    ◆Tough and refined styling

    The new CR-V pursues a tough exterior design inspired by the “”Trail Sport”” of the high-end Passport SUV and other models. It features a large, upright front grille, a long hood hood, and LED headlights. A powerful horizontal beltline emphasizes the overall length, which is approximately 70 mm longer than the previous model. The overall width and wheelbase have also been extended by approximately 10 mm and 40 mm, respectively, for a stronger and more aggressive presence.

    The windshield pillars have been repositioned for sportier proportions and improved visibility; the base of the A-pillar has been moved backward about 120 mm, outward about 70 mm, and downward about 35 mm compared to the previous model. The company is proud to say that these changes, along with side mirrors mounted on the doors, have greatly improved visibility.

    The hybrid model has aggressive styling. The front grille is a mesh design, highlighted by gloss black accents. The rear features a rectangular exhaust finisher. The exclusive lower bumper design is gloss black for the Sport grade and platinum finish for the Sport Touring. The underside of the rear spoiler is matte black for the Sport and gloss black for the Sport Touring. The aluminum wheels are 18-inch 10-spoke with Berlina Black paint on the Sport. The Sport Touring is equipped with 19-inch 5-spoke wheels painted black.

    ◆Sporty, modern and spacious interior

    The interior reflects Honda’s new design direction of sporty and modern while using high quality materials. The new model has a longer distance between the front and rear seats, and the rear seat legroom is approximately 15 mm larger than the previous model. The rear seats have an eight-stage reclining adjustment function for enhanced comfort.

    The front seats feature newly developed body stabilizer seats. This reduces fatigue on long drives. The steering wheel angle has been made sedan-like to pursue a more comfortable and sporty driving position. The center console between the front seats features the largest cup holder in its class with a 9-liter capacity.

    The Sport features exclusive black moquette seats and black trim panels. The Sport Touring, on the other hand, has black or gray leather seats and piano black trim trim. The Sport and Sport Touring have a black-finished headliner and orange contrast stitching on the seats, console, steering wheel, and shift lever.

    ◆204hp power throughout the hybrid system
    The new CR-V uses a fourth-generation two-motor hybrid system. The engine is an Atkinson-cycle direct-injection 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder gasoline. The motor draws maximum torque of 34.2kgm, 2kgm stronger than the conventional model. The entire hybrid system, engine and motor combined, achieves 204hp of power. This is an improvement of 3hp over the previous model and, according to Honda, is the most powerful in the CR-V’s history.

    The hybrid system offers greater refinement at highway speeds, and for the first time, the towing capacity, which is important for SUVs in the U.S. market, is up to 0.45 tons. Linear Shift Control is said to elevate the driving experience by pursuing an engine rev feel linked to vehicle speed when the throttle is fully open. The new hybrid system also improves acceleration performance in the speed range from approximately 140 km/h and up, according to the company.”
