The Perfect Small SUV

I love my 2013 Honda CR-V EX-L. It is the perfect small SUV. The best thing about a Honda is that their motors and vehicles last forever. It is a sound investment. I love the comfort, the leather seats, the sunroof, the space. My only gripe with Hondas is that they don't handle as well as Subarus and their AWD doesn't come close to Subaru. That said, this CR-V will last me a lot longer than my Impreza did because it is a Honda. The perfect car would be a Honda with Subaru AWD & handling, lol. Hondas are forever reliable and safe and at the top of the class for all style vehicles.

Comfortable and Practical

We love our CR-V. Its very comfortable for the driver and passengers and very handy for hauling everything from groceries and luggage to 2 kayaks and everything we need for our weekend trips t the cottage. I do wish mileage was better - perhaps I'm spoiled with my Civic's 35 MPH. One pet peeve is - my wife insisted on the in-dash navgation system - which i admit s very nice to always have on the dash...but the $1500-2000 price tag is highway robbery and the map update cost of $200 is crazy. It works and we use it all the time - but we're spoiled by the ease of use of google.

No longer want to drive anything else!

The CRV is not just a nice driving vehicle, but it also gives me the flexibility I need. So spacious! I even bought a couch and brought it home in the back!!

Not the best car in my opinion

The interior is average and the comfort is not so good. The bluetooth has problems and the AC do not work properly.

CR-V is Most Reliable!

Honestly, the CR-V (and most Hondas) are the best cars. They are reliable, drive for a few hundred thousand miles, and rarely need major repairs. The gas mileage on the CR-V is pretty good too. It gets about 42 mpg on the highway if you use cruise control at about 65 to 68 mph. On the streets, I am averaging about 27 mpg. The car is very roomie. The back seat has plenty of leg room for tall people and the back cargo area is huge. It's tall and with the seats folded down, it's pretty deep. Buy a CR-V. It'll last forever.

Great SUV

My Honda CRV drives great and is easy to handle . I love how it handles water in rainy weather and I feel confident in an accident the award winning air bag design will be a life saver.

Great value in a used car

We were looking for a dependable car for our daughter to use at college. The CR-V has been a great addition to our 'family'.

Very Secure and Solid Feeling Vehicle

Very smooth riding vehicle, solid handling and great aesthetics. Visual of dashboard monitoring is easy. Interior is comfortable and more spacious than other SUV's of this size. Engine runs efficient and quite to the passenger compartment. All around quite and tight vehicle.

Love EVERYTHING about this car!

Everything is in the right place. I've had several cars with vents, controls, etc. in places that weren't convenient or made the ride uncomfortable. If my husband reviewed, he would take off a star for road noise from the sunroof, as he is very tall and his head is right by it. However, I am very short and do not hear it. Therefore, since it is my car, I give it 5 stars!
