We've previously seen a sketch of Honda's upcoming Brio-based budget MPV set to be unveiled at this year's Indonesian International Motor Show, but today we can show you leaked low res photos and Indonesian market variants for the car revealed by Indonesian site Autonet Magz.
The MPV is rumoured to be called the Honda Mobilio, a name that was previously used for a JDM compact Honda MPV with sliding doors before it was eventually replaced by the Honda Freed. Unlike the more upmarket Honda Freed which uses sliding doors, the Brio-based Honda MPV use conventional doors. The dip in the rear door window line that appeared on the sketches goes to production.
These leaked slides show the availability of a manual gearbox for the basic S and E models as well as a CVT for the top of the range E model, instead of a 5-speed automatic. This is quite interesting because the Indonesian spec Brio uses a 5-speed auto instead of a CVT.
No engine size is mentioned in these slides, but it would make sense for it to be equipped with the same 1.3 litre engine as the Brio, keeping the larger 1.5 litre for the Freed.
