The HR-V returns unchanged for the 2020 model year.
Pros Average-size adults fit comfortably in the front and back Clever cargo solutions make it more versatile than rivals Better than most competitors on fuel economy Excellent outward visibility
Cons Unimpressive power output results in lackluster acceleration Palpable engine noise and vibration Touchscreen interface is difficult to use Cabin materials look a little cheaper than those in some rivals
The 2020 Honda HR-V oozes with practicality, though gas mileage and safety equipment have room to improve.
Pros Brilliant interior flexibility Good value even at top trim Tidy interior Rides well
Cons Slow acceleration A few too many details Emergency braking only on EX and above Pricey Touring trim
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.
The Suzuki Ignis bears a familiar name but, if you think this new model shares the boring Euro-box design of the old cars, think again.
Pros Striking looks Decent passenger space Hybrid version for the environmentally conscious
Cons Limited engine choice Some rivals ride better Infotainment system isn’t class-leading
Pros Funky and chunky styling Colourful personalisation options Peppy little engine
Cons No active safety systems available Not really an SUV Ride can be a little crashy
Pros Looks superb, doesn’t use much fuel, low prices, chirpy character.
Cons The ride’s pretty unsophisticated… and that’s about it
