Inovev forecasts 400,000 units per year of the new Honda HRV
- Honda has unveiled the new generation of its B-segment SUV, the HRV, which succeeds the current generation marketed between 2014 and 2021, known as Vezel in Japan or XRV in China.
- This model has had some success worldwide, selling more than 2.6 million units in seven years, or 375,000 units per year, spread over six different production plants (China, Mexico , Japan, India, Brazil, Argentina), the most important of which is the Chinese plant which produced nearly half of them in 2020. Inovev forecasts 400,000 sales per year of the new Honda HRV.
- The new generation of the Honda HRV radically changes its body shape, presenting a simpler and more consensual line than the previous generation with rounded lines, typical of the Honda style of five or ten years ago.
- Previously offered in petrol and diesel versions, the HRV is also making its mutation by adopting an hybrid engine (e-HEV) already seen on the Jazz, Insight and CRV. In Europe, for example, it will only be marketed as an hybrid version based on a 1.5-liter petrol engine with 130 hp. This strategy is part of Honda's policy to electrify its entire lineup by 2025, like many carmakers.
- The new Honda HRV competes in Europe with the Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008, Opel Mokka, Citroën C3 Aircross, Volkswagen T-Cross, Skoda Kamiq, Seat Arona, Fiat 500 X, Ford Puma, Hyundai Kona and Kia Stonic.
