Review: 2027 Honda HR-V
By Marcus Whitfield

Six trims, FWD or AWD, all with a 158-hp 2.0L engine and 55.1 cu ft of cargo room—compare specs and pricing here.

Every 2027 HR-V trim shares a 2.0-liter I-4 making 158 hp and 138 lb-ft through a CVT. FWD models return 28 mpg combined (26 city/32 highway); opting for AWD, available across LX, Sport, and EX-L, drops that to 27 combined (25 city/30 highway) but adds traction margin.

Cargo space holds steady at 55.1 cu ft regardless of trim, and seating is fixed at five across the lineup. Pricing spans $26,600 for LX FWD to $31,950 for EX-L AWD, giving buyers a clear efficiency-versus-grip trade-off within one powertrain.

The verdict

Highs, lows & bottom line

Highs

  • Cargo capacity that beats its subcompact footprint
  • Highway fuel economy strong for the class on FWD trims
  • Six-trim spread lets buyers pick FWD or AWD

Lows

  • Naturally aspirated four feels stretched at highway merges
  • AWD trims lose several mpg versus FWD counterparts
  • CVT drones under hard acceleration, no manual shift feel

Bottom line

The HR-V trades outright power for cargo room and efficiency, making it a rational pick for buyers who prioritize space and fuel economy over quick acceleration.

Frequently Asked Questions

FWD models are EPA-rated at 26 mpg city/32 highway/28 combined. Choosing AWD drops that to 25/30/27 combined, a modest trade-off for the extra traction.

All trims share 55.1 cu ft of cargo volume, a figure that doesn't change with drivetrain or trim level.

AWD is available on LX, Sport, and EX-L trims, with the same 158-hp, 2.0-liter I-4 and 138 lb-ft of torque as the FWD versions. The AWD system doesn't add power, but it does trim highway mpg by 2 points and city mpg by 1.

Every HR-V configuration carries a 14-gallon tank. Combined with combined-cycle mpg in the high-20s, that's good for several hundred miles between fill-ups under normal driving.

The HR-V's 158 hp and 55.1 cu ft of cargo space are solid for the segment, though horsepower, engine choices, and cargo figures vary by competitor and trim, so shoppers should compare each rival's own spec sheet directly rather than assume parity.

Every 2027 HR-V trim, FWD or AWD, pairs the 2.0-liter engine with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT); no manual gearbox is offered in this lineup.
