Used 2023 Honda HR-V Sport 2WD

Drew Doran, with CARandDRIVER, wrote Honda has given its 2023 HR-V a complete makeover to combat the onslaught of desirable and stylish small SUVs that have flooded the market. The outgoing generation was practical and offered good value but it lagged the segments best in almost every way. No surprise then that the new HR-V looks totally different from the outgoing model. The new HR-V shares its platform with the Civic and uses a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter inline-four from Hondas compact sedan. The new generation is wider and longer, which Honda claims benefits interior space. Independent rear suspension replaces the old models torsion beam setup, a change that promises to improve ride and handling. The new model also receives updated infotainment features and more modern driver-assistance technology. The HR-V adopts a more modern interior design inspired by the redesigned Civics—It is both classic and attractive. The front seats are comfortable and supportive while providing a wide range of adjustments. Honda claims that the new models cargo bay is larger and that lift-over height has been reduced to aid with loading heavy items. Of the three trims, we think the Sport makes the most sense, and we appreciate its slightly more aggressive exterior styling and it is the only trim that comes with 18-inch wheels, the largest offered. Fuel economy estimates are highest on front-wheel-drive models, which are rated at 26 mpg city and 32 mpg highway.
