Reliable, sporty, and fun!

I've owned the 2015 model and loved everything about it. I didn't want to give it up, but needed AWD for winter. I love the comfort of the new crv, you can start it without being inside to get it warmed up and ready. It has more space, the seats fold down to make a flat bed, the 2015 did not. There are steer guards, in case you wander out of the lane !! Who in the world knew my car can actually read the lines on the road and help steer??!! Kinda creepy and awesome all at the same time. If I have someone in my blind spot, and try to change lanes, my car alerts me with a warning noise. There are many more amazing things about my car I haven't mentioned, like the fact that it has insulation ... to block out noise from driving, that I could sit here all day and type about. I love my car!

Great Solid Car

I took my car with the purchase of the Honda CRV-EX L. Test drove the RAV4, Nissan Rouge and Mazda CX5. The interior of the CRV felt roomier. The drive was smooth and the car felt very solid. The Honda Link was easy to figure out. All said it is an extremely good buy. We're a family who drives our auto's till the wheels are falling off and with this car we do expect to get well over 200,000 miles. A suggest you test drive them all and make your own decision. I guarantee you'll decide on the 2018 Honda CRV

Overall the best mid-suv for the money

Everything about the this car is excellent... only thing I would like to see improved would be the ride, seem to feel each bump in the road, but do not miss understand the ride is still comfortable.

Fantastic Vehicle

We looked at numerou different vehicles in a variety of classes and have driven many of them as rental cars. Once we drove the Honda CR-V we were amazed at the comfort, smooth ride, availability of all controls, etc. We chose the Modern Steel color in the Touring model. We love the vehicle and would not buy anything but the touring model. It is the only model that has the beautiful and unique wheels. We would definitely recommend the vehicle to anyone looking at a vehicle in the CR-V class Dale

Honda CRV.

I love my new car. I'm actually just getting used to it. This 2018 offers so many more safety features and advancements in technology that I have to get accumulated in using all these extras that have been added to the 2018 Honda CRV.

Fabulous vehicle -- Only missing 2 things

Love, Love, LOVE this vehicle! I was weighing the Honda CR-V against the Toyota Rav 4. At the end of the day, the CR-V drives better, is more comfortable, and is an overall superior choice. I have no regrets, but I do miss three things (versus my Toyota Avalon sedan): 1) the audio speaker system is so-so. I have the 2nd from the top-of-the-line model, and yet the radio sounds "tinny," because of the speaker system. Wish they had a better quality audio system when you're adding all the other upgraded elements anyway, and 2) This has a V-4 engine, and my previous car had a V-6. Not a huge deal, but I do notice the difference from time to time, and 3) the road noise is noticeable on the highway. I read another review and the reviewer said he had purchased WeatherTech floor mats, which helped a great deal with noise reduction. So I just did that, and we'll see....

I BOUGHT IT!

I didn't intend too, but I did. The plethora of mechanical and electrical features are amazing. It might be a little overwhelming for some but I love everything about it (except for the design of the wheels.) That's a minor detail in my book. It's amazingly easy to handle for an AWD and gets great gas mileage. The 1.5L Turbo engine gives you plenty of oomph on the highway and is a dream in the city. it's much quieter than expected and the driver's seat adjusts to make any driver comfortable. I could go on and on about the 2018 CR-V but just know that it's worth every penny.

I love it!

After looking at the new style of the CR-V and test driving the EX, I fell in love. Drives like a dream and looks even better.
