2008 Honda CR-V consumer reviews

Love this car, met all of our expectations and more!! Love it inside and out, drives and performs like a dream. Would buy another in heartbeat.

The CR-V is a great little car! Honda engineers are exceptional and the CR-V shows just how good they are. We love the versatility, the looks, and the durability. While it could probably use a little more horsepower we appreciate the gas mileage and the exceptional build quality.

This car was not what I was looking for but it was about $5k less than the accord I had been saving for. I bought it with 5000 miles and today it has 182,000 miles. The only extras besides basic maintenance has been a hub assembly and starter. Not bad for its age! It has carried two kids and all their stuff from car seats to getting their first drivers license. The 4 cyl engine isn’t fast but it will get you where you need to go. I’ve averaged 23mpg over its life.

This car exceeded my expectations, now I know why they're so popular. I just bought a 10 year old EX-L and it's basically a luxury SUV without being "flashy". I moved over from an earlier model Rav & this is my first Honda. I love the smoother ride & this CR-V will no doubt last me a long time! High quality car at a reasonable price, I love it!

I love this car! I was looking for a compact SUV that is reliable and I feel that I have found the perfect fit. I found a 2008 CRV-EX in my price range that had 97,000 miles. It has great leg and head room. I am getting about 20mpg which is what I expected. I think it is a comfortable ride and the best thing is that I have loads of space to pack in whatever I need to transport. The only con I have is that the acceleration is not stellar- but I am not looking to go from 0-60 in seconds anyway...so this is a minor concern to me.

This is my first car!! It's great in the snow and very reliable. Gas mileage is not the best but fairly good. It's a perfect size for me?not too big, but not too small.

Love this car in general. It's not too small, but not huge. There is tons of storage/hauling space and the fold down back seats make it possible to haul larger items. I am disappointed with the gas mileage, but my driving style is part of that problem, I admit. This car has been extremely reliable and is great on the interstate. I will upgrade to a newer year-model in the near future.

very reliable car, great milage, good ground clearance for rough roads, plenty of room for people and luggage or baggage, great family car for around town on long trips

Hondas are the most reliable and well-made cars on the road today. And this CR-V is not exceptions. I have owned a Pilot, a Civic, an Accord, and now, a CR-V. Even at 10 years old, this car looks and drives as well as it did on the day it was first purchased - even compared to the new CR-Vs. It is a testament to the quality and craftsmanship of Honda. Would never buy anything else.

Has met all of our needs. Honda reliability with only maintenance items needed. Just now needs a new AC with over 105k miles. Having good tires with good alignment mkes a huge difference in HWY travel. The 2.4 L engine is bullet proof which means plenty of pep or power and very dependable. A great all around CUV.....mid size crossover vehicle. Good Day!
