Took delivery of mine last month and I love it. Everything you said in your review was spot on. Refined, quiet, economical has more than enough power for every day use and when did you last get a flat tyre anyway. Personally me in my last car 2 flats in 100K.
What is really insane is that it's four seats and that it's underpowered as a naturally aspirated 1.5l in the base model. There's plenty of room under the bonnet to give it a turbocharger but instead it's a slug that, mechanically, is the same as the 2023 and 2024 models.
Seating capacity was a deal breaker on the previous version, which is why I bought the CX-30. I'm glad the new HR-V doesn't give me buyers remorse. I love this car so much, but 4 seats is crazy.
Yes! Who cares that it’s only a four seater? Agree with what you said and people wanting to squeeze five people into a small car/suv should consider a larger car. This gen HR-V is surprisingly good.
No spare? 4 star ANCAP? Sombre and dark interior Hard dashtop plastics Modest power output S-l-o-w... No A/C vents in the rear No USB in the rear NO THIRD SEAT IN THE REAR! This gonna lose Honda significant sales. If your product doesn't meet market expectations it's going to fail.
I got a Honda HRV Sport 3door back in late 1999 and had it for 5y and I still remember how good and fun it was … I wish I could find one now so my son could learn to drive on one
Lol i tapped on TH-cam and was confused why i saw a carsauce vid and had no notification, then the notification came thru and realised the video had been uploaded 1 second ago😂
Great review as usual. However no planetary gear set in these Honda Hybrids, just to out nerd you. Just one fixed gear with a clutch that engages at certain speeds 😊
Heyy! When you refer to the older HRV, are you referring to the RU3 or the 2021 Honda HRV(UK)? This model is called the RV5. Please let me know. I have a 2023 Honda HRV (RV5) and wanted to know if the features mentioned on this video (PCU etc) are available on mine, or only the face-lifted RV5?
@@CarSauceIn addition to refinement and fuel efficiency, how big is the gap between them in other aspects? For example: acceleration, sound insulation, chassis vibration filtering, suspension support, passability on bad roads, automatic driving, original factory warranty years and mileage? These are the aspects that we, as car owners, care about.
You know this is a paid promotion when the guys says on practicality it gets 10/10, where the car is just 4 seater and no air vents as well for the rear passengers :/ come on guys
DO NOT BUY THE 2024 and 2025 HRV!!! HONDA HAS ISSUED AN EPS RECALL NOTICE. And there are no parts available for the repair. Until Honda Motor Co and all Honda dealerships fix this potentially dangerous steering box issue, DO NOT BUY! There is also a lawsuit against Honda for this issue.

it's a soccer mom car
NA engines are good you know,
Small displacement turbo engines , don't last as long, just ask Scotty Kilmer 😉
@@andrew6526 Oh please he is full of shit
In Malaysia they have NA,Turbo and HEV options tho 🤯
Don't people get punctures anymore? Where are all the spare wheels?
Most punctures are nails and are slow which allows for tyre shops to fix, tyre blow outs are increasingly rare in car tyres nkwdays
The people who buy cars without a spare are too dumb to change a wheel.👌
Potholes
Standing at the side of the m6 most people normally
Yes I hate that about honda. Why the heck do they make models with ought spares!

This is definitely better than the north american variant
My Honda city hybrid in India has same power output which is a smaller car. It is very fuel efficient in sedan
I wish we got this version of the HR-V in Canada
The 2025 Honda HRV doesn't look like this in America. ☹
america has japan zrv
Ours looks so bland compared to this 😕
@@Fabulousprofound168 yeah, I do hope this version comes to the states
this car look so much better, but not available in United States.

Hi @CarSauce can you please tell me when you think you’ll get to review the mg hs? Thanks

omoda 5 gt or HR-V?
No doubt an HR-V is more refined and better on fuel 😁
what exactly are you compariing against? price? performance? driving experience? etc??

Omoda 5gt no brainer
If you want a tried and true vehicle? Honda.

We have fun 👌
At first glance, this looks like a mini Prologue.
honda hrv sport 2025 is 5 seat and heated seats, blind spot, and more in USA
It's just huge
Safety rating wise this is only a 4 star car period.
You know this is a paid promotion when the guys says on practicality it gets 10/10, where the car is just 4 seater and no air vents as well for the rear passengers :/
come on guys
The top spec has rear air vents if you need them 😊
B stands for brake.😁 Thanks for this review
B is for Braking (extra regen) on my Note Nismo S
Yes😄
Why is it always raining at the location you do most of the reviews it's almost like you have found the wet spot of Australia 😜
Did just bro just say e:HEV, EEHEFF??
The 2025 usa models dont look like that and i dont think we have the hybrid either
Honda is close to extinct in Australia based on sales figures.
I've seen a few of these around, so either this car might save them or it's too little too late
i am starting to see a lot more zr-v's on the road now.
Sales fell 45% in China and in EU it's outside top 20 best sellers. ASEAN sales also tanking. The company will go extinct
Review BE 6E and XEV 9e
Kia seltos , vitara , Corolla crooss or this?
tiggo 7 pro better
A 4 seater... total deal breaker.
It was really ugly and the inside was very old.
XC GXL green…

If I needed a new vehicle, I think I'd give this one consideration.
I wont buy a car wiyhout a spare wheel.
Did you lads take 40k to favour a BYD?
Haha we weren’t offered anywhere near that 😆
@ but they paid “influencers” to be there right?
@@maxbett8845no different from car journalists paid to attend
The "B" stands for "Recuperation", but since "R" was already taken they just picked a letter at random.
No B stands for brake in hybrids
@Car-l4f oh okay thank you
