Honda Mobilio V Updates

Wednesday, 05 July 2017 03:15 PM Honda has officially stopped selling the Honda Mobilio in India due to poor demand. The company has removed the model from its official website, indicating a clear end to its sales in the Indian market. This decision follows a significant decline in sales over the past few years.

Thursday, 02 March 2017 07:49 PM The Honda Mobilio faced stiff competition from other MPVs like the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and the Toyota Innova, which led to its declining sales. The Ertigas updated design and competitive pricing further exacerbated the Mobilios struggles in the market. I think the Mobilios failure to adapt quickly to market changes was a major factor in its demise.

Tuesday, 28 February 2017 05:23 PM Despite its initial success, the Honda Mobilios sales began to sag, with only 441 units sold in January and 226 units in February of the same year. This poor sales performance hinted at the vehicles potential discontinuation. The rise of other MPVs and the Mobilios higher pricing compared to competitors contributed to its declining popularity.

Thursday, 12 January 2017 06:55 PM Honda introduced a facelift for the Mobilio in Indonesia, which included some cosmetic changes, but this update did not make its way to the Indian market. The facelift was aimed at reviving interest in the model but did not have a significant impact on its sales in India. I believe that bringing this facelift to India might have helped, but it was too little, too late.

Thursday, 04 February 2016 12:19 AM Hondas decision to launch the BR-V, which is based on the Mobilio platform, further hinted at the Mobilios potential discontinuation. The BR-V was seen as a more modern and market-suited alternative, with its SUV-like design and better ground clearance. This move suggested that Honda was shifting focus away from the Mobilio.

Thursday, 15 January 2015 05:32 AM The Mobilios market position was also threatened by the launch of the Datsun Go+, a subcompact MPV that offered three rows of seats at a lower price point. Although the Go+ compromised on passenger space, its affordability made it an attractive option for many buyers. This added to the Mobilios struggles in maintaining its market share.

Friday, 02 January 2015 07:42 PM Honda had considered updating the Mobilio with new features and designs, but these plans never materialized in the Indian market. The lack of significant updates made the Mobilio seem outdated compared to its competitors, which continuously received updates and new features. I believe regular updates could have kept the Mobilio relevant.

Wednesday, 10 September 2014 08:53 PM The Honda Mobilio was initially a success when launched in India in July 2014, topping the sales charts and competing closely with the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. However, its sales began to decline over time due to various factors, including pricing and competition. The Mobilios spacious interior and powerful diesel engine were not enough to sustain its market position.

Wednesday, 23 July 2014 04:50 PM When launched, the Honda Mobilio was praised for its spacious cabin, comfortable ride, and good handling. It was built on an extended version of the Brio platform and followed Hondas Man maximum, machine minimum philosophy. However, over time, it failed to keep up with the evolving market demands and technological advancements. I think its initial success was overshadowed by its inability to adapt.

Wednesday, 23 July 2014 10:08 AM The Mobilios pricing was a significant factor in its declining sales. It was priced higher than its direct competitor, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, which made it less attractive to budget-conscious buyers. Despite offering a good amount of space and a strong diesel engine, the premium pricing did not work in its favor.
