This variant also features Hands-Free Power Tailgate with Walk Away Close function, where the tailgate will start closing automatically upon detecting that the individual with the remote key is moving away from the car. 

Other advanced features in this variant include the Remote Engine Start and Walk Away Auto Lock functions which provide convenience for the All-New HR-V RS owners.
