In keeping with Honda’s tradition for creating stylish family cars, one multi-utility vehicle (MUV) has broken new ground and surpasses all that have come before it. Introducing the new Honda Freed, a compact MUV specifically catering to the exciting lifestyle and needs of urban families. The innovative low-floor, low centre of gravity technology adopted by the Honda Freed, create outstanding space, performance and usability. And more importantly it sets new standards in the compact class. The new Honda Freed is the vehicle just made for you to enjoy every day. Come on, it’s time to get free. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Comfort and privilege you can feel. The Honda Freed’s uniform design seamlessly fuses a sharp triangle shape with a voluminous square box, creating its unique and distinctive styling and maximizing space. a convenient 2-2-3 arrangement. While the 2740mm wheelbase and Honda’s ingenious flat floor design ensure ample legroom even with a full car. Its compact body size is one of the many reasons why the Honda Freed will become a great success in Singapore. It makes navigating in narrow streets and tight multistorey car parks a breeze. Visibility, effortless steering and a powerful 1.5L i-VTEC engine make a life of zipping around from place to place just so easy. Inside, the generous space comfortably seats seven adults with Offering a one-of-a-kind driving experience, the Honda Freed gives you the freedom no other vehicle in its class can provide. Life is a breeze with the Honda Freed. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. A bold opportunity is waiting. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Be at one with your surroundings. The interior design was inspired by the image of an open, light filled café. It needed to be more than just high quality, it needed to feel spacious and friendly – somewhere you’re always happy to be. The two-layer console puts all the controls at the driver’s fingertips. Its wrap-around design keeps everything within the driver’s eye line to make driving safer for everyone. For example - the multi information display shows instantaneous fuel economy, continuously. At the flick of a switch, it can display accumulated distance, trip distance, average fuel consumption as well as the estimated cruising range before the next petrol top up. More importantly, the operating system functions have been intelligently positioned around the driver’s seat. The audio and air conditioning controls are placed in the center of the instrument panel where they are clearly visible and can be easily operated by the driver or front passenger. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. What you want, when you want. The fully automatic* air conditioning has cleverly designed outlets to achieve cool driving comfort. Located high on the instrument panel, the air conditioning ducts ensure enhanced efficiency at the same time as well as delivering a comfortable temperature to all three rows. Comfort was a key factor in achieving our vision. That’s why the first and second rows are fitted with ‘Captain Seats.’ These large, luxurious and comfortable seats bear a slim back and rounded shoulders, firmly holding your body in the correct posture. They also allow passengers in the third row to move freely without having to adjust the row in front. The one step floor design, easy to reach door handle and adjustable door opening steps all provide easy and secured access. And with rear sliding doors at both sides opening a full width of 600mm, getting in and out of the Freed is a breeze even in narrow spaces. But the convenience doesn’t stop there. The doors can be operated with a touch sensor at the driver’s seat, or by the keyless entry remote control system. And for additional safety, they will automatically close from the ‘door-ajar’ position.^ The front doors too, despite being compact, are cleverly designed with a forwardleaning hinge and spacious headroom allowing for easy access. * Available on the Freed 1.5EX model. ^ Available on the Freed 1.5EX model with power sliding doors. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Stylish features. The Honda Freed offers the kind of space required to meet the varying needs of a family. With its larger, low-floor tailgate opening (height of 1,120mm and maximum width of 1,160mm) enhancing storage space, it’s practical for loading and unloading everything from sports equipment to furniture. The third row can also be conveniently stowed away to create even more space. Hand grip for easy access. Clever conveniences. And with its ingenious seating arrangement that provides every row with ample legroom and headroom, the whole family can sit, relax and be together without feeling on top of each other. And all the while enjoying the freedom and spaciousness the Honda Freed has to offer - like individual beverage holders and convenient storage spaces within easy reach of everyone.

Honda’s new and powerful 118ps (87kW) 1.5L i-VTEC engine power delivers powerful performance. Its ample 144nM of torque (at 4,800rpm) allows strong, smooth acceleration on both flat and hilly terrain. Coupled with a newly developed 5-speed automatic transmission, the Honda Freed is a satisfying drive both in the city and on the highways. At the same time its advanced i-VTEC design enhances its fuel economy at both high and low speeds. It gives you the kind of performance you want as well as everything you need to enjoy sporty driving. Your freedom is at hand. Because of the compact engine placement and power train, handling is as easy as can be. The turning radius is a mere 5.2m – very much like that of the compact Honda Jazz. And with an overall width and height of 1,695mm and 1,735mm respectively, it turns navigating through narrow city streets and parallel parking into simple tasks. Together with its impressive fuel economy, the Honda Freed is the complete car for the urban lifestyle. The tilt steering wheel adjusts the wheel up and down to the driver’s most natural position. Its these touches that make the Honda Freed so special. But it doesn’t stop there. The thinner A-pillar creates a panoramic view which not only helps minimise blind spots but also provides all passengers a refreshing view of what’s ahead on the road. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Effortless driving means it’s always smooth sailing. Sometimes it’s the things you don’t notice that make a car so special. The Honda Freed is packed with so many little touches that add to your driving pleasure, that what noticeable is its refined engineering. Kingpin Axis Front Increased castor angle Increased castor tail Advanced Honda technology reduces cabin noise in several ways including uniquely designed sound insulation and damping, specialised engine position and specific tuning of windows and panels - resulting in a more stable drive. And stability is a key element in the Honda Freed. That’s why it features McPherson strut front suspension, which combines flexibility, high stability and manoeuvrability in both the front and rear. And by increasing the rigidity of the suspension mounting points, the front is more nimble and responsive. Coupled with the greater control offered by Electronic Power Steering (EPS), the Honda Freed has brilliantly responsive handling. Spring placement near wheel centre Adopted longer trailing arm Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Everything is made easier for you to enjoy. Even down to the high-tensile steel that has been used in both sliding doors and tailgate, ensuring their strength and efficiency while maintaining light weight, so they open with ease. Upper Frame Absorbing upper part of impact energy Main Frame Highly efficient energy absorption Impact energy Lower Member Preventing misalignment of impactabsorbing vehicle members An impact is the last thing you’d want to happen in the Honda Freed. But in the event of a collision the front air bag system helps protect the head and neck of the driver and the front passenger. The GCON body design also forms a protective shell over all occupants. Impact energy is cleverly channelled to the floor, potentially reducing impact by effectively dispersing the energy away from the occupants. Safety design takes the Honda Freed to a new level with pedestrian safety. To mitigate the impact on pedestrians during an accident, Honda adopted an impact dispersing system that spreads the force of the car’s impact. The front hood features an impact absorbing design. Hinges and wipers are also designed to collapse and tear away to reduce injury. Shock-Absorbing Hood Hinge Structure Easily deformed hood hinges help absorb shock during collisions. Shock-Absorbing Windshield Frame Easily deformed windshield sill helps absorb shock during collisions. Shock-Absorbing Wiper Detachable wiper arm helps absorb shock during collisions. Careful and carefree. Style, performance and comfort are all important but the Honda Freed would not be complete without its comprehensive safety engineering. The Honda Freed is designed with Honda’s advanced crash safety technology, GCON. This system reduces the impact of collisions through highly efficient energy absorption areas of the car, shielding the cabin from collision force. However there are several systems in place to prevent a collision from ever occurring. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps you overcome potentially dangerous situations such as wet roads and emergency braking, which restore traction and stability. This works in conjunction with the Brake Assist (BA) to help you stop quickly, smoothly and safely. Shock-Absorbing Hood Sufficient space between the hood and the engine provides the space needed to help absorb shock during collisions. Shock-Absorbing Bumper Optimised bumper beam configuration provides the space needed to help absorb shock during collisions. Shock-Absorbing Fender Easily deformed fender attachment points help absorb shock during collisions. Actual equipment may vary from picture shown. Commitment.
