2026 Honda HR-V

2026 HONDA HR-V IN ANNANDALE, NJ

If you’re looking for a small SUV that feels perfectly sized for winding backroads, busy mall parking lots, and weekend getaways across Central New Jersey, the 2026 Honda HR-V is ready to impress. It’s agile and easy to park, yet surprisingly roomy inside. It’s comfortable and refined, yet smartly efficient. And with available all-wheel drive and advanced safety tech, it’s built to handle everything from daily commutes on Route 22 to winter mornings on I-78.

At Clinton Honda in Annandale, NJ, you’ll find a strong selection of new Honda HR-V models, including LX, Sport, and EX-L trims. Whether you’re coming from Clinton, Somerville, Flemington, or even Easton, PA, our team can help you match the right HR-V to your lifestyle, budget, and driving needs.

Discover how the 2026 Honda HR-V can upgrade your time on the road—and why so many local drivers choose Clinton Honda when it’s time for a new crossover.

PERFORMANCE

Everyday power with confidence for all seasons

Under the hood of every 2026 Honda HR-V is a responsive 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower. It’s paired with a smooth, continuously variable transmission (CVT) that keeps the engine in its sweet spot, helping you accelerate confidently onto the highway while maintaining excellent fuel efficiency.

This combination gives the HR-V the kind of power you need for real-world driving around Central New Jersey: enough oomph for merging on I-78, passing slower traffic on Route 31, and climbing rolling hills toward nearby parks and reservoirs—without sacrificing the fuel economy that saves you money at the pump.

Available Real Time AWD for changing New Jersey weather

Front-wheel drive comes standard, but many drivers in and around Annandale appreciate the available Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System. This system is always monitoring traction and can automatically send power to the rear wheels when the system detects wheel slip, helping you stay sure-footed on rain-soaked roads, gravel parking lots by the ball fields, or snow-dusted side streets.

If you commute before the plows arrive, like to visit Round Valley Reservoir or Spruce Run Recreation Area year-round, or just want added peace of mind in winter, the HR-V’s available AWD system is a smart upgrade.

Smooth, composed ride and confident handling

The 2026 HR-V rides on a sophisticated suspension setup with MacPherson struts up front and a multi-link rear design. Electric power steering helps make low-speed maneuvers—including tight parking garage ramps near Bridgewater Commons—feel light and precise, while still feeling reassuringly stable at highway speeds.

The result is a crossover that feels confident and composed over the patchwork pavement and expansion joints you’ll find on local roads, with handling that’s easy to live with whether you’re running errands around Annandale or heading into the city for a weekend.

EXTERIOR

Modern crossover style that fits right in

The 2026 Honda HR-V wears clean, modern lines with just the right amount of rugged attitude. A bold front fascia, wide grille, and sleek LED headlights give it a planted presence on the road, while its sculpted sides and gently sloping roofline help it slip confidently through the wind—and into tight parking spaces.

Standard LED headlights with auto-on/off and available LED fog lights not only look sharp, but also enhance visibility on dark, winding backroads and during stormy evening drives.

Sporty and upscale trim personalities

Each HR-V trim has its own visual personality:

  • LX: Understated and clean, with stylish 17-inch alloy wheels and a tidy, modern look that feels at home in any driveway.

  • Sport: Adds a more athletic character with 18-inch gloss-black alloy wheels, unique front and rear styling details, black exterior accents, and often a darkened grille and mirror caps for a more aggressive stance.

  • EX-L: Brings an upscale vibe with machine-finished alloy wheels, additional chrome or gloss-black details, and an available power moonroof for panoramic views on your way through Hunterdon County.

Practical touches for real life

Beyond the styling, the HR-V’s exterior is full of smart details designed for everyday ease:

  • A wide rear hatch opening makes loading groceries, sports equipment, or luggage simple.

  • Available roof rails make it easy to add bike racks, cargo boxes, or kayak carriers for weekend adventures.

  • A thoughtful ride height offers extra ground clearance compared to a sedan, making it easier to clear snow ruts and steep driveways without feeling too tall or difficult to enter.

INTERIOR & COMFORT

A surprisingly spacious cabin for five

Step inside the 2026 Honda HR-V and you’ll find a cabin that feels open and airy, with seating for up to five passengers. Clever packaging gives the HR-V generous legroom and headroom in both rows, so adults can ride comfortably up front or in the back—even on longer trips to the Jersey Shore or into Pennsylvania.

Supportive front seats and a thoughtfully shaped rear bench help reduce fatigue on extended drives. The dashboard is low and wide for a clear view of the road, and controls are logically arranged so you can focus on your surroundings, not hunting for buttons.

Thoughtful comfort features

Every HR-V comes standard with comfort and convenience features designed to make daily driving easier:

  • Automatic climate control helps keep the cabin at your ideal temperature without constant adjustments.

  • A center console with sliding armrest and storage compartment gives you a convenient place for phones, small bags, and essentials.

  • Tilt and telescopic steering column, plus easy seat adjustments, help drivers of many sizes find a comfortable position.

Upgrade to even more refinement in the EX-L

If you want your compact SUV to feel a bit more luxurious, the EX-L trim delivers:

  • Leather-trimmed seats for a premium look and feel.

  • Heated front seats to take the chill out of frosty New Jersey mornings.

  • An available driver’s seat with power adjustments that make it effortless to dial in your perfect seating position.

  • An available one-touch power moonroof that floods the cabin with light and fresh air on beautiful days.

Whether you choose the value-packed LX, sporty Sport, or upscale EX-L, the HR-V’s cabin is built to be your comfortable home base on the go.

CARGO & VERSATILITY

Room for life’s gear—big and small

One of the HR-V’s biggest strengths is how it uses its interior space. Behind the second row, you’ll find a generous cargo area large enough for grocery runs, strollers, or a week’s worth of luggage. Fold the 60/40 split rear seatbacks flat, and you unlock a long, practical load floor that can swallow larger items like small furniture, camping gear, or multiple suitcases.

With the rear seats up, the HR-V offers around 24–25 cubic feet of cargo space. Fold them down, and you’re working with roughly 55 cubic feet—enough room for a big haul from warehouse stores, moving your student into a dorm, or transporting bulky hobby equipment.

Versatility for every kind of day

The HR-V’s 60/40 split rear seats let you mix cargo and passenger space as needed:

  • Need to carry a couple of friends and their skis or snowboards to the slopes? Fold one side of the rear seat and slide longer items through.

  • Picking up a tall houseplant or a flat-pack shelf in Flemington? Fold both sides down and enjoy a low, flat floor that makes loading and unloading easy.

  • Bringing the dog along to the park? Keep one side of the rear seat folded for a dedicated pet space while still accommodating a rear passenger.

Low liftover heights and wide door openings help make the most of the HR-V’s interior volume, so you’re not fighting the vehicle when it’s time to load up.

AUDIO & CONNECTIVITY

Stay connected, entertained, and on course

The 2026 Honda HR-V keeps you connected with an intuitive infotainment system designed to integrate seamlessly with your digital life:

  • A standard color touchscreen makes it simple to access audio, phone, and vehicle settings.

  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility let you bring your favorite apps—like maps, podcasts, and playlists—right to the dashboard.

  • Bluetooth HandsFreeLink and Bluetooth streaming audio support hands-free calls and wireless music, so you can stay in touch while keeping both hands on the wheel.

In higher trims, the HR-V steps up to a larger touchscreen interface with enhanced graphics, smarter shortcuts, and additional connected features to make every drive smoother and more enjoyable.

Wireless convenience and charging

On many new HR-V models, you’ll also find premium tech features that eliminate clutter and keep your devices powered up, such as:

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, so you can leave your phone in your pocket or in the center console and still enjoy full smartphone integration.

  • A wireless phone charger in the front console suitable for many compatible devices, keeping your screen visible and your cables out of the way.

  • Multiple USB ports, including USB-C charging points, so passengers in both rows can stay charged on road trips.

With this smart tech at your fingertips, navigating to your favorite restaurant in Clinton, streaming music on the way to Hacklebarney State Park, or following real-time traffic into the city is as easy as tapping the screen.

SAFETY TECHNOLOGY

Honda Sensing: advanced protection comes standard

Every 2026 Honda HR-V is built with safety at its core. Honda Sensing—Honda’s suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies—comes standard, providing an extra layer of confidence on every trip. Depending on trim, features can include:

  • Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS): Can help apply the brakes when a frontal collision seems likely.

  • Road Departure Mitigation System: Helps detect if you’re drifting off the road and can provide steering and braking assistance.

  • Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow: Helps maintain a set following distance on the highway, even in stop-and-go traffic.

  • Lane Keeping Assist System: Gently helps keep you centered in a detected lane.

  • Traffic Sign Recognition: Can display detected speed limit and other road signs in the driver information display.

  • Auto high-beam headlights: Automatically switch between low and high beams depending on oncoming traffic and lighting conditions.

These technologies are designed to support, not replace, your attention—but they can provide timely alerts and assistance when the unexpected happens.

Blind spot awareness and parking confidence

On Sport and EX-L models, the HR-V adds blind spot information and rear cross traffic monitoring to make lane changes and backing out of driveways or crowded parking lots easier:

  • Blind Spot Information (BSI): Can alert you when a vehicle is detected in your adjacent blind spot.

  • Cross Traffic Monitor: Helps watch for traffic approaching from the side when you’re backing out of a space.

On select models, available Low-Speed Braking Control can even help apply the brakes when the vehicle detects objects at low speeds during parking maneuvers, enhancing peace of mind in tight situations.

Robust structure and airbags

Beyond the advanced electronics, every HR-V is engineered with a strong body structure and multiple airbags. Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body design helps manage energy in certain frontal crashes, while multiple front, side, and side curtain airbags help protect occupants.

From daily school drop-offs in Annandale to longer family road trips, the HR-V is built to help protect what matters most.
