Honda Vezel by Mugen revealed via brochure scan
With minor changes
A brochure scan has revealed Mugen plans to apply its know-how on the recently introduced Honda Vezel which is essentially a production version of the Urban SUV concept.
It was only last month at Tokyo Motor Show when Honda introduced the Vezel and now it seems Mugen has prepared to spice up the model. The standard version will go on sale on December 20 while the Mugen package will probably be available shortly after when it will bring a lowered ride height.
We also notice the grey accents on the chin spoiler, front radiator slat, roof spoiler, alloys, rear apron, exhaust pipes and side skirts. The model featured in the brochure is the 4WD version equipped with a direct-injection 1.5-liter gasoline engine which can also be had in a hybrid setup with a high-output motor and a SPORT HYBRID i-DCD (Intelligent Dual Clutch Drive).
According to Japanese media there is a three-month waiting list for the Vezel, a model which is being described by Honda as offering the elegance of a coupe, the functionality of a minivan and the qualities of an SUV.

the front is ugly, but the side and rear looks good. i think if one paints the pieces body color (at least the front and sides, top portion of the rear bumper piece) it might look better.

Sport suspension and titanium exhaust available
Following a brochure scan which surfaced the web earlier this week, Mugen has released its list of goodies for the recently unveiled 2014 Honda Vezel.
Honda's new crossover offering has already received the Mugen treatment which brings a full body kit making the car look more aggressive than in standard guise. There are new front and rear spoilers, side skirts, air intakes and no less than seven wheel designs to choose from in sizes of up to 18 inches.
Mugen is also offering a wide array of accessories such as a carbon fiber cover for the rear view mirror, high-pressure radiator cap, high-performance brake fluid and a carbon-like gear lever. The Honda Vezel can also be fitted with a titanium exhaust system and high-performance brake pads.
The Honda Vezel together with the Mugen package is now available on pre-order in Japan.

Euro-spec model to rival Juke, 2008 and Captur
Honda has announced the Vezel compact crossover will enter the U.S. market in 2014, followed by a European launch in 2015.
The Honda Vezel represents a production version of the Urban SUV concept and was showcased to the public for the first time in November at Tokyo Motor Show. The JDM variant is already on sale and now we have learned from Honda the U.S.-spec model is scheduled to come out in the second half of 2014.
The Jazz/Fit-based crossover will also reach the European market in 2015 when it will have to face competition coming from the Nissan Juke, Renault Captur and Peugeot 2008. Details about what will power the U.S.- and Euro-spec versions of the Vezel have not been announced, but Honda did say the hybrid version – which has a 1.5-liter gasoline engine, 22 kW electric motor and 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox - will not leave Japanese territory.
Honda Vezel's chief engineer, Yoshiharu Itai, said the car will likely retain its moniker since it's a global strategic vehicle but according to Honda officials it will receive several tweaks (most likely cosmetic) to better suit local markets.
