Slow-witted optional auto
Clever packaging - perhaps inspired by the Fiat Multipla - has given Honda a six-seat people carrier that can also carry luggage for all its occupants. The FR-V seats three abreast in two rows, like the Multipla, but the middle rear seat also slides back to ensure sufficient leg room. It means six people plus luggage can be transported in a vehcile taking up no more road space than a typical family hatchback. The FR-V has the same up-market feel as the Honda Accord, and a choice of petrol or diesel engines.
