The Honda ZR-V range now opens at $37,900 drive-away for 2025, thanks to a $2000 price cut.

    The rest of the mid-sized SUV range is unchanged in terms of pricing, and Honda hasn’t confirmed any specification changes.

    It’s the latest price cut for the bottom end of the ZR-V range.

    At launch in 2023, the VTi X was priced at $40,200 drive-away. This was subsequently reduced to $39,500 drive-away in 2024, with a new VTi X+ featuring blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert added and priced at $39,900 drive-away.

    The VTi X was subsequently dropped, as was the VTi L that was effectively supplanted by the VTi L+.

    Honda categorises the ZR-V as another mid-sized SUV, slotting in under the larger (but still mid-sized) CR-V.

    The company delivered 4092 ZR-Vs last year, making it more popular than the smaller HR-V (3350 deliveries) but slower selling than the CR-V (5547 deliveries).
