Fuel economy at a glance

These are the EPA's official ratings for the 2024 Honda HR-V AWD. The numbers come from a standardised laboratory test cycle and are the same figures that appear on the window sticker of every new car. Real-world mileage varies with driving style, weather, fuel quality, and how heavily loaded the car is.

Combined MPG is a 55/45 weighted blend of the city and highway test cycles. The EPA uses it as the single number you can compare across the entire dataset, including hybrids and EVs (which use the equivalent MPGe figure).

Combined MPG 27 MPG
City MPG 25 MPG
Highway MPG 30 MPG
Annual fuel cost $2,200
Tailpipe CO₂ 326 g/mi
Fuel type Regular

How the 2024 Honda HR-V AWD compares

The 2024 Honda HR-V AWD returns 27 combined MPG. Cars in the Small Station Wagons class for the same model year average 53.6 MPG, which puts this car behind the class average by about 50%.

The most efficient car in the Small Station Wagons class for the 2024 model year is the Nissan ARIYA VENTURE Plus FWD 87kWh at 103 MPG. The bar chart below puts the Honda HR-V AWD alongside the class best and the class average so you can see the full picture.

For broader context, the average new car of the 2024 model year (across all classes) returns 40.9 MPG. Larger vehicles pull the all-cars average down, so do not use that figure on its own to judge a small car or a hybrid. The full list of the most efficient cars of the 2024 model year is on its own page.

Annual fuel cost across driving patterns

The headline annual fuel cost the EPA publishes assumes 15,000 miles of driving per year and a fuel mix of 55% city and 45% highway. The dollar figure is calculated using the EPA's current reference price for regular gasoline, which is $3.99/gallon. EPA updates that reference periodically rather than tracking live pump prices, so treat it as a window-sticker estimate rather than today's pump number.

The table below scales the EPA's number to three common driving patterns. The combined MPG and the reference fuel price stay constant, only the annual mileage changes. To get a current-prices estimate, take your local gas price and multiply by 555.6 gallons (the car's annual consumption at the rated MPG).

Driving pattern Estimated annual fuel cost
Light driver, 7,500 miles per year $1,100
Average driver, 15,000 miles per year $2,200
Heavy driver, 25,000 miles per year $3,667

Specifications

The 2024 Honda HR-V AWD runs a 2-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with a automatic (variable gear ratios), sending power through all-wheel drive.

Engine, transmission, and drivetrain together drive most of the variation in fuel economy across trims. A larger engine moves the car with less effort but burns more fuel. A turbo lets a small engine punch above its weight, often without much MPG penalty. All-wheel drive adds traction and weight, and usually costs a couple of MPG compared with two-wheel drive of the same engine.
