2016 Honda HR-V – Off Road And Track Review
The 2016 Honda HR-V in EX-L AWD CVT trim. This is an all new small crossover from Honda, featuring a 1.8L I4 engine producing 141 HP which I’ll be comparing to the Jeep Renegade, Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, and the Mazda CX-5. Starting with the drawbacks, as someone 6 foot 1, the front drivers seat did feel a bit cramped compared to the other models. It also was the lowest on power, however it made up for it in fuel efficiency, being the most efficient model tested in this group with 32 mpg highway with AWD. It also has significantly more cargo space than both the Jeep and the Mitsubishi. The Honda also offers a 6 speed manual transmission in the 2WD trim.
This vehicle was tested as part of the 2015 Northwest Automotive Press Association’s Outdoor Activity Vehicle of the Year competition. The vehicle category and competing vehicles are below:
