwide now accepting reservations, those that are looking to get one before its launch next month can now do so.
