SPIED: Honda's Prepping An All-New Entry-Level Compact SUV — The Nissan Juke Has Been Warned

If there's one thing I think most folks can agree on, Honda is not the go-to automaker when you think of sleek and sexy vehicles. While the S2000 and Acura NSX are pretty slick, the S2K doesn't exist anymore, the old NSX is out of production and the NEW NSX doesn't really exist in production form either.

The good news is that the company has something up its sleeve.

Though it made it's auto show debut as the Urban SUV Concept, it will come to life as the HR-V. According to the latest reports, it will make it to the North American market.

Already on sale in Japan as the Vezel and revealed in North America as the HR-V, the European version of the new compact SUV has yet to be given a name, although Honda sources confirmed to Autocar at the Vezel’s Tokyo motor show reveal last year that Vezel would not be used here...

...Whatever name Honda decides on for it, the model will line up against the likes of the Nissan Juke, Vauxhall Mokka and Ford EcoSport in a segment rapidly growing in popularity in the UK and further afield....

Hasn't poor sales performance already warned the Juke that no one is interested.

Indeed. A conventional small crossover is the way to go. The Nissan Puke is a raging disaster.

This thing is going to sell like hotcakes. Is that really 3 vents on the passenger side?

Honda totally abandons anything even remotely related to performance and you see good news in that they are going to produce yet another bland small SUV????? Really?

The only positive I see here is that I don't gag when I look at it like I do every time I see a Juke.
