Honda ZR-V 2024 review: Long-term test of petrol-powered VTi LX flagship rival to Mazda CX-5 Akera

The 2024 Honda ZR-V is an all-new SUV that's stuck in the middle. Below it is the second-generation HR-V small SUV and above it is the sixth-generation CR-V mid-size SUV. As such, the Japanese brand's latest model is a segment-straddler, which is great news if you're a family car buyer that wants to balance size with practicality.

As such, the ZR-V finds itself going tyre to tyre with the popular Mazda CX-5, which is also attempting to offer families a more premium driving experience. So, what is the Honda like to live with? CarsGuide Contributing Journalist Andrew Chesterton has spent three months living with its petrol-powered flagship, the VTi LX, to find out.

In this expert, long-term review, he goes into detail about the ZR-V VTi LX's value equation, design, practicality, engine, fuel consumption, safety and ownership credentials as well as sharing his all-important driving impressions.
