Honda actually has a twice-a-year PMS plan which basically asks their clients to come in and have their vehicles every 6 months, or for every 10,000 kilometers. This is actually a pretty sweet deal as it will translate to less time in the dealership waiting for your vehicle to be checked, but more time on the road. This scheme brings with it peace of mind as you'll be running under the supervision and careful eyes of Honda mechanics and service supervisors.

This also saves you money, as Honda estimates that in the first five years of your car, you would only pay about PHP 78,005.00. While this seems like a hefty price, remember that this is for five years' worth of peace of mind. And comparing the amount to the cost you'll incur for a four-times-a-year PMS, Honda estimates you'll actually save about PHP 154,000.00!

Now, this scheme would of course depend on the vehicle you'd buy, as each vehicle has different needs and prices for parts, oil capacity, et cetera. The BR-V, is, of course, included in this ballpark estimate from Honda. The nifty small SUV has two variants, the S and the V, and the base model 1.5 S CVT starts from PHP1,058,000.00.

Be sure to consult your agent if you want specific maintenance figures from Honda. Get different opinions from BR-V owners to compare, as sometimes it all depends on who you talk to. At least, for now, you already have an idea of how much you'll probably spend for your BR-V's PMS in the next few years. If you ask me, this is a pretty sweet deal.
