2018 Honda Vezel technical description:
The SUV "VEZEL" is a high-level fusion of multifaceted values that transcend the boundaries of genres. It is available in hybrid and gasoline vehicles. It is equipped with a 1.5L engine, and the hybrid vehicle is equipped with the hybrid system "SPORT HYBRID i-DCD". The hybrid vehicle is also equipped with Honda's unique 4WD system "Real Time AWD", which precisely controls the torque distribution between the front and rear wheels through electronic control. The lineup includes the hybrid vehicles "Hybrid", "Hybrid X", "Hybrid X Honda Sensing", "Hybrid Z Honda Sensing", and "Hybrid RS Honda Sensing", which are combined with a 7-speed automatic + paddle shift. The gasoline vehicles are "G", "X", "X Honda Sensing", and "RS Honda Sensing", which are combined with a continuously variable automatic (with torque converter). This time, a minor change was made and the advanced safety driving support system "Honda SENSING" is now standard equipment on all grades. At the same time, "Hybrid Honda Sensing" and "G Honda Sensing" are also available. Fine tuning of the hybrid system "SPORT HYBRID i-DCD" has been applied to achieve a smoother acceleration feel. In addition, vibration-damping material has been added to the body and optimally positioned to further improve quietness while driving. Furthermore, engine noise while driving has been reduced by reviewing the structure of the high-pressure fuel pump inside the engine. For the exterior, the design of the front bumper and grille has been changed, and in-line type LED headlights have been adopted to express a more advanced and powerful feel. For the interior, the shape of the front seats has been renewed and the stitching has been changed to further improve the holding power and texture. There are eight body colors available, including the new color "Aurora Amethyst Metallic," and five colors for the "RS."

Honda Vezel Generations:
The Honda Vezel, also known as the Honda HR-V in some markets, is a subcompact crossover SUV that has gone through a few generations since its initial launch. Here's a brief summary of its generations:
First Generation (GH; 1998-2006):
- The first generation HR-V (Hi-rider Revolutionary Vehicle) was introduced in Japan in 1998.
- It was available as a 3-door and later a 5-door model.
- It featured a 1.6L petrol engine with front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) options.
- It had a unique design blending SUV and station wagon characteristics.
- Production was discontinued in 2006.
Second Generation (RU; 2013-2021):
- The second generation marked the revival of the HR-V nameplate globally, while in Japan and China, it was sold as the Vezel. It was first introduced in Japan in late 2013.
- This generation was based on the Honda Global Compact Series platform, shared with the Honda Fit/Jazz.
- It featured a more conventional subcompact SUV design with improved interior space and practicality, partly due to Honda's center-tank layout.
- Powertrain options included 1.5L and 1.8L petrol engines, as well as hybrid versions in some markets, with FWD and AWD available.
- It received a facelift in 2018, featuring updated styling and additional features.
Third Generation (RV; 2021-Present):
- The third generation Vezel was introduced in 2021. For the global market (including Japan), it retains the Vezel name. A larger, distinct model based on the eleventh-generation Civic is sold as the HR-V in North America and China, and as the ZR-V in other markets.
- The global third-generation Vezel features a sleek and modern design with a focus on a coupe-like silhouette.
- It offers improved interior design and technology, including a new infotainment system.
- Powertrain options include a 1.5L petrol engine and Honda's e:HEV hybrid system, with both FWD and AWD configurations available depending on the market.
- It incorporates advanced safety features and driver-assistance systems under the Honda Sensing suite.
In summary, the Honda Vezel/HR-V has evolved from a quirky, compact crossover in its first generation to a more mainstream and stylish subcompact SUV in its second and third generations, offering a blend of practicality, fuel efficiency, and modern features. The third generation sees a divergence in the models sold under the HR-V name in different global markets.
