Summary
Recommended. Funky alternative to mainstream people-carriers with innovative three-abreast seating front and rear.
Styling
Boxy, square and useful - not the sort of thing to set pulses racing.
Handling
It drives impressively well for a people-carrier with a decent chassis and agile responses.
Comfort
Wind and road noise become a bit obvious at higher speeds, but the suspension is good at defusing bumps and bangs.
Quality
Screwed together with the usual Honda thoroughness, but some of the interior trim lacks a quality feel.
Performance
Basic 1.7 litre petrol engine is adequate, 2.0 litre petrol is better - but its the 2.2 litre turbo diesel at the top of the range that impresses most..
Roominess
Three-abreast seating at the front takes a bit of getting used to with full-sized occupants, but the wide rear seat works well. Bootspace is good, too.
Costs
Fuel economy is respectable on the petrols and good for the diesel version, although servicing will be pricier than most rivals. Depreciation is also fairly steep for a vehicle of this type.
Value
Reasonable standard equipment means the FR-V offers respectable value as a new purchase, but basic versions come with cheap-looking plastic wheel trims in lieu of alloys.
Stereo
The standard audio system performs reasonably, although sound quality is noticeably worse for rear seat occupants. Sat nav only available on range-topping
