The 2020 Honda HR-V oozes with practicality, though gas mileage and safety equipment have room to improve.

Pros

Good value even at top trim
Tidy interior
Rides well

Cons
Slow acceleration
A few too many details

Honda made some superficial and mechanical changes to the HR-V for the previous model year, but it doesn't make any significant updates to the 2020 lineup.

Pros
Impressive fuel economy,
outstanding cargo storage,
durable and well-built interior.

Cons
Buzzy engine sounds,
choppy ride on rough roads,
top features reserved for top model.
