How does the 2024 Honda HR-V drive?
Our expert take on Honda HR-V drivability.
This generation of HR-V feels a little more agile and dynamic in corners than the old one, even though you sit up a touch higher.
It also rides quite nicely despite rolling on larger 18-inch wheels shod with good quality Michelin Primacy 4 tyres, soaking up expansion joints and potholes with relative grace.
It’s suspended quite softly, so there’s a little bit of sideways movement of your body in corners, but I found the overall dynamics to be well-judged considering its core target audience.
The steering is very light, meaning it’s an absolute breeze to putter around in.
That engine is underdone though. On the positive front, it offers a smooth stop/start system and its CVT is quite responsive off the mark, so the drivetrain does operate predictably in congestion unlike some smaller turbos with dual-clutch transmissions made by other brands.
It’s also quite efficient, with my overall 7.0L/100km average wide of the claim but still pretty decent.
