April 21st, 2022 02:37 PM #12i'm rooting for honda. our family had civics or accords in the 90s. my sister owns a crv diesel currently) there is a market for 1.5 gasoline powered cuvs. from the reviews i think this is a nice offering. i like the interior even if it is a bit "black". i just hope honda isn't too late to the party or priced itself out of the competition. both things they may have done in the past.

The CR-V is still far more spacious vs. the HR-V. Tons of rear seat legroom, wider but biggest upgrade is in the cargo capacity
so this will attract those who need space.
Vs. the current CR-V, the HR-V will offer better (more updated) tech and better power in a still practical package.

April 21st, 2022 06:28 PM #16Quite subjective actually. Probably for a lot of customers this has enough power. Looking forward to test driving the 1.5 base HR-V and see how it compares
to the previous 1.8. I have a feeling performance will be similar with better CVT tuning and the DOHC engine. The old 1.8 didn't really feel powerful

Just got back from a quick trip to the MG dealership near my office.
I was thoroughly impressed by the MG HS. It's the size of a CX-5 and just as premium inside (I noticed design cues from the Merc B-class -- no joke). The salesguy wasn't as knowledgeable with the product, sadly, but I do hear it's got 169hp and 250Nm which should work great with its paddle shifters (7-speed DCT).
Size, great interior, 5-star rating by Euro NCAP, plus a lot of driving aids (again, salesguy was no help), makes this a great value at about 1.2M. Couldn't cop a test drive, unfortunately, but from the bits and pieces I've seen online from the Aussies and Brits, it seems to be a decent drive (probably not as good as the Coolray or the CX-5).
It looks like the MG HS will probably be another best-seller, for sure.

The big difference in torque figure is not subjective between a gas NA engine versus a gas turbo engine. Peak torque is easily achievable in turbo engines (2k rpm vs 4k rpm) and usually, it is 60% more on similar displacements.
The ASX and the XT both have 2.0L displacements but the XT is turbocharged. There is a big difference in output on a regular drive, even if the XT is heavier.
The same comparison applies between a Honda City 1.5L NA versus a Civic 1.5L turbo.

Between the NA and Turbocharged, no questionWas referring to "Mahina yung 1.5L NA for small crossovers"
For a lot of people, this is enough. Of course more power is usually better but most car buyers are already satisfied
with this amount of power (Xpander, BR-V, Vios 1.3 level of performance).
