Since its birth, Honda HR-V has always been the leader in compact SUVs. Although the existence of Nissan Juke and Mitsubishi Outlander is very competitive, their upgrades are not as fast as Honda. Due to the delivery of SUVs in various market segments, this part of the market has become crowded. But no one can compete with the sales of Honda’s flagship compact crossover. Sales of Honda crossovers increased from IDR 297 million to IDR 415 million. The emergence of Prestige Honda HR-V is a new market opened by Honda. It has a comfortable driving experience and excellent appearance.
Interior style is harmonized with exterior makeup through the use of materials. At least scattered leather panels or a soft touch when entering the cabin. This can be felt by the body thanks to the leather seats and the touch of the steering wheel on the leather bandage. The theme remains dark like the other variants. Even so, Prestige strengthens this aura through the arrangement of soft ivory panel ornaments on the dashboard and door trim.
Even though we have been acquainted for a long time, the features in the cabin are not exactly out of date. For example, driving support, to start the engine, just press the engine start / stop button. Then when driving and entering the freeway, the driver’s load becomes lighter thanks to the Cruise Control. Others such as automatic climate control digital screens along with touch screen buttons (capacitive) add smart functionality.
Entertainment comes from the 8-inch touch screen head unit, floating in the middle of the dashboard. Its function is sufficient to accommodate current connectivity needs. External connection capabilities include USB, Aux, and Bluetooth ports. You can also mirror your smartphone via Miracast. Once connected, entertainment facilities are able to operate a number of smartphone applications such as YouTube to navigation tools. Not only controlled from the system, the set of audio buttons on the steering wheel makes setup easy.

Maneuvers also have their own guard. It is a strategic combination between Motion Adaptive Power Steering (EPS) and Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA). The two of them work together to deal with cornering slippage. The VSA actively minimizes slippage symptoms from wheel rotation, then EPS provides assistance in correcting the steering wheel in the direction it should be – be it oversteer or understeer to the wind from the side (crosswind).
Having a handling guard like that means there’s no need to question the existence of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). The braking device is combined with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist (BA). Maneuverability is also made easy for Hill Start Assist, Electronic Parking Brake, and Auto Hold.R-V Complete.
