FactWhen the facelifted Freed landed in Japan in October 2011, it sold over 20,000 units in two weeks — and 63% of buyers chose the hybrid, a huge share for the time.
The first-generation Freed was produced from May 2008 to September 2016, built in Sayama, Saitama, and in Karawang, Indonesia. It is related to the second-generation Fit/Jazz and the fifth-generation City/Ballade. Its 1.5-litre engine produces 118 hp (88 kW) and 148 N⋅m (109 lbf⋅ft), the same engine as the Jazz/City but with more torque. In Japan it was available as a petrol in G or G Aero grade and as a hybrid using i-VTEC with Honda's IMA system; the facelifted Freed launched in Japan on 28 October 2011 and took over 20,000 orders in its first two weeks, 63% of them hybrids. In 2010 Honda released the Japan-only Freed Spike, a "compact multi-wagon", as its twin. It launched in Indonesia on 29 June 2009, where it was discontinued in June 2016.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
This Presage minivan shares its underlying platform with the Teana sedan and the North American Murano crossover — one architecture doing three very different jobs.
Subaru's family-hauling Exiga got an unlikely STi treatment in 2009 — front spoiler, sport muffler, tighter suspension and a leather Momo wheel — but only 300 were ever built.
YRV stands for Young Recreational Vehicle, a mini MPV built to out-handle its own segment rivals.
The Terraza was Buick's first-ever minivan for the North American market - a badge-engineered cousin of the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Saturn Relay.
The restyled 1994 Lumina Minivan quietly made American automotive history: it was the first minivan sold in the US with a power sliding door you could open by remote.
The first-generation Lumina APV minivan was nicknamed the "Dustbuster" by the press for its sharply sloped windshield, which pushed the dashboard far forward of the driver.
Its steeply sloped windshield gave the Lumina APV one of the deepest dashboards ever fitted to a mass-produced car.
The first Presage wasn't really its own car underneath — most of its parts came straight from the Nissan R'nessa, with more shared with its platform twin, the Bassara.
