Honda Car Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) is eyeing to sell 1,400 units of the all-new HR-V in the country by the end of 2022.
HCPI Sales Division Head Atty. Louie Soriano gave the sales target for the newly introduced offering, noting the number of competitors in the subcompact crossover segment.
Given HCPI’s goal, the all-new Honda HR-V needs to turn over around 120 examples to buyers per month.
