The front view represents strength and stable motion by a line connecting the headlights and front grill. Rear view highlights are the distinctive design of the floating rear pillar and a body panel cutting that suggests the floating wings of a jet plane. The rear fender’s character line runs from the rear to the side body, conveying a tough and strong stance. The rear spoiler is united with the body to add a dynamic appearance. Every design detail is consistent to accent the all-new Honda Mobilio’s ultimate presence as a premium sport passenger car.
Interior Design
The all-new Honda Mobilio’s interior embraces a “prime comfort” theme consistent with its class-leading sensational and comfortable cabin. Maintaining the Honda design philosophy of “Man Maximum, Machine Minimum”, the sense of quality is reflected in every element of the interior design to provide the ultimate in comfort and luxury. The roomy cabin is like sitting in a private jet plane, reflected in the color scheme, silky-touch seat fabric, convenient storage and the largest possible space for the greatest passenger satisfaction. In addition to focusing on the second row, Honda put considerable effort into providing a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere in the limited space available for third-row passengers.
Cabin Room
By eliminating everything that takes up space and has no purpose, Honda has given the interior of the all-new Honda Mobilio considerable openness. The lower portion of the instrument panel has been reduced to create extra legroom for front seat occupants. The backs of the front-row and second-row seats are slightly concave to offer additional knee room in the second row and third row. The raised roof lining provides generous headroom for second-row and third-row passengers while creating enough space to include a rear air-conditioner panel.
The new all-new Honda Mobilio provides one class-above versatility with 2-row (available with the S variant) and 3-row (available with the V and RS variants) seat configurations, with details as follows:
The sporty and comfortable front seats feature thick bottom cushions for a quality feel. Although slimmed down, the seat backs are based on an optimized wire support structure design that helps the front seats hold occupants firmly and comfortably in place. The headrests are integrated into the seat backs with gentle curves that present a sporty appearance.For the S variant, special effort has gone into creating class-leading legroom, knee clearance and foot clearance for the all-new Honda Mobilio’s second row of seats. The seat is a 60:40 split fold-and-tumble type with a 100 mm slide function that is even comfortable for middle-seat passengers. Third-row seats available in the V and RS variants have generous leg room. The seats are positioned within the wheelbase. The seat is a 50:50 spilt folding type. Once folded flat, it can be quickly and conveniently tumbled forward to maximize cargo space.
In addition, the interior of all variants of the all-new Honda Mobilio offers luxury and modernity with blue self-illuminated meters; an Eco indicator; power outlet; 11 cup holders; interior light; and a day/night rearview mirror.
Powerful and high-performance powertrain

It is available with either a manual transmission or a new continuously variable transmission (CVT) built upon Honda's Earth Dreams Technology that delivers the best acceleration for all driving conditions along with enhanced fuel economy.
