<br />
We've talked a lot about the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/honda+vezel/">Honda Vezel</a> over the past few months, as the <em>Autoblog</em> staff is looking forward to the Fit-based CUV. It's a handsome little vehicle, that we think will do quite well when it finally <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/20/honda-vezel-turbo-hybrid-report/">arrives in the US market</a>. That said, it's not a particularly exciting vehicle to look at.<br />
<br />
Along with the appearance of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/14/honda-vezel-mugen-tokyo-auto-salon/">Mugen-tuned Vezel</a> at the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tokyo-auto-salon/">Tokyo Auto Salon</a>, though, a new concept that's being shown by <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> today at India's Delhi Auto Expo has us hopeful for a Vezel that looks a bit more assertive. It's called the Vision XS-1 Concept, and it's a seven-passenger (yes, seven) crossover that features minivan-style sliding doors. It sports Honda's "Exciting H Design," which is the same design philosophy used by the stylists that penned the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/fit/">Fit</a>. Unfortunately, at the moment, Honda has provided exactly zero details about what powers its new concept.<br />
<br />
As a concept for the Indian market, which is home to some of the tightest, most congested roads on the planet, the stylish XS-1 is meant to demonstrate that Honda knows a thing or six about building compact vehicles. In that regard, we think it's a spot-on piece of work. Let us know what you think of it in Comments, but first, have a look up top for a gallery of images and then <a href="/2014/02/05/honda-vision-xs-1-concept-delhi-auto-expo-2014/#continued">scroll down</a> for a brief video and the official press release from Honda.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/02/05/honda-vision-xs-1-concept-delhi-auto-expo-2014/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Honda Vision XS-1 Concept looks like a sportier Vezel [w/video]</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/02/05/honda-vision-xs-1-concept-delhi-auto-expo-2014/">Honda Vision XS-1 Concept looks like a sportier Vezel [w/video]</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Wed, 05 Feb 2014 12:31:00 EST.
