Honda announces details of 2019 updates for HR-V
Honda has revealed the first details of the updated 2019 HR-V.
The mid -life facelift for compact SUV features enhanced exterior styling, updates to the interior and a range of advanced technologies.
On the outside there’s what Honda calls a “more substantial” interpretation of Honda’s Solid Wing Face graphic, with a new, high-gloss dark chrome panel, new air intakes and projector lens headlights with redesigned LED daytime running lights.
At the rear, a dark chrome garnish across the tailgate mirrors the new trim at the front, and the rear lights sit within darker lens casings.
Inside, Honda has increased sound insulation and the HR-V will be available with active noise cancellation for the first time.
From launch, the HR-V will be available with a 129bhp 1.5-litre petrol engine with six-speed manual or cvt automatic transmission.
A sportier, 1.5-litre turbo engine will follow in spring 2019, alongside a 1.6-litre diesel.
