This is a custom top cover made to protect the exterior of a Honda HR-V from the elements. It’s often called a “parachute top cover” because of the material (“parachute fabric”) used, which tends to be lightweight yet strong. It’s meant for either daily indoor use (garage) or outdoors.

Pros & Cons
Pros
-
Good all-weather protection: UV, rain, dust.
-
Helps preserve paint, trim, roof etc.
-
Lightweight & fairly easy to put on / remove.
-
Affordable compared to full car covers.
-
Black colour tends to hide dirt / stains and blends in.
Cons
-
Because it's lightweight / single-layer, not great for heavy snow loads, or very harsh hail.
-
With strong wind, cover might shift unless well secured. The edges / elastic need to be tight.
-
If water pools (if cover sags), might trap moisture – risk of mildew or damage underneath.
-
Black fabric absorbs heat — in very hot climates, the top part may get hot; inside temp may rise if car is covered when parked.
Summary / Ideal Use
This kind of cover is ideal for a Honda HR-V owner who wants to protect their vehicle from the usual wear and tear of outdoor exposure (sun, rain, dust) without spending too much or going for a heavy full-car protective cover. It’s particularly useful in regions with strong sunlight or dust storms. For long-term storage, or extremely harsh weather, one might consider a heavier, multi-layer cover.
