2027 Honda HR-V Interior, Cargo Space and Dimensions
The 2027 Honda HR-V gives you five seats, 24.4 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up and 55.1 cubic feet when both rear seatbacks are folded.1 LX, Sport and EX-L share the same useful footprint, but their seating materials and daily comforts differ. We can help you compare those choices at Rensselaer Honda before you settle on a trim.
A compact SUV has to work in the places you use it most. Think about Hoosick Road parking, a weekday drive toward Albany, and whether the rear seats stay occupied when you pack for a weekend away. We start with that seating-and-cargo decision, then help you compare the upholstery and convenience features you will use regularly.

2027 Honda HR-V Interior and Dimension Specs by Trim
Explore the measurements that stay consistent across the HR-V range, then open the individual LX, Sport and EX-L panels to compare cabin equipment. The goal is to see which upgrades change your experience, not hunt through repeated specifications.

Shared Foundation
The Dimensions and Technology Shared by Every HR-V
All three trims provide the same cargo capacity and basic passenger arrangement. The distinguishing features are inside the cabin.
LX, Sport and EX-L each seat five and have a 60/40 split-folding second row, the same published cargo measurements and the same 9-inch display with wireless smartphone integration2. That gives you freedom to select a trim for its comfort features rather than worrying about losing luggage space.

One Cargo Footprint, Three Different Cabin Experiences
You do not need Sport or EX-L to get the HR-V’s full cargo volume or available AWD. Moving up makes sense when you want heated seating, improved driver conveniences or more interior adjustment.
Exterior Footprint
Will the HR-V Fit Your Garage and Parking Space?
The three trims have equal body length and width; Sport stands slightly higher.
Every 2027 HR-V is 179.8 inches long and 72.4 inches wide as measured by Honda. Sport stands 63.8 inches tall and has 7.3 inches of unladen ground clearance; LX and EX-L are 63.4 inches tall with 7.0 inches of clearance. Use these figures as a starting point, then allow room for mirrors, door swings and the open liftgate.

The Garage Check Matters More Than the Spec Sheet
We recommend checking your actual parking opening and the space behind the vehicle for raising the hatch. Published body width is not a measurement of mirror-to-mirror clearance.

Seat Measurements and Cargo Volume Across LX, Sport and EX-L
The EX-L moonroof affects published front headroom; rear passenger measurements remain consistent.
LX and Sport provide 39.4 inches of front headroom, compared with 38.4 inches in EX-L. Rear legroom measures 37.7 inches throughout the lineup. These numbers help you compare vehicles on paper, but a rear-facing child seat, a tall driver or a rigid storage bin deserves a direct fit check. The 60/40 rear seatback lets you fold only the side needed for longer cargo; Honda does not provide a separate volume figure for that mixed configuration.

Check Passenger Space Before Folding a Seat
The full 24.4-cubic-foot area sits behind an occupied rear bench. Folding the complete second row creates the 55.1-cubic-foot maximum, with seating available only in front. A partial fold is useful when you need a longer loading path and still have a rear passenger.
LX Interior
LX Cabin: Useful Technology Without Extra Trim Cost
Cloth upholstery and manual driver adjustments give LX a straightforward feel.
LX starts with Black or Gray Cloth, a manually height-adjustable driver seat and the same core wireless connectivity as the upper trims. It is a practical place to begin if your priorities are useful interior space, familiar controls and an uncomplicated daily setup.

Why LX Deserves a Seat Test
LX keeps the full HR-V cargo arrangement. Spend time checking its seat adjustment and fabric feel; those are more meaningful differences to experience than another glance at the shared luggage figures.
Sport Interior
Sport Cabin: The Everyday Comfort Step
Heated front seats and remote start are useful additions for the colder months around Troy.
Sport introduces heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, orange-stitched Black Cloth and six speakers. Remote engine start and Blind Spot Information with Cross Traffic Monitor add convenience and awareness beyond the appearance changes. You still get single-zone automatic climate control; dual-zone temperature settings are reserved for EX-L.

Where Sport Changes the Daily Drive
For a commute that starts on a cold morning, heated seats and remote start are useful upgrades. Sport’s cabin also feels more distinctive, without requiring a larger SUV or changing the cargo configuration.
EX-L Interior
EX-L Cabin: Tailor the Driver’s Space
More seating adjustment and separate temperature controls are the defining advantages.
EX-L combines leather-trimmed seating, an eight-way power driver seat, dual-zone automatic climate control and a one-touch power moonroof. The moonroof reduces Honda’s stated front headroom by one inch compared with Sport, so we encourage taller drivers to sit in both trims before deciding.

Use the Driver’s Seat to Decide on EX-L
EX-L is the better direction when precise seat adjustment, leather-trimmed seating and different temperature preferences for the front occupants matter. Compare your actual seating position in Sport and EX-L to judge whether the comfort gains justify the step up.

Cargo Space in Pictures
Compare the HR-V Cargo Area With Seats Up or Folded
The photos below show two useful cargo arrangements: the rear seats upright and one section of the 60/40 split rear seatback folded. The first keeps all five seating positions available; the second makes a longer loading area while retaining part of the rear row. Folding both rear seatbacks creates Honda’s published 55.1-cubic-foot maximum, but that fully folded setup is not pictured here.
Rear Seats Upright
The upright rear row leaves 24.4 cu. ft. for groceries, bags and everyday essentials.
60/40 Split Rear Seat
Lower a portion of the second row when an item needs extra length but a rear passenger still needs a seat.
These views represent different seat arrangements, not exact measuring diagrams. Actual clearance depends on the item and the hatch opening.

Passenger Room & Loading
Test the HR-V’s Passenger Room Against Your Real Routine
Start With the Driver and Rear Passenger
Set the driver seat where you normally sit, then check the second-row space directly behind it. This gives you a much better sense of comfort than measuring the rear seat with the front seat pushed forward. Tall drivers should also try EX-L to check its lower front headroom.
Check the Actual Child-Seat Installation
If you use a child restraint, bring it and follow both the vehicle and restraint instructions. Verify correct installation, nearby buckle access and the position of the front seat. Listed shoulder room does not prove that three restraints will fit side by side.
Load the Bulkiest Item You Carry
A folded stroller or a pet carrier tells you more than volume alone. We can help you check the opening, floor length and space between wheel wells on an available HR-V. Make sure the liftgate can close without pressing against the item.
For a full passenger load, keep the rear seat upright and use the separate cargo bay. When only one or two people are traveling, the folded-seat arrangement handles longer items. Every load still needs to be positioned and secured without interfering with passengers.

Common Interior Questions
2027 Honda HR-V Interior, Dimensions and Cargo FAQs
How much cargo space does the 2027 Honda HR-V have?▼
The 2027 HR-V has 24.4 cubic feet behind the second row and 55.1 cubic feet with the entire rear row folded. Those published capacities apply to LX, Sport and EX-L. Cargo volume follows Honda’s SAE J1100-based measurement method.
Does the 2027 Honda HR-V have a third row?▼
No. The 2027 HR-V has two rows and five seating positions. Folding the entire second row leaves the two front seats available for passengers.
How long and wide is the 2027 Honda HR-V?▼
All three trims measure 179.8 inches long and have a Honda-listed width of 72.4 inches. That width is not a mirror-to-mirror garage-clearance measurement; allow additional space for mirrors and door access.
What interior colors are available on the 2027 HR-V?▼
LX offers Black or Gray Cloth. Sport has Black Cloth with orange contrast stitching. EX-L offers Black or Gray Leather-trimmed seating. Check the specific vehicle’s window sticker to confirm its upholstery.
Does the 2027 HR-V EX-L have less headroom?▼
Yes. Front headroom measures 38.4 inches in EX-L and 39.4 inches in LX and Sport. Rear headroom measures 38.0 inches across all three trims. Sit in your preferred trim with the driver’s seat adjusted to your normal position.
Which 2027 HR-V trims have heated seats and leather?▼
Sport and EX-L include heated front seats. Leather-trimmed seating is standard on EX-L; Sport uses cloth. EX-L also includes an eight-way power driver’s seat.
Will my stroller or pet crate fit in the HR-V cargo area?▼
Bring the item or its dimensions to Rensselaer Honda in Troy. We can help you check the hatch opening and usable cargo floor with the rear seats arranged how you plan to drive. The cubic-foot rating alone does not establish whether a rigid item fits.
