Pricing
While we wait for official HR-V pricing information to release speculation around it has begun with the top of the link model suggested to be priced up to $22k. Many other mentions of what pricing could be throughout all the HR-V trim levels can be found here.
____________________Starting manufacturer's suggested retail price, including destination charge, for the 2015 Fit is up to $16,315. This is for an LX with newly revised six-speed manual transmission.
The lowest starting retail price for a 2015 Fit with a CVT that a driver operates like an automatic is $17,115.
But it's worth noting that even a 2015 Fit with CVT and all the new, premium amenities, which was the test car, tops out at less than $21,600.

Top of the line is $22K! I think it going sell well even with the 130 h.p. engine. If Honda would add a turbo to it; it would on fire in terms of sales but this is Honda America and no turbocharged engine for over 20 years!
There is no mention of AWD as an option; but I sure Honda will add it in for the Northern states. If not; it will not sell well in these snow climates.

MotorTrend Reviews the HR-V
Although this review includes the Vezel and not an HR-V it's still the best it gets being the first American publication to release a first drive review which you can read in it's entirety here and discuss in this thread.
____________________For my test drive, Honda loaned me a front-drive Vezel S, whose standard paddle shifters and 17-inch alloys shod with 215/55 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050 summer tires make it the sportiest non-hybrid variant. Initial observation: Despite weighing a hundred or so pounds more than the Fit, the similarly powered Vezel didn't seem any slower. Zipping around the busy streets of Tokyo and merging into expressway traffic presented no problems at all for this 129-hp crossover. In fact, it never felt wanting for more power, a tribute to the nicely sorted CVT. Further, it's much quieter than a Fit, even with the 1.5L pegged at redline. Honda notes that the Vezel utilizes "high-performance soundproofing," and it shows. The gutsier, less-buzzy 1.8L HR-V should prove even quicker and quieter. In terms of fuel economy, expect the HR-V to return numbers slightly thirstier than the Civic's 30/39 mpg city/highway.
