2026 Honda HR-V review

The Honda HR-V is a solid option in the small SUV segment, but there are some cons to go with its many pros.

We've had plenty of time to sink our teeth into the Honda HR-V after living with it for three months, so here are our thoughts.

We're spending three months with Honda's little hybrid SUV to find out whether it's fit for the daily commute.

Hybrid motoring isn't uncommon in the small SUV segment, and the HR-V is one of the better examples, but it doesn't come cheap.

SPONSORED: The updated Honda HR-V e:HEV remains a benchmark in the small SUV segment with improvements from top to bottom.

The Honda HR-V is a thrifty, refined, spacious and attractive crossover. But seriously, only four seats?!

The Honda HR-V e:HEV won’t be for everyone, but it's for those wanting something a cut above the rest in the small SUV segment.

The new base Honda HR-V is more stylish and sophisticated than before, but also has a smaller boot, less power, and a higher sticker price.

The new HR-V hybrid is finally here, but can swish design, tech and an electrified drivetrain outweigh the four-seat cabin and high pricing?

The current Honda HR-V is practical, but it's never been particularly sexy. The recently-revealed RS doesn't do much to change that.
