Under the HoodÂ
In this section here we’ll discuss the mechanical power that’s inside the HR-V, and where and how far it can take you. It all starts with a powerful In-line 4-cylinder engine. This generates up to 141 horsepower while also producing 127 lb-ft of torque.
All this power means that the Honda HR-V can take you where you want to go with ease. Plus, with the Continuously Variable Transmission, you’ll have practically seamless shifting for a smooth drive.
In trims with 2WD, you’ll achieve an EPA-estimated 28 city/34 highway MPG.1 For increased traction control, opt for the AWD and achieve an EPA-estimated 27 city/31 highway MPG.1 This impressive fuel economy plus a 13.2-gallon gas tank means you can skip the pump on the way to work.
Safely Designed
While the HR-V has many safety features that are designed to protect and assist you, an available option to add to your Honda HR-V is the Honda Sensing® suite of technologies. This suite of driver-assist tech has your safety in mind.
One of the features is the Road Departure Mitigation System, which does its part to make sure you’re staying in the proper lane. It detects drifting without the use of a turn signal, and it’ll apply steering or braking pressure to alert you to the situation.
Another feature is Adaptive Cruise Control. It’s designed to help keep your vehicle a safe distance from the one ahead of you. Set the distance between the car ahead of you, and your vehicle will slow down or speed up to maintain that distance.
The last one we’ll go in depth on is the Forward Collision Warning. This feature scans ahead of your vehicle to help prevent a collision. It’ll alert you to any hazards in time for you to take appropriate action.
Entertainment & ConvenienceÂ
The Honda HR-V does not lack for fun features in entertaining you. It starts off with a 160-watt audio system with 4 speakers that comes complete with a 5-inch color LCD screen. Right off the bat, you have a great entry into audio enjoyment–but there’s more!
The setup is also equipped to utilize Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® and streaming audio. You can easily manage your calls and tunes with both hands solidly on the wheel while your devices are connected.
And when we talk about convenience features, we begin with the air conditioning with air-filtration system which is great for keeping cool and clear from outside particles. A few others include:
- One-touch turn indicators
- 12-volt power outlet (front/2nd-row)
- Illuminated steering-wheel-mounted controls
As you can see, there’s even more to discover with the HR-V’s features and what they can do for you.
