2023 Honda HR-V Levels Guide
The latest generation of Honda’s base SUV is built on the same outstanding Civic platform but features a more powerful engine and upgraded features. The Subaru Crosstrek, Kia Seltos, Mazda CX-30, and Toyota C-HR are some of the other subcompact crossovers that the 2023 Honda HR-V competes with.
As with the 2023 model year, the HR-V’s has a cleaner, more streamlined look. Borrowing from the Civic’s success with its horizontal vent design and honeycomb dashboard details, the new Accord’s cabin is a sight to behold. The entry-level SUV takes a significant leap forward in certain respects and a minor step backward in others.

Summary
The 2023 HR-V is more alluring than before because of upgraded electronics and safety features, but its engine remains sluggish in acceleration. As a result of the 2023 HR-V’s curb weight, the upgraded engine is mostly unchanged. Still, the HR-V’s independent rear suspension and Civic-derived underpinnings make for a much more entertaining ride. It has very good body control and is quite good at dealing with road imperfections.
What You Should Know About the 2023 Honda HR-V?
The HR-V takes cues for its updated cabin from the stylish and practical new Civic. Adjusting the front seats to your preferred level of comfort and support is a breeze. Honda’s ingenious Magic Seat in the second row, which flips and folds to provide an exceptional level floor, was available on the outgoing model.
Because of this innovation, the HR-V has the most cargo space in its class despite its compact dimensions. The new HR-V no longer has this function, but Honda says the cargo area is wider and the lift-over height is lower, making it easier to carry bulky objects.
