This video was very helpful. I think the Toyota CH-R looks more sporty but has over 20 sq. ft. less cargo room, no magic seats, and no AWD. The HR-V had the least reported new-car problems of all 2020 Honda models. My new 2021 Honda HR-V EX AWD color is "Midnight Amethyst", but I just call it "Burple". The more I drive it, the more I like it!

The biggest news for the 2021 HR-V involves the wheels on most trims The HR-V Sport receives aggressive new black-painted 18-inch alloys EX and EX-L trims get the 17-inch machine-finished alloys with gloss shark-gray inserts that appeared on the 2020 Touring The 2021 HR-V Touring is equipped with new 17-inch machine-finished alloys featuring black-painted inserts The rear privacy glass previously found on HR-V EX and above trims now extends to Sport trims as well There have been some tweaks to color-and-trim availability: Milano Red is now only available on the HR-V Sport trim Only black interiors can be had with the Modern Steel Metallic exterior Orangeburst Metallic is no longer offered
The first time I came out after dark with the key-fob in my pocket and put my hand on the door handle of my new 2021 Honda HR-V EX, the car came alive, lit up, and unlocked. We were impressed. I'm still trying to get used to not taking my key out of my pocket to drive away.
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18, I don't remember the odometer reading on the '86 Accord, but I traded it for a 2006 Ridgeline. I loved, loved, loved everything about that 'truck', except the 16 MPGs.
The LX has a CD player... And none of the higher models have one. That's mind boggling. CDs are awesome! It's a big reason I won't get rid of my Accord.
That's correct. I not 100% why Automotive Companies are going away with CD players but there are aftermarket options available that you may explore online or third-party companies.
Seriously considering trading my 09 CRV for one of these...Smaller on the outside, just as much (if not more) space on the inside! The standard safety tech is a selling point too. Great video!

I love it! I was hoping though to hear about speakers. How many? What quality. Thanks for the good video, Chris! Thinking about trading in my '17 Fit EX-L for one of these. Have to have great audio, though. :)
I know there are 6 speakers! I can’t remember the quality of each though. I signed for this today and am just excited not to have broken speakers, my current car came with blown out ones 😂
I’m seriously considering this car for me and my mom to share it’s perfect for both of us but the only one problem is that I’m shorter than my mother so when it comes to the seat it’s going to be a pain to adjust it everytime I drive
Have you had any problems or anyone with problems with lane keeping assist? I've read some comments having issues with that jerking them in the lane or something. Thanks!
I like the trim level where the heat and AC have physical knobs. Which trim level carry those. Also, I noticed this one didnt have a cd player. The ones that do. Are those cd players capable of playing mp3 discs ?
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18 I just got a call today from my nearest Hyundai dealer. They told me it would cost me $1550 to buy out my 2018 leased Sonata. I think thats a little much. Any way to negotiate that cost ?

Hi! I'm shopping for a spacious suv that I could travel in and do some stealth camping. My concern is the feature that doesn't allow the car to be locked with the key inside. Does this mean if I'm inside the car when sleeping or just seating in it, anyone can just open the door from the outside?

Yes the no AWD on CH-R is what is drawing me to the HR-V 👍🏿👍🏿
I have a 2016 EX which gets 28 city and 34 mixed. It's been a daily driver for 4+ yrs trouble free.
That’s awesome!
I own a 2020 HRV EX and this is exactly the same. Nothing has changed at all except for the rims.
The biggest news for the 2021 HR-V involves the wheels on most trims
The HR-V Sport receives aggressive new black-painted 18-inch alloys
EX and EX-L trims get the 17-inch machine-finished alloys with gloss shark-gray inserts that appeared on the 2020 Touring
The 2021 HR-V Touring is equipped with new 17-inch machine-finished alloys featuring black-painted inserts
The rear privacy glass previously found on HR-V EX and above trims now extends to Sport trims as well
There have been some tweaks to color-and-trim availability:
Milano Red is now only available on the HR-V Sport trim
Only black interiors can be had with the Modern Steel Metallic exterior
Orangeburst Metallic is no longer offered
Despite the true 28mpg, I want one. It fits my needs.
Have you selected a color yet?
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18 I'm going to the dealer tomorrow! I like it in black. I just need to see it up close first.

I have seem many positive feedback online and from third-party companies. Here's just one of the links www.cars.com/research/honda-hr_v-2021/consumer-reviews/
Does this mean that I cannot lock the car while I'm inside the car? What if I want t lock it or safety reasons while I stay in the car?
Here's a link to another video I have created to assist with this question. Thank you for watching

You can lock the car while inside using the door controls and the remote (I just bought mine today and tried both ways)
@@FuegoLoops congratulations on your new Honda!!
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18 Thank you so much! I'm thoroughly enjoying it!
This car almost has as much cargo space as a CX-5 which happens to be a 'compact' SUV.
Thank you for watching!
When ordering HRV, can you have leather on the base model?
That would be great but you can NOT. You would have to be at the EX-L for the leather. Would this be your first Honda? Thank you for watching!
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18 no, I have had a 1999 CRV.
How much? Which one is the one that comes with leather seats?
The EX-L trim level has leather seats
hello, my car is a 2019 Honda HR-V EX, I want to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, how can I do this?? Thank you ))
I have been asked that question so many times and just wished that I had an answer because it would be one of my top watched videos
@@CrazyHondaChris-H18 thank you very much ))
Is there a navigation system?
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard. No built in navigation until you get into the touring trim. Thank you for watching.
Is hrv ex much better than hrv sports
Yes, I feel like to get more value in the EX trim over the Sport trim. The safety features and Honda Lanewatch plus more. Thank you for watching
Moi aussi. Me too. J’aime. I love Honda. Drive Prélude (fantastic car). Accord top modèle et Civic top Aldo. Découvre votre chaîne. Je m’abonne :) :)

Does the Sport model have more upgrade features than the EX?
