Japan Used Honda Hr-v for Sale

The Honda HR-V is a nameplate that Honda used on two generations of subcompact crossover SUV of Honda Models. The first generation of HR-V was based on Honda Logo and sold in Japan and selective Asian-Pacific markets between 1999 and 2006. The second generation HR-V was based on third-generation Honda Fit and went on sale in North America, Australia, Brazil, and selective Asian markets in 2015. The second generation HR-V was largely identical to Japan-market Honda Vezel which went on sale in late 2013.

The HR-V was built on the supermini platform used by the Honda Logo, while the larger CR-V was built on the Honda Civic platform. Known as one of the earliest low emissions vehicles and unique character. The Honda Hr-V Designed as the Wild and Joyfull J-WJ concept vehicle and exhibited at the Tokyo Motor Show in 1997, the HR-V emerged as a futuristic and lightweight cross-country vehicle in 1998, exclusive to Honda dealership network called Honda Verno in Japan. The Honda HR-V was soon put into production due to its popularity and marketed toward a younger demographic as the Joy Machine in 1999.

The Real Time 4WD system comes from the CR-V and uses utilizes a dual hydraulic pump rear differential, where the 4WD system is hydraulically activated when the front wheels lose traction. The HR-V also uses enhanced drive shafts and suspension. Variations were produced for Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, the Pacific Rim and for its home market of Japan.

The second-generation Honda HR-V debuted at the 2014 New York Auto Show as a concept car, with the production model unveiled later at the 2014 LA Auto Show. It shares the same platform as the third-generation Fit and is largely identical to the Vezel, which went on sale in Japan in December 2013. HR-V will be smaller than both CR-V and Pilot, again giving Honda a range with three CUVs.
