European CR-V Prototype
Honda will also present the European CR-V
Prototype, a preview model highlighting the exterior styling direction
of the all-new fourth generation European Honda CR-V, which is set to go
on sale in Autumn 2012. Compared to the previous generation, the model
takes on a more aggressive stance with deeper sculpting of the body
lines and a bolder front fascia. The lower front bumper wraps smartly
upward to convey SUV capability, while the lower front bumper design now
integrates more smoothly into the fascia for improved aerodynamics.
Earth Dreams Technology - new 1.6 litre
diesel engine
Honda's Earth Dreams Technology, a new
generation engine series, will deliver excellent performance and
environmental values and is due to be introduced throughout the Honda
product range. The new 1.6 litre diesel engine will be the first engine
from this series for Europe. The lightest engine in its class,
delivering sub 100g/km CO2 levels, the engine will offer a class-leading
balance of fuel economy and performance. A cut engine display of the new
1.6 litre diesel engine will be shown on the Honda stand.
New Jazz Models for Europe
Two new Jazz derivatives will also be
displayed for the first time. The Jazz Si, on sale from Summer 2012,
features an upgraded sporty suspension package and styling changes to
the interior and the exterior. The Jazz 1.2, now with Idle Stop,
delivers a reduction in CO2 emissions of 3g/km compared to the standard
1.2 model.
