Comprehensive Guide to Buying a Honda Hr-V in the UK

Honda HR-V (2015-Present)

The Honda HR-V is a small crossover that rivals the Ford Puma and the Renault Captur. It originally came onto the market in 2015 and is still being produced today.

Pros

  • Generous Equipment: The HR-V is well-equipped even in its base form, with features like climate control and a touchscreen infotainment system fitted as standard.
  • Practical Layout: The interior design of the HR-V is focused on practicality, with a large boot and cleverly designed 'magic' rear seats for maximum flexibility.
  • Good reputation: Honda's reputation for reliability remains unblemished, and the HR-V is no exception.

Cons

  • Expensive: Compared to other small crossovers, the HR-V is noticeably more expensive, which can be an issue for some potential buyers.
  • Less Choice: Unlike some rivals, the HR-V doesn’t offer a diesel option.
  • Noisy Drive: When driven hard, the CVT automatic gearbox can be slightly noisy.

What to look out for

When you go to buy a used Honda HR-V, there are a few things to look out for. Firstly, check for excessive tyre wear, which could indicate an issue with the suspension or the wheel alignment. Secondly, ensure that all the electrical systems are working correctly, including the infotainment system and all the lights. Lastly, consider an HR-V with a full-service history to ensure it's been properly maintained.
