@dannyboi2004 Год назад

I just bought an HRV a few days ago . Obviously it’s not a rocket ship when it comes to acceleration, but it’s not bad as online reviews make it seem. My 1998 Ford F150 is slow , these new 4cyl cars are fast for what they are . They can’t all be Tesla Performance models haha. Just my two cents from a HRV owner :) .

@julesinwonderland9102 Год назад

I agree!! This isn’t meant to be a race car. I am in a 1999 CR-V now and waiting for my 2023 HR-V EX-L to be delivered. I can’t wait!

@YesThatsMeFolks 5 месяцев назад

I was so worried about purchasing a HRV because of the reviews. So I test drove 2 Honda HRV 2024 just to be sure from two different dealerships. So worth it! I got the white sport HRV. I really wanted the AWD but I was on a budget for a car and didn’t want to pay more than 30k I love my car though!!!

@Unchainedmaple888 Год назад

They seriously need a powerful hybrid HR-V to compete with the Corolla Cross Hybrid. The 2.0L NA engine's pretty anemic for how large this car is now.

@Fadic4 Год назад

We’re probably going to get a hybrid once the global situation calms down a bit. Honda already confirmed we’re getting a Civic hybrid so it makes no sense for this not to get it considering they expect 50%+ of CR-V sales to be hybrids.

@rkt81 Год назад

Why do you need more power to do 60 kms in city and 120 kms on highway. Is there any untold agreement to feed the courts and cops on more fines or extra taxes for their fat pay cheques??

@barbz_zayne Год назад

The 2023 HR-V should’ve upgraded from the 1.8L i4 to the 1.5T i4, optional on LX and Sport, but standard on EX-L, from the previous gen CR-V. And, the 2023 CR-V should’ve upgraded from a 1.5T i4 to a 2.0T i4, optional on the EX trim, standard on EX-L.

@orangeflames05 Год назад

I believe Honda has said that they will eventually come out with an HR-V hybrid, with likely the same power train as the new civic hybrid, which has about 180 HP.

@jimmyr1683 Год назад

@lakegeneva9755 7 месяцев назад

Great video as always! We picked up the EX-L, I never owned a Honda. I was super impressed with the interior and quality. Your video helped too :)

@BeyondTheTestDrive Год назад

I would be perfectly ok with the power and acceleration if the fuel efficiency was commensurate. We had the Toyota Corolla Cross recently and it is just a tad quicker but does do better in the fuel efficiency area.

@polarbearskullleader6609 10 месяцев назад

@alandaters8547 Год назад

This looks like an excellent small SUV. The addition of a turbo to add maybe 20-30 HP would be a big help (maybe a lighter 2 WD option too). The CVT programming could allow a quick engine RPM increase, reducing turbo lag. The amount of technical sophistication for the price is awesome. Nice review!

@majorcalvary6515 Год назад

I like Toyotas and Hondas a lot. I am not a big fan of my current bulky Acura MDX. It has grown on me, but often I wanted a smaller vehicle for better mileage and easier to park in the city parking lots. When my daughter start to drive in a couple years, she’ll get my MDX. I’m considering Corolla Cross Sport, HRV, Mazda CX-30, maybe an Audi Q3. Depends what I feel like to spend at that time.

@MikedaLuffy90 Год назад

Try test driving them all, but the Mazda CX-30 with the 6 Speed Automatic is the best for the money. The others have a CVT, but good gas mileage if that is something you're looking for. Audi Q3 if you need something luxurious.

@dorothyann100 Год назад

I absolutely love my 2023 HRV LX AWD. It’s beautifully designed, looks pure, elegant and very European. It handles beautifully and is so comfortable to ride in, I feel like I’m sitting in the comfort of my living room. Some have complained about the power, but it’s fine for me, as someone with a heavy foot, I tend to take greater risks in faster cars. So this is a safer vehicle for me. I especially love the ease of getting in and out of this vehicle, not too high up, and not too low down - just right. I just love this car ❤

@kenhoward3512 Год назад

"Once you're at speed, the power is fine." HaHa. That's the most diplomatic description yet of the slowness of this car. As a base powertrain, this engine/trans is fine, but I'd love to know, truthfully, why Honda decided to not offer an optional engine upgrade of either their turbocharged or hybrid options for the HR-V Sport and/or EX-L trim-levels. Was it just to cut production costs?

@fangyideng3131 Год назад

To me Honda is allocating massive money to EV development and production by cutting features and value pricing on their ICE vehicles. The new CR-V is the perfect example. Oh and don't forget about the supply chain issue, apparently Honda has it the worset among the Japanese

@kenhoward3512 Год назад

@@fangyideng3131 If the new CR-V is a perfect example of "cutting features and value pricing," why is Honda offering it with a hybrid option? And a Civic Hybrid, soon, as well (which is on the same platform as this HR-V)? With competition from the upcoming Corolla Cross Hybrid, I think Honda made a mistake, here, with the HR-V, in terms of fuel economy and power (though it does have a nicer interior).

@JamesCovalentBond Год назад

I appreciate Honda how much it upgraded Hr-v from the previous generation, but i like the style of the European version Hr-v over this, 'cause its more handsome and smaller. I believe this Hr-v is kinda too big for its segment, and it surely needs a stronger powertrain. Plus, i believe this car was the main reason why Honda messed up with the new Cr-v, kinda encouraging the customers who wanted cheaper Cr-v to buy Hr-v instead. I have never imagined a compact SUV would start its price from 30k lol

@ragweedmakesmesneeze Год назад

I just don't know about this one. This is a "10-second car" and not in a good way, really unimpressive gas mileage (especially for a something with not a lot of horsepower AND a CVT), and not a great deal of cargo space. IN FACT, the Honda Civic Hatchback has MORE cargo room (okay, 24.5 vs 24.4; but still), gets 7-9 mpg MORE, and has never been accused of being too slow. That said, I love the positivity feels of your family auto reviews!

It is common for this class to not have rear vents since the car it’s self is small enough that you can feel the air from the front in the back (or at least that is what I have heard). Most of the cars in this class have the rear vents on higher trims. I guess the hrv doesn’t.

It looks like a nice vehicle. But, subcompact SUV? I know that's what they're labeling it for marketing, but it has almost as much legroom as a Camry. Regardless of what the manufacturers call it, automotive journalists should label it for what it is--a midsize station wagon, which is more useful than a subcompact SUV.
