New Honda HR-V for Sale in Downtown LA

Your Downtown LA Honda HR-V Dealer

The Honda HR-V is Honda's smallest SUV — a subcompact crossover that's purpose-built for the kind of driving and parking Downtown LA demands. At 179.8 inches long with a 17.3-foot turning circle (the same Honda quotes for the Civic), it fits in spaces that compact crossovers like the CR-V can't. Powered by a 2.0-liter, 158-horsepower engine paired with a CVT, the HR-V returns up to 26 city / 32 highway / 28 combined MPG and starts at $26,500.

New Century Honda in Glendale is the closest Honda dealer to Downtown LA — approximately 8 miles north via the 5 or 110 Freeway, with full HR-V inventory across LX, Sport, and EX-L trims in both FWD and AWD. We serve the Arts District, Little Tokyo, Financial District, South Park, Historic Core, and the rest of DTLA.

HR-V Fuel Economy & MPG

What that means for DTLA driving

Based on $5.00 per gallon and 10,000 annual miles, a 28-MPG HR-V FWD uses approximately 357 gallons a year — roughly $1,785 annually on fuel. The HR-V's annual fuel cost lands between a Civic LX (~$1,390) and a CR-V (~$1,665) — the small trade-off for slightly more cargo room and ground clearance than the sedan.

Fuel cost estimates are illustrative and based on $5.00 per gallon; actual costs vary with current gas prices and driving conditions.

Why Downtown LA Drivers Choose the HR-V

The HR-V's pitch for Downtown LA is dimensional. At 179.8 inches long — five inches shorter than the CR-V — it slots into spaces that compact crossovers struggle with. That difference is everything when you're in a 1920s-era parking garage off Hill Street, a tight subterranean lot in the Arts District, or a parallel-only block in Little Tokyo. The 17.3-foot turning circle (same as the Civic) means U-turns on Spring Street or Broadway are feasible without a three-point reset.

For DTLA loft dwellers who use a car mostly for weekends, Costco runs, and occasional trips out of town — and don't need the cargo room of a CR-V — the HR-V LX at $26,500 is the most accessible new Honda SUV in the lineup. For young professionals stepping up from a sedan to their first SUV, the 8.4-inch ground clearance handles the steep driveways of Bunker Hill apartment buildings and the elevated entries common in newer mixed-use construction without the daily-driving size penalty of a larger SUV.

Real Time AWD on Sport or EX-L is a genuinely useful option for drivers who occasionally head to the mountains for weekend ski trips or take Pacific Coast Highway in winter weather — but for nearly all daily DTLA driving, the FWD version's 28 combined MPG is the better economic call.
