GIIAS 2015: Honda CR-V Special Edition Fender Audio

GIIAS Honda CR-V Fender Edition 3

You saw the Honda HR-V Special Edition JBL Audio yesterday; here’s the other Honda SUV aimed at music fans launched at GIIAS 2015 – the Honda CR-V Special Edition Fender Audio. It’s much like the HR-V JBL, but the audio system here is by the brand famous for the Strat and Tele.

Based on the top spec Honda CR-V 2.4L Prestige, the Fender edition adds on a six-channel amplifier and eight-speaker system that includes four tweeters to the seven-inch touch screen navi head unit. PT Honda Prospect Motor claims that the 248 watt Fender system delivers more characterful sound, a “surround sound” sensation plus deeper bass.

Sound system aside, the Fender CR-V gets a new front grille and Fender emblems on the tailgate, centre console and tweeters. As it’s based on the highest spec CR-V here, the Fender comes with a sunroof, powered tailgate and nanoe air purification among other things.

The Honda CR-V Special Edition Fender Audio is priced at Rp.487.5 juta (RM146,168) in Indonesia. There has be demand for better and/or branded audio in Indonesia for Honda to offer this and the JBL HR-V. Are there enough discerning Malaysians (who are willing to pay more) for such special editions back home?

    This current CRV model is probably the best ever of all CRV’s since the mid 90’s
