The HR-V has a hard time standing out among small SUVs and crossovers, partly because of generic styling, a single engine option (2.0-litre four-cylinder unit rated at 158 horsepower) and the loss of the practical Magic Seat in the second row. Oh, and the HR-V’s high prices don’t help, either. On the other hand, anyone will tell you the interior is nicely designed and ergonomic. Another thing customers appreciate about the HR-V is reliability.
Pros
- Well-designed and ergonomic interior
- Exemplary safety
- Reputation of reliability
Cons
- High prices
- Modest performance
- We miss the Magic Seat back seat
