Thanks for this video! I will most definitely get a HR-V. Having moved to Colorado I need a AWD crossover that can handle the snow, not to expensive and still get comparable mpg's to my Cruze. This vehicle fits the mode perfect!
I actually bought a HR-V ex-l, and I'm hoping it does well in the snow. I bought mine based on your first off-road review of it. Keep the great videos coming!!
I love this little suv BUT Honda does not make it with a 6 Speed Manual with AWD... it is a shame that Honda doesn't understand that many car buyers that are not happy with Subaru's issues will just switch to Honda because of better overall reliability.
Nice video and thanks for posting. I was impressed with my HRV in the snow and ice with the stock tires. Imagine the HRV with real snow or winter tires. Use my HRV for on road condition. Off road, I used a M561 Gamma Goat. LOL.
Would you recommend it for winter city driving? I'm talking about Winnipeg in Canada, but let's say an average city with regular but not constant snow plowing.
I am beginning to really consider an HR-V. My question is this--how reliable is the CVT from Honda? I like to keep my vehicles for a long time and was curious as to whether you think that the HR- V will hold up over the long haul. I enjoyed the video but I knew that those trucks would make it due to the deep ruts in the snow pack. The off road capability doesn't interest me The only time I went " off-road" was with my 1989 Mazda 323 hatchback w/ 4 speed manual. I went down a trail in the Green Mountain National Forest but that "road" was not that bad. I just went slow and steady.
LOL! "Let me just double check here..." Hands off, reading a sheet of paper, going down a snowy hill. I dont know why, but that made me laugh out loud. Its like the perfect storm of "never do this", in such a way that it felt intentionally comical, like a bad 90's work place safety informational VHS. Im sure you didnt mean it to be funny, but im still chuckling from it.
+Everyman Driver Oh I know it wasn't anywhere near as bad as it looked. There was just something about the timing of it, with the look on your face in one camera, and the ground getting closer in the other camera, that just made it hilarious.
+Peter Ximas No more off-roading UNLESS the vehicle is meant for off-roading... even then, I may not chance it.... don't want to be black listed for abusing press vehicles... sorry.
+Everyman Driver ok then .. But i'm sure the volvo xc90 is meant to face more difficult situations than the little HR-V...awd Haldex , air suspension so you can increase the ground clearance , SUV category....
Are people seriously complaining that he read for like 4 seconds while he was going 2mph while there was nothing in front of him? I guarantee the same people comparing do way worse stuff while driving.
This guy has the perfect broadcaster voice.
Lol when the car was still moving and he was reading off the paper
+Riding With Jahv I promise you, I was not being reckless or unsafe.
At 2 while mph :p
+Everyman Driver CAN U MORE TOYOTA REVIEWS THANKS

You scared me when you got close to those ponds. *Flashback*.
deep wet snow is toughest to go in...HRV did well! other trucks had bigger tires and did not make the hill...
+mike schlup I thought so too. Thx
Thanks for this video! I will most definitely get a HR-V. Having moved to Colorado I need a AWD crossover that can handle the snow, not to expensive and still get comparable mpg's to my Cruze. This vehicle fits the mode perfect!
I appreciate you testing this car this way, it'll work for me in a normal Minnesota winter then. ;)
Do you ever try turning the traction control off? I think it would do much better!
I actually bought a HR-V ex-l, and I'm hoping it does well in the snow. I bought mine based on your first off-road review of it. Keep the great videos coming!!
xzimxzim how are you enjoying your hrv so far? 3 years now. I’d like to know
How's it going with your Honda HRV?
Now in 2020 I would really want HRV in this decent blue color
I love this little suv BUT Honda does not make it with a 6 Speed Manual with AWD... it is a shame that Honda doesn't understand that many car buyers that are not happy with Subaru's issues will just switch to Honda because of better overall reliability.
Would the HR-V perform better in this type of snow with the paddle shifters keeping the gear low and the traction control switched off?
Nice video and thanks for posting. I was impressed with my HRV in the snow and ice with the stock tires. Imagine the HRV with real snow or winter tires. Use my HRV for on road condition. Off road, I used a M561 Gamma Goat. LOL.
So you weren't getting stuck in the snow? I'm deciding between the HRV and the Crosstrek!
Would you recommend it for winter city driving? I'm talking about Winnipeg in Canada, but let's say an average city with regular but not constant snow plowing.
I own a 2020, and would say it would be ideal for conditions you mentioned here
Hi Dave, even a Range Rover Supercharged with good tires may have a hard time climbling what they were trying to do. Love the HRV. Chears!
You do great work! I really enjoy watching your RUclips channel.

+bigbuckoramma It wasn't as bad as it may have looked.... I wasn't going that fast and no one was around AND I had my foot on the brake :-)
Y'all are gonna get him into trouble lol
There was nothing in front of him and he was doing like 2mph...
+Everyman Driver Oh I know it wasn't anywhere near as bad as it looked. There was just something about the timing of it, with the look on your face in one camera, and the ground getting closer in the other camera, that just made it hilarious.
+bigbuckoramma somthing out of Reno 911 lmao
would be better if you can put winter tires on
How do you think the hrv all wheel does in snowy conditions compared to how the 2wd might perform? Much difference?
Awesome as always Dave !!!!
thanks for review...I have hr-v and I love it....
+mbpatel84 Sweet!
I love your videos!
Did you ever do a snowy off-road review of the 2017-18 Nissan Rogue?
Lana In America I don’t know, let me do a search on my RUclips channel. Let me Type in “off-road 2017 Nissan Rogue” or “ off-road 2018 Nissan Rogue”.
great review!
Thats awesome, I'm surprised it made it that far
WTF happened to MPG over the years? I had a 1980 mustang that got 35 MPG on the highway...and it was 9 years old at the time.
It's better in the snow with sports mode on
I enjoy the videos. What is the song you are playing?
What tires are on this car? Winter snow or stock all seasons?
Some xc90 please !!! In the same conditions !! Pleaaaaasssee !! Great job ! I love your videos !
+Peter Ximas No more off-roading UNLESS the vehicle is meant for off-roading... even then, I may not chance it.... don't want to be black listed for abusing press vehicles... sorry.
+Everyman Driver ok then .. But i'm sure the volvo xc90 is meant to face more difficult situations than the little HR-V...awd Haldex , air suspension so you can increase the ground clearance , SUV category....
These tests should ALWAYS be done with 4 winter tires on vehicles.
these things would be a sweet tuner car man...6 speed awd sohc vtec hatchback...
Did that car make it to the top?
Did you test it uphills at altitude above 8000 ft? Just curious how it did on power. Thanks
How did the heated seats work out? Were they on?
What's your best bet for an AWD under 30k for snow
that looks incredibly dangerous! i was scared just watching this lol
Should there be a light that turns on when the AWD is being used?
so which car would you choose, this 2016 Honda hr-v with the cvt and awd or a Subaru crosstrek with the cvt (and awd obvi)
hrv
any specific reason why?
Crosstrek has more powerful engine,aggressive design,exceptional AWD, the honda awd is the worst out there.
Can u make a chevy traverse, orlando, benz glc review?
MORE TOYOA REVIEWS PLEASE
+Thivakar saravanamuthu I want to but it'll come for dealerships.
+Everyman Driver ok
Have another red bull
7:47 = The only thing that will be able to make it up that snowy slope would be a vehicle fitted with MATTRACKS.
Are toyota rush available in north america?
It didnt go up the snow hill!
Could you try the pilot.
Dave..please try the new murano in the snow.
+ijaz mom Please try the new Miata in the snow.
can you please try to get a 2016 ford edge and try this? love your videos!
+Cade LaRotonda I don't get Ford vehicles right now and I'm positive it would NOT be appreciated if I took it off-road. Sorry.
+Everyman Driver damn that sucks. thanks for the reply!
+ Hello everyman Driver I will like to know if you can do with a 2016 Mazda CX-5 or the 2016 Kia Sorento thank you keep up the good work👍
+Arthur Fernandes I'm gonna be more careful about which vehicles I take off-road. I don't want to be seen as abusive or reckless.
this car is common in Indonesia
Hi, thanks for your video. I have a quick question here. Could H-RV be switched between AWD and FWD?
No. It "senses" when you need AWD and engages.
Are people seriously complaining that he read for like 4 seconds while he was going 2mph while there was nothing in front of him? I guarantee the same people comparing do way worse stuff while driving.
+everyman driver thankyou for the reply
Another youtuber did by disengaging the traction control on there HR-V
I HAVE HONDA VEZEL 2WD DRIVE .
you gave the wrong information about the motor it is a single over head cam aka SOHC not a DOHC
Why not in french too :-)
Problema is not the power... it's the summer tires fited.
+Pedro Teixeira It has all season tires. Power is the problem, especially the CVT - it delivers very little torque at low speed.
all season tires suck in snow , you need winter tires
lol all-season is not all-season. It's 3-season.
блин, ну кто так снимает?! невозможно определить глубину снега и реальное бездорожье
More off road videos
Please do a review on 2015 or 16 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4x4 in this trail. thanks
HRV 🇨🇷 VS 🇯🇵 VEZEL
lol the song says epic fail. Which is... true for those poor guys!
i would not trusted to all season tyres .in winter you must have winter tyres ,in summer ,summer tyres So these all season are crap .
seriously???
You were suppose to show the AWD abilites of the HRV and we saw a lot of other people showing of their 4WD... What a waste of my time!!!
+Ann Glore sorry
Lazy engine and headlights looks foggy already, like an 10yr.old car
