Honda Debuts Open Air Concept Beauty At SEMA

Honda Debuts Open Air Concept Beauty At SEMA

The Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) roadshow in Las Vegas this year brought us a good mix of the brilliant and the downright strange. After checking out the offerings, we and our partners at Fix Auto Ontario of Ontario, CA have our list of favorites, and near the top is the Honda Rugged Open Air Vehicle concept. It's a healthy dose of awesome with a touch of the impractical in the best way. 

It's a mashup of some of Honda's most popular models. It has elements from the Ridgeline and Pioneer with the comfortable yet practical seats from the Civic Type R. What you end up with is what Honda calls "the ultimate open-air Honda adventure vehicle." Its a four wheel drive dream that handles amazingly and is made for all terrains, including sand and rock. It's also highly durable, with waterproofing on the seats and reinforcements to the instrument panel.

While it may not be the most practical concept, it looks like a lot of fun to drive. For an outdoor enthusiast, it's got just about everything you could ask for. While it remains a concept for now, hopefully some day we'll see it at the dealership!
