Honda HR-V 2024 Overview
The Honda HR-V 2024 is the latest iteration of the international variant known as the Japanese Honda Vezel, now locally assembled in Pakistan by Honda Atlas Cars Pakistan Limited. It falls under the category of a subcompact crossover SUV and is offered in two variants: VTI and VTI S.
Powertrain:
The HR-V is equipped with a naturally aspirated 1.5-liter dual overhead cam engine, producing approximately 119 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque. It features a CVT transmission and is configured as a front-wheel drive vehicle. Currently, the hybrid engine option is not available.
Exterior:
The HR-V 2024 boasts a bold and aggressive exterior design. It features all-LED headlights with sequential indicators in the top variant. The body-colored front grille includes a silver garnish at the bottom, complemented by LED fog lights. The VTI S variant comes with 17-inch grey alloy rims, while the base variant includes chrome rims with 215/60/R17 GTR tires. The sides are accentuated by piano black claddings and a black roof, enhancing its modern appeal. At the rear, LED taillights with running LEDs add to its contemporary look, along with a rear wiper and a back camera.
Interior:
Inside, the HR-V offers a well-laid-out and visually appealing interior. Following Honda’s new generation design language, it features an upright dash with a minimalist layout. The VTI S variant offers three leather color options—black, cherry red, and grey—while the VTI variant comes with black fabric seats. The instrument cluster includes two analog dials and a 4.2-inch MID display. The centerpiece is a 9-inch Android infotainment system panel that integrates various features, although it does not include a panoramic roof found in many other crossovers. The interior materials are premium, providing a substantial feel to the components.
Interior Space:
The HR-V 2024 prioritizes passenger space with ample room in both the front and rear. The second row is particularly spacious, offering generous headroom and legroom, complemented by large rear windows that enhance the sense of roominess. The flat floor bed ensures sufficient leg space for the fifth passenger, while rear AC vents and roof-mounted dome lights cater to passenger comfort.
Boot Space:
As a 5-seater, the HR-V provides ample boot space for luggage. The seats fold down in a 60-40 split directly into the floor bed, maximizing the available boot capacity. Moreover, the front-fold mechanism allows for accommodating longer items in the second row.

In terms of safety, the HR-V 2024 comes with four airbags, ABS brakes, vehicle stability control, agile handle assist for maneuvers, emergency stop signal, hill descent control, and hill start assist. The vehicle’s strengthened shell enhances collision protection, reflecting its robust safety ratings.
