The Honda HR-V is a capable crossover that’s been a favorite for years. While the model has advanced over the years, you’ll still see many standout features even in the 2018 Honda HR-V. We’re diving into all the differences between this model and the 2023 model at Heritage Honda Bel Air.
Premium Performance
Both SUVs deliver notable performance, although you’ll have a bit more pep in your step when driving the 2023 Honda HR-V. It uses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to generate up to 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. The 2018 model can’t quite keep up with its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine, which delivers up to 141 horsepower and 127 lb-ft of torque.
Fuel Efficiency
While the differences are minimal on some models, the 2018 Honda HR-V is more fuel efficient. It varies depending on the model you select and whether or not you opt for all-wheel drive, but the 2018 model always boasts slightly higher gas mileage.
Transmission
The SUVs utilize different standard transmissions, as well. The 2018 Honda HR-V comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission. The 2023 Honda HR-V, on the other hand, uses an intuitive continuously variable transmission for a smoother ride.
Flexible Space
When it comes to size, both SUVs are fairly similar. However, the 2018 model is slightly larger with extra headroom, second-row legroom, and an extra cubic feet of passenger volume. Plus, it has an extra four cubic feet of cargo space behind the first row.
