The 2022 Honda HR-V has launched in Indonesia in four variants; three are specified with the 1.5 litre petrol naturally aspirated VTEC engine producing 121 PS and 145 Nm torque, while the fourth, range-topping version is equipped with a 1.5 litre VTEC Turbo producing 177 PS and 240 Nm of torque. Both engines are mated to a continuously variable transmission.
This contrasts against the HR-V launched in Thailand, where the B-segment crossover has gone on sale as an e:HEV hybrid. This features a 1.5 litre Atkinson-cycle engine rated at 105 hp and 127 Nm of torque from 4,500 rpm to 5,000 rpm, and is combined with two electric motors powered by a lithium-ion battery.

Another level up is the HR-V E SE, priced at 399.9 million rupiah (RM117,701). Here, the SE variant packs the equipment of the E, and to which it adds sequential turn signals, a panoramic glass roof, LED fog lamps, and 18-inch alloy wheels.
Inside, the E SE variant brings a piano black trim for the power window switch surrounds, while infotainment here comes courtesy of an eight-inch capacitive touchscreen head unit. Exterior visual aids here include Honda Lanewatch and a multi-angle rear view camera; inside, LED map lights are fitted.

Adding to the kit list of the HR-V E SE variant, the Turbo RS brings a black leather interior with red contrast stitching, soft-touch interior door card sections, and a leather-trimmed steering wheel.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with myTukar.
Look like CX5. Existing HRV design looks better than this
CX5 at a cheaper price? Eh why not?
CX5 looks better too even comparison are not same
Mazda clone
Be careful…once you default in HP loans,this car will push you not only into CCRIS blacklist,it will entail bankruptcy proceedings.
I just hope us Malaysian will get the Japan/UK/Europe/Australia head unit. Not the “aftermarket” head unit like those from Thailand and Indonesia. The “aftermarket” head unit make the HRV looks cheap.
I also hope that Honda Malaysia will not make the mistake of providing wireless apple carplay but with wired charging like the Civic. It does not make sense at all.
I also hope that they can offer range topping specs that comes with a 1.5 NA engine, to keep the price reasonable. Range topping specs should not be reserved to go with a turbo engine. Not everyone will require turbo engine to go up Genting everyday. Many need this car for normal day to day usage. Not all of us are boy/girl racer.
And please do not compare the HRV with Corolla Cross. The Cross is based on c segment platform (sedan) while the HRV is a b segment. The Cross is larger than the HRV. Due to this, it will be unacceptable if Honda Malaysia priced the HRV within or close to the Cross. It is not apple to apple segment.
when RS doesnt offer any performance increase, complain its only cosmetic
when RS offer turbo engine to give more performance, complain its unecessary
always complain, tell that to european brand who give equipment based on engine power.
tell BMW to give us a full spec 320i and barebone 330i, not everybody need more power right and full spec doesnt need to be reserved for more powerful engine right?
Below is Honda UK offering for HRV. Look at trim level and compare the drive. You can opt for better trim level (better specs) with the same drive system throughout the range.
Time change, brands do not give equipment based on engine power anymore. Maybe it happens here in Malaysia, but that need to change. With internet, we can see beyond our own borders. We have the ability to compare.

150k hrv. ok.
1.5 litres NA with CVT on a relatively heavy car? This spells underpower.
Very interesting to see how well specced Hondas are in Indonesia compared to Malaysia without that big of an effect on pricing. We’re not going to get anything close to these specs because if they didn’t do it with the Civic they definitely aren’t going to with this.
Bye bye 1.8l 140ps170Nm engine. Wanna get better buy current model quickly
hopefully we will also get the sunroof here..
Great starting price and we were told stories how the HR-V will not land in Malaysia due to its steep price and will be replace with another model.
Glad the analysis is wrong and if that price matches in Malaysia sure it is gonna sell like hot coffee.
I am interested in the Hybrid variant.
we want us version. i repeat, we want us version.
Apprently top of the line hr-v malaysia market getting hybrid version. 1.5T still available but without RS. Hope Paultan can confirm if these rumours are true. Really disappointed with the offering compared to indo market
Malaysia will get 99% exactly like Indon specs. 4 variance. Price will be higher than current HRV. Top of range RS spec cud be around RM130k. Will be in our showroom by late Aug.
