Really glad that Honda is bringing back buttons and dials! I hate the interior of a Tesla Model 3, with virtually everything being controlled like on a mobile phone. Unfortunately, a car is not a mobile phone, in that the driver's priority is watching the road ahead and concentrating as much as possible on driving, not staring at the stupid huge screen in the centre. Bravo, Honda.

[@johnc.325]

To be fair, I never look at the screen on my Model 3 to adjust anything; sound I adjust through the button on the wheel, and everything else is voice commands. I thought I'd hate the lack of physical buttons, but it hasn't really an issue at all.

[@fegik5922]

Really refreshing to see a manufacturer actually care about the usability and not force touch everything on us. It is also much safer for us.

I've been very happy/impressed with what I'm seeing here and in the new Civic. It's going to sound silly, but I think I love them mostly because there's no BAD decisions they've made. There's nothing to be frustrated about, and nothing that is going to age poorly.

We have had the most luxurious version (with roof rail) for over 2 years now and our experience with consumption is: 1:20 on the motorway at 100-110 km/h and 1:25 up to 80 km/h roads. Provided you control the foot pedal normally and don't want to run off like a Max Verstappen.

[@ZGI]

Best fuel economy so Far. This car is heavily underrated by all the reviewers out there. And its a Honda. Heavy petrol head here, i drive tested many of them before i bought one, from the likes of CX30, Toyota RAV4 ,Corolla Cross, CH-R Renault Austral, Alfa Tonale, Hyundai Tucson, Qashqai etc.. all of them hybrids except the CX30 186 Skyactiv X. -The HR-V was by Far the most refined (the Civic and ZR-V , CR-V are the only ones better though) , it has alot of space, noone will mention the luggage space beneath the back seats, which i would say is more then 100l , since there is a big hole underneat them (which are also called "magic" and can be raised). Space on the rear seats is like in Mercedes S Class, nothing i mean nothing comes close from those cars mentioned above. The space behind in the trunk is not really 320 liters, its is far more and also if you count the volume space that can go up till glass its plus, and not to forget there is a large socket in the trunk aswell, + its a flat space when you put your seats down, campers can sleep here with 180cm length . Also Few things to mention -The fuel economy is so great, in city around 2.8-3l without special treat, 3.8l during 100kmh, 5.5 during 120kmh, on 130kmh it is around 6.9 (the CX30 is better on highways) -The performance is around 8.8 to 0-100kmh alot quicker then stated, and is faster them most of the cars in this segment to 80, only the Hyundai Tucson HEV with 260hp feels quicker. -The sound isolation and especially the comfort is AMAZING, PLEASE DO NOT listen to those reviewers out there complaining about the noise, they don't have a CLUE what they are talking about. Maybe they drive Porsche taycans far too often or they just hit the pedal till the medal all the time... Only and i mean ONLY if you 100% throttle heavy foot accelerating on Sport mode (on eco is quiter but slower) the noise from the engine complaining is obvious and many don't know that the models from 2023 and 2024 have better insulation then the previous versions from 2021, which contributes to 10kgs heavier car weight. And for that 100% throttle , well lets be real you will be doing this only to impress or showcase the car, i would say Less then 1-5% of the time, since if you want to pass a car in your line, on a highway or uphil the electric motor by itself with 50% throttle is MORE then fast and the engine will be relatively quiet the e-cvt managing the noise, and if you lift your leg even 5% off the throttle it immedietely silences the roaring so you will get used to that play and you won't loose much acceleration. I cannot imagine how this car is so cheap compared to other ones in B or C segment. And the looks aswell... in the Sunlight White premium, it turns every 3rd head around, it's just Nuts how it attracts attention, maybe people don't know what it is or there are too few of them... You won't have that in Sportage or RAV4 or Tucson trust me .. (if you care about that, which i find it to be uncomfortable)

Great review! Thank you. Particularly that you took it onto the autobahn and let us see/hear the engine working, which so many reviewers are negative \about.

Not a biggest fan of small city SUV-s, but Honda completely nailed with this one.

[@kingneptune886]

Yes, they're usually not great quality in comparison to the hatch at the exact price but this may be bucking that trend. Interesting to see what they do with the American HRV which is more closely related to the new Civic.

[@EM.1.]

"It's a simple design, but it just WORKS" ---too good. Tom, my only suggestion is to get a laser measuring tape.

[@columbiars]

Somehow I'm in love with this little SUV.

[@smiddlehurst1]

Have the same powertrain in the Jazz and got to say it's been fantastic so far. Regularly returns 65mpg on my 90 mile motorway commute, very refined, much quicker than you'd expect in the real world and whatever dark sorcery is going on under the metal it's absolutely seamless to the driver. Oh, and it almost caused me to crash a 320 MSport! Was test driving the Jazz and 3 series back to back (the Jazz won mainly as it *slaughtered* the 3 on ride comfort believe it or not), pulled up at roundabout in the 320, spotted small gap almost identical to one I'd taken a few minutes earlier in the Jazz. Forgot that the Jazz is an EV at low speeds so instant torque compared to the slight lag of the turbo 3... Honda do seem to be on a bit of a hot streak at the moment, looking forward to seeing what the new Civic's like in Euro trim.

[@Markybug-Keira-Cody]

Does the jazz and this have the same underpinnings , like previous models ?

[@colinlambert791]

Hello Thomas, At LAST! well done. Another fantastic review. I have owned mine now for 2 months. One of the first on U.K. roads. A fantastic car. One of the best of the 79 cars I've owned. Cheers, Colin.

I live in the USA, my wife had a 2017 hrv, she just had an accident in it. She is fine, but we had to get a new car. They do not have the new hrv out here yet and the 22 here is almost the same as her 2017. We ended up getting a Honda Insight. The interior is very similar to the hrv you are driving. The gas mileage is really unbelievable, I have gotten 54.8 mpg in the first 1000 miles

have a lot of love for honda's ergonomics and engineering skills (my first 3 cars were honda and acura). if honda could make a full ev version of this hrv with even more space i think it could be a huge winner.

Nice review! I agree with you that capacitive touch is way over used as the industry try to be "cool". For fixed-function buttons, everything should be a mechanical de-bounce switch. Touch should only be used for dynamic prompts and menus.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@michelebicc6983]

Quite interesting vehicle, the eHev system proved to be very efficient in city and “country” driving. Too bad it’s not available with AWD (or “eAWD” like some Toyotas) and not so efficient in highway driving. Thanks Thomas

[@moonsapling]

Agreed. I have a 2017 RAV4 Hybrid with the AWD-i. It has a 67hp electric motor at the back and it makes all the difference in snow. Even if the front wheels are slipping you can feel the rear wheels helping. Never got stuck and Ive been in some nasty situations.

[@BertoniBertone]

This just confirms how great the Jazz is. The only difference is a 60- rather than a 48-pouch battery. Pretty much the drivetrain is pure Jazz but you save over € 5-6k and 180 kilograms over the HRV. I know the styling of the Jazz is a little boring but it encapsulates the ‘spirit of Soichiro’ better than any other Honda passenger car right now…

[@jessietian]

The suspension on Jazz Is not as good as HRV, so it's quite bumpy when the road is not so good. Otherwise I agree with what you said. Jazz cross star actually looks pretty cool. Xxx

[@itswinningwednesdaywithkri2527]

[@stuartkennedy4202]

Quite a few have the full rear bar. Looks good simple but really nice and solid looking. All cars are pretty much the same looking inside and out I would like to see the nav being integrated into the dash rather than stuck on it.

The cost to fill up a Honda civic gas tank just hit $90 so I'm very interested in this new Honda HRV since it's supposedly get amazing mileage. I believe it was 4l/100km.

[@camilstoenescu]

Such a cool cozy car with a practical twist. I really dig the interior and its overall design.

[@kent100ss]

I drove a 2022 Honda HR-V hybrid for my road trip from San Francisco to Yellowstone National Park. I drove over 2100 miles and I average 32MPG for my trip. What I like: camping mode works like wonder when I sleep in it in camping ground when temperature was around 30 degree. It was comfortable to sleep inside while the engine is keeping the temperature around 75 degree. Well equipment with technology: lane centering, blind spot monitor, power seat for both driver and passenger seats, moon roof, Adaptive Cruise Control. What I don’t like: 32MPG is low for a hybrid vehicle. Lane centering is not reliable. Seat is very uncomfortable. It is the worst seat I have tried ever.

Very interesting review. The use of physical controls for the driver is an excellent choice. Touch screens suffer from some disadvantages. The driver will have to divert their attention away from watching the road in order to locate a particular touch screen control. The HRV has many appealing design features, like the lift up rear seats. A most interesting vehicle.

[@aplanetslife]

9:00 Dude, you should sit in my 2019 Honda Accord (same as 2022 except for facelift) . All the features you're praising, up to this moment in the video, are in my car. Mine is 2019 Honda Accord LX 1.5 litre turbo 192hp 30/38mpg CVT 17in fat tires. It's quick agile and eats mountains . The leg room in the back is hyuge , a family starter . great job as always Thomas . there are faster more powerful cars but way more expensive and less mpg and space (and don't look as good). My goal was a small powerful engine with high horsepower and gas mileage. and I got a spacious nimble car, also, with the Accord. (The Accord Touring does 0-60 in 5.2 seconds) my LX is plenty fast and powerful for about 12K less. I saw my LX was listed at top speed 150mph , but in California it has a governor that stops it at 129mph . but when I maxed it to 129 it felt like it could keep going faster.

Could you please compare this to Mazda CX-30? Which one is more fun to drive? Which one would consume less fuel in 80-100km/h. Which interior is more pleasing? Which one has the edge in acceleration, overtaking situations?

[@faeinthebay]

FYI, the CX-30 is a different category. The HR-V is a subcompact crossover while the CX-30 is a compact crossover that competes with the CR-V.

[@tmr3927]

@@faeinthebay I was wondering this. Thank you! Interestingly enough the back seat is TINY in the cx 30. It’s smaller than my 2018 hrv. But the trunk is much smaller in my current car.

[@djc2609]

I've test driven both although it was only for 20 minutes. I found the HR-V to be much better to drive. It has more poke than on paper due to the torque from the electric motor, much better brakes, better ride quality and certainly much easier to drive due to improved visibility all around. CX-30 interior does feel a bit more premium with leather (or leather-like material) across the dashboard but CX-30 infotainment screen is not very good and small. CX-30 also looks like every other Mazda and is known to have very poor air conditioning which is an important factor if you live in warmer climate. CX-30 should have an edge in acceleration above 60km/h for situations like overtaking or merging onto motorway, but around town HR-V felt like it has more usable torque.

[@djc2609]

@@faeinthebay Incorrect. HR-V is more spacious than CX-30 except for the boot. Rear legroom in the HR-V is amazing for the segment it competes in

[@djc2609]

Forgot to add that average fuel consumption for the test vehicles were running at 8.1L/100km for the CX-30 and 5.1L/100km for the HR-V. HR-V will use way less fuel in city driving compared to highway driving while CX-30 will be more efficient in highway driving

[@Markybug-Keira-Cody]

Hello Thomas, it seems you enjoyed the vehicle. I really like and always prefer real exhaust. Not sure if HRV has enough power as acceleration 0-100 is 10,6 or 10.7”. Also top speed is only 170. I think, the main target is fuel economy which does really well. Audi is still using real knobs for climate control. I totally agree, this is very safe when driving. One question please (if you like to answer), if I asked you which steering wheel has better feeling, the HRV or CX-5 you drove recently?Thanks a lot, for this very good presentation

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers! Hm, both good, but Mazda defo has it figured out better with steering feel

[@Panagiotis_Pap]

@@autogefuehl I will test drive and check..Thanks a lot.

Multiple real world tests show under 10 sec (9.5-9.8) acceleration for the HRV in sport mode.

@@clyvejames Thanks a lot, my info comes from Honda Greek website

[@januariusa7847]

Do a comparison of this and the Qashqai

[@Neon8787]

Very interesting vehicle, but it was weird that there wer eno comparisons made to other vehicles.

[@acomoyearwood2716]

So what if you’re driving on 100 and u stop accelerating, are u using gas or the electric motors???

[@yissibiiyte]

Does this new gen have available AWD?

[@autogefuehl]

Nope

[@ferhatfiliz]

Not in Europe yet and I dont know if they will bring it later but in Asia there are 4wd, 1.5 NA and 1.5 Turbo versions other then this 1.5 e-hev front drive only

[@Mamo878]

Confusing since in some markets the 2022 is still the 'old' HR-V.

There's no match between mechanical and touch controls. Mechanical Controls FTW. 👍🏻
