Does the Honda HR-V have a 12V outlet?

Yes. The current Honda HR-V lineup includes at least one 12V power outlet in the front cabin, with some trims offering a second outlet in the cargo area. Availability varies by trim and market.


This article explains where the outlets are located, how many are available on different trims, and what to check when buying or owning an HR-V.


Where to find the 12V outlets


The following outlines the standard locations and trim-related variations you should know about.



  • Front 12V power outlet: located in the lower portion of the center console, near the gear shifter.

  • Cargo-area 12V outlet: available on select trims and/or packages, typically located in the rear cargo space behind the rear seats.


In practice, you’ll generally have the front 12V outlet on every HR-V; the cargo-area outlet is a bonus feature on higher trims or with specific packages.


Trims and regional differences


Because power outlet configurations can vary by trim level and market, verify the exact setup for the model you’re considering.



  • Front 12V outlet: standard across the current HR-V trims in most regions.

  • Cargo-area 12V outlet: present on higher trims or with certain packages; not universal across all markets.


Always check the specific model’s brochure or ask a dealer to confirm the exact configuration for your region and trim.


Other charging options


Beyond the 12V outlets, the HR-V provides USB charging ports in the cabin to support mobile devices.



  • USB ports: commonly available in the front area for charging and data connectivity; configuration may vary by trim and market.


USB ports complement the 12V outlets to cover most charging needs for everyday devices.


Summary


The Honda HR-V offers at least one 12V outlet in the front cabin, with a second 12V outlet in the cargo area available on higher trims or specific packages. Always verify the exact outlet configuration for the model and market you’re considering by checking the brochure or consulting a dealer.
