When the 2019 Honda CR-V went on sale Nov. 13, we were there for it with a roundup of coverage to date. So, apparently, were our readers, who propelled our coverage summary to the top of the most-read news stories for the week.

We already liked the CR-V enough in its 2017 redesign to place it second by just a couple points in the closest No. 2 finish of any Cars.com Challenge we’ve ever conducted. A few tweaks for 2019 in the name of improved technology and streamlined trim levels — plus a new shade of white, if that’s your thing — shouldn’t alter what makes the CR-V a great compact SUV. What’s different, however, is the price, which creeps up for the third time since the 2017 redesign. Depending how budget-minded you are, a 2018 CR-V could be the better option than a 2019 model.

Elsewhere, readers couldn’t get enough of our 2020 Toyota Corolla sedan coverage, which took three of the top 10 slots. We also have a story from our 2018 Mid-Size Sedan Challenge, a quick ride in the 2019 Ford Ranger, a couple auto-show previews from opposite ends of the country and (my personal favorite) a story about one of our copy editors and a 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye that you’ll definitely want to read. I can promise a lot of purple in that one.

How did it all shake out? Take a look. Here are the top 10 news stories Cars.com readers couldn’t get enough of this past week:
