2024 Honda HR-V Price, Fuel Economy, Features, Features And Technology & More

Honda has returned the HR-V for the 2024 model year. But what are the changes the auto brand has possibly made to the vehicle that was only recently remodelled for the year 2023? Are there some new updates the brand has included specifically for the 2024 model?

To learn more about what is to be expected with the 2024 HR-V SUV, we share information about the features the vehicle has returned with and all that’s to be known.

What’s New In The 2024 Honda HR-V?

The Honda HR-V SUV was only recently redesigned by Honda for 2023. As such, the brand has not made any significant changes or additions to the 2024 model. However, the HR-V 2024 comes in three trim levels, the LX, Sport, and EX-L.

The Engine, Transmission, & Performance in the 2024 Honda HR-V

The Honda HR-V will be powered by two separate engines, a hybrid powertrain and a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower—this is the same engine that is found in the base trim of the Honda Civic.

Car experts note that the 2024 Honda HR-V goes from 0-60mph in 9.4 seconds, which is slower than the Mazda CX-30. For the 2024 Honda HR-V, the front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission are standard. But, the all-wheel drive is available and optional for higher trims.

The Interior & Cargo Space of the 2024 Honda HR-V

The 2024 Honda HR-V returns with a modern interior design inspired by the Honda Civic that’s both classic and attractive. The front seats of the HR-V 2024 are comfy and provide adequate legroom. Experts note that the cargo area of the HR-V provides space for up to seven travel carry-ons.

The infotainment area of the HR-V comes with either a 7.0-inch or 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Andriod Auto. The larger infotainment display offers wireless connectivity in the EX-L trim. The EX-L also comes standard with a wireless smartphone charging pad, and SiriusXM satellite radio and a Wi-Fi hotspot are equally available.

Driver Safety Assistance Features in the 2024 Honda HR-V

In the HR-V, Honda made available a host of driver-assistance features, and many of them come standard in the vehicle. Here are some of the key safety features in the HR-V 2024.

• Standard automated emergency braking
• Standard lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist
• Standard adaptive cruise control

2024 Honda HR-V Price

The 2024 Honda HR-V starts at N34 million in Nigeria, All-wheel drive is an extra fee on all trims, and a fully loaded model will barely break the N40 million barrier.

2024 Honda HR-V Fuel Economy

The 2024 Honda HR-V is rated to return up to 28 miles per gallon in mixed driving, which is about typical of the segment. Using more sophisticated and pricier engine technology, the larger and more powerful Honda CR-V is actually more efficient, boasting a comparative rating of 30 mpg. That’s not an uncommon difference when comparing subcompact and compact SUVs.

• Power, Ride, And Handling

The 2024 Honda HR-V is motivated by a 158-horsepower 4-cylinder engine matched with an automatic transmission and front- or all-wheel drive. By no means quick, we’ve found the HR-V drives with more sophistication than their price would suggest. The HR-V corners with confidence, and there’s just a splash of sportiness, aided by steering that has a satisfying heft and predictability. Still, the HR-V is at its best when moving leisurely about the world. Outward visibility is good, it’s as comfortable on the highway as anything in the class, and its tidy dimensions are ideal for moving around town and through parking lots. Like the Honda Civic on which it’s based, the HR-V’s pervasive refinement makes it one of the most satisfying vehicles in its segment.

• Roomy For Its Class

You can’t expect to be dazzled by the interiors in this segment. Yes, some are better than others, but for the most part, they are functional and comfy enough. But the HR-V’s passenger cabin is clearly among the segment’s nicest, with class-above materials, design, and finish. The HR-V’s rear-seat legroom is also better than most at 37.7 inches, and the cargo volume of 24.4 cubic feet behind the second-row seat is about average.

Top Features And Technology

• HondaLink: Download the HondaLink app onto a smartphone, and a range of services becomes available, such as stolen vehicle location, geofencing, automatic collision notification, and service appointments. This is standard with every new HR-V SUV.

• Smart Entry with Walk-Away Auto Lock: “Did I lock the car?” This question invariably springs to mind just as your plane takes off and you see all the long-term parking lots becoming smaller. With this feature, standard in the top two trims, such angst becomes a thing of the past.

• Honda Sensing: Standard on every HR-V, Honda Sensing is the bundle of advanced safety and driver-aid technologies. It includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection. Lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control with low-speed follow, and lane-departure warning with steering assist are also part of the package.

• Rear side-impact airbags: In addition to the HR-V’s other eight airbags, rear side-impact airbags are standard across the model lineup.

• Active noise cancellation: Every HR-V comes with active noise cancellation that uses the audio-system speakers to neutralize unwelcome sound waves.

• Wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto: Available only on the EX-L, you can stream music and other information from your smartphone into the infotainment system without messy wires and occupying a USB port.

Engine, Safety, And Warranty

One engine covers all three new HR-V trim levels. It’s a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder unit without any turbocharging.

Output is 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. This connects to an automatic transmission of the continuously variable variety. Front-wheel drive (FWD) is standard. All-wheel drive (AWD) is optional across the lineup. Regular gasoline is perfectly acceptable.

• 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine
• 158 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm
• 138 lb-ft of torque @ 4,200 rpm
• EPA city/highway fuel economy: 28 mpg with front-wheel drive (26 city, 32 highway), 27 mpg with all-wheel drive (25 city, 30 highway).

Excellent Safety Scores

The second-generation Honda HR-V is an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ thanks to its good crash test scores and a generous list of standard safety features.

3-Year/36,000-Mile Warranty

The Honda HR-V is covered by a 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. This coverage is typical for this class, but you also get complimentary scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
