The Honda HR-V is easily the best selling compact SUV in the world and this is not surprising at all. The vehicle is basically the best option for an average consumer as it makes a great general car.
Powered by the 1.5L 4-cylinder engine that is mated to a CVT transmission, the HR-V is easily fuel economical. It also offers a decent performance with 170hp and 106ft-lbs of torque to share.
To complete the package, the HR-V is completed with many great features as a standard like a multi-purpose steering wheel that is completed with audio controls, cruise control, phone control as well as steering wheel adjustments.
The HR-V basically faces no real challenge from the latest Jeep Renegade. Then again, the latter is a totally different compact SUV with its own unique offerings.
In detail, the Renegade is made to be the most powerful 4WD compact SUV in the world. It is powered by a 1.4L 4-cylnder turbocharged engine and that is paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
While the Renegade might be able to climb mountains with ease, it is unfortunate to learn that the vehicle is unable to satisfy the consumers with great fuel economy. Perhaps, that needs some improving before the Renegade can compete with the HR-V.
