This 2024 Honda HR V Advance is a smartly styled compact SUV featuring Honda’s e:HEV hybrid system. A 1.5 litre i VTEC petrol engine works alongside two electric motors and a small battery, producing a combined 131?PS and 253?Nm of torque, channeled through an e CVT. Performance is modest, with 0–62?mph taking around 10.7 seconds and a top speed of approximately 105?mph. Fuel efficiency shines: official WLTP figures cite around 52.3?mpg, and real world tests often exceed this, with drivers reporting up to 53?mpg. However, the petrol engine can become noisy under load due to the CVT, which reviewers noted . The Advance trim is generously equipped, offering 18″ alloys, leather-trimmed and heated front seats, heated steering wheel, panoramic glass roof, wireless Apple CarPlay, dual-zone climate control, Magic Seats, and full Honda SENSING suite including adaptive cruise and lane keep assist. Cabin quality is high, though boot space is a modest 304–319?L, expandable to around 1,289?L with seats down. Ride and handling are planted and confident, with a pleasing chassis balance, yet the CVT droning and firm suspension are minor drawbacks. Overall, the HR V Advance offers a well rounded blend of efficiency, tech, and practicality ideal for urban families—if you're comfortable with its hybrid performance quirks.
