Seems like the diamond grille design is exclusively for RS while the horizontal grille will be for the other specs (Turbo and N/A variant).

Whats your view? Personally prefer the diamond grille though.

There's a preview next weekend for certain showroom, anyone have information on this? Only invited guest gets to see the car?

i thought the new HR-V is the one that was launched in the US. I actually like that better, and I wonder if they will ever make way to Malaysia, or SEA market.

US's HR-V is based on Civic (C-segment) platform while Asia countries HRV is based on City (B-segment).

US's HRV is known as ZR-V in Asia countries but i doubt it will make way to Malaysia / SEA market though.

I hope it would be possible at some point to retrofit the RS body kit to the V spec 1.5turbo variant.

Im sure its possible. You will probably see accessories shop start to sell RS bodykits when its near launching.

Oh yeah and the powered tailgate too.

RS: HEV hybrid with spare tyre? lol

Hybrid will only get tyre repair kit as that space for spare tyre is taken by the battery already.

Normal petrol / turbo variant will probably get either a full sized tyre / small tyre

exactly ..just wonder copy & paste on the first post. lol

Those are salesman's info which may be inaccurate. Edited the post though

I have booked the Corolla cross back in March 2022 and I’m still waiting for allocation. After seeing a few preliminary reviews on YouTube especially those coming from Thailand, I’m beginning to lean towards HRV e-Hev.. (FYI I’m currently driving the previous gen HRV back in 2015 when it first launch)

Can anyone here enlighten me the difference with Honda E-Hev (since it was first introduced in the new Honda city RS last year) as to compared to Toyota’s 4th gen hybrid ? Appreciate it in advance .

Well, if your looking into hybrid system like Honda mostly only knew as powerful but not very reliable & cost effective for long term use if compared to Toyota Hybrid system.

Until today Toyota hybrid system still remain the best from Japan, even for aftermarket hybrid parts also easier & cheaper to get & fix compare to Honda.

May I know what makes you lean towards the HRV? I am also in the same situation. Already booked the Corolla Cross Hybrid not too long ago.

Admittedly at first glance the HR-V is a looker. But the more I look at the cross, it grew on me. HR-V has a smaller boot space, lower headroom. Overall I think the Cross would feel more roomy just because of the higher roofline.

As for reliability, most would definitely agree that Toyota is king. I would also think that the toyota's hybrid system is more mature.

But I hate the ugly foot parkign brake and the cheapo infotainment in the corolla.

Honestly, mine is mainly on the looks. But in terms of specs wise, I could not agree with you more on the parking leg break and the so called “after market” infotainment. Even the camera (with 360 degrees view) looks hideous to my eyes. Not forgetting you have to plug ur cable (for apple CarPlay or android auto)directly into the panel itself which can be an eye sore

In terms of the active safety features, I feel that Honda sensing is a wee more matured in terms of the way it slows down and picks speed back up again on the ACC as to compared to Toyota safety sense. TSS breaks to hard and there is a lag in picking up the throttle. I have actually test drove My friend’s new Honda Civic RS using the active ACC quite a fair bit. Another let down of Cross is the leg break on the ACC.. for Honda, when u come to a halt, the car can continue to pick speed back up. For the cross, you have to start the ACC system all over again.

That all aside, I initially booked Toyota due to its reliability of the engine and the name sake. Haha

Just arrived
Its roomier cos is C segment (built on TNGA-C)

Roomier than HRV? Based on review HRV current interior is quite spacious already.

a. New Cross
b. Old HRV passing to my son.
c. New HRV launching <- this has smallest interior

HRV leaked specs from fesbuk

Any news on the projected pricing ?

Nope. but indicative price is around 118-138k

Got also info from salesman that the preview tomorrow will be 'V' variant i.e. the highest turbo spec.

Those booked that variant can go and have a look.

Thanks for the info on the pricing. Quite surprised Honda is actually previewing the V specs instead of the RS. But having said that, it’s going to be the most hot selling variant nonetheless.

I guess its due to the RS i.e. Hybrid variant will only be available 1 month after launch just like the City RS hybrid. So its more realistic to display the V variant

oh? damn. I didn't know. Thanks for the info! TIL xD

Just went for the preview, the display unit is the 'V' spec.

- Front grille -> RS style without the chrome highlights (Refer to the pic attached below)
- No power boot, only RS gets power boot.
- Rims same as the RS rims (18inch dark grey rims)
- Sequential signal
- Overall interior quality much more premium, big step up from the previous HRV.

Can't comment much as there's only 10mins for viewing time since the queue is very long.

we can go inside? how spacious compare to old HRV?

Interior space should be similar to previous HRV in terms of spaciousness. Boot wise slightly smaller compared to previous gen.

Yes, can go inside but only limited to 10mins and need to queue.

So HRV or Corolla Cross better?

Do you think the interior can be comparable to say a Civic? I understand HR-V is technically a B-segment but from the outside at least it looks like a jacked up Civic rather than a jacked up City to me

Can't comment as I've not looked at the Cross yet.

I would still say the interior for Civic is slightly more premium still in compared to the HRV.

Managed to ramas the Meteorite Grey RS today. My take on the all New HRV are as follows (coming from an existing owner of the 2015 HRV V trim and have also test drove the Corolla Cross Hybrid):-

1. Build quality as an overall really improved. Despite there are still quite a few hard plastic across the interior. Buttons seems to have more textile feel and loving the physical Aircond controls (speaking of the physical Aircond control, Honda did a nice touch by putting in colour variation in the temperature dials - red for hotter and turns blue for colder). I even tried slamming both front and rear doors and I must admit that they feel more solid than the Corolla Cross. Only gripe is the exhaust pipe for the RS looks hideous where there is no garnish whatsoever. Looks cheap ..tyres are 18inch 225 50 R18 Conti

2. Space wise, somewhat feels the same as the previous HRV except for the rear. Headroom seems to have reduced due to the sloping coupe like C pillar but leg room seems to increased by a wee bit. The black head roofing tend to give a more consistent feel as the rest of the interior are black. Doesn’t feel claustrophobic. Boot space however have decreased in size from previous with no spare tire (RS version only - but given a tyre repair kit). The leather seats feels comfortable but not sure it will give sufficient bolstering while driving.

3. Tech wise, Although we are not getting the 9 inch infotainment system as per the Japan and European markets, I feel that this head unit is far more superior than the Corolla Cross. The screen is bright and responsive. USB plug points are nicely placed below the Aircond dials which gives better cable management while charging or using the apple CarPlay/android auto. Reverse camera is clear with 4 angles to choose. Too bad no 360 viewing angle. We only get Honda lane watch. The 8 build in speakers is surprisingly good. Auto window only on the driver’s side.

4. According to the SA I spoke with prices are estimated ranged from RM120k to RM140k

Sorry could not give a more in-depth observation as I only managed to view it less than 10 minutes.

I heard from proton sa, price start from 120k and push up to 150k range. like civic wow!

Don’t think it will be 150k for the highest trim. The civic RS is going for 144k currently. So HRV will be priced nicely below 140k mark if not it makes no marketing sense liou

In terms of package outlook and interior HRV is better offer. Driving dynamic have to wait for HRV test drive. Corolla Cross still uses foot parking brake while HRV uses electronic parking with brake hold

Doubt it will reach the 150k price. Most info are pointing towards 118k - 138k

Great review..I'm surprised u managed to test so much things within the 10mins. For me, didnt had much time and the couldn't test the infotainment unit as the car wasn't in start mode.

This post has been edited by Area51SE: Jun 19 2022, 01:44 AM

I think will start from 128k - 148k

This post has been edited by kelvinfixx: Jun 19 2022, 07:41 AM

which branch did you go?

is there any civic in the showroom?

128k for 1.5NA is very ambitious

its using same platform as old HRV.

it is has less bootspace than old HRV.

either interior getting bigger, or the space miraculously gone missing.

Mofaz @ Damansara..

Not sure about if they have the civic there.. they technically cleared the whole ground floor for the HRV event. U can call up and check before going

Indeed 😅

I am torn between this HRV and proton x50 (and TCC).

The one aspect that make me leans towards honda cars is their magic seat arrangement.

I m currently driving honda jazz, three mountain bikes with front tyres remove plus 3 person is possible. My IKEA trip also a breeze, people thought i booked a lorry because i also do 'Personal Shopper'

Since hrv does come with magic seat, imagine the room the car provide. I think it can be a "camper car" too.

Another aspect is that here in Alor Gajah,Melaka. the Majlis Perbandaran gave hybrid car owner a free parking all year round. Just need to purchase hybrid sticker for rm10 a year. If x50 comes in hybrid variants i m sure many would eager to purchase.

Hoping the price will be on my budget or else, need to consider Proton X50 or Corolla Cross Hybrid.

Leaked spy shots from someone that visited the showroom

Proton sales staff has Honda pricing info.

Top kek.

Trying to get final lap of bookings for X50/X70 before HRV actual launch .. hehe

Because he said his boss also do Honda, Toyota and BMW. Mind must always open. He just told me the HRV low spec start from 120k plus.

X50 still need to wait 5-6 months, this really top kek.

why need spyshot when the whole SEA has this car for 6 months already

this preview is more for people to on hold their purchase of corolla cross

Does the v variety got that sunroof?

Yes, the whole SEA has the car and people know how it looks already. I can only think why Honda is still keeping it secretive is because different specs have different trims. So these spyshots are basically confirming which variant has which trim i.e. RS variant gets the Diamond Chrome Grille while V variant gets the Diamond design grille (in 'black', no chrome highlights)

All HRV variants in malaysia doesn't get any sunroof / moonroof. same applies to the Civic

Those that don't wanna go for the preview, you can probably refer to the image for the looks of each variant

Doesn’t really make sense tho
Same price range with civic FE

with SST coming, Civic FE you be looking to add around RM10k for each model

unless the Government extent if not the price is ranged there.

Yes. Not much changes in term of chassis.
If not mistaken it is similar with the new & old City/Jazz under B-Segment, also knew as Honda Global Small Car Platform since last generation.

Well, most raw material cost already went up at least 30% or even more over the past year, with weak currency everything make it worse.
Most newer model coming in later this year for sure will price up higher, just how much to decide.

Well HRV will also be increased, no?

Too bad though. Can’t escape the fact that car prices are increasing

from what SA informed that is the price with SST included.

Ah crap, i see. Can’t really imagine the price of civic after SST
Milking car prices to the max
Ambik excise duty x cukup, mau sst lagi kek

I think is 5k, not 10k

You should be correct as the price before the exemption started is around 5k different. I wonder why they put 100% exemption for ckd cars and 50% for cbu but doesn’t really reflect on the selling price.

I doubt those booked the HRV before 30th June will get SST exemption unless Honda decides to launch it before end of June.

RM120k with SST for 1.5NA from Honda City for base model....

That's a lot of over confidence in the brand and form factor compared to X50 Flagship as well as Civic and City and Corolla Cross.

Wont get SST exemption for new HRV, that's why Honda hasn't announce the price and launch date. Based model will be at 124k and RS should be at 144k-148k range I guess.

Just received whatsapp from my last service centre.

The question is will you pay RM20k more for ADAS...but much lower engine performance.

I think I will rather go for Civic or just top up a little bit and get a Corolla cross. Then the size much easier to justify.

I was genuinely surprised with the pricing. Toyota can breath a sigh of relief.

what do you mean? Honda Sensing will be available as standard across the range right?
if you buy cheapest base model also will get Honda Sensing

I think he meant, 20K from current model. from RM104K. and 1.8L engine.

Ah okay, i salah faham then

Still doubtful that SST exemption applies to HRV, I think they are clarifying with the Govt. If confirmed get, we gonna see huge influx of booking for HRV.

The center infotainment looks so buruk

Yea but it's the same for the whole ASEAN market including Thai, Indo, Philip etc.

Even the Toyota Cross has the same CRT style infotainment

I share the same sentiment, not so trustworthy salesman plus not so trustworthy government, when answer can be vague and later U turned.

USDM HRV. The irony is also sold in China as ZRV.

Yeap been seeing many SAs in Facebook trying to spread fake info claiming that HRV is eligible for SST exemption.

During the preview, Maxcom Honda Bangsar SA told me RS hybrid version selling RM135k. While V spec selling RM128k.

Hopefully thats true which is cheaper than what was estimated. The RS was initially estimated to be 140k.

My long term SA ( always purchase Honda car from him) told me officially memo out from HONDA Malaysia it’s tax exempted.

So if book now, assume long waiting till next year, we get 2022 or 2023 made?

how I know manufacture 2022 or 2023

Thats great. Bonus for us that booked early.

haha, you got book? which variant and color..

Viewed the car today but only the v version on display. Quite good actually! The only downside are those hard plastics on the dash and door panels!

Logical pricing! Honda is forcing many customers into buying the RS model! 2022 Liao how can a suv doesn’t has power boot! Omg!

Saw Thai spec with manual sunshade was like wtf this one also not auto

lol! sunroof useless. prefer panoramic roof.

still able to view? which dealer ?

I balik kampong . Viewded in one the the dealers in JB!

Keep getting us the lanewatch when in US they already removed it and replace with blind spot monitoring. Not yet ROI here?

The analogue and half digital speedometer is not ok, why not full Digital as many manufacturers have done

RS?

Only v spec on display. The rims are very good looking.

3 rd world country get 3rd world spec.

Yea, I booked the V spec turbo. Not a fan of hybrid though.

Yea, some parts of the dashboard and doorcards are actually soft touch, but it still feel hard for me.

Hopefully Honda would offer Power boot as an optional package to install after launch.

Lanewatch part i agree, No idea why Honda is offering Lanewatch instead of a proper blindspot indicator in all ASEAN markets.

The rims on the V spec is the same as the RS. Both are 18inch with the same design
