The Honda ZR-V 2025 Arrived in Brazil with a High Price, Costing R$ 214,000 at Launch. However, Recently, It Underwent a Significant Reduction, Dropping to R$ 169,900. With This New Pricing, It Became a More Competitive Option in the Mid-SUV Segment. But Is It Worth Investing in Now?

The Honda ZR-V has a design that divides opinions. The front is modern, with full LED headlights, but the grille may not please everyone. Some compare it to the HB20 due to the grille’s shape, which resembles a fish’s mouth. However, in the right color, it can stand out positively.

At the rear, the look is more balanced and may please Brazilians, who enjoy a robust design. The trunk offers 389 liters, which can reach 1,306 liters with the seats folded down.

Spacious and Comfortable Interior

Inside, the Honda ZR-V offers plenty of space. Those traveling in the back seat have comfort, mainly due to the flat center tunnel, allowing three passengers to settle in better. The sunroof adds a touch of sophistication, but it could be larger.

Engine and Performance of This Honda SUV

Unlike most competitors that have already adopted turbo or hybrid engines, the Honda ZR-V retains a 2.0 naturally aspirated engine with 161 hp and 19.1 kgfm of torque, paired with a CVT that simulates seven gears.

This setup is known for its reliability but delivers less power and torque than rivals like the Volkswagen Taos and the Jeep Compass.

Weighing 1,446 kg, the ZR-V has a power-to-weight ratio of 8.9 kg/hp, which reflects in the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in about 12 seconds. This number is far from the performance of turbo models, which complete the same distance in less than 9 seconds.

On the consumption side, the figures are reasonable for a naturally aspirated engine:

City: about 8.5 km/l.
Highway: approximately 12.5 km/l.

The major issue is that the model is not flex, running only on gasoline.

Equipment and Technologies

The Honda ZR-V comes well-equipped, bringing items such as:

Adaptive cruise control (ACC).
Lane-keeping assistance.
Full LED headlights.
Comfortable seats upholstered in leather.
Side camera to assist in overtaking.

Despite the good equipment, some absences stand out:

Lack of air conditioning vents for the rear seats, something common in cheaper SUVs.
Misaligned multimedia center, facing the passenger and not the driver.
Absence of blind-spot alert, present in direct competitors.

Price and Cost-Benefit

From R$ 214,000 to R$ 169,900: what changes? The reduction of R$ 45,000 completely alters the positioning of the Honda ZR-V in the market. Previously, it competed with hybrid and turbo mid-SUVs, but now it enters the fight with naturally aspirated versions of models like the Toyota Corolla Cross and Jeep Compass.

This makes the model more appealing for those looking for a spacious, comfortable, and reliable SUV without worrying too much about performance.

Onde é encontrado por 169.000? Na minha região MG), a concessionária fica enrolando nos 214.000 e começa a apresentar vantagens, mas não chega nem a **** a 169.000. Aumenta o valor do seu usado, mas não chega nem aos pés desses 169.000. Me digam onde acha que eu compro

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.
