Should I buy a used Honda HR-V now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −2.0% versus a year ago, and the 2023 model is at −3.48%.

• Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $25,849. The Honda HR-V offers a practical, spacious cabin that makes everyday driving and cargo hauling easy.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: Honda installs a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under the HR-V’s hood. It produces 158 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 138 pound-feet of torque at 4,200 rpm, and official EPA ratings say the HR-V will get 28 mpg in combined city and highway driving with front-wheel drive (FWD) or 27 mpg combined with AWD.
• Tech: For 2026, Honda increased the standard touchscreen size from 7 to 9 inches and installed a faster processor to make the screen more responsive to inputs, and the infotainment system now includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Safety: Honda equips every HR-V with Honda Sensing, a collection of driver-assistive features, and the automaker reserves a blind-spot monitoring system with rear cross-traffic alert for the Sport and EX-L trim levels.
• Starting price: The 2026 HR-V trim levels include LX, Sport, and EX-L, with pricing ranging from $27,650 to $31,500.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
