Upcoming Cars – Honda ZR-V

Honda is preparing to introduce the ZR-V as a premium SUV positioned above its current lineup. Unlike its usual mass-market approach, this model is expected to be brought in as a full import. The ZR-V is based on a global platform and measures around 4.5 metres in length. It is expected to be powered by a 2.0-litre strong hybrid system producing about 182 bhp and 315 Nm, paired with an e-CVT gearbox. On the feature side, the SUV is expected to include a 9-inch touchscreen, a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, ADAS features, powered seats, and a panoramic glass roof. In terms of pricing, we can expect the on-road price in Mumbai to range between ₹40 lakh and ₹50 lakh. As the vehicle is CBU, the prices may even go higher. 

Rivals: Hyundai Tucson, Volkswagen Tiguan, Jeep Compass

The ZR-V is aimed at buyers seeking a hybrid SUV focused on refinement and efficiency rather than outright performance.

The vehicle is expected to feature a modern cabin layout with multiple screens, connected-car technology, and a spacious interior. The exterior design draws from the original Sierra, but with updated lighting elements and proportions. Pricing is expected to place it above the Nexon EV and the upcoming Curvv EV, with an on-road price of around ₹18 lakh to ₹30 lakh in Mumbai.
