  1. Though Honda says it will offer good space inside, in my opinion, This will have space that is similar to beat or micra. A very small boot space. The reason for my gues.. is in none of the sites, there’s any info on the boot space in litres.
    Pictures can be tweaked to look how ever required.

    • @DRG,
      Your point is valid. Unless Honda declares the boot volume voluntarily journalists can not write about the same. But we are sure that Auto journalists will definitely give you a clear picture about boot space once they review Honda Brio.

      Another important aspect is boot space in liters. It is a figure which gives total amount of liquid which can be stored in the boot space. It will include all nooks and corners of the boot space which may not be useful for practical use.

      Does a picture can really influence a purchase decision? we doubt…

      Please come back and check Wheelosphere for more update on Brio.
