Developing and producing small SUVs built on sub-compact platforms is now a thing. The new 2016 Honda HR-V is one of these new trendsetters, which analysts predict will sell to the tune of 60,000 units in Canada by 2020. The HR-V is built at the Honda plant in Celaya, Mexico, which is also where the Fit is made.
