The center console is all new, so is the triple analogue instrument console with blue illumination.

Its an irony for us that Honda Atlas in a span of nearly 2 decades never bothered to offer anything in this segment of the market. Cars like the Brio with its features on offer & the prices mentioned above have the potential to sweep the low budget car market in Pakistan. Instead of launching the expensive options like the HR-V which cost 3.0 million plus, Honda should work on to introduce the likes of Brio/ Jazz placed under their City sedan and capture the low budget market in Pakistan which is long dominated by obsolete, over priced & feature ripped cars.
