Powertrain

In its base form, the CR-V is motivated by a 1.5L turbo inline-4 engine making 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. It pairs with a continuously variable transmission for prompt acceleration and solid fuel efficiency. Noise from the powertrain is greatly reduced thanks to the Active Noise Cancellation system, which detects excess engine noise with microphones, and then cancels it with anti-noise emitted by the audio system.

Honda’s Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control is offered with every trim and instantly sends extra torque to the rear axle if it senses potential wheel slip. Whether driving in normal or tricky conditions, the driver will be able to benefit from extra grip since the system is always active.


Chassis

With its finely tuned MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link, double wishbone rear suspension, the CR-V is genuinely nimble and fun to drive. Suspension balancing is such that handling is sharp and responsive, yet a smooth ride is achieved. Variable-ratio electric power steering enables effortless direction changes, no matter how tight the turn is. 12.3-inch ventilated front disc brakes and 12.2-inch solid rear disc brakes promise good stopping power.


Passenger Cabin

Step into the CR-V’s airy cabin, and you’ll be greeted by a sleek, ultra-modern interior design and plenty of amenities. Particularly attractive touches include a stylish honeycomb mesh that covers venting for the automatic climate control system and mood-enhancing ambient lighting from the center console. EX and EX-L models comes standard with heated seats and a 10-way power driver’s seat with 2-way power lumbar support.

As for passenger space, both rows offer more than 38 inches of headroom and at least 41 inches of legroom. Cargo space is similarly impressive at 39.3 cubic feet, expandable to 76.5 cubic feet when the 60/40 split-folding rear seats are down.


Infotainment System

While LX and EX trims are equipped with a 7-inch infotainment touchscreen, the EX-L sports a 9-inch display and extra customization settings. Either way, you’ll have access to smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, Bluetooth HandsFreeLink and streaming audio, and HondaLink connected services, such as 24/7 roadside assistance and service scheduling.

EX-L models also offer SiriusXM satellite radio, HD Radio, and a 320-watt, 8-speaker audio system.
