I don't have the link - I read this on another device. But I saw a review of the UK HRV. 9 speed automatic. 157 HP diesel with 250+ ft lbs of torque. Me want. They have a smaller diesel, but they're getting the bigger one as an option.

More importantly here in the USA, that tells us that the HRV platform can handle extra torque and horsepower. So we can all start our HRV countdown clocks for the 1.5 turbo. I'm guessing the 2017 model year.

Hmm... are you sure you've got that right? I found this article that talks about a 118hp diesel in the HR-V, and this one about the CR-V with a 158hp diesel.

No, not sure I got it right. Wish I'd saved that link. They were speculating the larger diesel was post-launch - you don't see it on the UK HRV site.
