A popular compact SUV, the Honda CR-V is a benchmark in its class. The standard powertrain is a 2.4L I-4, coupled to a 5-speed automatic (5-speed manual for the CR-V EX). Standard safety items include ABS, VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist), and front side airbags. All models except the CR-V LX have Honda's Real Time® 4WD system. Options on the CR-V SE include heated leather seats and heated exterior mirrors.

What Changed:

New front fascia, side-sills, and rear bumper. 5-speed automatic replaces 4-speed automatic. Cam-driven AWD system replaces pump system. New premium SE model with leather trim and body-colored bumpers added.
