Honda Malaysia recently presented the Honda CR-V
Mugen Concept again at the 2019 Malaysia Autoshow, after it was first unveiled
at the 2018 Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show (KLIMS).
Unlike last year’s show car that came with the
CR-V’s default, shuriken-style wheels, the one currently on display gets a set
of 19-inch aluminium MDR wheels from Mugen to give it a more complete look that
bears more resemblance to what was readied for the 2019 Tokyo Auto Salon.
Other returning items include a lower bumper
extension and Mugen badge on the upper part of the grille, lower body coloured
extensions along the sides, while the rear features a Mugen badge. The CR-V
concept also retains the Passion Red Pearl finish that was first seen on the
facelifted HR-V RS.
Mechanically, the concept is powered by a 1.5 litre
Turbo VTEC engine with 193 PS at and 243 Nm of torque, which is mated to an
Earth Dreams CVT.
