New details confirmed for Honda HR-V SUV ahead of February 2015 arrival.

Honda has confirmed most specs, but not pricing or fuel consumption figures for the new HR-V small-SUV, which arrives in local showrooms in February next year.

The HR-V will join the ultra-competitive small SUV segment taking on the likes of Mazda's upcoming CX-3 and Renault Captur, as well as the existing Holden Trax, Nissan Juke and Ford EcoSport.

The Jazz-based SUV will be available in three trim levels - VTi, VTi-S and VTi-L - with each powered by a 105kW/172Nm 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol engine and driven by a CVT automatic transmission.

Like the Jazz, the entry-level VTi will include a standard reversing camera, Honda's 'Magic Seats' system, Display Audio multimedia system with seven-inch screen plus all the usual connectivity options and LED tail lights. Daytime running lights and 16-inch alloys also feature.

The VTi-S adds blind spot monitoring, autonomous emergency braking (AEB), auto wipers, LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, push-button start, leather steering wheel and 17-inch alloys.

The top-spec VTi-L builds on the VTi-S with front and rear parking sensors, panoramic sunroof, paddle shifters, leather seats, chrome handles, dual-zone climate control and unique 17-inch alloys.

The VTi-L can also be optioned with the 'Advanced Driver Assist System', which adds forward collision and lane departure warnings as well as automatic high-beam.

A turbodiesel drivetrain is likely to follow the initial petrol models, however Australia will probably miss out on the hybrid version available in Japan.
