The 2020 Honda WR-V facelift will be launched in India on July 2. Initially expected to go on sale in India in April, Honda had already begun accepting bookings for the new WR-V facelift. However, due to the coronavirus pandemic and the resultant lockdown, the company had to postpone the launch to July. The updated subcompact crossover will come with several cosmetic changes, and a host of new exterior and interior features, along with BS6 compliant petrol and diesel engines. But, we know all that. What we don't know is the price, and here's what we expect with regards to the pricing on the 2020 Honda WR-V facelift.

The 2020 Honda WR-V is likely to be priced in the range of Rs. 7.99 lakh to Rs. 10.50 lakh (
Now the pre-facelift Honda WR-V was priced in India in the range of Rs. 8.15 lakh to Rs. 10.35 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Also, currently, the WR-V doesn't have a direct rival in India, and it largely competes with subcompact SUVs like the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, and Mahindra XUV300. And most of them undercut the WR-V. So, given the current market situation with the coronavirus, Honda will certainly aim to make a stronger impact with the updated WR-V, by pricing it aggressively. So, the 2020 Honda WR-V is likely to be priced in the range of Rs. 7.99 lakh to Rs. 10.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
