Honda finally introduced its "Urban SUV Concept" today at the 2013 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.

Sporting dynamic and youthful styling, this vehicle foreshadows a new production model that's set to go on sale in Japan by the end of 2013, followed by the U.S. in 2014.

At 4.3 metres long, it's nearly 23 centimetres shorter than the Honda CR-V, making it an ideal compact SUV for navigating both crowded city streets and open mountain roads.

The concept is powered by a new Earth Dreams engine that offers interesting fuel economy, and features the brand's signature Magic Seat, which can provide multiple passenger and cargo options.

Honda did not reveal any pricing information other than saying that it will undercut the CR-V.
