Third CRV we've owned

This is a great little car, excellent gas mileage, comfortable seats, zippy turbo, good looks, I like that they finally put a tilt for the sunroof.

Close to Excellent SUV

We've only had this car for just a short while. The amenities are generous, and cost thousands less than some of the other vehicles we looked at. Overall, the vehicle is a very good value. Of the many CRVs we owned or leased, this is by far, the best yet. Only a few items I'd put on the "needs improvement" or "wish" list. Unfortunately, Honda has a reputation for building noisy vehicles and this one is no exception. The car is noisy in local traffic, especially under normal acceleration. It is however much quieter on the highway, better than our last CRV. Mostly engine noise. Fuel economy thus far has been at the low end of the reported range, but not bad. This sometimes improves as the CRVs gain more mileage. Honda's color selection for the CRV is drab. Wish they had kept the right side view camera, and would gladly trade the moon roof for added ventilated seats and folding side view mirrors, which help when getting out in tight parking spaces. Honda sensing seems to work pretty well. Pedestrian detection to the rear would be a welcomed added feature.

Fun to drive

A very good quality vehicle in it's price class. I've owned several other high priced vehicles over the years and always enjoy coming back to a Honda.

Its a good car to drive

Its a well built vehicle with a good drivability. But I have a concern on city fuel consumption. It varies from 5.7-7 KM/ L in heavy traffic. Outstation consumption is good 14-15 KM/L

Nicest car I've ever owned!

When I test drove my new 2018 Honda CR-V Touring, I was impressed with its responsiveness. It clearly outperforms our 2008 CR-V EXL, so thank you very much for the turbo! I also was looking for how it handled and to see whether it feels like it's leaning when going around corners, but I've found none of that in the new car. I just took it on a 1350 mile road trip and was surprised that I wasn't feeling my typical "TB" each time I got out of the car. The seats are comfortable. I love the new features, and really appreciate the safety features especially. I easily became accustomed to the Lane Keep Assist and the Adjustable Cruise Control features that keep you in your lane and at a safe distance behind the vehicle in front of you. The blind spot alert is also invaluable. The audibles the car gives are good--not abrasive or nerve-shattering, just sufficient to notify you of important details when driving. T he fuel economy is great! I got 28 miles per gallon on the road trip, which is great considering the speed limit across southern Idaho and northern Utah is 80 and I was doing slightly more than that over long stretches of road. I also like the more recent color selection (go Sandstorm!). Nice work on that, Honda! I can't believe the visibility I have with the headlights the Touring comes equipped with! And adding the mud trays/floor mats, and the Perma Plate warranty on interior and exterior surfaces gave us added peace of mind. Overall, a beautiful car, stylish interior, comfortable, and economical! Gotta love it!

Very confortable and quiet vehicle to OWN.

I am really please to with my choice of a CRV and all its bells and whistles. Example: it tells me when I'm able to change lanes, it make adjustments my car drift in another lane, it tells me when if I need to brake or it will brake for me, it helps me back up and alerts me if I'm backing over something. The noise level is great and quiet, with an awesome radio system. There's so much to my car I can rely on which makes it more than JUST a car. Thanks HONDA!!

My Comfortable, Reliable, Vehicle

This is my 3rd Honda CRV over the past 18 years. The style, and overall quality of the interior / exterior has been a constant. For a tall person like me, I have found that the interior designs have always provided the comfort that I need when city or highway driving over long distances.
