I love my new Honda CR-V Hybrid. It floats and flies, so comfortable and efficient while using less fuel than the regular CR-V. Thanks, Honda for a great car

Average 35 to 38 mpg. Much cheaper than Rav4. Very roomy. A+ for family SUV. If you live in nyc, get this SUV instead of others. 2 car seats + one adult at rear, no problem.

I bought it new. In a lapse of attention, I didn't insist on Michelin tires and ended up with Hankooks, which are noisier, harder riding and may be less efficient. Otherwise, the car rides and handles fairly well. I like the hybrid for its low speed torque and city mpg, but most of my driving is on hilly 70 mph Interstate, and my overall mpg for 15,000 miles is only 31 mpg. Disappointing, but not my main complaint. What causes me to hate the car is the computer BS. To begin with, I keep the car in a garage, but no matter what state I leave it in, when I return it has locked itself. I can't leave the key fob too close to the car or it kills the key fob battery. Exasperating! Then there's the computer fooling with the steering. At first I thought that having it nudge me if I drifted out of my lane was good, but when I'm trying to avoid a semi drifting into my lane, I don't need it trying to push me into the truck. So I've turned that feature off. The lane keeping assist is worthless, since you still have to keep correcting it, and if it senses that you aren't doing so it will run you into the ditch in spite. The adaptive cruise control is mostly a help, but too often it will panic if the car in front pulls into an off ramp and slows down. It slams on the brakes which is not only annoying but can create a dangerous situation if some one behind you is a little too close. The fact that you have to use the touchscreen for too many functions is both annoying and dangerous. Texting or even using your cellphone is illegal, but you have to take your eyes off the road to adjust the heating, radio, etc. Is just as dangerous. Then there's the headlights. They have 'blinders' not only on the top of the lighted area for low beams, but top, bottom, and both sides on hi and lo beams. I live in a rural area and I need all the light I can get on back roads, but with POS I can't even see how to turn on to a side road. If I'm going to be driving at night, I just use another car. These are the major problems I have with the CR-V, and I have a few more less important, but you get the picture. I used to have great respect for Honda's engineering, but their computer systems department should all fall on their swords.
Almost there

I was able to save over $4K by purchasing a leftover 2020 CR-V HYBRID Touring last month (January 2021). I had considered buying a 2021 Venza Limited but I didn’t want to spend over $40K on a vehicle. The CR-V Hybrid is smooth and quiet and handling is quite good. It’s a great sized vehicle. The leather seats are super comfortable. The backseat is spacious. I like the remote start, which will come in handy in the FL summer, automatic wipers and high beams, and all of the safety features Honda has placed in this vehicle. I also like the push button gear selectors. There are a few downsides in my opinion. I am not getting the posted average MPG as stated on the Window Sticker. The infotainment system is a little slow. It takes a bit for the directional guidelines to appear after you put the car in reverse. I wish the reverse camera was placed a bit higher on the back of the car so that you would get a higher/larger view behind you. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system works totally different than other vehicles I have had and or driven. On other vehicles I’ve had, when a vehicle is fast approaching your vehicle, the BSM icon lights up prior to the car actually getting in your blindspot. The BSM in the CR-V only lights up when a vehicle is actually in your blindspot. I am still getting used to it. As a Top of the line model with a sticker price relatively close to $40K, I think all windows should be automatic up/down, not just the front ones. Ventilated front seats should be standard. There also should be a light in the glove box. Every vehicle has its pro’s and cons. There is a perfect one out there. If it weren’t for the big discrepancy regarding MPG, I would give the CR-V 4.75 stars

smooth ride very comfortable outstanding radio sound 5 miles more per gallon than non hybrid. I paid full list price for a Honda crv-EX hybrid model. Still only $31,000 including freight. The power, the gas mileage, all the safety features included, the 160 watt stereo blows the roof off. What about the sun roof-standard. Forget trying to get a discount, this car is worth a full $40,000. Did I mention all wheel drive included. It's called a small size suv , but beats all the other small and medium size ones on the road. Go down to your dealer, give Them $31,000 list for a Honda CRV-EX hybrid. Put in the bank the extra monies a Rav 4 or any other Suv you were considering, especially the so called midsize models. You'll be so happy, and loving your decision every day.
