The HR-V was noted for its low nitrous oxide emissions. The Real Time 4WD system, shared with the CR-V, uses a dual hydraulic pump rear differential where the 4WD system is hydraulically activated when the front wheels lose traction. Options included body colour roof rails and a large rear roof spoiler. A 285-litre cargo area was equipped with cargo hooks, a subdivided underfloor compartment, and 50:50 split-fold rear seats. Equipment featured ABS brakes with EBD ( electronic brakeforce distribution), dual SRS (supplemental restraint system) airbags, as well as folding power mirrors, power windows, folding rear seats, power steering, heat absorbing glazing, air conditioning, front fog lights and a rear spoiler with an LED center high-mounted brake light. In advance of European pedestrian protection legislation, the HR-V was designed to minimize pedestrian injuries in the event of an impact. Suspension on all models was via MacPherson strut front suspension and a five-link De Dion-type rear suspension. The five-door was 110 mm longer overall, with a 100 mm longer wheelbase (2,460 mm). Neither a five-door front-wheel drive, or a front-wheel drive model with the VTEC engine were marketed. At this time, Honda offered a 123 bhp (125 PS 92 kW) VTEC engine option for both the three and five-door four-wheel drive models.
Five door models were designated GH4 and were introduced in March 2000. In September 1999, Honda introduced a front-wheel drive, three door variant. The all-wheel drive configuration was initially available in a three-door body in February 1999 and was internally designated the GH2.
The HR-V shared its platform with the Honda Logo, and was manufactured in Suzuka, Japan. A continuously variable transmission was optional. The HR-V was subsequently marketed in Europe with either a Honda D16W1 type 1.6-litre SOHC (FWD or 4WD) or a SOHC VTEC Honda D16W5 type engine (exclusively 4WD). With minimal changes from the concept, the HR-V was marketed exclusively in Japan via Honda's Verno dealership network, aimed at a young demographic.
