Model History

2023-

Current Generation

The redesigned-for-2023 HR-V has been upgraded to the latest Civic platform. It's a larger and more pleasant vehicle than the outgoing model, but the improvements to the ride quality and sound insulation still don't go far enough. Handling is ordinary but ultimately secure. It's a practical and user-friendly small SUV, although its 158-hp, 2.0-liter engine and continuously variable transmission make the HR-V feel underpowered. The controls and infotainment system are very easy to use. The base LX and mid-level Sport get a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while the top EX-L gets a 9-inch screen and wireless device charging. The HR-V comes standard with FCW, AEB with pedestrian and cyclist detection, LDW, and LKA. While both BSW and RCTW are standard on the Sport and EX-L, neither are available on the base LX--a disappointment. Lane centering assistance, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams are standard across all trims.

2016-2022

2016 Redesign Year

Based on the Fit subcompact, the HR-V gets a versatile, cargo-friendly rear seat that flips up or folds down flat and low. Considerably smaller and less expensive than the CR-V, the HR-V is also louder and the ride is stiffer. Handling is responsive and secure. Power comes from a 141-hp four-cylinder driving either the front or all four wheels. But the HR-V feels underpowered, an impression created by the CVT transmission amplifying engine noise during acceleration. The Honda's trump card is its excellent 29 mpg overall, very flexible interior, and generous rear seat and cargo room. Available premium features include heated leather seats, a sunroof, and keyless entry, and a rear-view camera is standard. We prefer the LX trim over the EX for its simpler audio controls. The manual transmission is no longer offered on the 2020 model.
