When our long-term Kadjar made its way back to our friends at Renault it was time to find a new load lugger to carry our video and photography equipment around.

Long‑term test: Welcome the Honda HR‑V
&width=89&fastscale=false)
Thankfully after not too long Honda came forward with a solution – so please welcome to the GRR fleet the Honda HR-V.
It’s slightly smaller than the Kadjar, but again is a front-wheel-drive crossover from a company with strong heritage in making cars to lug large amounts of people or kit around.
This is the second generation HR-V, although its life didn’t begin until a full eight years after the original departed the world back in 2006. That original had become something of an icon, possibly the car that launched the crossover revolution and a one you will still see on the road every now and then driven by owners who see no reason to move on.

The 2014 HR-V stays true to the original’s form, with focus on style and practicality. So how will it stack up to the rigours of working for GRR on a daily basis?
You can find out right here as we’ll be reporting on our latest acquisition until Honda drag it from our grasp next year. It will be cover a near 100-mile daily commute, be stuffed with equipment and, from time to time, transport the entire GRR crew, so it should undergo quite the rigorous test.
