The outputs are more modest than the price, with the e:Hev at almost 55 grand.

Honda promises a sporty driving experience, and a 1.5L engine that never needs the cam chain replaced. The CVT has had improvements, but is still a CVT.

The e:Hev uses a 2.0L naturally aspirated petrol engine, and a 2-motor electric hybrid system. We’ll know more once we’ve driven it.

Honda’s sales model means the ZR-V is the same price regardless of where you live, excluding on-roads of course. Configure your Honda ZR-V HERE:
