Honda HR-V Wins Green Car Journal's 2016 Green SUV of the Year Award

Each year, more and more automakers strive to create vehicles that are efficient and eco-friendly without compromising power, performance, or design. Few succeed as well as Honda does, however. And thanks to the automaker's efforts to create such a vehicle, Hall Honda Virginia Beach is excited to announce that the Honda HR-V was officially named the “2016 Green SUV of the Year” by Green Car Journal.

Who qualifies?

When Green Car Journal wants to honor vehicles for this prestigious award, it looks at qualities like environmental performance, fuel economy rating, and emissions levels. Since 1992, the magazine has made various outreach efforts to educate consumers on better and more environmentally positive vehicle choices.

2016 Honda HR-V

The all-new HR-V was the perfect choice for this smart award. It was recognized for its class-leading environmental performance—a top fuel economy rating of 35 mpg highway (2WD CVT) and additional designation as an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle (LEV2 ULEV).* In addition to these green features, you can also get the HR-V with an all-new continuously variable transmission (CVT) that delivers both fuel efficiency and fun-to-drive performance at a high level.

This model is perfect not only for those who are passionate about the environment, but also for those who appreciate a car that boasts space, utility, comfort, sporty driving dynamics, and class-leading fuel economy ratings. (So...pretty much everyone.)
