Ah yes..the NSX we reviewed was the first mark, the V6 VTEC: around 7.5 seconds 0-60, so it fits that this HR-V does do 0-60 mph (not kph) in around 8 seconds! There’s about half a second in it, but the new one can hit it in just 3.5 seconds...We cannot wait to review that NSX (sigh!) Glad you liked the review, Bit! 👍
I don’t think the panoramic roof is available on the HRV Sport. Spec is very similar to the Civic Sport except more comfortable and it has the magic seats.
This is just a great car i really like Honda. Only thing i dont like is the fact that the infotainmentsystem is outdated and the back camera could be better.
You mentioned it has the option of apple car play and Android auto. Fairly sure that is incorrect, you get it in the USA and maybe other territories but not the UK
@@PlanetautoUK interesting. Think I'd read that review too but then read others all saying it doesn't get it. The Honda webpage and spec list makes no mention of it and went to a Honda garage 2 days ago and was told by the sales person that it doesn't come on the hrv. Then there's hrv forums that claim it isn't there and rumour is Honda UK didn't want to pay apple to licence it. Confusing!
@@PlanetautoUK dont suppose you managed to find anything in your b roll did you? I mean I should find out myself soon enough as theMrs has 1 on order from stock due to arrive soon
Neil Allen apologies, typically I can’t find anything in the b roll of the smartphone connected and the latest spec sheet still has no mention, maybe it’s been withdrawn from that model, sorry we can’t help more we have the new Jazz next week if that has it - this will be a real conundrum - ps it does say on the new Jazz brochure Apple and Android - here’s hoping you get it
Much better car than the Nissan qashqai, had a diesel one on hire a few months ago felt cheap and nasty compared to the HRV. Maybe unpopular to say but the manual diesel is the pick of the bunch, great little engine.
Had a good laugh at the 0.3 seconds 0-60 slower than the NSX, I think thats KPH vs MPH, otherwise a good review thanks.

Ex has the pano roof.

It is, and yes and an HD camera would be a worthy edition the infotainment will likely change with the intro of the new Jazz
I wish they have the awd manual in America.
That would seem the perfect model for you guys, wonder why there isn’t one, mind you, you have the Ridgeline, we don’t 😮

Ours did, it’s standard on the HRV 2019 in the UK - this also confirms it www.autoexpress.co.uk/honda/hr-v

That is confusing, il check some of our b roll and see if we have it in action, thank you

I hope they already fix the oil dilution problem on this 1.5 L turbo,
Interesting, not heard of this thanks for your insight
There's been a ECU software update to help reduce dilution. Avoiding short journeys when the engine doesn't get fully warmed up too.
Great review - I have a Jazz but am thinking about trading up.
Glad you liked it, Ambienfinity! 👍 what’s next on the cards another Honda?

It is good
Excellent review. Substance over style 👍
Thank you
What type of suspension do they use in the rear of this car?
Torsion on non sport, and performance dampers on sport, it has a bespoke steering system too.
Great review! Thank you.
Glad you liked it, Angus 👍 *Annabelle
Does this not come with a spare wheel?
Sadly not, no option either from Honda, thank you
No rear air vents. Eh thats okay.
It’s amazing how the rear interior varies between models and manufacturers *ben
I'm definitely getting the HRV Sport. I just wish it came with a panoramic sunroof so it'd be perfect. Hopefully in the future they become standard.
It’s amazing how much more a panoramic adds, mind you, there’s lots to keep you entertained in this sporty number, thank you Jey *B
Can you compare it with Subaru 1.6i XV?
We’ll see what we can do, thank you Damir
