2023 Honda HR-V Prices, Reviews, and Pictures | Edmunds
Honda's smallest SUV, the HR-V, has been known to pack a ton of utility and clever features into a compact package. And for 2023 it's been completely redesigned. It's larger, more refined and more sophisticated-looking inside and out. But the extra-small SUV segment has gained some impressive offerings of late, and we're afraid the new HR-V hasn't evolved enough to compete with the best.

2023 model kicks off the second HR-V generation
Overview
The HR-V is Honda's smallest crossover SUV, and it slots beneath the stalwart CR-V, Passport and Pilot in Honda's lineup. The first generation of the HR-V was based on the Honda Fit hatchback and made its North American debut in 2016. Now, seven model years later, there is an all-new HR-V for 2023, and Honda's littlest SUV has grown in almost every possible way.
Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2023 Honda HR-V LX 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.49 per gallon for regular unleaded in Virginia.
Keen followers of the Honda brand will realize that the Fit is no longer in production, and that means this new HR-V is no longer based on the Fit. It is instead based on the larger Civic, which means the new HR-V is roomier than its predecessor, particularly in the back seat. Unfortunately, the trick storage solution made famous by the previous HR-V is gone in this iteration. Honda's so-called Magic Seat, which let users flip up the rear seat bottoms to store tall items on the floor, is no more. It's a bummer because that feature differentiated the HR-V from the rest of the class.
With a new generation of HR-V comes a new generation of tech, and this model has a similar setup to that of the new Civic. The standard size for the central screen is 7 inches, but the EX-L has a 9-inch unit. Both screens support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, but only the EX-L allows you to go wireless. Unlike the Civic, the HR-V does not offer an integrated navigation system, so you'll be out of luck if you venture off the beaten path in an area without cell service.
The engine for the 2023 HR-V is probably the least "new" thing about it. It's a non-turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that makes 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. Those new figures represent bumps of 17 hp and 11 lb-ft from the previous HR-V's engine, but we had hoped for a bit more power given the model's larger size.
Honda expects the HR-V to be an entry-level model for SUV shoppers and pitches it against rivals such as the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Mazda CX-30, Toyota Corolla Cross and Volkswagen Taos. We think it will satisfy shoppers looking for a useful small SUV, though its rivals can do the same, and sometimes with a little more personality. Read our test team's Expert Rating below to learn more about the new HR-V's biggest hits and misses.

edmunds TESTED
Honda's smallest SUV, the HR-V, has been known to pack a ton of utility and clever features into a compact package. And for 2023 it's been completely redesigned. It's larger, more refined and more sophisticated-looking inside and out. But the extra-small SUV segment has gained some impressive offerings of late, and we're afraid the new HR-V hasn't evolved enough to compete with the best.
How does the HR-V drive? Our first driving impressions of the HR-V were mixed. We didn't love the artificial feeling of the slightly overly light steering but got used to it over time. The engine and transmission also felt relatively adequate while tooling around at town at low speeds but utterly gutless once you have passengers on board and are trying to makes moves at highway speeds. In fact, the HR-V requires more than 10 seconds to accelerate to 60 mph, which is leisurely even for this class.
The HR-V's most redeeming qualities are its smooth and responsive brakes and tidy handling. Even as one of the larger SUVs is the extra-small class, the HR-V delivers relatively light-footed movement that Hondas are typically known for.
Comfort
7.5/10
How comfortable is the HR-V? The HR-V's front seat cushions are shockingly stiff. It's almost like sitting on a wooden bench. There is also no lumbar support adjustment, which is surprising and disappointing, especially on our fully loaded test car. It's rare that we find the rear seats to be more comfortable than the fronts, but that holds true for the HR-V. Thankfully things get better from here.
Ride comfort is great. The HR-V doesn't filter out all road bumps, but it does an admirable job of softening them without being overly floaty or lacking in body control. We also appreciate how quiet the cabin is. The HR-V does a good job of keeping road, wind and ambient noise to minimal levels, and if you aren't prodding the engine for speed, you don't hear much from the powertrain either.
The climate control had no issues cooling the cabin, but it oddly maintained too cold a temperature for our tastes in any setting we chose. Perhaps it's to help compensate for the lack of rear air vents, another strike against the HR-V's overall comfort score.

How’s the interior? Putting aside the few comfort oversights, the interior of the HR-V is one of its greatest strengths. For one, it's one of the roomiest cabins in this SUV class, with ample space in both rows. We found it extremely easy to get in and out of thanks to larger door openings and accessible seat heights.
Honda's new touchscreen interface, which is making its way into many of the new models, is easy to acclimate to and simple to use. The steering wheel controls are also very natural to operate, and none of the gauges are obstructed or oddly placed. Seat adjustments for the driver are relatively limited in breadth, but the adjustments that are available offer a good range of motion. We also like how easy it is to see out of the cabin in all directions. Honda doesn't offer a surround-view camera system, but the rearview camera offers multiple viewing angles, which is a plus.
Technology
7.0/10
How’s the tech? Technology is not strong suit for the HR-V. We see the reason for forgoing a native navigation system in lieu of smartphone integration, which the HR-V does, but it's always a nice option for those who prefer it. The HR-V offers wireless CarPlay and Android Auto with wireless connectivity (a nice plus at this price point), a wireless charging pad, and three USB charge ports in the front cabin. But those will have to be shared with rear passengers because there are oddly no ports in the back. Audiophiles will likely be underwhelmed by the HR-V's sound system too.
The HR-V features a pretty comprehensive set of driver aids, but a lot of them are tuned too conservatively. Adaptive cruise control is slow to accelerate and stops overreactively, and the blind-spot warning system often issued alerts for vehicles that we thought were too far away. We couldn't really use them with passengers on board.
Storage
8.0/10
How’s the storage? The ability to haul stuff is important for an SUV, and the HR-V is among the top in its class when it comes to that. The rear cargo area feels more generous than its numbers suggest (24.4 cubic feet) since the space is very usable and easily accessible. The rear seatbacks can also be folded virtually flat with the cargo floor to facilitate transport of longer items. And if you have car seats to install, it's a breeze. Generous rear legroom, large doors, and easy-to-access LATCH anchors and top tethers all help to make your life easier. One small caveat: There is no top tether for the middle position, so front-facing car seats have to be installed in an outboard seat.
Storage for small items in the cabin is pretty good but not great. We like the rubberized bridge compartment behind the shifter, where you can store a smartphone for charging, and the center armrest bin is fairly deep. Otherwise door pockets are fairly small and the glovebox average. We're also a bit bummed Honda did away with the cool and clever rear flip-up seat bottoms (aka Magic Seat).
Fuel Economy
7.0/10
How’s the fuel economy? The all-wheel-drive HR-V gets an EPA-estimated 27 mpg in combined driving (25 city/30 highway), which is just marginally less than many of its closest competition, some of which have more powerful engines. After driving it on our 115-mile evaluation loop, however, we saw an impressive 31.6 mpg under fairly light traffic conditions. We suspect having passengers on board will tax this underpowered engine more than most.
Value
7.5/10
Is the HR-V a good value? Honda did a great job of putting the money where it counts with the HR-V interior. All the touch points are soft or cushioned, and the controls feel like they have a nice quality to them. Aesthetically this is also a big step up from the previous car and a strong showing relative to the rest of the class. Pricing for the HR-V is also surprisingly competitive, with our top-level model coming in at just over $30K, which is less expensive than a lot of competitors. The big fly in the ointment, however, is the HR-V's anemic powertrain. And with no other engine options, it's hard for us to call this a well-rounded package for the money.
Honda's warranty remains fairly unremarkable compared to what other manufacturers offer. The HR-V has three years/36,000 miles of basic and five years/60,000 miles of powertrain coverage.
Wildcard
7.0/10
If there's a world where Honda makes its excellent 1.5-liter turbo engine available to the HR-V, that's a world we'd want to live in. Until then the HR-V will likely remain lost among a sea of other more interesting subcompact SUVs. As far as design goes, the car has definitely matured over its predecessor and sports a much more substantial and upmarket feel. But it also doesn't break any new ground in our eyes. It's ... safe.
Which HR-V does Edmunds recommend?
Go for the HR-V Sport for the best value. It has some extra features over the base LX that you'll appreciate having over the long run, such as a leather-wrapped steering wheel and heated front seats. The EX-L is nice, but for the price you might consider a base CR-V instead.
Honda HR-V models
The 2023 Honda HR-V is available in three trim levels: LX, Sport and EX-L.

First, I'd like to say these reviews saying it lacks power are not true. It has a CVT transission, which is not noisy, but makes it a smoother ride where you don't feel the trasmission shifting, maybe this is mistaken for lack of power. Not a sporty race car, but plenty of power for merging and hills. I'm at 80 mph before I know it. The transmission sound takes a bit to get used to … because it doesn't shift, but it's not bothersome. Gets you in and out of traffic, easily. Drives and handles very well. Goes through snow easily - we live in the snowbelt and it has performed well. Lots of room. hough I do get other drivers flashing their brights - I don't care I can see really well. The headlights are fantastic, altNow for the bad.
I don't like the Hankook tires that came with it, but that's because in my experience, they don't last. The seats are hard and uncomfortable. The backup camera is close to useless - it's always obstructed by snow or rain and doesn't have good vision in the dark. I hate the postion and type of fuel gauge, it's very hard to see and read. It'll look like it reads 1/4 tank, then the low fuel light comes on. The radio gets very poor reception and no cd player. I don't like all the added technological features, I don't care if it has Apple Car Play. The manual that comes with the car is lengthy and in fine print. The outside mirrors are too small.
We looked at several other vehicles. A lot of dealerships were charging over MSRP or making up abbreviations trying to take advantage of the customers. Even at Honda dealerships. we were having a hard time finding an honest dealer. Our local dealership, Victory Honda in Austinburg, Ohio, wanted @$5000 over MSRP and tried to lowball us on our trade-in. We call Apostalikis Honda in Cortland and they gave us MSRP plus a good price on trade-in. We saved close to $8000. So, don't accept these dishonest dealerships. Honda should do something about this thievery. All-in-all, we felt it was the best value out there, and we really liked how it handled. Also, we've always had good luck with Hondas, and we feel confident in their dependability. Everyday mixed driving we get almost 31 mpg.
Huge Improvement over previous HR-V
5 out of 5 stars
DJL, 01/01/2023
2023 Honda HR-V EX-L 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
The 2023 HR-V is a major improvement over the 2020 HR-V I owned. The ride is better, the engine has more HP and the interior looks was more upscale than the previous version. With the EX-L, along with the normal safety features, it also comes with parking sensors, low speed braking and blind spot monitoring. The rear view mirror is also auto dimming. The 8 speaker sound system is … adequate. It is also nice that the EX-L comes with a power drivers seat. All things considered, I am very happy I upgraded to the 2023.
Not comparable with 2022 HR-V in any way
5 out of 5 stars
Sebastian Gata, 12/16/2022
2023 Honda HR-V LX 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
Over the summer I purchased a 2023 HR-V LX. Coming from a Honda Pilot V6, I had to lower my expectations with power but it is actually pretty quick on the highway once you are up to speed. A bit slow from 0-20 mph but hey, it is a four cylinder CVT SUV, I can't demand too much from it. The styling is great in my opinion. If you told me 4 years ago this would be an Acura product, I would … believe you 100%. The color combo I have is white exterior and beige interior. The cloth is very nice and heavy duty, but can get dirty. I am never lacking for any room, very comfortable in any seat and I am 6'1. The suspension is very well calibrated. It is Always nice and composed for a small SUV. The infotainment is good as well. The speakers are good for a base model. One thing that I don't particularly like is the adaptive cruise control. I come from an old car with regular cruise control and I would prefer that any day of the week over the adaptive one. Even on the closest following distance it is very aggressive. It starts braking and then rides the brakes for a bit until the car infront speeds up. I would not be able to use this on the highway. I am not sure if only Honda's are this aggressive with the adaptive cruise but just know it is very aggressive. Overall, it is very nice car, even the base model. If I met someone who was in the market for a small SUV, everytime I would say 2023 HR-V.

2023 Honda HR-V Sport 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
The overall car is great. Above average. The front seats are very hard but plenty of room up front, The back seats are better but bring cushion for long rides. Love the outside styling better than the competition. Got a great grey color and the black interior is attractive and well appointed. It has enough power to get along. I didn't buy a hot rod! Fuel economy is very good. I … finally sold an 18 yr old Element to buy this and I'm happy. Honda really needs to do something about the hard front seats.
Battle of the Baby SUVs | 2023 Honda HR-V vs. 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross | Subcompact SUV Comparison
In this heated battle of super-small SUVs, we put the redesigned 2023 Honda HR-V head-to-head with the newly introduced 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross to see which is the better buy. Join Edmunds’ Lauren McCay as she walks you through an overview of each vehicle from top to bottom, as well… as gets them out on the road to see how they drive in the real world. Which one of these tiny SUVs will be victorious? This is our comparison test to find out!
Toyota's Corolla Cross is a key rival to the HR-V that you'll want to check out. The Corolla Cross is priced similarly to the HR-V, and overall these two SUVs are pretty evenly matched. Slow acceleration, unfortunately, is another trait that the HR-V and Corolla Cross share. The Corolla Cross does have more comfortable seats and storage spots for small items, but the HR-V counters with more rear seat space, better visibility and tighter handling.
Do you need more space than the HR-V provides? Perhaps the CR-V is the answer. The HR-V's big brother gets a full redesign for 2023 as well. More power, more room and more available features are the key reasons to get the CR-V. As expected, however, it costs more. Also, the latest HR-V is roomy enough that it will likely satisfy as a daily runabout.
Chevy's got a fine little SUV on offer by way of its Trailblazer. Both of these little SUVs are roomy for their class, and overall you'll likely be happy with either. The Trailblazer bests the HR-V with its (slightly) quicker acceleration and more comfortable front seats. In the HR-V's favor are its more nimble handling and, at least in our testing, superior real-world fuel economy.
The HR-V is Honda's smallest crossover SUV, and it slots beneath the stalwart CR-V, Passport and Pilot in Honda's lineup. The first generation of the HR-V was based on the Honda Fit hatchback and made its North American debut in 2016. Now, seven model years later, there is an all-new HR-V for 2023, and Honda's littlest SUV has grown in almost every possible way.
Keen followers of the Honda brand will realize that the Fit is no longer in production, and that means this new HR-V is no longer based on the Fit. It is instead based on the larger Civic, which means the new HR-V is bigger than its predecessor in every measurement. On the outside, the HR-V is 9.4 inches longer, 2.6 inches wider and marginally taller than before. The wheelbase (the measurement between the front and rear wheels) has grown by nearly 2 inches, and that makes the already roomy rear seat feel even more spacious.
Honda intends the HR-V to be an entry-level model for SUV shoppers and pitches it against rivals such as the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Mazda CX-30, Toyota Corolla Cross and Volkswagen Taos.
There will be three trims to choose from, each with slightly different exterior styling. The base LX trim gets a matte finish to its grille and 17-inch alloy wheels. The Sport gets a similar matte texture on the grille but with a different design, gloss-black 18-inch wheels, a single exhaust pipe at the rear (which other models don't get at all) and a rear lip spoiler. The grille and exterior plastic panels of the top-of-the range EX-L are gloss black, and this trim rides on its own trim-specific 17-inch alloy wheels.
What's under the HR-V's hood?
The engine for the new HR-V is probably the least "new" thing about it. It's a non-turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that makes 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. Those new figures represent bumps of 17 hp and 11 lb-ft from the previous HR-V's engine, but we had hoped for a bit more power given the model's larger size. Toyota's Corolla Cross makes 169 hp, for example, and the Mazda CX-30 packs up to 250 hp thanks to its available turbocharged engine.
How does the HR-V drive?
The new HR-V has a longer wheelbase and is built on a new chassis but doesn't drive significantly differently from the previous model. The steering feels a bit less rubbery, the ride is a bit more composed and less bumpy, and the handling is a bit sharper. Still, the HR-V offers respectably sporty handling. It's nearly as fun to drive quickly on turns as the Mazda CX-30, which we consider the sporty choice in this segment.
That is, however, until you press your right foot to the floor. The new HR-V's extra power can't offset its extra couple hundred pounds. The HR-V feels just as slow as ever. We hope Honda will drop in the Civic's turbocharged 1.5-liter engine — HR-V Si, anyone? — but until then, the HR-V is merely a nice commuter with better-than-average handling and steering.
How's the HR-V's interior?
The new HR-V's interior is a huge step up from the previous car's. Not because it's particularly revolutionary, but because it's been pulled straight out of the 11th-generation Civic. It's safe to say we love that interior. Honda got the tactile feel of the climate controls and buttons on the steering wheel just right, and the honeycomb-style trim on the dashboard and steering wheel is a nice touch.
Just like the Civic, the HR-V can be had with cloth seats on lower trims, but the top-spec EX-L gets leather seat surfaces. There are three USB ports up front, two of which rest neatly in the redesigned two-tier center console that features a handy cubby between the front seats. The EX-L also gets a wireless charging pad.
The back is decidedly less tech-y than the front. Even in the range-topping EX-L, you won't find things like charging ports, an air vent or a fold-down armrest. The rear bench offers just a single position for the backrest, but on the bright side, it is set at a comfortable angle. There's an abundance of headroom and legroom, too, even for 6-foot-plus passengers. Some rival subcompact crossovers can feel claustrophobic once you start filling the cabin with adults, but the HR-V gives you plenty of room to stretch out.
How's the HR-V's tech?
With a new generation of HR-V comes a new generation of tech. But again, it's stuff we've seen before in the Civic. A central infotainment display rests at the top of the dash. The standard size for the central screen is 7 inches, but the EX-L has a 9-inch unit. Both screens support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, but only the EX-L allows you to go wireless. Unlike the Civic, the HR-V does not offer an integrated navigation system, so you'll be out of luck if you venture off the beaten path in an area without cell service.
All trims get a 7-inch multi-information display on the left side of the instrument cluster. The screen is customizable and can show things like your media selection, a traditional speedometer and more. The right side of the instrument panel is a classic analog rev counter.
The Honda Sensing suite of advanced driver aids (consisting of features such as lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking) is standard across the range. Sport and EX-L trims also get a true blind-spot monitor, rather than the low-resolution blind-spot camera that annoyed us in the previous HR-V. Unfortunately, the upgraded (and quite good) Bose sound system available for the Civic is nowhere to be found on the HR-V, which means buyers who value high-quality audio may be disappointed.
How's the HR-V's storage?
The new HR-V's cargo area is similar to the previous model's, with 24.4 cubic feet of storage space in the rear hatch area. The rear seatbacks also feature a 60/40 split and are now able to fold completely flat for larger items. With the rear bench folded flat, cargo space expands to 55.1 cubic feet.
Unfortunately, the trick storage solution made famous by the previous HR-V is gone in this iteration. Honda's so-called Magic Seat, which let users flip up the rear seat bottoms to store tall items on the floor, is no more. It's a bummer because that feature differentiated the HR-V from the rest of the class.
How economical is the new HR-V?
The new HR-V gets an EPA-estimated 28 mpg combined (26 city/32 highway) with front-wheel drive and 27 mpg combined (25 city/30 highway) with all-wheel drive. Overall, these are average figures for an extra-small SUV.
What are the HR-V's trim levels?
The 2023 Honda HR-V is available in three trim levels: LX, Sport and EX-L. All are powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (158 horsepower, 138 lb-ft of torque) connected to a continuously variable automatic transmission.

Edmunds says
The 2023 Honda HR-V is a nicely executed vehicle that will satisfy shoppers looking for a useful small SUV. However, its standout attributes are shared with other vehicles in this class. The HR-V simply doesn't offer anything unique to make it a must-buy.
