.............................................................
This is the all-new Honda HR-V, and Mat’s about to find out if this is the best value-for-money family SUV you can buy in 2022!
So let’s take a look at the design. For starters, there’s no denying that the looks are much improved over the previous generation. From a full-length light bar at the rear to a body colour grille upfront, this is one seriously stylish family car.
Take a look at the inside and the high quality continues, with a smart-looking dash and a pretty good infotainment system. Honda has even retained some physical buttons so you don’t have to do everything through a touch screen!
You won’t have any trouble picking an engine either, as there’s only one - a 1.5-litre petrol coupled with two electric motors to put down 130hp. There are also three trims to pick from, but otherwise, that’s your lot!
So what do you think - is this the best family car you can buy for under £30,000? You’ll have to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

So glad that Honda is addressing their styling. As a Honda fan, it was tough to see KIAs spank them in the looks department. Hoping the upcoming crv will be attractive without being boring 🤞
Now it looks like a hyundai in the front and a renault in the back lol
Agree, the CRV is a bit of a dog, worst it's ever been. Shame as it's a great car in every other respect.
Kia and hyunday just copying other manufacturers.
@@Rimviuxx They've hired designers who have worked for other manufacturers. Just because there's similar design elements doesn't mean they copy other designers.
@@Rimviuxx They are under the same corporate. Their HQs are literally located right next to each other. They share newly invented technology but runs by different philosophy on making cars. Their designs distinguish that.
How to make a carwow hybrid review:
1. Complain about regenerative brake noises
2. Complain about CVT gearbox sound
3. Throw the boot accessories on the ground and scratch them up before giving the car back to whomever gave it.
And there you go!
Best fuel economy so Far.
This car is heavily underrated by all the reviewers out there. And its a Honda.
Heavy petrol head here, i drive tested many of them before i bought one, from the likes of CX30, Toyota RAV4 ,Corolla Cross, CH-R Renault Austral, Alfa Tonale, Hyundai Tucson, Qashqai etc.. all of them hybrids except the CX30 186 Skyactiv X.
-The HR-V was by Far the most refined (the Civic and ZR-V , CR-V are the only ones better though) , it has alot of space, noone will mention the luggage space beneath the back seats, which i would say is more then 100l , since there is a big hole underneat them (which are also called "magic" and can be raised). Space on the rear seats is like in Mercedes S Class, nothing i mean nothing comes close from those cars mentioned above. The space behind in the trunk is not really 320 liters, its is far more and also if you count the volume space that can go up till glass its plus, and not to forget there is a large socket in the trunk aswell, + its a flat space when you put your seats down, campers can sleep here with 180cm length .
Also Few things to mention
-The fuel economy is so great, in city around 2.8-3l without special treat, 3.8l during 100kmh, 5.5 during 120kmh, on 130kmh it is around 6.9 (the CX30 is better on highways)
-The performance is around 8.8 to 0-100kmh alot quicker then stated, and is faster them most of the cars in this segment to 80, only the Hyundai Tucson HEV with 260hp feels quicker.
-The sound isolation and especially the comfort is AMAZING, PLEASE DO NOT listen to those reviewers out there complaining about the noise, they don't have a CLUE what they are talking about. Maybe they drive Porsche taycans far too often or they just hit the pedal till the medal all the time...
Only and i mean ONLY if you 100% throttle heavy foot accelerating on Sport mode (on eco is quiter but slower) the noise from the engine complaining is obvious and many don't know that the models from 2023 and 2024 have better insulation then the previous versions from 2021, which contributes to 10kgs heavier car weight.
And for that 100% throttle , well lets be real you will be doing this only to impress or showcase the car, i would say Less then 1-5% of the time, since if you want to pass a car in your line, on a highway or uphil the electric motor by itself with 50% throttle is MORE then fast and the engine will be relatively quiet the e-cvt managing the noise, and if you lift your leg even 5% off the throttle it immedietely silences the roaring so you will get used to that play and you won't loose much acceleration.
I cannot imagine how this car is so cheap compared to other ones in B or C segment.
And the looks aswell... in the Sunlight White premium, it turns every 3rd head around, it's just Nuts how it attracts attention, maybe people don't know what it is or there are too few of them... You won't have that in Sportage or RAV4 or Tucson trust me .. (if you care about that, which i find it to be uncomfortable)
I just went ahead and bought my 'Advance' on 13th August 2021 & collected it on the 15th January .
The things you missed in your review.
1. You can open the tail gate by kicking your foot under the bumper. You can delay closing it by pushing the 'delay' button on the tailgate, walk 10 feet away and it closes automatically, so you can carry two hands full of shopping bags.
2.The door mirrors can dip automatically when selecting reverse.
3. The reversing camera has THREE selectable views.
It does NOT have a CVT Gearbox! It has n e:CVT which is NOT a gearbox (as in older ICE Hondas)
It has a dog clutch which locks the ICE to the electrical drive system when extra urge is required.
Te 'mooing' engine in daily use is completely irrelevant! How long does it take to do an overtake??
Thank God for the lever operated filler flap!. My Karoq's electrical one failed and I had to wreck the flap to open it. Well done Honda!
Apart from those above a good review of a brilliant car.
Good info! thx for sharing
real world MPG?
How do you like the car after 1 year of use?
Good tips, especially the dipping wing mirrors while reversing. Any issues 2 years on, do you still have the car, how is the mpg?
I LOVE that Honda didn't go for a huge black grille like almost all their competitors.
The body color lines across the grille really sell the styling for me.
Yeah I don't get it why a bunch of reviewer obsessed with black out everything, while it clearly the lines and flow the car can potentially show

@@ezrapardede1921 👍
To two comments above me. Bro, we indonesian known for mendang mending. So instead of buying the top of the line turbo RS which is overprice since the price is on par with basic CRV. Indonesian will go for the SE trim like on the video. So no worries, this kind of grill SE variant would sell well.
Cx5
Appreciate how you go so quickly to rear seating - legroom, hardness, roof height. It's become just about the top factor in our decisions about cars due to our use patterns
Ye
Yep. I love sports cars and obsessing over lines and looks and engines but for cars that are functional, I love how straight to the point these videos are
as a younger guy, i actually love hearing the engine when I'm accelerating it feels better in person, trust me
I first saw an HRV in 2000 visiting Japan, and fell in love with that styling, it remains my favorite.
Been watching carwow since when they had less than 1 million subs, and to this day Mat still Wows me
Me too
Get off the comments mat
WOW that's a long time...
Same here
ua-cam.com/video/sgOleU1GlXE/v-deo.html😱😱😱😰😨😱
this car has improved so much over the years! great video as always!
you cant have seen the video yet. npc
I got mine 2 weeks ago and love it so far. In real live driving, the engine is rarely noisy.
I ordered this car after a test drive. Major flaw is the useless middle seat in the back, other than that it is brilliant. Not for people who constantly hammer the pedal, though. For people who like cruising and who like to set new fuel economy records without being really slow.
fuel is expensive nowadays, this does a good job 👍🏼
Does it lack power?In the Continental Europe(oustide of UK) it's only offered with 131HP.I would like to know does it struggle a lot to gain speed,or does it truggle on some ascending roads?
@@lukabaresic520
Same here in Australia , they offer two choices the 1,5 L vvt with 83 kw and the hybrid model (same in the video I think), I wonder the base model having enough power to do the job, also it offers 4 seats only, for 37000 aud for the base model I can get a CX 30 with more safe features as standard and higher power engine
@@dyu999 Sorry man. You cant get a lot of power and fuel economy at the same time.
BTW, I dont think this car have any issue about accelerating unless five, 100kg people in the car with full filled trunk 😃
It's like a combination between Mazda's design and BMW or Audi's - Love it, especially the body-colour grille.
Im pretty sure there's an option for the normal grill if u want one
Or it's just... HR-V?
Polestar 2
You forgot the EV inspired grill for good measure. Now everybody should have something to be pleased with.
The back its like a toyota harrier
I could swear Mat was once locked in the boot of a car as some sort of prank as a kid and since then he has vowed to make all boot finishings part of his theraputic recovery process! 😆
I saw one of these on the road last week and had to do a double take, I think its one of the best looking front ends of any new regular car. Surprised at the brake and suspension noise, and also at the 0-60 time - impressive!
Daaaaaaamn girl! like that?
Agree. And, I have a similar kind of problem with my car's brakes too. It squeaks for the first couple kilometres, till the brakes warm up . But hey, I'm okay with that. It's 100k kms, and everything is as good as new.
The shape of the car is stunning in person. Looks like a jacked up sedan. Love it!
I remembered why I kept watching videos in here all the time ,Mat was always funny ,changes your mood with his smile and brightens your day ,glad to see he's still in business ,
First time I've seen it I though it's a facelift of the previous generation Hyundai Tucson, the resemblance is striking. Anyway good looking car, and very good price for a Hybrid SUV. I feel like the consumption is what makes this stand out from its competitors, and that is becoming more and more relevant with these gas prices.
I bought an Ex demo a couple of weeks ago, I had a test drive on 2 separate occasions, I have to say the noise mentioned in the reviews made me test it twice, very happy with it though and having driven it on several. 440 miles round trips in the last 2 weeks and several 90 mile journeys, the fuel economy is brilliant, I've seen 60mpg on my last 90 mile drive driven normally on the A41 to Chester. The noise is there if pushed but it's not a constant intrusion and you do get used to it and it helps if you try to understand why it's making the noise, I've had Merc E class, bmw 5 series, Audi A6 and. Volvo XC90 and V90 and actually think this is my favourite car, with an eye on fuel prices and comfort this is definitely a worthwhile car to consider, plus it looks lovely.
Great review as always, I did look for a review by Matt before buying tbf.
damnnnn, but is it good for motorway speeds ?
Agreed
The HRV is a really nice car to drive,and I have also driven the top end German cars as well as two Kias.
The noise mentioned is only when you’re hard accelerating, otherwise very relaxed.
Motorway driving is the same as any most modern cars. The flexibility in the seats is great.
Miles?? I thought you folks used kilometers in Great Britain. Interesting
@@krapeevids6992 UK has always been MPH it was actually a English mathematician named Charles Babbage who invented MPH so probably why we have always used that system in the UK
From Australia Agree - Having owned from new Mercedes - BMW - VW as well as many other brands. I drove the Hybrid and was very happy with it. It’s not a prestige car - it’s not expensive- I won’t have to sell a kidney to service it - I won’t worry that it will throw a leg out of bed and lunch something that will cost more than what the car is worth - I’m over paying a fortune for Euro’s then getting bugger all as a trade - The motor industry is at the beginning of huge change toward EV and/or Hydrogen. I just see this car as a practical, cheap and risk free transitional car.
I've been watching carwow stuff for years now and Mat's humour doesn't get old at all, he proper makes me chuckle.
?
Omg the back seats flipping up is amazing?? I could put my dads wheelchair in there nice and easily and still be able to use the boot!
At last Honda listening to the masses. Really good looking car, will definitely appeal to the younger markets at sensible prices.
Yup definitely listened to the masses without AWD, a small trunk, bad head room in the rear and an underpowered engine.
@@samirav1137 Read my comment, the younger dynamic buy with their eyes first. Many people see Honda as bland and dull. As for the aestethics, its up there with the competition..
The North American model sucks and apparently larger and slow with the Civic 158hp
Wish we got this model but with more powerful engine of 180hp.
Oh for sure especially with that modern touch screen. I’m 19 and recently got my provisional license and have been looking at cars, right now this is the one I’m looking at the most
Love the car, Honda finally getting cool design back

I ordered a pearl white, Honda HR-V 1.5 eHEV Advance 5dr CVT Hybrid Hatchback on 24/05/22, due in November for delivery, im looking forward to it after this review, it drove well and quality build
I bought the new HRV through Carwow back in December. Really really excited and can't wait but I'm still waiting on delivery! This semi-conductor shortage and whatever other supply chain impacts are happening are no joke.
Who else got really confused when he said the claimed 0-60 time?🙋♂️😅
Me.....
DADDY NALIN
4.8😅
He was only messing about… Honda claimed 10.7 secs 0-60
Meanwhile I literally bought it for the wireless charger in the RS model. Such a shame I couldn't find any other affordable options with this feature. Love the design, comfort and simplicity.
Been waiting for your review. Thank you
Since I'm in the States this channel is a new one for me, we still don't have this newer HRV there! And the old style is pretty much dead here, people buy it and later hate it. However I really want to comment on this AMAZING REVIEW. This is so much better than other reviews I've seen, not timid and just tells it like it is. As for the mystery 8.7 seconds, I've also seen wide variability in 0-60 scores for the Corolla Cross, just released here, but mostly unavailable due to shortages.
Calling it now, Honda will make a CR-EV and HR-EV.
foookin ell nothing gets passed you
I work at a honda dealership, the all electric CRV/HRV will be launched around december 2022 and there will also be a all new model
@@seppebraeckman2429 Already? I thought they had just partnered with sony to make electric cars, or is that for the future and this is something they have been making themselves?
I live in Malaysia and I'm picking up my new HRV-E 1.5 Turbo today. Petrol not a hybrid. We are able to choose from 4 different models here. Mine is white and has black grill plus getting full leather seats. I loved the handling of it when test driving it.
Why get the 2022 version when 2023 is just 2 months away? lol , the resale value would be so much higher
There is something about this I love! Seen one in dark grey with the sports exterior pack and it looks so good !
As a car-fan the more i watch you the more real you seem.. keep on in this way Master
The honda immd hybrid system, now on the 1.5 l class (before it was only 2.0 l on the accord) has a similar working to the nissan e-power. The engine acts as a generator most of the time, leaving 1 motor to drive the wheels. However on a highway cruise, unlike Nissan, the engine is able to direct drive to the wheels without any electric interference (except trickle charging maybe)
thank you for your knowledge
Sounds similar to the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV I have, no gearbox at all but it can directly couple the engine to the wheels, usually only when the battery is depleted.
Yeah this is the same as the Outlander PHEV which just revs the guts out of it when you try to accelerate quickly!
This is the perfect setup. Pure ePower suffers on highway speeds.
Do you know what cycle the engine is on? Is it normal or Atkinson?
Did anyone else notice mat saying " honda claims the HR-V does 0-60 mph in 4.8 seconds"?
I think he meant KP/H!!!
no he was joking 😂😂
I am in love with this car. My car recently started giving me problems and even though i have spent a lot on it i am still at square one. Not able to afford another car now but this car is a dream car. I love it. Would love it in sliver, grey, black or Red.
I am a big fan of Honda. Still using 2nd gen CRZ for the past 9 years without any overhaul and hybrid battery still intact. My car just touched 420k km mileage and still awesome. It is different between CBU from Japan and local assembly CKD
Was ready to buy it - only really let down by the engine noise. Fine round town but if you want to make brisk progress the CVT gearbox will annoy you. Shame you didn’t mention the paddles are nothing to do with the gearbox but very clever progressive battery regeneration. Hardly needed the brakes on my test run which was a brilliant feature which you unfortunately omitted.
It has a very musculine stand and looks a bit like a Volvo XC40 from the front.
Love it!
Finally the asian manufacturer are going more towards a modern, European way (without the unreliability of most)
Masculine.
I don't usually do the grammar natzi thing but i can't let you say that out loud irl
when you said the numbers, I immediately opened another tab to look it up thinking you had to be mistaken. LOL that was funny. Love your videos.
This was a great review. Thank you so much. 👌☺️
The old HRV was never awkward looking. It looked quite good actually, especially lowered on nice wheels.
The old HRV looks better than the new quite frankly new one looks boring and bland.
Test them eyes bro
@@vickashmaharaj9505 I did least week and they're fine.
Subwoofer doesnt eat the space right there, its placed on the left corner, so you loose the space that is on the left aft corner
I was hoping for this one! Carwow can read minds nowadays.
I have a 19-reg Honda Jazz Sport CVT (130ps) and 0-60mph is 8.67secs (brochure quotes 10.1s) and last week with a light right foot it was showing 57mpg (at least 12mpg better the Ford Fiesta auto I previously had). Luggage capacity is 354L seats up and 1314L seats down.
It makes noise under full acceleration, but any non-turbocharged vehicle is the same, the Fiesta made a lot of noise and 0-60 was 13.9secs.
Great looking car.
And unlike most modern cars, it looks distinctive.
distinctively Mazda
@@gerardm.5047 Exactly... like copied homework.
Gotta say with those push to release fuel caps, you can't close them if the cars locked. So you can't lock your car whilst you fill up at the petrol station. (At least it is the case with the Hyundai i30)
Lever releases are far better in that regard.
Looks so much better than the current US model!
the backseat “tunnel” is very useful .. allows me to take my roadbike anywhere
Thank for giving different pov. In Indonesia we get another trim level with 1.5L Turbo Engine with 175HP and around 240NM.
That’s quite a punch for a small Japanese suv
@@Vivsterist it's also operates really smooth and feels as punchy as the Civic
It's a definite improvement on the previous model. The exterior is beautifully crisp, clean and simple. The interior is unfortunately, a bit average, but then I'm a Peugeot 3008 driver and am spoiled by the amazing interior design. I'm very fussy about interiors being at least as good as exteriors.
I would have this interior over any other one with laggy touch screens and no physical aircon controls.
Love the nought-60 , another great review full of detail
Looking at one of these. Am used to the eCVT system with having a RAV 4. The sport function does allow you to accelerate without the noisy over-revving. Just takes a little getting used to. Test drive coming up.
Honda is making all the right moves with their new designs.
And other manufacturers can learn a lot from the interior controls. Physical knobs are best for volume and HVAC.
I took a test drive with this car a few days ago. Overall I really liked it. Good looking, good quality feeling, good consumption, good storage (for its size), good price. But I could not find a good driving position. I'm 183cm tall and whatever I did the steering wheel was either too far away, or the pedals was too close. Had the same issue in Volvo XC40.
The infotainment is OK.
I also noticed the break noise. Felt low quality.
The hybrid system is interesting. Driving in a parking area it used only battery and run quiet. When the engine decided to start it was very smooth and quiet. However in a highway it was kinda noisy. But not too noisy to be an issue.
Try the new Qashqai. I test drove that, Rav4, XC40 and this. Interior quality is the best. Engine is quiet. Driving was a bit more enjoyable in the XC40, but overall I liked the Nissan the best. Oh, and I'm 196cm tall.
You guys should do more drag races with econoboxes like this one!
In Indonesia, there are 2 engine options for HR-V: 1.5L NA, 121 PS, 145 NM and 1.5L Turbo, 177 PS, 245 NM.
Thanks for sharing. That's what I'm afraid of, that reviewers gets so caught up with newest, fastest, luxurious vehicles, sometimes lose touch with great vehicles that normal people want and need as well as affordable seem to not get fairly reviewed from a person that buy these. Mainly because they mentally compare to the top most expensive to what they see in normal consumer vehicles...it's that what F1 racing world champion 🏆 Max did commercials with? I was told he liked it, just as how he loved his Civic type R, and enjoy experience with first and second generation NSX.
Curious what the U.S. one looks like. Sounds like photos of it will be released soon. Hopefully a more aggressive stance.
Why is US getting a different HRV model vs the rest of the world. Or is it just a different version of this HRV/Vezel. Besides, I assume that the model in the review would do just fine in the US.
@@danialadam. according to Honda, it’s meant to “meet the distinct need of U.S. customers”.
The US may be a year behind but eventually, we are getting the same HRV. All Honda SUVs (even Acuras) will be have a similar design language.... eventually
@@TruthFLA That’s not what Honda said. The US version is going to look different.
@@treads2595 in the history of Honda, has that ever been true forever? Eventually, its the same.
What case are you using for the Z Fold 2? Looks great!
The HR-V is really cool
Love that front grill and isn't that rear seat ingenious? It means you could probably get a bike in the back and do the dump run in it?? And because it's a Honda it shouldn't break down afterwards
Carwow please don't get rid of Mat, ever!!
Excellent review Mat!😸
I would definitely buy this right off the rip, 60+ mpg?? Really? That’s impressive. With less than 200hp it’s perfect for the Mrs. “less speeding tickets in the household”. Very simple, practical, perfect blend of tech and the price hits home perfectly. Definitely a go ahead and buy.
It's 60 uk mpg which is about 3-4 US mpg.
thats just wrong LMAO
If this does 0-60 in 8.7 I can't wait to see what the new more powerful Civic 2.0 will do.
Nice to see the popout banners are working again.
The new carwow intro reminds me on an old 90s commercial
Love it. It has only 130hp but 253Nm. Soon the production starts for the Honda e:Ny1. The HR-V EV version. I think end of this year or next it will come to Europe
Tnxs for watching. Write me directly to receive your rewards and giveaway 👆👆...
I like the old design a lot more, but would choose the new one simply due it's economy
Absolutely love this look, but I can't find it anywhere in my state lol
It's coming here in the Philippines this April! Greetings from 🇵🇭🇵🇭
I saw people slating this car for the economy figures saying "my old jazz will do 50mpg" but I think when you consider all the extra tech, safety and weight I think getting close to 60mpg for a car like this is very impressive. Might not be best in class in certain ways but i'd buy it simply because its a honda. The Toyatas and Lexus competitors are way more expensive... getting a new honda for 28k with this level of tech I think is a no brainer personally.
I've watched all Carwow videos in 2020, 2021 and I never stop watching funny Car videos with Mat which makes me wow

Loved the car so bought it...1 month in its brilliant and 53 per gallon so far...very quiet the so called noise some mention is no where near as loud as they say on some reviews unless your after 8 seconds 0.60 times! driven properly it doesn't happen its very quiet, and such an easy drive, Great car and a great replacement to our old Kia Sportage.

This is such a great car! Really hope Honda increase their market share with this :)

@@krane15 Honda ar virtually invisible in most European countries
Can't wait for the Hybrid Civic
Is it coming? At the moment the only way to get a Honda Civic Hybrid is the Honda Insight, which is based on the 10th Gen Civic.
@@pAirA_ last quarter 2022 (in europe for sure)
Honestly, I want a Honda with a manual that's also a hybrid, They did it ones, Why not do it again?
I wish they brought this design to the US, I just love it!
No doubt, the updated 2023 is TRASH!
This narration had me laughing a lot! Thanks for that 😂
The locked filler cap even when the car is locked makes sense, especially at the moment with the current fuel prices
Love your videos! But if i can suggest something it would be to add km/h aswell as mph so your international viewers can understand. The second thing would be to get a traffic light for the dragraces, i often see the difference in the start when the countdown begins and i thinking it would be easier for everyone just to check the light.
Britain's a really weird place when it comes to units. Speed in mph, fuel economy in miles/gallon, cargo capacity in litres (too small of a unit for cargo capacity), they weigh cars in kilos but weigh people in stones like they're cavemen.
Just multiply by 1.6 for kmph
I need your advice
Shall I buy it or it will be too noisy in the road?
Thanks in advance
On the topic of why there are still cars with manual releases for the fuel filler cap.
I just had to change the entire lock mechanism on my 7 year old golf because it had worn out.
So perhaps they have just determined that the MASSIVE (not really) inconvenience of pulling a lever when you stop at the pump is superior to adding complexity and the inevitable costly changing of something that is not going to last the life of the car....
It's the difference between cars made to last and cars made to be nice until the warranty is gone, then fleece them on the extra maintenance costs.
Here's a novel approach to designing a family suv.
1) Give enough passanger head and knee room to allow 4 ,14 stone, 6ft 2" guys fit in the thing
2) give every seatbelt user it's own usb port
3) a 12volt outlet in the boot to run a cool box.
4) heated front screen
5) seatbelts mounted on the seats not the roof
6) handles in the boot to lower the rear seats.
7) a no cost option of privacy glass
8) a drivers and passengers arm rest that is functional
Then,and only then add all the frills and lipstick to the car.

If that's possible, please let me know where it was recorded in. Nice looking panorama.
Thanks in advance.
lol, you got me there, I was in shock when you said it'll do 0-60 in 4.8s, I was thinking "why is this faster than a CTR?" 🤣🤣
Whoa.. 53 mpg.. that's extremely good right? Especially in the current situation that we are living in where gas prices are skyrocketting everyday.
Not really, most cars made for European markets have similar mpg.
@@sandersson2813 not necessarily for cars of this size. For city cars etc yeah sure, but for a car like this it's very respectable
@@ibrahimkhwaja4826 Depends where you live, in Europe its pretty ordinary. It's not that big a car and its a small, low power engine.
@@sandersson2813 it's still a larger vehicle, with 2 electric motors making it quite heavy. I'm from the UK btw. Just because these glorified big hatchbacks are common doesn't change they're still fundamentally quite large. I wouldn't say it's MPG is extremely good as the OP, but it is definitely respectable
@@ibrahimkhwaja4826 I agree, the mog is adequate, bit its not amazing. Im presuming the OP was American where they dont have an incentive to have high MPG.
That front seat arm rest is an instant dealbreaker!
Just ordered the Advantage model
Those HVAC controls look like a beaut. Physical controls
So as a note, all cvt transmissions make such a noice when accelerating. Obviously you really dont have any gears to go through so it only adjusts the ratio to be in the widest optimal range of the petrol engine. Cvt gearboxes are one of the best solutions and really economical options when developing hybrid engines. The best i think is with the toyota, which did put me off at first but make absolutelly a more enjoyable drive, so long as you have enough power, which i think thenew hrv doesnt. Should have atleast 200hp to be usefull imo and it would still have good milege

I would like to see you comparing both of the Honda HR-V and the Toyota Corolla Cross. Your videos are great and informative. Thank you so much
Seems that the Corolla Cross is not coming to the UK, so unlikely he will be able to do a review.
Could you review the FORD Escape Titanium Híbrid?
