The name WR-V puts the soft-roader in line with other members of Honda’s crossover lineup, and the company explains it stands for Winsome Runabout Vehicle. The concept is closely related to the surprisingly practical Fit city car, and it’s about a size smaller than the HR-V. Visually, it stands out with a tall front end characterized by chiseled headlights underlined by a wide grille. A fake brushed aluminum trim on the front bumper and black plastic cladding over the wheel arches add a rugged touch to the overall look.

Technical specifications are unavailable, but the Fit roots shed insight into what we can expect under the hood. In Brazil, Honda’s smallest model exclusively ships with a 1.5-liter VTEC four-cylinder engine that generates 116 horsepower and 110 pound-feet of torque. It’s capable of burning either gasoline or ethanol, a common fuel in Brazil.
