Used 2023 Honda HR-V for Sale nearGatineau, QC

How much does the 2023 Honda HR-V cost?

Prices have softened 8.16% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 273 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2023 Honda HR-V a good car?

Generally — the 2023 Honda HR-V earns a 4.4/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating, which points to a well-liked small SUV with broad appeal. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Cost effectiveness.

Owners commonly praise its smooth ride, strong feature content, and value for the price. The expert notes also back up that impression, describing it as fun to drive and more expensive-feeling than its price suggests.

The trade-offs are clear: performance is fairly pedestrian, and there’s no hybrid option. That makes the HR-V a better fit if you want a polished, practical subcompact SUV rather than something quick or especially efficiency-focused.

With the HR-V positioned as a redesigned, more modern small SUV, it makes sense for buyers who prioritise everyday usability, safety, and equipment over outright speed. The market also looks healthy, with 27.1% of listings marked as good or great deals.

Is the 2023 Honda HR-V reliable?

Owners rate it 4.4/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction. User feedback also points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with drivers highlighting the HR-V as a vehicle they can count on for everyday use.

The expert notes reinforce that sense of durability and confidence through the HR-V’s polished road manners and well-sorted design. Honda’s three-year/60,000-kilometre limited warranty and five-year/100,000-kilometre powertrain limited warranty also support the ownership picture.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about outright reliability and more about whether the HR-V’s modest performance and fuel economy will suit your needs over time.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Honda HR-V?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the most basic version, while Sport adds a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, dual-zone climate control, a power moonroof, side mirrors with integrated turn signals, and a more aggressive exterior look. EX-L is the most upscale trim, with perforated leather seats and a more premium cabin feel, though the eight-way power driver’s seat shown in the test vehicle was not available in Canada at the time.
• Powertrain: You get a single 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder engine with 158 horsepower and 138 pound-feet of torque, paired with a CVT. The HR-V is available with FWD or AWD depending on trim, and it offers Normal, Snow, ECON, and Sport drive modes.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is standard across the lineup and includes adaptive cruise control, collision-mitigation braking, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, road-departure mitigation, lane-departure warning, forward-collision warning, traffic-sign recognition, traffic jam assist, automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot information system, and rear cross-traffic alert. EX-L also adds front and rear parking sensors.
• Infotainment: Every trim gets a 7-inch digital gauge cluster and a 7-inch colour touchscreen. LX and Sport use wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while EX-L adds wireless versions, a 9-inch infotainment display, and a Qi-compatible wireless charging pad.
• Fuel efficiency: The HR-V is rated at 8.3 L/100 km combined with FWD and 8.7 L/100 km combined with AWD.

Which 2023 Honda HR-V trim should I buy?

The 2023 Honda HR-V is offered in 3 trim levels: LX, Sport, and EX-L.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the value play if you want the redesigned HR-V with standard Honda Sensing, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated front seats, and the core features that make the model appealing without stretching the budget.
• Sport: This is the best-value upgrade if you want a more polished feel, since it adds a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, dual-zone climate control, a power moonroof, and a more distinctive exterior treatment.
• EX-L: This is the trim to choose if you want the most premium cabin, with perforated leather seats, wireless smartphone integration, a larger 9-inch display, wireless charging, and extra convenience features.

Honda Sensing is standard on every trim, so even the entry model gets the full safety suite.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Honda HR-V?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you should have room to compare listings and wait for the right one.

• Deal availability: 27.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 273 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.16% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $27,994 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Honda HR-V's resale value?

The current average of $28,130 CAD sits slightly below last year's $30,630 CAD.

That softer pricing can work in your favour if you’re buying now, but it also means future resale values may depend more heavily on condition, mileage, and trim choice. If the market stays competitive, a well-kept HR-V should remain appealing to shoppers who want a practical, safety-focused small SUV.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.4/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Honda HR-V safe?

The 2023 Honda HR-V receives a Top Safety Pick+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard on every trim and includes adaptive cruise control, collision-mitigation braking, automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, road-departure mitigation, lane-departure warning, forward-collision warning, traffic-sign recognition, traffic jam assist, automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot information system, and rear cross-traffic alert. EX-L also adds front and rear parking sensors.

That standard equipment list is a major strength, especially because even the least expensive HR-V gets the full suite. The main safety caveat is that the EX-L is the only trim with parking sensors, so buyers who want the most convenience in tight spaces will need to step up.

Should I buy a 2023 Honda HR-V or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 27.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.16% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• Honda’s redesign and standard Honda Sensing make this year especially compelling.

The bottom line: If you want the most modern version of the HR-V with strong safety content and a more refined feel, the 2023 is the one to target. If you’re more price-sensitive, a nearby model year may save you money, but you’ll want to compare equipment carefully because the 2023’s redesign and standard safety suite are major advantages.
