Already launch?

What is the price?

Not launch yet. Est price from various sources points to RM85k to RM96k. Btw, I'm helping to set up the official forum side so future information will be pool here instead of vanishing in Kopitiam.

i guess need really test drive before purchasing.
have an eye on this car actually..

lets see

Indeed. I won't know whether the power or the feel will to your liking.

I'm certainly am getting it even without the test drive. I'm guessing power wise and feel-wise will be something like a grand livina or a Rush.

85k onwards seems pricey. Hope they will lower the prices.

I do hope so but so far from other sources people online here, the marketing people at the road show and the sales assistant at Honda, seem strongly the price is going to be in this region.

Hmm, let's see how next year.

I think for that price, I would explore other options. Not to discourage anyone as I'm also eagerly waiting for the launch date.

Would you know the estimate timeframe of launch?
*
Did some research on others in the same category and "more or less" price range, so far I think this is the best that fits my criteria. Won't mind sharing your other options here so we can exchange notes.

I don't know the exact launch date but the marketing ppl and sales assistant only indicated in January 2017. They didn't mentioned whether early, middle or late. I do hope I get the car in time b4 CNY.

Good if brv launched in Jan. I'd like to see the safety spec that Honda provides. Usually, it's all good.

I'm looking at mpv or suv. Some criterias are comfort, safety, reliability (ease of maintenance) and pricing. They may vary on the scale say, if price is low then probably the vehicle has less safety features. I can still wait though.

I've been checking out new launches such as sienta, ertiga and now, Brv. Also looked at existing models.
*
So far I'm quite satisfied with Honda's past safety features and rating and happy to hear VSC is standard for the high spec model. Would be nice if they throw in extra airbags like the curtain type.

I'm also in the market for a MPV that has better usable space for the category it's in. Previously was eyeing a HR-V due to it's unique crossover feature that is in the trend these days. Preferences for the car changes when I had babies therefore a MPV is needed. I liked the Serena due to ample space and it's features but kinda turn off by the price. I heard of BR-V a couple of years back, so I decided to be patient and waited for it.

Great. Let us know if you find more info. I'm going to scout around today since I'm free today.
Same as a relative of mine for these choice models. I'm just tagging along.

For my own buy, I'll probably delay a bit. Unless I see something I really like.
*
So far, no indication of the amount of booking fee and my SA already keyed in my name for the booking prior to the announcement.

Following...  Was deciding between Ertiga, ALZA and BR-V
*
I would agree with ^ware^wolf while deciding the car above.

BR-V definitely wins pants down due to what it offers in it's price range.

The Ertiga goes head to head with the Alza in terms of prices and specs. On the side note not relating to this forum, Alza offers more of infotainment and leathers while Ertiga offers better space and features for cars in this timeline.
