I've seen no mention of an electrical outlet in the cargo area. We are accustomed to plugging in an igloo cooler on road trips. May have to look into an extension cord to reach the outlet in the console, if that is the only one. Any ideas>

Dammit posted this in the Denver Auto Show thread, is this the kind of outlet you're looking for? It's by the rear center cup holder

Won't the sno-cone dispenser obviate the cooler?

 

[Rucky]

yep, that's it. thanks

Wifey decided against the sno cone dispenser. We will order the in dash espresso machine instead. Have to be careful with that hot coffee when you activate the magic fingers vibration & massage mode on the driver's seat, though.

Is that present in all the different trims?

Would make a good plug for a sno cone maker or drink cooler. LOL. Perfect for camping trips and road trips.

I think so, but I could see it not being on the LX trim. Have to look at Jeff's video again and see if it's listed somewhere on there.

That's a horrible spot for a power outlet. With a drink in the cup holder, you have to move it before getting access to the outlet.

the Aussie version shows a 12v outlet in the cargo area. Wonder if the US version gets one too? You can see the outlet on the right side and a light on the left:

In the first pic in the thread below, reortedly from the Montreal auto show, it looks like the outlet is there on the right just under the tonneau cover. Dark, but if you blow it up it appears to be there.

...and on the other hand, at about 43 seconds in Honda Pro Jason's video from Miami, there's a shot in the back of an EXL, and pretty clearly no outlet, at least not where the Aussie one was.

So who knows. I can't imagine it's a Canadian thing... maybe it's only on the AWD or something?!?

Was the car at the Montreal show the tricked out with the all accessories one? Maybe it's an optional accessory?

Looks like it in this thread: http://www.hrvforum.com/forum/289-honda-hr-v-general-discussion/3666-montreal.html

Was thrilled to see in the Canadian specs that we're getting three outlets (front/second row/Trunk) altogether on all trim levels!
