The 2023 Honda HR-V was introduced to the market earlier this year and it brought with it a long list of significant improvements that make the Honda entry-level SUV that much more appealing for consumers. The brand-new Honda HR-V shines by providing impressive interior space combined with a vastly improved powertrain that blends more performance and better efficiency. Add to that a lot more safety, comfort, and connectivity technologies, and the new HR-V has everything you want in your next small SUV.
Starting at $28,730, the 2023 Honda HR-V is powered out of the gate by a new 2 L 4-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. This is quite an improvement over the previous HR-V engine which was a 1.8-litre 4-cylinder powertrain with 141 horsepower. The resulting increase in performance makes the HR-V one of the most powerful small SUVs in its class, but it also means you benefit from quicker accelerations and improved passing performance which in turn significantly enhances the driving experience behind the wheel. The new 2023 Honda HR-V can also adapt to different conditions thanks to new driving modes which are offered. The driver can choose between Normal, Eco, and Snow modes in order to personalise the driving experience and optimise it for the conditions and situation.
Despite offering more power, the 2023 Honda HR-V is still just as fuel-efficient as ever. This model was already one of the most efficient vehicles in its class, and it is even better with this new generation. It features an average fuel consumption rating of 9.1 L per 100 km in the city, and 7.4 litres per 100 km on the highway in the entry-level FWD model. If you choose a Honda HR-V with all-wheel drive, the fuel economy increases just slightly to a combined average of 8.7 L per 100 km. In other words, the fuel economy of the HR-V is simply remarkable.
It’s even more impressive to realise how efficient the HR-V is when we see how spacious it is. The model has grown in size with a wheelbase that is extended by 45 mm while the overall cargo area can accommodate nearly 700 litres with all seats in place.
In other words, the 2023 Honda HR-V stands out where it matters most while also delivering even more impressive safety technologies with an improved Honda Sensing system. The HR-V also offers more comfort technology with a larger 9-inch centre display available in certain models. Give us a call today to learn more.
