It's been a year since Honda rolled out the new
Freed in Japan, and now it's following up with a sporty Modulo X version. The
Freed, for those unfamiliar, is a JDM minivan based on the same platform as the
Fit/Jazz, to say nothing of the Shuttle wagon and HR-V crossover.
Similar to the transformation applied to the N-Box,
N-One, and STEP WGN, the Freed Modulo X features an upgraded suspension, new
wheels, and aerodynamic enhancements to give imbue the miniest of minivans with
a sportier look and feel.
The front grille and bumpers are new, incorporating
a diffuser style at the back, along with new side skirts and tailgate spoiler.
It also has LED fog lights, 15-inch alloys, and an interior done up with
piano-black trim, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a 9-inch infotainment
display.
Japanese buyers will be able to select between six and seven-seat versions, with either a conventional or hybrid 1.5-liter i-VTEC
engine.
