The 2027 Honda HR-V: What’s New & What Matters
The Honest Take: Built on Honda’s global architectural platform—the same architecture that underpins the award-winning Civic—the 2027 Honda HR-V stands out as one of the most composed and premium-feeling crossovers in the subcompact class. For 2027, Honda has made standardizing modern connectivity a top priority. Every single 2027 HR-V comes equipped with a large 9-inch color touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay®, wireless Android Auto™, a wireless phone charging pad, and the full Honda Sensing® active safety suite. Combined with a wider track, independent rear suspension, and smooth power delivery, the 2027 HR-V punches far above its weight class.
Whether you are seeking an efficient city vehicle for navigating tight parking spaces or a versatile commuter capable of taking on Midwest winter roads with available Real Time AWD™, the 2027 HR-V delivers incredible value. At Ike Honda in Marion, IL, our team helps drivers across Williamson and Jackson counties find the right trim for their budget and lifestyle.
Engineered for Agility: 2.0L Engine & Independent Suspension
Every 2027 Honda HR-V is powered by a responsive 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) featuring step-shift programming, the powertrain keeps the engine in its optimal powerband during highway merging while providing linear throttle response during town driving.
|
Multi-Link Rear Suspension Unlike many entry-level crossovers that use a rigid torsion-beam rear axle, the HR-V utilizes a MacPherson strut front suspension paired with a sophisticated multi-link rear suspension. This setup absorbs road bumps smoothly along I-57 while providing precise, flat cornering confidence. |
Impressive Fuel Economy Front-wheel-drive models earn an EPA-estimated 26 city / 32 highway / 28 combined MPG, while available Real Time AWD™ models achieve an EPA-estimated 25 city / 30 highway / 27 combined MPG—keeping your daily commuting costs comfortably low. |

Real Time AWD™ & Southern Illinois All-Weather Confidence
Southern Illinois winters and sudden rainstorms demand dependable traction. Available on LX, Sport, and EX-L trims, Honda’s Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System™ uses advanced electronic sensors to monitor road conditions, sending torque to the rear wheels instantly when front-wheel slippage is detected.
|
Integrated Snow Mode AWD models include a dedicated Snow Mode that softens throttle mapping and adjusts transmission shift logic to reduce wheelspin on icy roads and packed snow. |
Hill Descent Control Standard on every 2027 HR-V, Hill Descent Control automatically maintains a steady low speed when navigating steep or slippery downhill slopes without constant braking. |
Dynamic Handling Variable-ratio electric power steering and a wide wheel track give the HR-V nimble, responsive cornering feel when driving through winding rural roads in Jackson County. |
