    Auto Expo 2010: Honda' s New Small Car Concept

Honda unveiled its upcoming small car concept in the on-going Auto Expo 2010 in New Delhi, called the 'New Small' for now. The car features a truly radical design that stands out from the current pack of small cars.

The front has a pair of striking pulled back headlamps with LED being the source of illumination, giving it a very futuristic look. The grille has a prominent arrow shaped which extends over to the engine bonnet and the large Honda logo taking centre stage. Below you can see the gaping air inlet split horizontally by a thin bar which ends in cool looking fog lamps.


 




On the sides one can see the fairly prominent wheel arches and a sharp cut crease along the waistline which extends from the front bumper, all the way to the rear door window. The new Honda car as the interesting two-door effect like the one on the Chevrolet Beat, with the door handles being cleverly concealed. The mirrors are by far the most interesting looking objects on the entire car but it remains to be seen how something so small will be of any practical value on our roads. The rear side carries the futuristic look of the car but doesn't look nearly as good.


 




The 'New Small' is believed to come with a 1.0L version of Honda's VTEC engine and might also get the 1.2L version from the Jazz. You can expect good fuel efficiency as well as decent performance from both the engines, along with the usual Honda refinement. The pricing is not revealed but it should be prices on par with the Hyundai i10 and the Maruti Ritz. The 'New Small' is slated for launch in 2011 in India and Thailand.

Early 2011as per Honda. However industry sources are contemplating an early launch by end 2010, to meet the competition from Toyota's small car.

Everything looks good but the tail looks like it has been chopped of something try changing the tail design because for sure most of the people will not like it especially in India because they are not into that look but overall it looks good.
