Jakarta –
PT Honda Prospect Motor (HPM) seems to be preparing a new product. What is the real form of the RS Concept SUV?
The new code for the Honda car appears on the Motor Vehicle Sales Value page of the DKI Jakarta Samsat. It says “DG47” for manual transmission and “DG48” for automatic transmission. The code is also accompanied by the number 1.5 indicating that a 1500 cc engine will be embedded.
The DG code was also previously installed on the body of the new generation Honda BR-V. That is Honda’s answer to compete in the Low SUV market.
Once again, Honda is preparing ammunition to excite the SUV market. After HR-V, is the new product a small SUV? As is known, this segment has been enlivened by the Daihatsu Rocky and Toyota Raize brands.
Some time ago, Business Innovation and Sales & Marketing Director of PT Honda Prospect Motor (HPM), Yusak Billy said the RS Concept SUV is a form of car for a small SUV model.
“It could be a different car, it could make car A, car B, car C. If you ask what it is, it’s a small SUV Compact,” said Billy.
In the new code, the types are divided into five variants, namely 1.5 EM/T, 1.5 E CVT, 1.5 RS M/T, 1.5 RS CVT, and 1.5 RS CVT Z. Are these types heading into mass production of the ZR-V?
On the other hand, the NJKB of this car is cheaper than the Honda BR-V. Here’s the list;
– DG47 1.5 E MT Rp 163.000.000
– DG47 1.5 RS MT Rp 180.000.000
– DG48 1.5 E CVT Rp 171.000.000
– DG48 1.5 RS CVT Rp 188.000.000
– DG48 1.5 RS CVT Z Rp 189.000.000
For the record, the price information does not include the transfer of title tax, Sales Tax on Luxury Goods, and so on. However, as a comparison, the list above is still cheaper than the NJKB BR-V, which starts at Rp. 194 million.
If you look at the trends or habits that have been carried out by Honda so far, the RS Concept SUV will almost certainly be produced as a mass car. For example, the Small RS Concept which became the All New Brio or the N7X Concept which was later released as the All New BR-V.
Currently the RS Concept SUV is also conducting a roadshow in Indonesia. After previously visiting and exhibiting in various cities on the island of Java such as in the city of Surabaya (East Java), Bandung (West Java) and the city of Semarang (Central Java), the Honda SUV RS concept car also visited the eastern part of Indonesia for the first time by appearing as the main display at the Honda Exhibition held by Honda Outside Java at the Main Atrium of Trans Studio Mall Makassar.
