When drivers think of an affordable and reliable Honda SUV, the CR-V often comes to mind first. However, the slightly smaller 2025 Honda HR-V deserves just as much attention. This subcompact SUV delivers impressive versatility, modern technology, and everyday practicality in a compact design.

If you are considering a new Honda SUV, you can explore the full new Honda inventory or visit McCarthy Honda to see available models in person.

2025 Honda HR-V Performance and Specs

The 2025 Honda HR-V comes with one engine option across all trims, simplifying the decision process. Regardless of trim level, you receive the same dependable performance.

  • Engine: 2.0L four-cylinder
  • Horsepower: 158 hp
  • Torque: 138 lb-ft
  • Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive standard, all-wheel drive available

While the HR-V is not designed as a high-performance SUV, its 158 horsepower delivers confident acceleration for daily commuting and highway driving. For drivers who want additional traction in changing weather conditions, available all-wheel drive enhances stability and control.

2025 Honda HR-V Fuel Economy

Fuel efficiency is one of the HR-V’s strongest advantages. Estimated MPG ratings include:

  • FWD: 26 city / 32 highway / 28 combined mpg
  • AWD: 25 city / 30 highway / 27 combined mpg

Although all-wheel drive slightly reduces fuel economy due to added drivetrain components, the HR-V remains highly efficient within the subcompact SUV segment.

Cargo space includes:

  • 24.5 cubic feet behind the rear seats
  • 55.1 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down

Standard seating is cloth, while leather-trimmed seats with heating are available on higher trims for added comfort.
