Meridian Honda Examines 2019 HR-V, Passport Against Competitors
Both Honda models have clear advantages over top rivals.
MERIDIAN, Miss., March 28, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Customers continue to fill up the Meridian Honda showroom because of the vast inventory of new vehicles that are available for sale or lease. The stock of available crossover SUVs makes a strong case for garnering the most attention from potential buyers. Honda has produced a line of crossovers that can cover just about any reasonable customer need. The 2019 Honda HR-V is a subcompact crossover SUV that is well-equipped across its entire trim ladder and features a competent balance between performance and efficiency. Meridian Honda customers looking for something with a little more power and interior space can take a closer look at the all-new 2019 Honda Passport that has recently been made available. Both Honda crossovers are currently on sale at Meridian Honda.
Just because the 2019 Honda HR-V is the smallest of the manufacturer's crossover SUVs, doesn't mean it doesn't have a lot to offer. The 2019 Honda HR-V is available in five trim grades, LX, Sport, EX, EX-L and Touring. Each of them is powered by a naturally aspirated 1.8-liter, four-cylinder engine making more than 140 horsepower and nearly 130 pound-feet of torque. However, where the 2019 HR-V really shines is interior cargo volume. When the inside of the 2019 Honda HR-V ready for hauling cargo, up to 58.8 cubic-feet of volume is available. The vehicle's chief competitor tops out at fewer than 44.5 cubic-feet.
For the current model year, the 2019 Honda Passport has already made quite a name for itself at the Meridian Honda showroom. The all-new Passport is available in four trim grades, Sport, EX-L, Touring and Elite and all of them use a powerful 3.5-liter, V-6 engine. Its 280 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque make it one of the strongest performers in its class. One of the Honda crossover SUV's top competitors uses a similar power plant but tops out at 260 horsepower.
Both the 2019 Honda HR-V and 2019 Honda Passport have available trims that feature Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™. Potential customers interested in this capability will need to pick the versions of both Honda crossover SUVs above the entry-level trims.
