The 2021 HR-V comes in five trim levels: LX, Sport, EX, EX-L and Touring. Each offers an extremely competitive list of features for a compact crossover. All Honda HR-V trim levels are powered by an efficient 1.8L 4-cylinder engine, which produces 141 horsepower and 127 pound-feet of torque.

All-wheel drive is an option should buyers need it and comes standard on the new Touring model.

The Sport trim adds Sport exclusive 18-inch alloy wheels, black exterior trim accents, dual-mode paddle shifters, leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, 7-inch touchscreen display, roof rails, fog lights and a body-colored rear spoiler.

The 2021 Honda HR-V rolls into the new year with no significant updates
The Honda HR-V represents an excellent value, giving customers plenty of upscale amenities as standard, while also offering as much interior room as some mid-sized SUVs. Despite being remarkably big on the inside, its compact dimensions mean that it's a practical vehicle to own for city dwellers. The HR-V competes with other compact crossovers such as the Chevrolet Trax, the Toyota C-HR and the Nissan Rogue with a lower base price and better fuel efficiency.
