The facelifted HR-V keeps the same powertrain, featuring a 1.5-liter Atkinson cycle engine paired with an e-CVT and two electric motors. It delivers 131 PS and 253 Nm of torque, with a claimed fuel efficiency of 25.6 km/l. The engine works as a generator, while a larger motor powers the front wheels, with a lock-up clutch for direct drive at high speeds.

Though the facelifted HR-V will debut in Thailand this year, Honda fans in the UAE may have to wait longer, as it's not expected to launch there soon.

Verdict

The facelifted Honda HR-V is set to debut in Thailand with refreshed styling and upgraded tech features, but UAE enthusiasts will likely need to wait longer for its arrival. The updates, including a new design and the continued use of its efficient hybrid powertrain, make it a notable improvement while maintaining its strong performance and fuel efficiency.
