Notes and sources

  1. Fuel economy: EPA combined test-cycle figure for the configuration HR-V FWD (26 city, 32 highway). EPA data dated 2026-06-15, the date EPA wrote the workbook in 26data.zip.
  2. CO₂: EPA's tailpipe rating for the car driven as rated on the test cycle — 311 g/mi, or 193 g/km.
  3. Fuel cost: EPA's own annual estimate for this car is $1,750, on EPA's assumptions. At this week's price it is $2,129: 13,800 mi a year at the EPA combined figure, priced at $4.319 per gallon — the U.S. Energy Information Administration's weekly U.S. average for regular gasoline, all formulations, on 2026-09-14. Five years at that price: $10,643. Both are estimates; neither is a measured figure.
  4. Power: 158 hp is the rated figure, from EPA test-car data.
  5. Crash rating: NHTSA's overall rating for the front-wheel-drive 2026 HR-V — frontal 5, side 5, rollover 4 stars. NHTSA data as of 2026-09-10.
  6. Recall campaigns: NHTSA lists none for the 2026 HR-V as of 2026-09-10.
  7. Complaints: NHTSA holds 14 for the 2026 HR-V, 2 of which describe a crash, fire, injury or death. The rate per 10,000 built is not computed: not published in this market-year — complaint_rate: no row in this market-year carries it from a source that measures it (0/392).
  8. Kerb weight: the crash-tested vehicle (NHTSA NCAP), 3,243 lb (1,471 kg); corroborated by the EPA test weight.
  9. EPA test weight: 3,500 lb (1,588 kg) is the equivalent test weight class EPA tested this configuration at, not the kerb weight.
  10. Warranty: not carried. The warranty table compiled from each maker's published statement has no verified entry for Honda for 2026 in this market.
  11. Registrations: 10,123 HR-Vs of this model year on New York's roads, from the NY DMV registration file as of 2026-09-02.
  12. This car is measured on the petrol scale: miles per gallon, the tailpipe CO₂ rating and whole-car horsepower. MPGe and charge-weighted CO₂ are electric-scale quantities and do not apply to it.
  13. Price: no free, resellable source publishes a price for any 2026 car sold in the United States, so none is shown for any car in this market.
