01:08$40,000.
01:102023 Honda HR-V While the older versions have gotten a couple
01:16of one-star reviews for missing out on a good driving experience, Honda has upped the game
01:21for 2023 HR-V.

01:30On the outside, it is fitted with pretty wide LED lights, boldly designed inlets, and a

01:37The interior also gets a massive upgrade with premium materials, more space for passengers,
01:42and seats that are specifically tailored for comfort and good posture in the event of long
01:46hours of driving.
01:48The only concern with this car is its power output.

01:58that produces just 158hp.
02:01You'll be spending about $25,000 to just over $30,000 on the 2023 Honda HR-V, depending

03:202023 Mazda CX-50 While this one has a lot of great things
03:26to talk about, the craziest thing about the 2023 Mazda CX-50 is just how many trim levels
03:32it comes in.
03:33There is something for everyone in the 2023 Mazda CX-50.
03:38Whatever model you decide to go for, you will be getting a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine and

03:49The turbocharged trims are set at 256hp, while the others get just 187hp.
03:57This car is more performance driven than design, hence not being the craziest design on the
04:02outside.

04:08with a design language that makes it feel bigger than it actually is.
