You might see this subcompact SUV and think it wouldn't be a good choice for the snowy Portland winters, but it's actually a great choice thanks to a few key features. We don't want to sell you anything that would put you in danger at Charlie's Honda, so we've made sure the 2021 Honda HR-V is snow ready for our Waterville customers.
Real-Time All-Wheel Drive
Every trim on the 2021 Honda HR-V can be upgraded with Real-Time All-Wheel Drive. Like you might lean forward when walking up a hill but not all the time, this system can dynamically adjust how the car is "walking" in order to best suit the situation in Lewiston.
When at a stable speed, the engine switches to front-wheel drive only, increasing the efficiency of the engine and elongating the drivetrain's lifespan. When you first start rolling, Real-Time AWD quickly determines how much power the rear wheels need for ideal control. If you start climbing a hill near Auburn, the engine will send power to the back wheels to give the 2021 Honda HR-V better grip and prevent fishtailing.
Vehicle Stability Assist™ with Traction Control
These two systems work together to ensure you stay on track and don't slip off the road. Vehicle Stability Assist™ monitors wheel slippage, reducing engine power and applying brakes as necessary so you can maintain your course. Traction Control works similarly for if one of your wheels loses traction and begins spinning faster than it should. It reduces the spinning by applying brakes or reducing the engine output so that wheel can regain grip.
