My first HR-V!

Love this car! Especially since it has a CD player. That was very important to me. All the other models did not have that feature.

This small SUV was fun to drive.

I liked the HRV and was surprised at how roomy it was. The rear area accommodated a weather tech cargo mat previously for a Ford Escape. The all wheel drive handled all of our New England weather.

Such a good combination of Safety & Reliability

The visibility is so improved with the HRV in addition to the ability to handle inclement weather conditions... The vehicle is attractive and able to carry children and cargo as necessary...The added height of the vehicle also makes loading and unloading groceries and parcels an easier chore...As a Honda the reliability factor is top notch...

Problems with HRV's make me regret my purchase

When you purchase a brand new car for $27,000 you don't expect problems! 10 months into driving my HRV it started making a grinding/vibration sound when you accelerated at about 35mph. After taking it in to the place of purchase they told me there was no fix for the car but Honda was aware of it. After doing research I was appalled to see how many customers were complaining about the same issue...not only on the 2017's but all the other years!! IT TOOK OVER A YEAR FOR A BULLETIN TO BE RELEASED ABOUT A FIX. It seems to be working now so hopefully that has been taken car of. BUT the blue tooth capability is horrendous with my IPhone. When I call out there is an echo that is unbearable. Honda is aware of it but no fix?!?!? Don't bother with this car...not worth the headaches I've had with it.

I've totally enjoyed this car from day one

Handles very well, just enough room for my needs. USB ports a little tricky to get to but otherwise the instrument panel is well set up.

1st Honda.

This car meets my needs and is good on gas (very important). Has a slow take off, but it's a 4 cylendar. I don't like nonelctric seats nor not having wireless charging. Otherwise, I like it (so far).
