2024 Honda HR-V EX-L Review - Is This The Trim To Buy?

- Sometimes you can get away with purchasing a mid-tier trim where you receive the desired features and overall comfort. The 2024 Honda HR-V EX-L might be your best option, as the leather trimmed seats, power moonroof, dual zone climate control, and 9 inch touchscreen all come together to make this subcompact crossover appealing. While the 2024 HR-V is a little underpowered, it offers plenty of practicality and interior space to make a great family vehicle on a budget.
Huge thank you to Atamian Honda in Tewksbury, MA for providing the 2024 Honda HR-V EX-L for this review.

This is a really good video! Especially the test drive part. Many others are tough on the power of the engine. I felt this was honest, without insulting the pickup. Thank you!
Lots of people equate not enough power with acceleration. The power is adequate. Keep in mind, years ago Civics and Corollas in their Sport trim only had about 130 horsepower.
There's 2 $300 aftermarket add ons to improve performance. The K Tuner flash CPU calibration fir tge Civic Sport with the sane engine, or the simpler plug and play Pedal Commander that has several variable settings to improve or alter throttle response, and does not alter the CPU and potentially void the warranty and can be easily removed.
Best HR-V review I have seen to date.
I just purchased a 2024 Honda HR-V EX-L AWD, (Modern Steel Dark Gray Metallic/Black Leather) and love it! I just wish Honda had more color choices for the HR-V's! As well as the engine had more power!
I JUST put down a deposit for the exact same one today. Same color and everything. 🙌🏼 So glad to hear you love it because they didn't have one on the lot for me to drive.
thank you! your review pushed our decision over the top. Its fits exactly what we are looking for
Very honest comprehensive review, diplomatically presented. 😊
Just got one and upgraded from 22 civic - it’s the same acceleration as a civic sport 2022 due to same horsepower and engine. These people comparing have never test driven this car. Y’all have no idea what you’re talking about it accelerates perfectly fine, it’s not a damn race car. It’s a mini tank that is safe and reliable which is what most people look for in a car- go get the type R if you’re complaining about acceleration and HP lol - and older Honda may have been more power but the new 4 cylinders are so good and efficient they use less power compared to older Hondas. 😂
Bought it in Crystal Black Pearl EX-L edition today. I love the car and have not experienced the power and speed issues everyone is talking about. It was able to go to 60mph on the highway quickly and I got it up to 80mph fast.
I had the prior HR-V and this newer one is so much more engaging. I think more and most people who’ve experienced the last HR-V will appreciate this new one very well.
Impossible to grt the same one in December. This is good to know
How's the gas mileage?
@@caitlindulas8281 The gas mileage is good on the HR-V and CR-V. It’s real nice to pull up to a gas station and all you need is the lowest grade octane gas. 87 or 86.
I picked Hr-v after watching this video. Thanks!
Great 👍🏼 review #Honda 🏁
I had 8200 equity in my 20 Fit EX. I had a 19 accord touring hybrid I had to sell in my divorce. I wanted a accord ex for 23. My car insurance was going to go up by 445 for 6 months. The Civic was 440 more over 6 months. The lowest at 235 more was the HRV. Accords and Civics are stolen more and very expensive to repair. I bought a 24 HRV EXL blind spot just on the cheaper insurance. I paid 29K, no mark ups, put 2K more down. My Fit was 330. My HRV is 342 a month. I financed 20500. Don’t over pay for a car or insurance. I really wanted another accord but not paying that more for insurance.
Apr 12, 2024. I have had mine one week. What can I say. The car I replaced was a Mini Cooper. Some dumb ass ran his truck right into my Mini Cooper, at a 90° angle near the drivers door hinge, going about 35 MPH. My car was totaled. I could tell right off driving this car was wonderful compared to the Mini Cooper. You could not talk to your passenger because of all the tire and road noise, in that car. For this type of car, and the price, it was the difference of night and day. Dave in Sierra Vista AZ
It’s actually a really practical smart investment. Particularly if you’re buying one as a first car for a son or daughter, or even your wife.😊
Because your wife isn't capable of picking out and buying her own car??? ugh, this is why I never got married!!
@@bettysmith4527 Typical Democratic response🙄
Actually I not in the least bit of a democrat, just a woman that laughs at men who think in this day and age they still need to pick out a car for their wife and buy it!! It's just totally laughable! @@Cornbread-gi6kt
with this being bigger do you really need a crv?
Someday, I buy the new 2024 Honda HR-V.
No. You certainy will not.
Insane Honda HR-V!
Why isn’t there a hybrid model here in the US?
I'll take an Urban Grey Pearl FWD Sport over the EX-L, despite the extra options. No Bose stereo, I don't like the sunroof unless I want everything else, like if I got a Civic Sport Touring Hatchback. I preferred the reliable manual adjust seats and everything the Sport has.
I live in Honolulu, HI, so I don't need the extra cost and slower acceleration of the AWD. Equipped with all the factory options and accessories I want, it comes out to about $30K.
The Sport I believe has slightly stiffer suspension and steering, plus the bigger, wider wheels and tires. If I don't like what body roll it has, I would get the slightly lowered and stiffer Eibach springs.
The HR-V does have all LED lighting, including the reverse and rear signal lights, exterior mirror turn signal, two cargo hatch lights and two rear ceiling touch capacitive LED lights
Honda specifically chose this reliable N/A 2.0L engine for its target consumer demographic. Many complain about the lack of power, but often equate that to acceleration.
This is a compact SUV for the masses who want an alternative to the Civic, is is not a Sport oriented top trim model like a Sport Touring, which the could release in the future, or an Si. But there are two $300 aftermarket options. A flash tune from K Tuner, and a plug and play Pedal Commander to improve throttle response control, with lots of variable settings and can be easily installed and removed.
It's hard to beat the ride/steering feel and quality co pared to its competitors, especially since it has independent rear suspension.
All the talk about the Civic and HR-V lacking things other cars have for less do not have the quality, reliability, durability and especially longevity the Civic and HR-V has, especially with this engine. They could make a Sport Touring or SI, but it would be a cost factor up to the corporate and marketing people to decide feasibility.
Except for those looking for a Sport Touring Trim like the Civic Hatchback, the three trims address the mainarket groups that would want this vehicle.
I have a long list of things I already will add after the OEM options and accessories to make it perfect for what I need and want.
Your post is entirely too long. Please keep future posts brief.
@cgmiddle Is this your video channel? I don't see why you would have the notion for telling me how long my comment should be.
If you don't like reading it, because you think it's too long, just ignore it and scroll down and move along. Nothing here to see here for you, momona okole.
I hope HRV 2025 will be better with much much engine (S) power…. We need a new hybrid versions…. Hello please it’s 2025…. We need more hybrid vehicles…cool dude cool video…
I have a 2014 crv which isn’t a power machine by any means. So this would probably work
We have a 2018 EX-L-Navi and a 2024 EX-L and love them both, but they're not powerful at all. The newer one is noticeably better but compared to the 4 cylinder 2012 and 2003 Accords we have, they're both horrible.
I know everyone tries to say the power is adequate but come on, let's be honest, it's awful. In a future model if Honda puts a 2.4 liter engine with a REAL transmission, they will fly off the dealer's lots. I'll sell ours and upgrade for sure. But for now, excluding the power, everything in the EX-L is perfect. It's a really well put together vehicle.
blind spot monitoring should be standard on all levels especially in 2024 Is there a cover for the back?
I kinda agree about blind spot monitoring but to be fair you get a lot for the money even without it. And if you mean a cargo cover it’s an option
Give me all the goodiessss features from civic touring to hrv pleaseeee
We need a better HRV hybrid with better engine power…. Please Honda made a better HRV hybrid and better features … better Torque, etc, etc, … cool video…
3:35, this vehicle does have full LED head lights and tail lights, so you said that wrong I believe, otherwise a great video and I like your narrative.
why i feel they upgrade backwards??
The HRV does have LED headlights.
They are thinking about trying to maintain overall quality levels at a price point . To move up … you go to the CRV Hybrid . Which is quite expensive . To get a higher performance small SUV … go German or Lexus . Honda knows their market . Of course a bit more power is always welcome . But it always costs . I find with Hondas that enough power is there if you put your foot down . These are not sports cars .
would be nice if they offer the 1.5t for a bit more omp
@@tinhinnh They specifically used this engine for the longevity and dependability, which was Hondas's intention for this vehicle. If they decide to add a Sport Touring trim like the Civic Hatchback, they could if they wanted to, and felt it was feasible for production and added costs, they could, but corporate decisions have their own agenda. And as stated, this is not intended to be a performance vehicle. But being similar to a Honda Civic, if the owner wants more performance, there's the aftermarket.
@@tinhinnhI’m glad it doesn’t have a turbo. The turbo engines have issues with reliability.
@@natalie2070keep believing that lol
@@jjacob25101so they don’t want their other models to be as dependable as this one?
I have a 2020 Sport trim which is a pretty decent vehicle except for the engine which is underpowered. Even though the new model has the more powerful Civic engine it's still underpowered. Don't know what the hell Honda was thinking on this one.
Reliability and longevity. I plan to get the Pedal Commander for this. It should work with the one for the Civic Sport with this engine. Easy to plug in or remove when you want.
They could come out with a Sport Touring, or even an Si, if Corporate and Marketing feels it is worth doing. But of course, it would cost more.
It’s still underpowered vehicle…. We need a better versions… cool video…
I disagree. This vehicle definitely rivals top contenders for the cheap and disposable vehicle look.
Sluggish CVT , put a 6 or 8 speed auto in this vehicle.........

🌑🖤🌑 HR-V 🌑🖤🌑
. 👁️🗿👁️ 💣 🏁 .

Damn the HRV in the US is really ugly huh
Cvt.. no, no!!!
Why so WORDY. Is this a review. Or is it an essay. Cut the crap. Tell us about the car.
It’s an essay…
The HR-V is worst in class with engine, fuel economy and technology. Honda matches that with cheap interiors, uncomfortable seats that feel like cloth on cardboard. The HR-V isn’t even a worthy daily driver. The poor styling and knockoff Ford Escape look it carries. It’s just a terrible overpriced sub compact.
so what lol. i love this vehicle. its definitely an upgrade over my 06 toyota matrix lol
