According to bmcnews, over the years, the Honda has gained a privileged space in the hearts and garages of Brazilian consumers. Its reputation for resilience and efficiency remains strong, attracting an audience that, although familiar with other brands, prefers the reliability that only Honda promises. I recently spent a week testing the HR-V Touring, and with each passing day, a phrase came to mind: “It’s a little more expensive, but it’s much better.”
The most basic versions of the HR-V now start at R$152.700 and can go up to R$162.300. However, when entering the category of those equipped with 1.5 turbo engine, prices jump to R$188.500 in the Advance version and an impressive R$199.800 in the Touring version, according to information on Honda's official website. Although these values are above the segment average, market interest remains high, showing that consumers are willing to pay more for the brand.

Competing directly with the Jeep Renegade Trailhawk, VW T-Cross Highline and even the most sophisticated Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid, the Honda model still stands out to many consumers.
