GOOD SUV FOR THE PRICE

After owning and driving the 2025 Sport Honda HRV for 3 weeks now, here is my review and comments: Comfort— The seats are firm but comfortable. However, for those with a sensitive back, the vehicle might not suit them because the HRV rides a bit rough and bumpy on uneven roads. I also purchased a lumbar support cushion, because the Sport does not have lumbar adjustment support. Room— The HRV is roomier than I expected for its size. Perfect for a small family, running errands in town, or for taking a trip—Plenty of room, and it’s easy to get in and out of for those who like to sit higher than in a car. Gas Mileage— To date, I am getting 31.2 mpg combined. Not Bad. With that being said, I am easy on the gas pedal. Quiet: No, the car is not as quiet as it could be. It does transmit road noise into the cabin, especially if the road surface is rough. Perhaps the non sport models are quieter due to different tire and wheel configuaration. If you want quiet, then look elsewhere. Technology— It has all the technology I will ever need, or use. Honestly, I will not use every bell-and-whistle this SUV has to offer. Interior Materials— Door panels are a basic, cheap hard plastic, but then this is a utility SUV. If cheap plastic bothers you, look elsewhere. The dash board is not as hard as my previous Subaru so time will tell if the sun’s UV rays will damage the dash—I hope not. The upholstery is quality and should hold up well over a long time. I did not get the cheap leather-like vinyl. I did invest in all-weather matts and a cargo tray to protect the carpet areas. Eventually, I add front seat covers to protect the original. Mechanical— This vehicle has a well-tested and very reliable 2.0 litter non-turbo engine with a CVT trans. No, I did not purchase the AWD model as this will deliver poorer gas milage and mechanically it will be more expensive to service. Since I keep my cars for a long time, for extra security, I got the extended Honda warranty, and I am covered up to 100K anywhere in the U.S. and Mexico. I also got insurance on the wheels and tires, and the windshield (with censor camera) since these can be pretty pricy to replace. Power—There have been complaints that the HRV is underpowered. I disagree. The HRV is certainly not a MAZDA SUV or Hyundai, or KIA, but it has enough power to get the job done efficiently. Honda knows what they are doing. If the you want more power, then look elsewhere. I hope my review is objective helpful enough for someone that is considering purchasing this vehicle.

Sad for grandmas!

I am grateful for the ease of getting in and getting out. However, I am a senior and whoever designed the little SUV did not have grandma in mind! I need the trunk to go shopping but the door opens so high and is so heavy that I cannot reach it. And I miss the handles that were on my other Hondas above the driver and passenger doors. I have had 6 Hondas. Other than the ease of getting in and out, I'm not calling this my favorite. +

Sophisticated styling, safe, and reliable

Great looking inside and out, with many safety features, a very reliable Honda engine, good interior space, and reasonable horse power and gas mileage for a non-hybrid. Not for those who want fast acceleration or a hybrid's mpg, but great for those who want a practical car that is very safe, well built, reliable, and has a more premium, sophisticated look inside and out.

Disappointing Buy- if I could do no stars I would

The seats in this car are not completely done, the upholstery in the front seats is half done. From the outside it's complete, but inside the material in the seats it's just hanging. I don't know if they did not have enough material or did not have money to pay for a complete job. I found out a week after I bought the car, I contacted Honda manufacturers and my Honda dealership. The representative at the Honda manufacturers told me it did not sound right, for me to call my dealership. I contacted them and took the car to them for inspection, while they agree with me that this is something they have never seen the have to jump through hoops to find out for sure. They contacted their Honda representative, and they go around dealerships to see if the other HRV's are the same. Then they turn around and tell that this is normal, now just because all of them are done wrong does not make this right. I contacted the Honda manufacturer again they said they opened up a ticket just to turn around and tell me the findings that the dealership representative found was correct. Now I have bought plenty of vehicles and I have never seen this before, this is the first and last time I buy a Honda. It is incredible for a company that is supposed to be a really good company to not be able to completely upholster their seats and call it a normal thing. I am very disappointed, if you are buying this car please think twice about it.

Love my HRV! Always reliable! I know it doesn't have a lot of power but good enough for me! I am not looking for power! Better then my 2020 HRV!
