Rendering – Honda New Small Concept (Code : 2CV)

The Japanese magazine’s representation is light years away from the concept shown in January

Thanks to Autoten, we’re able to show you a possible look of the Honda New Small Concept scheduled that could come out next year.

Codenamed 2CV, the compact car will sit under the Honda Jazz and take over the mantle of the entry-level model in many countries. While initial reports suggested the car would not be sold in Europe, the Japanese magazine reports the company’s Indian plant will manufacture cars for exports.

The magazine has also published details on the dimensions of the product – approximately 3700*1680*1550 (L*W*H) in dimension. The base petrol engine would be a 3-cylinder 1.0-liter engine for the European market. The 1.2-liter engine is for the Thai market. We assume the 1.2-liter engine will be offered on the Indian version.

The magazine reports the small car will hit the Indian market first by Q1 of 2011.

Honda_Maza_2CV-mainHonda’s small car might not even be close to this, but a brief inspection of the competition led us to this image

Our photoshop master SRK was handed the task of compiling a drawing of Honda’s upcoming small car meant for the Indian market. Codenamed 2CV, our sources tell us the the upcoming small car might use a 1.1-liter petrol engine, with no diesel in the equation. We were also informed that the engine could share commonalities with the 1.2-liter unit on Jazz. The use of Honda’s cutting-edge VTEC technology was not confirmed.

Honda has not spoken about the car’s specification, so the above is purely speculation.

The Honda 2CV will be is engineered to outrun the Swift and Ritz from the Suzuki stable, which command a high market share in its segment.

SRK designed the Honda 2CV after going through some of its competitors which includes Suzuki Swift, Hyundai i10, Fiat Punto, Tata Indica and Suzuki Ritz/Splash.
