There is nothing can compare the joyfulness to buy the very first car in our life. Once you drive long enough you will produce a sense of emotion to the car and you will miss her when you sell her in the future.
HRV is one of the best new car picks you can make. Great reliable engine, good size & price! Just keep up with your oil changes!
How about the Corolla Cross? Comes in hybrid also and has rear ac vents.
Oh hey whatsup, didn't expect to see you here
@@Flying-Fox-of-Snowy-Mountain I don't have any experience with the Hybrid but the standard one is pretty good. The 2.0L is a solid engine.
@@Flying-Fox-of-Snowy-Mountain Yes, that as well... it's a Toyota. Honda and Toyota are the best options basically in every segment they sell cars.
@@Flying-Fox-of-Snowy-Mountain should be just as reliable. I think my biggest issue with the corolla cross is that after you sit in the HRV, it feels like a generation older. the HRV feels much nicer than its price would suggest, whereas the Corolla cross feels...as much as it is.
i love how you parents are supportive and filming you in the car😭❤ i love your new car is all black super cool and stylish!!!
they're seriously the best 🥹💕
@@CharlottePrattYT omg your pretty
Honda is the car company I like the most.
I love Jeep. I’m a Jeep girl. ❤
@@KourttneyL I also really like Jeep.
Japanese cars are definitely the most reliable!,
@@xfinity319nope
@@ivy_v69oh wow you really now about cars
first car is such an important milestone!! congratulations
thank you so much!! I agree it feels really unsafe to take your eyes off the road to try and figure out how to turn the AC on!
@@CharlottePrattYT nice car buddy we can be friends too ok
i haven’t seen a car that i was like “omg i want it” until this Honda, it looks so simple yet i looooove the style it’s literally such an attractive car
same!! I've never really had any strong feelings about cars until I saw and fell in love with this one!
the most interesting thing, is that in USA, a young girl can buy a car which in my country it costs 120x the minimum monthly salary.
I feel happy for you Charlotte, be grateful for your life.
where do you live sir?
@@lynx4600 @lynx4600 I'm from Brazil my friend. (we have a lot of rich people here, but the "normal" medium class, can't afford a "simple" car like that here)
A Honda HR-V in Brazil is only for High Managers - Corporate employees which are basically less than 5% of the population. For example today in 2023 (Minimum Salary range by our government is BRL 1,200.00 Monthly (a Honda HR-V costs BRL 150,000.00 or higher. A Finance Manager in Brazil gets around BRL 20,000.00 Monthly. (it means that in Brazil, a Manager could get one car like that in about 7 or 8 months of work.
In USA, the same car costs USD$ 25,000.00. (average Manager salary is around USD$ 14,000.00 monthly, in medium companies. which means that, to buy the same car, in 2 months it's possible.
if we compare the minimum salary range in each country:
USA: USD$ 1,280.00 (monthly average) Car Cost USD$ 25,000.00 (19 months to buy)
Brazil: BRL$ 1,200,00 (monthly average) Car Cost BRL$ 150,000.00 (125 months to buy it)
=)
I live in the US and i can only hope to afford a car such as this. I dont even make enough to live so even buying a used car is a struggle
@@minmeena IKR all these people see america as a ticket to life, its really not
I am currently driving a 2017 HRV, purchased new in early 2018, w/ 140k+ miles on it. I drive in all sorts of different road conditions, almost entirely at night (night shift hospice nurse). I highly recommend this car. Maintain it and it will last forever
this is so good to hear I love that it lasts such a long time!!
Nice to know. In March I got a 2019 HRV EX-L with just 7,000 miles on it. Love it so far. But i must be doing the heater controls wrong, as It never gets warm enough for me here in Massachusetts. (I deliver meds for pharmacy to Hospice folks, but not in my car, ) tc, Bill
@@wwonka52 I haven't had that issue at all (we are in the Cleveland, Ohio area). It might be worth having that looked at
It's only marked till 140 miles per hour which is like a bit weird ? Does it really affect your driving like if you wanna cruise on the top speeds ?
I loved your excitement with the new car! Congrats girl!!! Drive safe!!
I love this car I just got a 2024 hrv yesterday and it love everything about it!! It rides so smooth and I love all the features it comes with I got the color forest green it looks like a mix of green gray and blue it’s so beautiful
You seem like such a humble and grateful person 🩷 Congrats 🥳
I loveee that you highlighted how sleek and functional your new suv is! Soo happy for you, i know you will baby her💕
I already went hardcore on the decorations lol
Awesome video! Congrats on your first car! Looks really nice! Looking forward to some videos of you driving it! 😊❤🚙
Congratulations! 🎉 Charlotte, I got the 2023 Hondas Hr-v Sport in red, and I love it. I've had it for about 3 months now, and it's such a great vehicle, and you will love it.
Congratulations 🎉 for your new car! I own a Honda city (sedan) now after 3 years of rigorous car search. Kudos to Honda for making the best engines and providing that superb driving comfort.
Congratulations on your new car!!! I'm so happy for you!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I love how excited you are s as bout the car, enjoy it!!!!!!!
🎉 so stoked for you! Congrats on your first car. 😀
thank youuu 🤍✨

Congrats, Charlotte! My very first car in the mid-2K was a white Honda (2nd hand, late 90s Civic), I named her Amanda. She remains special in my heart because it was my parents' graduation gift. As an aside, my late Dad's 2002 Accord is still doing well at present. Happy and safe travels. :)
Congrats! I have the same model you do, just in FWD. Its a fantastic vehicle that is so fun to drive, even if it isn't the fastest thing in the world. Also insanely reliable. Keep up with maintenance and it'll easily go past 300k
loving the positive vibes you giving! cant wait to get my first car one day :)
Yay! Congratulations! What an awesome first car! The all blacked out look is so sleek looking!
Congrats!!! I’m was so excited for you!!🎉🥳👏🏾
Omg well doneeeee! We are so happy for u xx
CONGRATULATIONS Charlotte!!! 😃👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I’m so happy for you! I have a Honda Civic coupe myself, and I love it!!!💛🌼💛🌼
thanks so much!! Honda girlies forever 🥰🚙
If you want to preserve the paint and minimize scratched and swirls, try to avoid automatic carwashes. Check out a few two bucket method washes.
great tip!
I learned about not using the automatic car wash the hard way
Wait two bucket method as in at home washing?? Would you recommend mister car wash place??
A new subscriber here. So happy for your first car! I hope I will get mine in a few years 😊 Also, I saw your ‘Becoming’ book and I just finished rereading it. Really love that book ❤
Hi Charlotte👀🩷 Congratulations!!! OMG i’m soooo happy for you🫶🏼 You totally deserve it🥰 Cannot wait to see you going out driving your new cool car🤍✨ i look up to you so much👑💖
ahhh thank you so so much!!! 🥰🥰
Congratulations on your New Honda HR-V 😊!!!! Beginning of this month even I bought a New Honda Civic Touring ( My first car), coincidentally, it was heavily raining, and thunderstorms that day. Have a Safe Drive!!
Congrats on your new Honda!
I bought a brand new 2023 Honda Civic Touring sedan in January. I’d been driving my ‘02 Honda Civic LX for 18 years, so it was waaaay past time for an upgrade. The car is gorgeous! The exterior is a meteorite metallic gray with a two-tone black/gray interior. Honda calls the seats gray, but they look ivory to me! I absolutely did NOT want black seats since I live in South Florida where it’s pretty hot most of the time.
Honda has gone back to their design roots. The exterior is polished and understated while the interior is almost semi-luxury. My steering wheel is exactly like yours and the dash is almost identical to yours.
It’s a beautiful car and I’m super happy with it. Safety and reliability (along with longevity) are most important to me. Hondas are great cars, very safe and reliable. I had a great experience with my first Honda which is why I bought another. Have fun with your new car!
Congrats Charlotte! ❤❤❤
Congratulations!! I can’t wait to buy my own car! Btw your car looks amazing! I love the front!
You speak really well and 1st cars are the best. Great video!
You do such a good job of walking though the car! Like seriously a skilled presenter. There are car review channels with half the amount of clarity 😬
Congratulations!!🎉 I just bought a 24 HR-V Ex-L yesterday in the same color. It’s so pretty and I love it. The HR-V is definitely a good choice and it’s reliable.
Congrats! I just got my first car too and stumbled upon your video! I have a Volkswagen Tiguan. The excitement is so real! It feels like a rental car 😅. I can't wait to start fully enjoying my new car and I wish the best for you as well! 💜
ahhh I looked at the Tiguan too but none of the dealers near me had any to test drive 😔 congrats on your new car!!
A very Congurationals to you Charlotte Pratt ❤❤ for having a new and your first car.
the excietment of having a new car by your own money i really awesome ❤❤.

I love how u r too thankful about the situation

Cool to see how exited you are over a humble crossover. hope it brings you years of service and fun! I know my Honda has!
Just a humble crossover? It's a brand new car, I'd be ecstatic too haha.
Girl I’m so excited for you! I have the 2023 Honda HR-V Sport and I love it!! I hope you enjoy

Congrats to you! Drive safe and stay safe.
The black flows well on the HRV, front end looks aggressive always thought of them looking slightly like a Urus lol. Congrats 👏
I am getting the 2024 in a few weeks, ordered the sport in the urban gray color, definitely looking forward to it coming in!
Congrats, I got the same one in November, but in Nordic Forest Pearl , great truck. Especially in the snow and great on gas.
Congratulations 💐 Honda is gonna take care of you .🏁 Welcome to the Power of Dreams ❤️
Gz!!! That car is so sleek!
congratulations Charlotte. I love the color too! great choice !!!
Thanks so much!
I have a 2023 Honda HR-V too and I love it! It’s spacious but also not too big! Probably one of my favorite cars I’ve ever owned.
HR-V gang!!
Ooooo me too!
Cute Honda HR-V and I really like the smaller SUV too. I've seen the Hyundai Kona and VENUE that I'm in love with and I wanna get either one of them for my next car but I'm still looking around for other vehicles.
You're such a kind-hearted person. I wish you the best in life. :)
Honda hrv is the most beautiful and hot car ever ❤️✨ congrats on your new car, God bless 🧿
Congrats on your new vehicle. I have a 2020 Ford Escape SE in black a little bit over a year.
You can’t go wrong with Honda. Love my 2023 hrv.

Congrats Charlotte🎉🎉🎉
Thank you!!
Hi Charlotte, the car is so beautiful and i love the video!! 🤍🤍
Thank you! 🤗
Beautiful car, congratulations 🎉
I’m a fan of cloth seats for that exact reason you explained. The weather here in VA is so unpredictable
Sounds stupid but cloth seats are easy to clean and if they get too dirty you can just use a seat cover. Leather is extremely high maintenance and always clacks and leaves holes in the seat.
Congratulations Charlotte.
Hope you enjoy your new car.
Can't wait to watch all the videos you make in it.❤
gonna have so many good videos in the car 🥰
@@CharlottePrattYT i have a job chipotle Mexican grill lmao Missouri and im a girl too and im from kansas ks and im just 26 dont hate me ok but I will learn how to drive soon I love your watch this video lot
Congrats! Hopefully I can get mine this year 🙏
congratulations charlotte
I’m adding this car to my list. Very nice. And black is my favorite color nice and simple not to much.
Congrats 🎉🥳🎊
Congratulations dear Charlotte for your new car and me and my sister really really love your new car so so much and I wish you have a beautiful day🎂🎊💓💫
hope you both have a great day too!! 💕
Love your new car Charlotte
Congratulations! I watch a lot of of new car buying vlogs, and it’s super cool seeing another Mainer. I just bought a brand new truck in Saco.
congrats to you too!
I got my first car almost a year ago and I recorded that day. such a good feeling!!!
very good choice of car and congratulations on your achievement. This HR-V arrived here in Brazil as the ZR-V, because we already have two other HR-V models. But it came to Brazil in a way that was a bit ''bare in terms of finish and technology''.
Congratulations Charlotte i love your car you got a Honda great choice Honda is one of the most safest models on the road today enjoy her
Safety first!!
Got my 1st car recently too! Yeay to us! 🤗
Congrats girly!!
thank youuu 🤍✨
Congrats! Good choice, you cannot go wrong with Honda. Enjoy.
Your new car looks beautiful
