With some of the most innovative technology available today, this sporty two-row SUV is perfect for fun road trips and everyday commutes. If you haven’t test-driven this edition yet, here are just some of the many reasons why you should.
At a Glance: The 2023 Honda CR-V
Performance
The 2023 CR-V’s engine is a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder that delivers both responsiveness and fuel efficiency, as it produces 190 horsepower and gets an estimated 31 miles per gallon in combined city and highway driving.
Opting for the hybrid powertrain gets you up to 204 horsepower and a fuel economy rating of 40 miles per gallon on city streets and 34 on highways. For off-road trails and better cornering, the Real Time AWD system automatically adjusts the vehicle’s traction by delivering more power to the rear wheels when it’s needed.
Design
The cabin for this edition is a spacious one with 76.5 cubic feet of cargo space, configurable rear seating, and room for as many as five passengers. Interior amenities offered include a power moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and leather-trimmed front seats with both a heating function and body-stabilizing design.
At the rear, the power tailgate can be opened easily with either your foot or the key fob, and the gloss-black grille found in the front helps to give the vehicle a bold and distinctive look.
Technology
In addition to the available Bose premium audio system, which features 12 speakers and a powerful subwoofer, the 2023 CR-V delivers a wide array of other tech features. To charge personal devices, there are both 12V and USB outlets in the cabin and an available wireless phone charger.
When using the infotainment system to listen to music, connect wirelessly to smartphones, or perform other functions, you have your choice between either a 7- or 9-inch touchscreen. However, you can also use the voice command function to control this system while driving.
Safety
This edition’s safety features are sure to impress as well, including the Collision Mitigation Braking System, which can automatically apply the brakes if a collision is otherwise unavoidable. The multi-angle rearview camera and parking sensors work together to help make parking safer.
Monitoring the area around your vehicle, the Blind Spot Information System can warn you if it senses other vehicles hiding in your blind spots, and if you start to drift out of your lane unintentionally, the Road Departure Mitigation System can steer the vehicle back to where it should be.
The 2023 CR-V delivers a luxurious interior and capable performance, as well as tech features that can keep a whole family or group of friends busy on road trips.
