Everyone complains about this amazing car. I own one. It drives just like a civic but bigger. It isn’t completely loud and annoying as everyone make it seem. Yes 0-60 is slow. That’s if you trying to race and launch like a rocket. But normal driving. It’s great. Highway can be a bit sluggish.sometime I’m driving 75 mph, I’m passing everyone 🤷♀️🤷♀️ it really depends how you drive and take care of your baby.
Packaging of the new HRV is a major miss. Larger exterior dimensions, manages to have less cargo capacity than the outgoing model (55.1 vs 58.8 cubic feet). RIP magic seats, the HR-V is just another underpowered crossover now.
My father has the first gen hrv it's awful lol. The seats have a very weird upright driving position and the footwell is very narrow. t's one of the least comfortable cars i have ever driven. I had a 30 year old corolla that was more comfortable then the hrv lol.
Most people don’t use the magic seats, and tbh a 6.2% decrease in cargo space is negligible for most. My main issue is the underpowered engine and lack of heated steering wheel (as far as I know?) You’ve got a Civic engine when it really should be closer to a CRV-or at least the damn Accord!! 🤦♂️
you finally did it, thanks topher!! the redesign still remains extremely underpowered (in my opinion, 50-100 extra hp wouldn't hurt) and the car's missing a few critical features, mostly smaller things, but all around a good, seemingly reliable vehicle. thanks again
This is the perfect SUV if you want to own for 10-20+ years. The Honda 2.0 liter naturally aspirated engine is bulletproof. NA engines last longer then turbos as per Scotty Kilmer.
Just needs the new 2.0L hybrid setup from the European Civic or just something more powerful because that 2.0L NA engine is way too anemic for how large and heavy the HR-V has gotten. If it had more power, I'd definitely consider it way more than the Civic since it has way less gloss black in the interior than the Civic. A hybrid would add more power and better MPGs.
@@Unchainedmaple888 Nah, our offer, waiting time and prices are all worse.For example rav4 prime starts nowdays at unbelievable 63k euros. Thats 63k dollars more or less.
Agreed. My wife has one (2018) and it's a great little car, but I'm not a fan of the CVT. But this one looks like it missed the mark in other areas, and I prefer the size and shape of the previous version (interior and exterior).
For me, full pass. That motor should be at least a 2.2 - 2.4 l and turbo charged as an option. In the mountains the motor is insufficient. Toss in a hybrid to the 2.4 w/ turbo would seriously raise the bar.
I have a problem with Honda when it comes to road noise, but the big problem is the steering wheel, you can notice between 8:22 and 9:03 minutes in the video the steering wheel always pulls to the left but the car drives straight. It's the same problem I have on my 2012 civic even with the alignment I just did, the steering wheel is never straight even with the new HRV. I prefer something else 🚦
I'm really split over this one. Looks ok and the interior is great but but magic seat are gone and it's only been given the 2.0L NA engine here in the states seem like a huge misstep by Honda.
Honda dropped the ball for the US HR-V. It should have been the Honda Vezel which has the magic seats and still sticks true to the HR-V tradition. Now with this , it's just another small SUV. This is technically the Honda ZR-V.
Yes this one zrv as you mentioned And the zrv is like upper trim than the hrv and slightly bigger in total dimensions (I was one day in the show room and I saw both the zrv and hrv) I noticed something that the American zrv has a lack of features even the top level EXL No 12 Bose speakers No powered tailgate No rear vents Only 3 usb type c No seat memory No powered passenger seat Only front windows are fully automatic 2.0L Underpowered engine No 10.2 cluster digital gauges No 360 camera
Hi Topher-- Thanks for the HRV review! Question: how does Honda's lane keep assist compare with KIA's lane following assist? Does Honda's system keep the vehicle centered in its lane with no ping-ponging? Thanks!
Hey, I own an hrv with the newest system. Honestly, it’s one of the best systems I’ve used so far. It’s pretty much completely hands off on the highway. Through turns and all. Even comparable to my Tesla! I would guess it’s better than Kia.
@Luke Shope Thanks Luke! That's great news! With the Honda HRV system, is the driver allowed to keep the lane centering on even without adaptive cruise control? I find this feature very useful. Thanks!
@Luke Shope Thanks again! Very glad that Honda allows the use of their lane centering even without adaptive cruise. Here in LA it's a godsend during the tedious parts of even surface street stop and go traffic! Having the car stay centered without much input is great. Thanks again for the insight regarding Honda's newest lane centering tech!
We as consumers need to start campaigning for auto makers to put engine oil. Life monitors and all of their cars and increase their maintenance friendly features - cars are getting very advanced and yet there's very little smart maintenance features coming down the pipeline and that is because they want irresponsible or careless owners to break their cars so that they have to buy another one. We need to hold them accountable and demand that they make it easier for young/irresponsible/mechanically inept drivers to stay on top of their vehicles proactive maintenance needs - i'm not saying this because I am one of those people although I used to be at one point, but I'm saying this because I know the used car market would be a lot better if people took better care of their cars.
I almost bought one a few yrs ago, and I'm SO thankful I didn't. Honda does almost everything right for me - I wanted AWD & didn't want a huge vehicle. The main reason I didn't get the HRV, that it was dangerously underpowered. TBH, Honda should be ashamed of themselves re: this HRV. I get it, the smaller models keep bloating til they're bigger than the senior models, a new small one's introduced, blah, blah, repeat. It's time car makers get called out for putting so little power into their cars. I'm so happy EVs are replacing these sad, sad vehicles. Honda "ups" the hp to 158hp & the HRV's suddenly bigger than a CRV? Enough of these grocery-getters for domesticated, soulless clock-punchers. I'm not even the same species as someone who thinks 158hp is "acceptable".
If anyone here owns a 10 gen civic, does your drivers seat creak like the hardwood floors in a 150 year old house? Mine does. I only have 68,000 miles and don’t abuse my seat in any capacity. Every time I stop or accelerate it creaks LOUDLY 😖
How do you get such a straight-on view of the tachometer with your gopro headmount? I just got one and I'm finding the view to be way higher and I'm not even that tall. Do you lower the drivers seats like crazy in your reviews? Thanks!!
You mean in usa is badged as a HRV. HRV is completely different from the ZRV let say that the HRV is discontinued from usa and it has lacks features. No 360 camera No powered tailgate No 12 Bose speakers No 1.5T engine with 180hp No passenger powered seat No driver seat memory No rear vents No rear usb type c No 12V plug at the centre console No 10.2 digital gauge cluster
the speakers may not be as great as branded ones, but the mic you used is great. i really thought you added a music track to the video instead of from the car speakers
Nothing like a more boxy, less sleek, Civic Hatchback 😂 I think the new hatchback for 11th gen Civics just annihilates the very idea of the HRV, even the CRV (it rivals that larger vehicle in cargo space). I think the crossover phenomenon is starting to peak...hopefully the overarching SUV madness will eventually dissipate, as well.
Just about everything on this car is great interior is nice it is good on gas and it's not too expensive it's just the power train it needs like 50 or 100 more hp or at least a hybrid or a 1.5
We test drove one the deal breaker was it's way too slow. I looked up the 0-60 after and it was over 10 sec. Dealers were also asking 4K over sticker so the Honda was nearly 35K. Ended up getting a CX-5 top trim level with the Mazda we got 1,500 off sticker so basically the same price and the Mazda is way nicer. Also not fast but 0-60 in the 8's is reasonable
I am soooo glad they stayed with 2.0 petrol engine and not any shitty turbo or electric or hybrid. Bless Honda. We were afraid we would have to buy some last normal engine 2019 Hondas and store them for future ha ha.
@@theobsession2581 take a 23 Pilot and chop off some of the rear hahah but given how much more upscale the pilot is now that should be a good thing, and the trailsport actually means somethign now
Hmm in Pakistan we got the previous generation of hrv and it's currently launched but it can't compete with others like Sportage, Tucson , Mg HS ,proton ,Changan etc as lack of features that Honda Pakistan offers but design is out class
Who told you Pakistan got the previous generation of Hrv the Hrv Pakistan got is the latest generation and the same car as this with just a different body style which is for the Asian market the Hrv which Pakistan gets is exactly the same as the current gen vezel in Japan the car which you see in this video is American car which is for the USA/Canada only
These things sell McDonald’s hamburgers haha .. it’s just goes to show you the buyers of this vehicle could car less about 0-60 times and enthusiastic driving.. and that’s the point of it
You can shut off adaptive cruise by holding the distance control button on the steering wheel. Lane keep assist is in the honda sensing settings menu in the gauge cluster
If i compare this 2022 compact SUV HR-V interior and exterior with my 2022 German version Kia Sportage compact SUV with the same size? I must say that this car is more than 5 years behind
Suffers from the "Saggy Butt" syndrome. Also, rear looks like a mini van. Not the best looking vehicle overall. lol But I digress, as I'm here for, The Topher video.
The Civic interior should've been more like this HR-V where it's well styled and has nice materials without the disgusting amounts of gloss black that the Civic interior is plagued with
It pisses me off that there's nothing fun, small or cheap to buy in the US anymore.. it's as if fiscally lower/middle class people aren't being marketed to at all.
I really hate the driving experience, seats are uncomfortable and feel like I'm sitting on a rock. Along with suspension that are made to make you feel every single bump on the street. Freaking terrible, can't wait to trade it back in as soon as i saved up enough money. Hate this fking car. And it burns a lot of gas, when you hit 80mph it starts consuming fuels like water.
Honda really doesn’t have a clue what they’re doing underneath. JUST PUT MORE POWER IT IN FFS. Less power AND the CVT just make me never want to own this car. Put more power in it and I’d actually consider it even though it has a CVT. It looks great imo. Legit looks like an Acura if you squint from a distance or at night. The buyers for these types of vehicle DON’T WANT A BIG SUV THEY WANT A CAR THAT’S LIFTED THAT STILL HAS POWER. Get it right Honda. The CR-V is the volume seller NOT the HR-V.
They know what they're doing, there are other cars in the class have engines that are even less powerful. Kona base engine is 147hp, 10hp less than this and crosstrek base engine is 152hp. They know the base trims sell the best on budget vehicles, and the base trim on this offers heated seats and the interior is legit the best in class except for cx30. And it looks great even in base trim because leds are standard and wont have ugly looking incandescendants, they need to give this a hybrid powertrain and features like zrv version has and it would be perfect
@Brian Lee I still won’t be caught dead in a CVT bc the way I drive would put too much stress on it. Mazda is the only one who got it right. Regular old school 6 speed planetary gear transmission. I drove an Infiniti G35x with an old school 5 speed auto slushbox. It was LITERALLY BULLETPROOF. 1st gear pulls every day with the 3.5 VQ V6. They don’t make cars bulletproof anymore. They cheap out with outsourced CVT’s and crap built 4 cylinder engines. It is also due to emissions which I can’t really fight. And everything’s gonna be an EV soon. So in conclusion: I’m a motorcycle person now lol
@@shivamarya5225 The Kona was designed by a head BMW engineer and LITERALLY HAS A DCT IN IT. Subaru has their AWD and they market way lower than anyone in the class. Honda has nothing to stand out other than it looks like an Acura. A turbo/electric/hybrid is def needed to really stand out. It just needs around 170-180whp. That’s WHEEL hp not regular b**tch hp. This means the engine/powertrain needs to make 200hp.
@@rohanm54 kona still doesent look as good as hrv or cx30, doesent matter who it was supposedly designed by and it has 10 less hp than even the hrv regardless of a dct, Crosstrek is not just a niche subaru, its one of the best selling cars of this class and generally top 2 in this segment and its getting refreshed next year as well
THE REASON I DON'T GIVE MUCH CREEDENCE TO CAR REVIEWS IS THE SAME REASON I DON'T GIVE MUCH CREEDENCE TO CELL PHONE REVIEWS. THEY NIT PICK ABOUT EVERYTHING.
It pisses me off that there's nothing fun, small or cheap to buy in the US anymore.. it's as if fiscally lower/middle class people aren't being marketed to at all.
Compared to many modern cars this interior looks very traditional, but in a good way
It's very ergonomic
Like Civic. Take that tablet screen off and it would look fine in any era.
Yes. I find that very refreshing. I only wish the infotainment screen wasn't tablet-style. I really hate that.
Even the infotainment is setup in the same way old CRT tvs were, with control buttons and volume knobs of the left and a speaker connected to its back
It’s better than the last generation. It’s a great vehicle for those on a budget. The CRV is becoming nearly $40k.
The leather trim awd version is still 10k less than 2024 crv exl awd.
Last time I looked at this HRV the mark-up was $7k to $10k, dealers are terrible.
I worked at Honda not too long ago, they still are 7-10k and 20-30 for the type r
I so want this! The sport and base model, the seats SUCK! Zero lumbar support! Love that motor! That Car should last forever!

An NA 2L will last a lot longer than a stressed 1.5L turbo
They should of put the insight powertrain in this ! 1.5 hybrid. At least more torque

It’s like smelling gas and it’s addicting 🤣 i own a 2024 hrv brand new, the smell is faint now.
Venn diagram Practical, Performance, Design. This thing somehow misses everything
My brz was so smelly for the first 1k miles
😊👍👍👍
Europe version looks way better.
Honda is my favorite car brand, but damn, this is a sad car. That's the best way to put it. Reliable and comfortable I'm sure, but... sad.
This thing looks like depression on wheels.
😂
😂
💀
What is your car tho?
It looks like a generic car you’d see in grand theft auto.
Damn american HRV is nasty. That front is awful.
I much prefer european/global HRV.
This one looks like the new Ford escape from the front
Hino Truck.
158hp just aint acceptable lol
I really hate the driving experience, seats are uncomfortable and feel like I'm sitting on a rock. Along with suspension that are made to make you feel every single bump on the street. Freaking terrible, can't wait to trade it back in as soon as i saved up enough money. Hate this fking car. And it burns a lot of gas, when you hit 80mph it starts consuming fuels like water.
Those wheels are horrid.
Honda really doesn’t have a clue what they’re doing underneath. JUST PUT MORE POWER IT IN FFS. Less power AND the CVT just make me never want to own this car. Put more power in it and I’d actually consider it even though it has a CVT. It looks great imo. Legit looks like an Acura if you squint from a distance or at night. The buyers for these types of vehicle DON’T WANT A BIG SUV THEY WANT A CAR THAT’S LIFTED THAT STILL HAS POWER. Get it right Honda. The CR-V is the volume seller NOT the HR-V.
They know what they're doing, there are other cars in the class have engines that are even less powerful. Kona base engine is 147hp, 10hp less than this and crosstrek base engine is 152hp. They know the base trims sell the best on budget vehicles, and the base trim on this offers heated seats and the interior is legit the best in class except for cx30. And it looks great even in base trim because leds are standard and wont have ugly looking incandescendants, they need to give this a hybrid powertrain and features like zrv version has and it would be perfect
@Brian Lee I still won’t be caught dead in a CVT bc the way I drive would put too much stress on it. Mazda is the only one who got it right. Regular old school 6 speed planetary gear transmission. I drove an Infiniti G35x with an old school 5 speed auto slushbox. It was LITERALLY BULLETPROOF. 1st gear pulls every day with the 3.5 VQ V6. They don’t make cars bulletproof anymore. They cheap out with outsourced CVT’s and crap built 4 cylinder engines. It is also due to emissions which I can’t really fight. And everything’s gonna be an EV soon. So in conclusion: I’m a motorcycle person now lol
@@shivamarya5225 The Kona was designed by a head BMW engineer and LITERALLY HAS A DCT IN IT. Subaru has their AWD and they market way lower than anyone in the class. Honda has nothing to stand out other than it looks like an Acura. A turbo/electric/hybrid is def needed to really stand out. It just needs around 170-180whp. That’s WHEEL hp not regular b**tch hp. This means the engine/powertrain needs to make 200hp.
@@rohanm54 kona still doesent look as good as hrv or cx30, doesent matter who it was supposedly designed by and it has 10 less hp than even the hrv regardless of a dct, Crosstrek is not just a niche subaru, its one of the best selling cars of this class and generally top 2 in this segment and its getting refreshed next year as well
Its pretty sad when the new Prius has more power than this heavier SUV this thing is so underpowered.
THE REASON I DON'T GIVE MUCH CREEDENCE TO CAR REVIEWS IS THE SAME REASON I DON'T GIVE MUCH CREEDENCE TO CELL PHONE REVIEWS.
THEY NIT PICK ABOUT EVERYTHING.
It pisses me off that there's nothing fun, small or cheap to buy in the US anymore.. it's as if fiscally lower/middle class people aren't being marketed to at all.
