A preview of the new ZR-V, the SUV that will challenge convention

Honda is beginning the long-awaited arrival of its electrified SUV range with a preview of the Honda ZR-V, an elegant SUV with sporty characteristics that is set to become a benchmark in the C-segment.

The new Honda ZR-V e:HEV has been created for those looking for design, sportiness, technology, enjoyment, power, style and, above all, a departure from the norm in an SUV. This new Honda is a statement of style.

Positioned between the HR-V and the CR-V, this ZR-V sits at the heart of the range, combining a sporty appearance with dynamics that will leave no one indifferent. As for its powertrain, it features the hybrid system most highly praised by experts: the one used in the Honda Civic e:HEV. This system is highly efficient, using a two-litre, four-cylinder direct-injection Atkinson-cycle engine in perfect combination with the system’s two electric motors. All this comes without compromising the comfort provided by its four driving modes: Normal, Sport, Eco and the new Snow mode, for when the road surface is more slippery than usual.

Comfort is a fundamental aspect of Honda vehicles, and the new ZR-V is no exception. The experience inside this SUV is further enhanced by its impressive levels of comfort and functionality. The ZR-V features a compact layout that provides exceptional space, practicality and comfort. It creates an unrivalled atmosphere through the high quality, soft-touch materials and details combined with elegant lighting throughout the cabin. Every panel and component has been designed with visibility in mind, including its 9-inch touchscreen positioned in the centre of the upper dashboard.

The ZR-V makes a commanding and distinctive impression, with its bold front end taking centre stage. This is complemented by its slim headlights and gloss-black grille, creating a sophisticated aesthetic that is also reflected in the SUV’s flanks and the bold design of the rear bumper.

For now, this is the information that Honda has been able to share about the promising Honda ZR-V.  We will have to wait to discover everything Honda has to offer as part of its commitment to electrification, which we will bring you more details about soon.
