Honda Malaysia Sdn Bhd has unveiled its facelifted Stream RSZ, which flaunts vigorous yet practical exterior refinements, as well as some aesthetic finishing in the interior. Built for families and styled for singles, the sporty multipurpose vehicle (MPV) has gone through a meticulous refinement.
Stream RSZ is well known for its performance and drivability, versatility as well as dynamic exterior design. Since its official launch in November 2007, Honda Malaysia has sold more than 2,000 units of the 2nd Generation Stream, of which 352 units were Stream RSZ. The Honda Stream RSZ has since expounded the subliminal meaning of MPV ownership.
Powered by a 1.8 i-VTEC engine with Drive-by-Wire (DBW) and a 5-speed automatic transmission (5AT), the new Stream RSZ guarantees a powerful and smooth driving performance, which gives responsive acceleration and low fuel consumption.
Speaking at the launch, Mr. Toru Takahashi, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Honda Malaysia remarked that: “Contrary to public perception, the 7-seater is not only made for families who desire the extra space and practicality. The sporty curves, the superb driving performance are meant to define singles, whose outward sporty character is their second nature.”
“Stylised with a string of bold and dynamic designs on the body, the refined 7-seater now presents a fresh façade that is sporty, bold, and energetic,” he added.
Now fitted with Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), the new Stream RSZ offers better stability, thus improving the overall safety of the car. With the enhanced safety feature, drivers are able to drive more confidently in any weather condition.
On the exterior, the new Stream RSZ presents a new honey comb front grille (with chrome floating garnish), a newly designed bumper and side skirts, thus unveiling a bolder and more dynamic appearance.
Now fitted with a new rear bumper, a diffuser and a tailgate spoiler, the overall aerodynamics of the car has been improved. With the new 17-inch alloy wheels design, the sporty look is now more edgy and energetic than before.
The taillight design with black garnish is added to improve driver’s visibility for tailing motorist. The side mirror with a integrated turn light and new fog lamps design have been added to improve the car’s illumination, especially during night driving.
Inside, the refinements incorporated include a leather gear knob, leather steering wheel that now features audio control, as well as sporty alloy pedals. The leather gear knob and steering wheel come with red stitching.
The strokes of red added across the entire instrument panel, cup holders, and upholstery in the interior, give a distinctive sportier feel.
The new Stream RSZ comes with 4 trendy shades: Premium White Pearl, Crystal Black Pearl, Polished Metal Metallic and New Passion Red Pearl.
Priced at RM158,980 OTR, the new Stream RSZ is here to give both families and singles a more characteristic drive.
