Features explained in the video include tilt steering, audio system with CD, Aux and USB ports, double blower aircon, one touch tumble seat, Eco Meter, 1.5L i-VTEC engine matched to a CVT gearbox, 5.2m turning radius, electric power steering, dual SRS airbag, ABS+EBD, and an accessory pack.
The Mobilio for India will be revealed at the 2014 Auto Expo (starts on Feb 5 in Greater Noida) and the important change for the local market is the addition of a 1.5L EarthDreams diesel engine that achieves record fuel efficiency on the Amaze and new City. This engine would pair to the 5-speed manual transmission, while the 6-speed MT is also worth considering an MPV is a highway/long-distance vehicle in India. Whether Honda India will offer the CVT option for the petrol Mobilio is not confirmed.
The Indonesian Mobilio comes in three variants - S, E, and E-Prestige - with prices starting at 159,500 rupiah (8.19 lakh rupees).
