This car has one of its kind provokes us to provocative, fun and fast driving. He likes to many at first glance, but on closer acquaintance can not disappoint even the most hardened skeptic. Honda HR-V - Car vivid and memorable. He legitimately claim a place among the other distinguished representatives of the automotive high fashion. I have never seen even one person who responded to the exterior of the HR-V negative. And a car like a sly fox screwed up little face, ready at any moment of unexpected surprises and another - an aggressive sports coupe that can not only fast travel, but also to deliver his master away from civilization, deep into wilderness. Design of the car is worth to stop for him and feel his eyes to the HR-V a subconscious love and sympathy. Acute sphenoid front with round-optics and a black mustache, the air intake in the front bumper extends to the rear. Large glass area not only contributes to good visibility, but also greatly enhances visual internal cabin space and a vertical block of the rear lights, the elegant roof spoiler, and circles the body proshtampovka gives HR-V light agility and sportiness. Cabin interior, made in blue-gray tones, also reflects the sporting temperament car. Immediately I want to note the form of well-designed front seats with excellent lateral support, convenient and informative lever 5-speed manual gearbox (can be installed and continuously variable automatic transmission with continuously variable CVT), as well as a great pilot seat ergonomics. For a complete happiness is not enough just adjust the driver's seat height, although two standard - and the longitudinal tilt the seat back - enough to accommodate normal person of any stature. Superb visibility HR-V is limited when reversing too high the bottom of the glass, and only the mirrors remain loyal aides. Domestic interior design perfectly blends with the exterior of the car - the characteristic roundness of the front optics continues in the form of the instrument panel hood, front and rear head restraints. All these details to set up a friendly mood and elation while riding on HR-V. In the car, set all sorts of pockets, niches and "glove compartment" - in their HR-V so much, that was enough for a passenger cruise liner. And what expanse in the cabin for the feast - only coasters 5 pieces, rest - I do not want! In the gallery of the car comfortably accommodate three passengers, but by and large they do not really envy and - for boarding and alighting from the HR-V you need a good athletic skill. Because the threshold level is raised above the ground more than 19 inches, and place in order to penetrate the rear seats is not enough. To fix this a little, was developed a very successful design of the front passenger seat that slides forward when the fall spinka.Obem luggage at HR-V (285 hp) is quite sufficient to get everything you need for a weekend in the countryside - bags with food, sleeping bags, tent, grill and other "belongings." And if this place is small, the rear seats fold 50:50, greatly increasing the useful amount of luggage, so the car can put even an inflatable boat. Very useful and functional pockets for all sorts of trivia and a loop for attaching luggage, so he did not jump while moving. That is what brings us to the subject of driving performance and handling Honda HR-V. On the basis of its direct purpose - a car for an active lifestyle (SUV), HR-V shows a decent set of suspensions. They are certainly harsh, though good work out uneven road surface, preventing the so-called "breakdowns". Greater smoothness of movement and contribute to high-profile Japanese tires Yokohama A348 205/60 R16, upon which the motion is based on a slight noise. Also, while driving on uneven sloping at a speed exceeding 60 km / h is a strong vertical buildup of the body - HR-V, like a playful kid, naughtily kicks (because of the short base 235 cm Short-and shock absorbers). In cornering the car feels absolutely predictable, as befits a front wheel drive car - while holding down the accelerator pedal HR-V zanyrivaet in turn, with the discharge of gas - obediently comes out of it. Although still not be too carried away by the speed of passing bends - it's an SUV with high ground clearance, and body roll in extreme cases reach considerable angles. DPS - wheel drive transmission HondaIstoriya create AWD Honda is quite interesting. It was developed at a time when there existed the principle of auto-connect the rear axle through viskomufty. Its operating principle lies in the fact that the drive wheels slip clutch plates begin to rotate at different rates, contributing to the appearance of friction between the discs and the liquid. Friction causes the temperature rise and, consequently, increase the viscosity of the fluid, blocking each other clutch plates and redistributing torque to the wheels, do not lose their grip. However, this design has one significant drawback - a rather belated inclusion of rear axle, with the active slip perednego.Konstruktory Honda went much further and radically changed viskomufty and how it works. The new all-wheel drive transmission DPS - Dual Pump System works by changing the oil pressure in the clutch, which circulates through the system, oil lines with bypass valves. In the sleeve there are two oil pumps, one of which is "tied" to speed the front (main lead) wheels, and the second - rear-attached. As soon as the difference between wheel speeds up to 2.5%, oil pressure, arising because of differential productivity pump activates the valve mechanism associated with multi-disc clutch. This principle has yielded almost permanent drive on slippery roads and economical monoprivod - to dry, and fusion of transitions Mode 2 WD mode 4WD possible to achieve excellent handling. The driver does not even always feels like a transition from a regime in 4WD mode 2 WD, and vice versa. DPS-wheel drive transmission is installed in vehicles for recreation (SUV) - CR-V and HR-V, as well as on models of Honda, intended only for the domestic market. As for the brakes, this fashionable car, it would seem, must be equipped with modern and high-performance disk system. Not at all - the Japanese designers decided to provide the car only the front ventilated disc brakes and rear conventional set - drum. But that quality has suffered no braking - even at high speeds the car slowed down steadily, thanks in no small measure contributes to the serial installation of ABS. Pleasant surprise of the good quality of the parquet terrain SUV (an international term limit - SUV), we tested the dune sand quarry. Honda HR-V without too much difficulty conquered the roads, but if it starts to slip the front wheels through viskomufty DPS pump system was connected to the work and the rear axle, pulling the car and stubborn test driver from the depth of the sand. But do not forget that it is still lightweight SUV, which does not have features such as the famous Hummer and by and large good only in order to bring the owner and passengers into the center of a Sunday picnic. Yes, and long work viskomufty DPS (over 20 min.) Undesirable. Heart Honda HR-V - petrol engine 1.6-liter four-valve per cylinder, one camshaft and 105 hp Maximum torque is achieved at 3400 rev / min, so the "rank and file to" motor car accelerates briskly enough, but the "top" efficiency is lost, forcing the driver to switch to a higher gear. The limits of the engine comes on the speed of 160 km / h - more HR-V is not accelerated. For connoisseurs of dynamic driving this may seem enough, so Honda offers for this model and a more powerful 16-valve 1.6-liter power unit 125 HP, equipped with the famous system of variable valve timing (VTEC). Honda HR-V, at first seeming frivolous avtomobilchiki, on closer acquaintance turned out to be quite reasonable, comfortable and versatile vehicle, which can easily seem like a secular society, and in the realm of wilderness.
