Honda to begin selling ZR-V SUV in April 2023

Honda Motor Co Ltd will begin selling the ZR-V, on April 21, 2023, at dealerships across Japan.

The ZR-V combines practicality, reliability, distinctive design, and a comfortable driving experience, all on a high level.

The exterior design features flowing proportions characterized by large, smooth surfaces that flow from front to rear, according to Honda.

The hybrid model of the all-new ZR-V will be the first Honda SUV to be equipped with the Sports e: HEV that combines a 2.0-liter direct injection engine that debuted on the Civic e: HEV and the advanced 2-motor hybrid system (e-CVT).

By advancing both the hardware and control software, the new e: HEV further improved fuel economy, low emission performance, and quietness compared to the previous version of e: HEV, while also realizing powerful acceleration comparable to a V6 3.0-liter engine

The all-new ZR-V e: HEV will offer a high-quality, exhilarating driving experience in various driving situations including driving on city and suburban roads, highways and winding roads.

By optimizing the distribution of front and rear driving force, the tires firmly grip the road surface, enabling the driver to feel greater peace of mind even while driving on slippery surfaces such as snowy roads.

Moreover, the increase in rear-wheel driving force enables the driver to start and accelerate with confidence even on snowy hills.

The driver can choose from four drive modes according to the driving situation: SPORT mode, NORMAL mode, ECON mode and SNOW mode.

It is available on all types, including both hybrid and gasoline variations.
