Source: http://m.drive.com.au/motor-news/honda-hrv-priced-under-25k-20150113-12ndyh.html

According to the site the base model will start at just under $25k, the next trim up tacks on $3k more and the top of the line model is just over $30k... Seems a bit more pricy than we all had thought, unless my source is absolute bogus... Then disregard all of this.

*Edit*-On second thought I have a feeling this pricing is bogus because it is being priced above the larger CR-V which does not make any sense.

US pricing

It appears the prices quoted are from an Australian web address. I'm sure they wont price higher than the CR-V.

not bogus, just the wrong currency and country

We can get a rough estimate though by exploring the pricing relationship between CRV and HRV in markets where we do have pricing information...

Or just convert the currencies...

Base model would be right around $20k and top model would be around $25k

Things aren't quite that easy. Maybe that gives us an idea but cars tend to cost more in Australia generally. By that I mean you can't just convert the currencies because Australians usually pay more for their vehicles than Americans.

That is correct. Cars cost more in other parts of the world than the US.

in some parts of the world it's crazy as to how much more they have to pay.
for some it's within the 6 figure range
