The New Honda WR-V
A Practical, Affordable Compact SUV Perfect for Singapore Roads
The Honda WR-V is one of the most talked-about compact SUVs in Singapore today — and for good reason. With its attractive pricing, spacious interior, low running costs, and Honda’s reputation for reliability, the WR-V X / Z / Z+ trims offer tremendous value for first-time owners, small families, and even PHV drivers looking for a fuel-efficient carrier.
As a reviewer at Royal Motor Grandeur, I’ve test-driven the WR-V across PIE, CTE, and dense city roads, and this car surprised me more than once. Here’s the complete breakdown of its price, specs, and real-world driving review.

Test Drive Review — Real Experience in Singapore
1. Surprisingly Strong Acceleration
The WR-V shares the same L15D engine used in the Honda Fit/Jazz, but tuned for better mid-range punch.
During my test drive from Ubi to KPE, it felt responsive and confident, even when overtaking.
2. Light Steering Perfect for City Driving
Parking at HDB multi-storey carparks is painless.
The turning radius is compact — honestly better than some hatchbacks.
3. Cabin Space That Beats Expectations
Honda is known for maximising interior space, and the WR-V proves it.
Even with the driver’s seat adjusted for someone 1.8m tall, there was still impressive legroom at the back.
4. Fuel Efficiency That Saves You Money
I averaged 6.3L/100km during my test loop, which makes it one of the most efficient non-hybrid SUVs in its class.
5. Practical for Families & PHV Drivers
- High seating position
- Easy entry for kids and elderly
- Good boot space for GrabFood, luggage, baby strollers
- Stable ride even with 3 passengers
For an affordable compact SUV, it feels like a much more expensive vehicle inside.
