Honda Hr V

Anyone else have "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster the People stuck in their heads? Well, you do now. I couldn't be the only one. Anyway, the 2018 Nissan Kicks is a thing. It replaces the Nissan Juke, which Mr. Stocksdale thought was a bad idea and Mr. Myself thought was a smart idea. Nevertheless, neither of us were especially pumped up by the Kicks.

Honda's exhibition at the 2018 Beijing Auto Show includes the Everus EV concept. The production version of the Everus EV will be a China-only electric vehicle, and it will be marketed under its own brand.

Many of us here at Autoblog are unabashed enthusiasts of the endangered manual transmission, and we know we're not alone. Honda, which makes several of its vehicles available with a stick, released a video aimed at orienting beginners to the simple joys of driving a stick.

The 2018 Hyundai Kona is the hottest new thing in the hottest new segment: subcompact crossovers. Or B-segment SUVs. Or whatever you might want to call this hodge-podge collection of vehicles of vaguely similar specs. Each is pretty much just a raised hatchback in some form (or literally in the case of one entry), skewing the increasingly vague line between car and SUV. If there was ever a segment that deserved the term "crossover" for more reasons than just its car-based unibody architecture, t

You're brand new car is going to lose a ton of value right when you drive it off the lot, right? Turns out, that may not always be the case.

Honda reapplies to trademark the name CDX in the US, but still no word on if or when we'll get an Acura CDX.

Thoughts from a year with Honda's Fit-based subcompact crossover.

The world needs ditch diggers too.

We've only had our long-term Honda HR-V for a few months, but we've already added 6,000 miles to the odometer. Here's how our little CUV is holding up.

Small crossovers are booming right now, and the Honda HR-V is at the top of the pack. To see why these little guys are being gobbled up by consumers, we've added a 2016 HR-V to our long-term test fleet.

Honda has a huge array of custom vehicles at SEMA this year, including a tuned HR-V with eye-searing pink paint and a Pilot support truck for Baja.

The compact CUV party is getting hot, and Honda's 2016 HR-V wants in on the fun. We give the Fit-based crossover a full test in Miami.

The idea of an Acura-badged Honda HR-V is picking up steam, as the Japanese company's premium brand registered a trademark for "CDX," with the US Patent and Trademark Office.

Acura is at least looking at an entry in the increasingly important compact CUV market, with a vehicle based on Honda's upcoming HR-V.

In its most economical form, the new Honda HR-V ranks as the most fuel-efficient, conventionally-powered crossover on the market, with an EPA rating of 28 miles per gallon in the city, 35 on the highway and 31 on the combined cycle.

Honda's extended tease for the 2016 HR-V compact crossover is finally over. The CUV debuted in Japan late, last year, and the company has trotted various versions to shows around the world since then. The time has finally come for all of the details about the US version to be revealed at this year's Los Angeles Auto Show.

If the Honda HR-V feels awfully familiar to you by now, you're not alone. We've seen it debut in Japanese form (dubbed "Vezel"), caught a prototype in Paris, and Honda first showed us the US-spec version in press-photo form all the way back at the New York Auto Show in April. We're finally going to get all the details on Honda's new subcompact crossover this week as part of the Los Angeles Auto Show, but first, we're getting an early look at the CUV today.

Generally, the best policy in life is to admit when you're wrong and just accept the consequences. However, that attitude generally seems to be a bit less common in the world of business – at least without some government or legal prodding. So, it's especially surprising to learn that top Honda executives in Japan are taking a pay cut for the next three months following the fifth recall of the Fit Hybrid (pictured above) in the last 12 months.

Honda has already showcased its new Fit-based crossover around the world. We've seen it in Tokyo wearing the Vezel name and we've seen it in Paris in 'prototype' form. We've even seen photos of the US-spec version. We just haven't seen that North American model in the flesh, but that'll all be fixed next month at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

Is there anything quite so exciting as seeing a brand-new vehicle for the very first time? Part of the allure of auto shows is the chance to see new ideas, just before they're fully baked and ready for public consumption. "Prototypes" you might say, of production models that are just around the corner. Or, in the case of the Honda HR-V, already down the block a ways.
