Overview
The 2014 Honda Vezel is among the most popular compact crossovers in Sri Lanka, prized for its modern design, comfortable ride, and efficient powertrains. Positioned between a hatchback and a full-size SUV, it suits buyers seeking a higher driving position without the bulk of a large vehicle. Available in both petrol and hybrid versions, the Vezel appeals to daily commuters, small families, and those who frequently switch between city and highway driving. The hybrid variant, in particular, has gained popularity for its strong fuel economy and smooth performance.

Local drivers describe the 2014 Honda Vezel as smooth, refined, and stress-free to drive. The elevated seating position improves visibility, and light steering makes it easy to handle in traffic and tight spaces. Hybrid owners especially appreciate the quiet electric assist at low speeds. Drivers also note that the Vezel feels more comfortable and stable than smaller hatchbacks, yet easier to manage than larger SUVs. Calm driving habits are rewarded with good fuel economy and smooth performance.

Exterior Design
The Vezel brought a sleek, coupe-inspired crossover design that helped redefine Honda’s compact SUV lineup. Sharp headlamps, a sculpted body, and hidden rear door handles give it a sporty yet premium look. Alloy wheels and subtle chrome accents enhance its road presence, while compact dimensions keep it practical for urban use. Design-wise, it has aged well and still looks modern on Sri Lankan roads.
