After the grand debut of next-gen Brio customer in India and other markets are waiting to get hands on new hatch. Brio was one of the best launches in the Asian market. Brio will definitely increase the price by 30,000 to 40,000 if it brings Brio 2019 to India.

The new Brio will look similar to stylish Honda Small RS concept shown earlier at the Indonesia International Motor show 2018. The side profile and body shell is similar to the old model. At the motor show, Honda has showcased two variant, the standard model and sportier, Brio RS.

In conclusion, next-gen Honda Brio can encourage customers to buy a new hatch. But it is hard for Honda to create sale due to tough competition in this segment. This time it is much better looking with premium interiors.
