2019 Honda HR-V LX (Base Model) Review and Test Drive | Herb Chambers Honda | Honda Laura 

Just bought a 2019 LX AWD for my mother and she doesn't know it :) It will be delivered on Thursday and I can't wait to see her smile. She has been driving a 2010 Cube but it is at almost 200k miles and although zero issues with the car she deserves a newer one. Love your parents as one day they will be gone .

Only channel with the base model is impressive....thank you!

I came for Laura but stayed for the HRV

Thanks for doing a review of the base model. You might be the only channel on Y/T that does that. Honda Laura rocks!

Thank you for making my day Honda Laura, you rock!

This SUV helped me move an ENTIRE apartment.. piece-by-piece!

I have a 2018 HRV LX 2wd and I love it. I agree that it is well equiped, especially for a base model. The one thing that it is missing is Honda Sensing which should be put on all models in order to make the car safer. Safety should not only be for those who buy higher models.

Great to see a base model reviewed for once!

I have 2018 HRV EX and absolutely love it!

Love you Honda Laura, thank you for such a great review

Nice review. This is a good reliable vehicle with all wheel drive, and that’s a good entry-level price for an all wheel drive vehicle. At $22,000 the HR-V is almost an AWD civic, and 22K would be an awesome price for an AWD Civic.

Like always Honda Laura, your videos are awesome and so upbeat! I just purchased a used 2018 Honda HRV EX, what a great vehicle and living in Pennsylvania the AWD helps big time! I’m so glad to be back in a Honda! Keep up the great work! Thanks! 👍🏻

Great review :) Thanks for reviewing an LX model, that's the trim level we will be looking at. I don't particularly care for moon-roofs and the road potholes where I live will ruin low profile tires in a heartbeat. Currently have a Civic and a Fit, love Hondas because they never-ever give us any trouble and they get good mileage.

Love Laura’s personality and energy she’s so lively and charismatic

Excellent video. I’m still debating whether to get Honda. Thank you for your videos!

Pleasant and informative presentation. Good communication. :)

have an HRV and I am so loving it! Great review! Preach!

It’s a good day when Honda Laura makes a video 😊

Thank you Laura! Your video sold me on the HR-V! I just picked up at 2021 EX AWD here in Maryland! 😊

I love this channel.

Yehey.... another very good performance discussing a Honda vehicle,Laura!!You are always excellent doing your job!

what a treat, two HL videos in one day!

My 2018 HRV LX, AWD, averages 31.5 mpg mixed driving. A little better than the numbers she mentioned. Totally happy with my HRV, great vehicles for sure, plus I actually like the CVT.

Thanks for reviewing the HRV base model. I'm a senior citizen now and base HRV LX - AWD seems to fit my limited budget. I purchased a Fit with magic seats in 2007, gotta have. I noticed (but you didn't mention - a CD player above the 5 inch screen) I want a CD player because as a senior - I have many CDs I still enjoy.

great review thank you just bought one today!

Love ya videos Laura. I was in the middle deciding whether to get the civic or HR-V. This video has has made my decision a lot easier. Thanks

Fun review, enjoyed your personable flair!

Bought a 2022 today. Stoked

The 2021 HR-V LX infotainment system doesn't have Android Auto/Apple Carplay (or ours doesn't, at least. It's just the basic radio, CD, USB, Bluetooth, etc. system shown in this video...it isn't touch-screen either, and no satellite radio). So if that's important to you, make sure the car has it. Music sound quality is "pretty good" with the bass and treble turned to the max, but not super great. Sound quality is pretty bad on default bass/treble settings. Also, the USB port is 1.0 Amp and can't even charge our smartphones (I think we need 1.5 Amp for phone charging), so I'm not sure what we could use it for. To plug in a USB stick to listen to music I guess. The Bluetooth works well for music streaming, though. If you're kinda low-tech and prefer an easy-to-use radio, CD player, USB and "good enough" sound, the 2021 LX should be fine.

I like your review will like and also subscribe your personality and that objective view is really great 👍🏾 #heavy #jamaican

That Honda is built like a tank. Good stuff and a great review. 👍

This car is cool. Might use it only on sundays!

Awd is worth it and so is Honda Laura great vid beautiful

Just bought one today I LOVE IT

Great 📹 🎥 video

Updating from a base model 2008 Civic to a 2019 EX HR-V in about a month....super duper excited!!

We still own our 2016 HR-V LX and it still fabulous with no problems. Basically nothing really new for 2019 but just a few refresh. like the new headlight with LED daytime running light and LED tail light and a revised center cup holder and front fascia, grill bumper etc.. I'll keep my current HR-V.

Not a bad review.....and Honda Laura is pretty awesome! ;)

I know more about Honda than my local dealership thanks to Honda Laura

Great job on the review and overview. So sad to see that the manual is gone and CVT is the only choice now for 2019. #savethemanual

Great review! Can you please review the EX trim?

To this level a keyless entry/start button should be included.

I always wanted the HR-V too😭!!! But I also love my civic haha at least we still own Honda’s!!!! 💙

Honda Laura! Yes please... the HRV is cute too ❤️

How would be the performance if all people are driving up the hill, is the power enough to pull?

Honda did a good job with the refresh.

Can you show 2019 and 2020 Honda HR-V self driving assist, safety feature, back up assist, lane changing assist? Does it have head up display like Hyundai Kona

Great presentation Laura I still have to deal with dealers in Florida but Seekonk is better

I love that this 2019 car comes with a cd player!!

Laura - could you tell us when you'll have 2020 HRV? Also will it have White Leather Interior like ones we see on other youtube channels?

Is this 1.8 liter direct injection engine on this car? Is the cvt reliableband able to be serviced every 40k miles

Laura of Hondaa

Great car

Why aren’t there EX trims around? Not at dealers, not in RU-vid reviews? When will they drop?

Bought the White one a week ago for my daughter. Nice suv

I'm here for laura!

ok herb chambers, you heard it, honda laura want her a hrv. so after this great video and it makes me want one, lets get laura some keys to one. take her civic and sell it for 100k bucks to a fan and make the hot little lady happy. thank you laura for another great video. my eyes are happy to have seen you again today. youtube sensation girl!!!

Love you

Like most people under 40 you don`t seem to know what that slot over the radio is. Also not pointed out is that these have a spare tire and jack. May never need it but I want it there in case I ever do. Many of the reviews don`t point out there is the tilt /telescopic steering column. The mileage is a bit better for for the FWD over the AWD. and is $1400 less money. Good luck finding one, I searched my state and the 2 other closest and found only 2 available. I didn`t see any need for all the tech crap the next models up come with. Yes in case you have not figured it out yet I`m in the well past 40 crowd and I drove off the lot with mine after writing a check for $19,500.

Hi Laura. What made you get the Honda Civic? You seem to really like the HR-V.

Hi! I loved your video and I just got a Honda Hr-V Lx today. Question...how did you change the ambient meter color on the gauge? I can’t get mine to change from green!!

LX has fewer speakers than other hrvs, but does have a CD player, which isn't an option on higher priced ones (unlike Subarus) -- as far as I can see they don't even have an AUX jack to play a portable CD through the speakers (unlike hyundais). So how well does that LX CD player work and how do those four speakers sound? I do like the fact that it also has a USB that I assume can play MP3 files, but I like the CD player for audiobooks from the library and recordings I buy from musician friends and want to play before I get them home to a computer to rip to mp3.

She is just so cute ❤😂

This is what my dad drives. His doesn’t have a touch screen or anything because he didn’t want to mess with all that. He’s pushing 70 and not the type that wants to learn a ton about tech lmao 😂

Laura I’m looking to invest in a 2019 Honda hrv. How much will the price be in 2020?

Can you please compare the 2019 Odyssey Elite and 2019 Sienna Limited Platinum?

Luara ur all looking is soooo much cute and beautiful and ur Honda review is nice,and ur little face smiles is very much cute,I like this Luara,,,,

Got one yesterday💕💕💕 Lol when the car is so basic and you run out of things to say basically.😂😂😂😂

two beautiful being honda and laura

Hola very nice Hr v✌🏻❤️

Man cute ride tho

Nice

do you call cloth high end material

So this has less power, less weight but gets less mpg than a CRV?

No Gps?

I have the 2020 HRV Sport and sadly it doesn't have a cd player in it. I think Honda is phasing out the cd players because my 2011 CRV had a 5 cd carousel, then my 2016 has only 1 now... and non for the 2020's according to the sales rep. I guess, I'll be using my usb stick for selected music from now on.

"NOT A FART" HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Not a fart...koodos to the video editor

I want to finance a civic with $2000 down excellent credit so how much monthly?

I'd get the base model, nothing I absolutely need in the higher trims.

Do the 2019 civic sport

Laura is looking mighty charming and attractive!

Love the funky look of the hrv. But find nothing else compelling to seitch from cr-v turbo. More hp and better mpg from crv.

I want to see the EX version

💕💕💕💕

Can’t believe they fired her

in car models a "coupe" should be pronounced "coupay" and not coup. This is from french naming when a car has 2 doors only and the back seats are only accessed from the front doors.

Nice!!!i mean that girl

Some cons after driving it 2 months: The seats are very uncomfortable, very hard, very painful to lower back. The rear lights are very weak and not helpful when backing up in the rain or any dark area. Going from forward to reverse is slow, I have to punch it to catch the gear.

👍❤

How about the Honda sensing?

It sounded like one to me 😂😂

No Brasil infelizmente o HR-V perde para os principais rivais em itens comuns que outros automóveis inferior já vem como opcionais ou de série. 1 - Chave Star top; 2 - Saída de ar para bancos traseiros; 3 - Teto solar; 4 - Sensores de colisões; 5 - Aquecimento de bancos; e 6 - Ajuste de bancos elétricos. Obs: o carro é muito bom, se acrescentar esses itens e algo a mais... O HR-V voltaria ser líder do segmento!

I'm sold on the car by cute lady, what a fun channel.

Isnot honda for soccar moms only?

Wow. She farted. Lol. Love her.

Too Cute! The girl and the car - that is.

Is the background music necessary? Am I the only one who finds background music to be a bad distraction.

"Compact sedan"??

Why did not you talk about the sunroof in the car? !!!!!!!
