Cabin

Driving to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History will be comfortable and convenient with the 2026 Honda HR-V EX-L. Inside the cabin, you’ll have a dual-zone automatic climate control system not found on the other two trims. This allows you and your copilot to keep your temperature controls separate. The driver’s seat comes with an 8-way power adjustment, so you can find a position that supports your back even on long road trips. If aesthetics are a priority, you’ll love the HR-V EX-L’s modern, sleek design. It has leather-trimmed seating that comes in two classic colors: Black and Gray. But this model is also functional and features 60/40 split folding rear seats. This feature brings the cargo volume from 24.4 cubic ft. with the seat up to 55.1 cubic ft. of space when it is down.

Safety

On the 2026 HR-V EX-L you can expect many safety features to make driving along I-295 easier. For example driving assistive technologies such as the Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor³. You’ll also have low-speed braking control, which provides aid when move in traffic-heavy situations, as it provides alerts when it detects potential collisions. Another useful feature, especially in crowded areas, is the front and rear parking sensors. So, when you need to parallel park around Washington DC, this lets you know when your vehicle gets to close to another car or object. While these technologies are helpful for preventing collisions, you’ll also find other important protections located around the cabin, including LATCH attachments. This secures your little ones’ car seats securely. You can test out all these functions when you visit our dealership location for a test drive!
