Honda had released only a teaser of the new Honda StepWGN, but Livedoor Blog
has now leaked the exterior.
The 2018 Honda StepWGN gets a whole new front-end,
which makes the MPV look bigger and bolder. The facelift appears to bear
full-LED headlamps with C-shaped LED signature lights and LED fog lights for
efficiency. The LED fog lights have honeycomb grille above them and are
underlined by chrome trim. The mid-cycle refresh brings new design alloy wheels
too.
The Honda StepWGN is 4,690 mm/4,735 mm long, 1,695
mm wide and 1,840 mm/1,855 mm tall. Under the hood, there’s the L15B 1.5-litre
VTEC TURBO petrol engine that produces 110 kW (150 PS) and 203 Nm of torque.
With the facelift, Honda will introduce the SPORT HYBRID i-MMD dual-motor
hybrid powertrain option in the StepWGN. The new model will have enhanced
safety and driver assistance features with the upgraded Honda SENSING suite.
The 2018 Honda StepWGN is officially confirmed to
hit the Japanese market in September 2017.
