Honda mounting 7-seater MPV for India; codenamed '2NH'

Honda Siel Cars India is allegedly, working on a new seven-seater MPV for India, which is codenamed as '2NH' that will confront the likes of Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, Mahindra Xylo and the Toyota Innova.

  The new MPV will be urbanized on the same lines as the current Malaysian-spec MPV called Honda Freed, which in turn is based on the same stage as the next generation Honda Jazz with three rows of seating for 7 adults. The Malaysian-spec Freed with be Indianised, contained and in the process is bound to ditch some of its features before it lands on the Indian shores.

The Honda 2NH MPV for India will come with a broad range of engine options for both petrol and diesel variants, with more stress on the diesel version owing to the higher demand of diesel motorized vehicles in the Indian market and also the much awaited Honda's Earth Dreams series of diesel engines is probable to debut in the coming months.

 The current Honda Freed MPV packs in high quality of interiors, much like the Honda Jazz and is different for its small engine section and large cabin space for passengers and baggage. It will certainly be attractive to see, how the Japanese automaker re-shapes the Freed into the India-spec 2NH and also the price tag it will bring along to struggle with one of the lowest priced MPV, the Ertiga in India.

 The Honda 2NH MPV is expected to arrive in the Indian marketplace by 2014.
