Honda ZR-V review - Posh Tall Civic

Honda rarely launches a completely new model, but that's exactly what the ZR-V is and it's really good. If you've been following the channel, you know I'm not the biggest fan of crossovers, and I criticize them for their lackluster driving dynamics, pointless height, and the extra weight that they have to carry around compared to their hatchback counterparts. However, in the case of the ZR-V, none of that is really true-it drives great, uses little fuel, and has a better, fancier-looking interior than the Civic it's based on.

Bought a ZR-V e:HEV 6 weeks ago and just finished a 1500k road trip from Canberra to Melbourne and return. All on highway with 110k speed limit and average 5.4l/100k. In 2500k since new I'm averaging 5.2l/100k

That's impressive; the same kind of figures you would achieve with a diesel vehicle.

Yep I got mine 2 weeks before Christmas. I did 5000km in 3 weeks driving Melbourne to Gold Coast and back. It was averaging 4.8L. All the way to Albury coz it's so flat. Once into NSW it went up a bit to 5.4L as it started to get a bit hilly. Got to Syd without the petrol light going on then went from Syd-Gold Coast a few days later with about 180km of range still available on the dashboard.

Ugly looking front grille👎

[@OneTireFire]

I think it looks a bit like a Mercedes grille-Honda was going for a premium look with this one. I quite like it. Maybe you'll like it better in person.

We are waiting, anxiously, in the US for a hybrid HR-V or this.

[@OneTireFire]

I’ve reviewed the hybrid HR-V on the channel and had much nicer things to say about it, although my fav Honda crossover these days is the ZR-V :D

Do you have a cracked front glass?

[@OneTireFire]

@@marcin4801 Yeah. Windscren has since been replaced.

[@marcin4801]

@@OneTireFire Why did the glass break?

My zr-v advance in radiant red will be delivered in two weeks. I saw the car in that red color in the showroom, looking shiney and elegant, really posh... It took my attention immediatly. Than i opened the doors and that classy and quality cosy interior...just wow....and that hybrid technique that Honda is using....i was sold within 10 minutes in the showroom.

[@OneTireFire]

Yeah, I was sure it had this effect on people :) I really loved the interior, which looks and feels way nicer than in the Civic it's based on. Nice color choice also.

the rear camera does give you the choice pf 3 different views which is pretty good and all zrv trims include both front and rear parking sensors as well
