When you need to keep your eyes on the road, it's great to know that you've got everything to hand. We've intuitively designed the HR-V cockpit, so that every feature is where you need it ‐ from the elegant dashboard with 7-inch display, to the multi-function steering wheel (VTi-LX shown). The HR-V features dials with a difference. They come alive when you look at them, giving you important information with an enchanting illumination. Simpler and more convenient, the Electric Parking Brake frees up space, allowing an extended centre console. Often it's the small details that enrich the bigger picture. So when you choose the sporty RS or the VTi-LX model, you'll receive Honda's exceptionally well-crafted sports pedals as part of the package (RS shown).

With a stunning array of tail lights featuring LED guide style tail lights#, the rear of the HR-V is truly a sight to see. Stand out and see it all with the HR-V's beautifully designed LED headlights+ and Daytime Running Lights. Every bit as practical as they look, these stunning front fog lights+ lend an authentic SUV quality to the front grille. Made to light up the path ahead in foggy conditions, they're ready to come to the rescue.

There's a secret to the HR-V's miraculous use of space and it lies in the seats themselves. Featuring 18 unique combinations, Honda's Magic Seats adapt effortlessly to let you pack almost anything in.

Never again will you spend your time stopped in traffic stepping on the brake pedal. Simply press the automatic Brake Hold button to activate.  When you come to a stop, the system will automatically hold the HR-V in position without you having to apply constant pressure on the brake. The system automatically releases the brake as you press the accelerator pedal so long as the driver's seatbelt is engaged. Lock in your perfect cruising speed and the HR-V will do the rest. Not only will it make your trip a breeze, it will optimise your fuel economy. With a gentle push of the turn indicator, HR-V indicates three times before automatically turning off. For continuous indication, just press until you feel it lock into place.

Under hood lies a 1.8L i-VTEC engine perfectly proportioned for this sub-compact SUV. Generating a punchy 105kW of power and 172Nm of pulling power, it's coupled to Honda's state-of the-art Earth Dreams CVT. Adjusting to the driving conditions and ensuring the engine is operating at the most efficient rpm level, the result is a smooth and comfortable drive that's easier on your passengers and your wallet. By pressing the ECON button fuel economy is helped further still. Once activated, the transmission and engine are optimised to conserve fuel. For example, a gentler throttle controls power and torque and the air conditioning is set to consume less energy. You might not notice the difference straight away, but you will when you visit the pump a little less often.

Get a better view of what's behind you with a multi-angle reversing camera as standard. It can display three different angles: normal, top-down and wide. LaneWatch* uses a small camera in the passenger’s side mirror to display live video on the 7-inch display screen giving you a clearer view of the kerb side traffic conditions. Say goodbye to blind spots (RS shown).

There's no need to take your hands off the wheel with these handy controls: select your favourite tunes or turn the volume up ‐ all the while keeping your eyes on the road. Select your playlist and prepare to be surrounded by exceptional sound with the HR-V's beautiful 6-speaker sound system.

Conduct the interior climate from the front seat using the touch-based control panel. Simply swipe up or down or tap to pinpoint your perfect cruising temperature. Select the VTi-LX for dual-zone climate control (VTi-LX shown). Wherever you go, you'll arrive in luxurious comfort in the beautiful, leather-appointed seats^. Found in the RS model and above, the front seats can be heated — a nice touch, but pure genius in the clutches of winter (RS shown). Talk about the perfect accomplice. When the HR-V notices the first signs of rain, it can automatically engage the windscreen wipers. Once the weather has passed, it'll return them to the off position (RS and above, RS shown).

This technology helps keep the HR-V on course in adverse driving conditions by detecting, then mitigating, potential understeer or oversteer. When necessary, VSA automatically reduces engine power and manages brake pressure to individual wheels to help regain control.

Be alerted long before it becomes an issue. The Tyre Deflation Warning System keeps track of the pressure in all four tyres and reports to you if one is getting low.

Slip in or out of tight spots with ease thanks to the HR-V's rear+ and front~ parking sensors. These sound a helpful alert to let you know how much space exists between you and the nearest object.
