Great style, mediocre performance and features

Having had a CR-V for a couple of years, and loving it, we decided to buy a second Honda, the redesigned HR-V. After driving it for a little over a year, here are the goods and bads. Overall, if I could go back to my purchase decision, I would not buy this car again. Good: styling, cargo space, eespecially when seats are folded down, wireless Android auto, interior layout, especially center console, and safety features work great. Bad: gas mileage is average at best, lacks power- especially for gas mileage it gets, push open gas cap has malfunctioned at least 6 times, twice causing the latch on the door panel to break, seat belt mechanism has stuck repeatedly, back seats lack any creature comforts- no devoted power or fold down center for drink holders, no assisted lift gate, wireless charger only works about 75% of the time, trade in value at this point is very low compared to retail price

Not a cold weather car

I have a 223 HR-V Sport. It is fun to drive and the 4wd is very good in deep snow. But the car has issues with cold weather. The screen freezes up and frosts over, takes quite a while to thaw out. The heater cannot keep up, sometimes it doesn't get warm, even after a half hour of driving. And the battery is way under powered. I had the car for 2 months and the battery could no longer command-start the car. I had to buy a trickle charger and plug it in each night just to keep the battery charged enough to run the car. A few notes. I am in Winnipeg and the temp has been -20 Celsius. While this is cold, it does get much colder. And I don't drive it much, about 500 km per month. I was told by the Honda dealer that I don't drive it enough to keep the battery charged. Odd since it replaced a 2019 CRV with virtually same features, same climate, same driving style and it didn't have any of these problems.

This car is NOT slow and very comfortable too! A great driving car on country road! Do test drive yourself and you'll find that it defies the so called expert review.

Typical Honda

I took possession of my new HRV in Oct. 2022, There is a rattle in the back hatch and at 1800 miles there is now a crack in the front windshield. Honda and the dealer have rejected my request they replace the window. The crack is all the way down to the bottom edge and working up. No real rock ding. Very disappointing. The handling and feel have been great, just disappointed with the way I've been dismissed by Honda.
