Breezy Ecocar

If you understand the Brio's concept, it could be another choice over the March _ if only its prices could have been more attractive

Last week, Honda announced that it had to temporarily stop taking orders for the all-new Brio because of parts supply problems from Japan caused by the unfortunate incidents that have been making headlines recently.

Some critics will be quick to point out that this gives potential customers of Thailand's second Ecocar a good chance to sit back and think whether it's worth going for one, particularly when contemplating a Nissan March instead.

Ever since the Brio was launched in mid-March, the car has been widely criticised for lacking showroom appeal. For instance, the Brio is generally smaller than the March yet costs as much in price, ranging from 400,000-500,000 baht.
