Rear suspension

Article says:

"The five-door was 110 mm longer overall, with a 100 mm longer wheelbase (2,460 mm). Suspension on all models was via MacPherson strut front suspension and a five-link De Dion-type rear suspension.[3]"

This is not possible. de-dion rear suspension is for a driven axle. The HR-V is only front wheel drive. Therefore the rear suspension is not de-dion. It's just a beam axle with five control links. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A442:581E:1:A0F4:C83A:499D:4ED3 (talk) 21:53, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

HR-V not HRV or H-RV

New abbreviation

Recently, I added an info about the new abbreviation of HR-V (Hip and Smart Runabout Vehicle), complete with sources from Honda itself and third-party refs. So why they're removed? @Dennis Bratland 125.160.113.5 (talk) 00:12, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It was an off-the-cuff remark by a local Honda seller. It has nothing to do with the actual name of the car. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 01:24, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge

Honda Vezel and Honda XR-V should be merged into this article. The Vezel and HR-V is the same car, feels ridiculous to have separate articles for each just because it has different letters stuck on the back of the car. For the XR-V, we've seen Honda Breeze, Toyota Wildlander and Honda Greiz not having their own article, rather as a section in Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Honda City respectively instead.

Merge. The cars only have differences in exterior design only (even the Vezel and 2nd generation HR-V are identical). The mechanicals are also mostly the same. 182.30.143.27 (talk) 13:33, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
