2025 Honda HR-V 1.5L Hybrid SUV

Description

So, I’ve been driving this 2025 Honda HR-V for a few months now and honestly, it’s been a solid little car. It’s got the hybrid powertrain, so it’s not super thirsty — especially in the city — and the 1.5L engine runs smoothly with the i-MMD system. I like how it handles, especially on the road, and the 5-door setup gives you good space without feeling cramped.

The wheels are 18-inch alloy in black finish, and the interior is clean and well put together. I’ve got the 3-mode drive system — Sport, Normal, Eco — so I can switch it depending on the day. The seats are heated, and the front seats have a bit of extra padding, which helps on long drives. There’s also a rear bench that splits 60-40, which is great if you’re sharing the car with someone or have kids.

Safety features are a bit of a highlight — ABS, brake assist, lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, and a rear camera. The ACC cruise control and adaptive headlights make driving easier, especially on the motorways. The ambient lighting and digital dash are nice touches too. I’ve used the auto dimming mirrors and the parking sensors quite a bit — they work well, especially when parking in tight spots.

I also picked up a couple of handy extras: USB ports in the back, a rear reading light, and a map light. The key fob lets you lock/unlock the car, adjust mirrors, and even open the tailgate hands-free. It’s a bit of a smart car in a way — not flashy, but practical.

I bought it from Norton Way Honda in Letchworth, which is a trusted Honda dealer — they’ve been around since 1989 and have a good reputation for quality and service. I had the chance to check it out in person, and the staff were helpful. It comes with a 12-month Genuine Hondacare Guarantee, which gives you peace of mind — and I’m not the only one who’s happy with that.

It’s been a great car to drive, and I’m not planning to sell it anytime soon. The price is £24,299.10, which is what I paid when I got it — not a huge amount for a new hybrid SUV with all the safety and tech.

If you’re looking for something reliable, efficient, and not too flashy — this one’s a good fit. I’m moving to Uttoxeter, East Staffordshire, and I’m not selling it to anyone else — just putting it out there in case you’re looking for something that doesn’t scream “new car” but still gets the job done.

Let me know if you’d like to chat about it — I’ve driven it plenty and can tell you what it’s really like on the road.
