Bob Boyte Honda - What to Know About the 2026 Honda HR-V

The 2026 Honda HR-V brings a confident blend of versatility, comfort, and intuitive technology to the subcompact crossover class. It feels right-sized for busy streets yet relaxed on longer drives, with clever packaging that makes everyday errands, weekend trips, and life’s in-between moments easier. At Bob Boyte Honda, serving Jackson, Madison, and Flowood, our team welcomes drivers who want an SUV that’s stylish, dependable, and simple to live with.

First impressions matter, and the HR-V looks sharp from every angle. A clean front fascia, sculpted sides, and an athletic stance give it an upscale presence without shouting for attention. Step inside and the cabin follows through with smart ergonomics and quality materials. The front seats support a wide range of body types, outward visibility is excellent, and the rear bench offers genuine adult-friendly legroom. Cargo space is equally thoughtful—load height is practical, the opening is wide, and the 60/40 split-folding rear seat lets you switch from passengers to gear without a fuss.

Trim levels are thoughtfully arranged so you can match features to your priorities. Expect a strong set of standard technologies, including the Honda Sensing suite of driver-assistance features and wireless Apple CarPlay® for seamless phone integration. Available upgrades enhance comfort and confidence—think leather-trimmed seating, a one-touch power moonroof, dual-zone climate control, a blind spot information system, parking sensors, and Real Time AWD for added traction. The results are cohesive and user-friendly, from the crisp infotainment interface to logical controls that keep your attention on the road.
