Which other car in the price bracket allows you to seat all of them in relative comfort?
The BR-V is for those who value the additional car seats...in exchange for which there are a few corners cut. If the drive was like civic AND it had 7 seats, then the price would have been 3.3 million.
My family loves crossovers. We love travelling with cousins and kids in one car. We like the immense luggage space for longer travels when it’s just the 4 of us. We absolutely cherish the extra blower vents in the back. We like the Honda badge.
We know it’s a locally assembled car, you can tell that in every locally assembled Car. We know it’s not a CR-V, and definitely neither a full SUV or a Sedan.
We know the ride is a little on the stiffer side, we don’t care enough because we get much much more in return.
It is the ideal Family Car in that price bracket. Simply put, there is not much to compare with in its class of cars. Avanza, Vezel, Juke, CH-R.....none of them you can get straight from the Company brand new and with warranty and with 7 seats and in 2.3 million.
I haven’t driven the FAW....but seriosuly I’m intrigued at even a potential comparison? The FAW never stood a chance with a MANUAL only option and ripped off design. CVT is a superior option and even a regular auto tranny might’ve made Sirius a serious contender.
