Honda Mobilio 2017: 7-seat car priced from only 319 million VND

The upgraded version of the small MPV model was launched in Indonesia, with the ambition to gain market share from Innova or Ertiga.

Indonesia is the place Honda chose to introduce Mobilio 2017 first, at the same time as launching City 2017 in Thailand. The archipelago is a market that favors MPVs, so it is understandable that Mobilio is focused on.

The overall design of the Mobilio remains unchanged, but the front end now has a new look: the grille cluster with a fuller chrome border and connected to the headlights. Thanks to that, the image of the car becomes more consistent with Honda's contemporary models, similar to the City 2017 taking inspiration from the Civic or the new generation CR-V.

Inside the interior are new comfort details: separate adjustable backrests and headrests in all 3 rows of seats, electric windows, electric mirrors, 6.8-inch screen, new wheels, fog lights and an improved sound system with 6 speakers and bluetooth connectivity in the high-end RS version.

Standard safety equipment on the Mobilio 2017 includes anti-lock braking system ABS, electronic brake force distribution EBD. As for the RS sports version, the car will be equipped with additional electronic balance system VSC and hill start assist system.

Mobilio 2017 still uses a 4-cylinder, 1.5L gasoline engine, maximum capacity of 118 horsepower and maximum torque of 145 Nm like the old generation. Transmission options include 5-speed manual or CVT.

Due to the improvements, the 2017 Mobilio in Indonesia has a slight price increase compared to the previous generation. The car has a starting price of 189.5 million rupiah (319 million VND) for the lowest-end manual S version, and up to 243.5 million rupiah (410 million VND) if you choose the RS CVT version. In addition, the 2017 Mobilio also has an E version with adequate equipment, priced lower than the RS.
