The entry-level VTi X packs a 1.5-liter VTEC turbocharged engine, front-wheel drive, and 131 kW (around 176 hp). Prices start at AUD 39,900 (approximately USD 28,724). The hybrid e:HEV X and e:HEV L are also front-drive only, but they use a 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle engine paired with a two-motor hybrid system. The e:HEV X opens at AUD 43,400 (USD 31,244), while the e:HEV L begins at AUD 45,900 (USD 33,043). At the top of the lineup sits the e:HEV LX, which carries the same hybrid powertrain but gains all-wheel drive. That version starts at AUD 51,900 (USD 37,363). All ZR-V models have five seats. The hybrid variants produce 135 kW (roughly 181 hp).

Compared to the previous-generation ZR-V in Australia, which was priced from AUD 35,900 (USD 25,844), the base model has become more expensive. However, the range-topping e:HEV LX retains its earlier starting price. Honda backs the crossover with a 5-year unlimited-mileage warranty and adds 5 years of roadside assistance, plus a capped-price servicing plan of AUD 199 (USD 143) per scheduled visit.
