Let's not compare HR-V with a corolla specially Gli 1.3. If I wanted a car that is little more powerful and faster than Gli I could just go buy the city 1.3 or better city 1.5.
Problem is that for 3.7 mil we expect at least what vezel offers if not better. We can get a 0 meter brand new vezel for 3.5 mil or less, which has 7-speed DCT, more powerful engine and hybrid tech that delivers much better fuel economy.
