    Arrow Honda hr-v

    New 2017 Honda HR-V For Sale | Johnstown PA

    Thoughts and overall experience. Just wanted to test drive and see what it had to offer. This one is quite the little package. The drive was really great. Great road feel. Decent power from the 1.4 Overall the test drive was I dare say fun. It was fun to drive. Interior was great with all the latest tech features. Exterior was not too bad either. Even tho all the crossovers look like egg`s. Honda managed to make it look decent. 3 trim levels. Drove the middle. The top tier gets you leather and navi while still staying well under 30K. Not a bad offering HONDA.

    Re: Honda hr-v

    My buddies GF traded her CR-V in for an HR-V a few weeks ago and has regretted ever since. The HRV has a cheap interior, terrible ride quality on the highway, anemic acceleration to 60 mph, and the suspension bottoms out on average potholes. For anyone seriously considering this car - make sure you take it out on the highway during your test-drive!!!

    Umph. From a owner no less. I was shocked, unless I am wrong, all the Toyota`s RAV 4`S are front wheel drive only. I found that strange.

    In this segment, I still find the JEEP RENEGADE standing out. The Nissan rogue I thought was unimpressive, but currently their best seller.

    Renegade is a fiat 500x Relabeled. This is just around town class of vehicles.

    HRV will have the best resale likely. I would consider the cx3 or HRV in that class

    What is terrible to some on he highway is just normal to others

    I had an older RAV4 and it was 4 wheel drive. I don`t know about the newer ones.

    The way I read it, only the hybrid is AWD. Rest are FWD.

    ALL RAV4`s are available with optional all wheel drive..........+$1590.
    It is standard on the Hybrid models.

    Maybe I`m just used to bigger engines, but the rated 141hp would NOT be adequate for me, lol. If they shove the 1.5 turbo in there though...

    BTW, PA, that dealer has a location in my town. Great people to deal with; fact taking the Camry up there in a little bit.

    PA, have you thought about something different, stepping out of your comfort zone?

    2017 VW Tiguan AWD

    The 2.0T is a wonderful engine, with most of its power down low where you need it. VW`s AWD system is great as well. You can get them alot cheaper than what I posted, but it was more of an example.
