Used 2015 Honda CR-V EX 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl CVT) Consumer Reviews
MPG is a lie
I purchased a 2015 Honda CR-V AWD with the sticker claiming 27/33 with an average of 30 mpg. I am barely making it to 27 mpg on the highway. The car is currently in the shop (only a week and a half after I bought it) for vibrating and shuddering. I was told by service that Honda is aware of the problem and is working on a solution. He said, "They believe it is a software problem". I am a previous Toyota owner, and I have to say, I am regretting making a switch to Honda. I am currently thinking about making a trade to Toyota. I am a commuter and the MPG is a big NEGATIVE for me.
Last Car I Will Ever Buy, Bought 2015 CR-V EX AWD
Having retired and living in San Francisco (meaning I don't drive much) I decided to buy a compact SUV that I intend to be my last car (because I no longer update my car every few years). Bottom Line: In the compact SUV market there's two brand models that compete annually to be king of the mountain: Toyota Rav4, and Honda CR-V. There are rabid fans and detractors of either, but really when you come down to it you can't go wrong with owning either the Toyota or Honda.

Excellent car.
Great car; comfortable, not one problem of any sort. It has plenty of room and everything on it works flawlessly. There is a small vibration when it idles for a while with all the accessories turned off. But it's mild. I probably wouldn't have noticed it except for all the carrying-on. If I turn up the fan on the ac just a tad or use the headlights or anything that nudges the rpm up a bit, it goes away. But why bother? It's a non-issue. What is an issue is that this is a great car that runs perfectly, never gives a problem and is a pleasure to drive, both in the city and on the highway. My gas mileage is consistently better than advertised, but then I don't slam it around, either. I consistently get around 30-32 mpg in city driving. I have zero complaints about my CR-V and plan to drive it until the wheels fall off. Then, I'll probably buy another one.

Still solid
Update: 100,000 miles, still working great, no problems. Still great gas mileage. Cvt works perfectly. Have only changed oil, brake fluid, cvt fluid, lots of tires (live in mountains use winter tires year round), lots of wiper blades, wiper fluid. Put in bigger battery after only two years, which has been great since. Got the awd ex model. Hwy mileage has been as high as 37 on 300 mile trip. Smooth, Quiet. I am 6'3, and have plenty of room even in back seats. The cvt works perfectly. It doesnt use fake shift points. Probably the best cvt available. Much quicker than I expected. Also climbs well, as we live in a high altitude mountain town. Great traction in ice and snow, with Michelin X-ice tires. Could use an inch or two more ground clearance for the big snow days (we got over 50 feet of snow two of the years owning this car). Car isn't very manly, but performs better than the numbers would imply, gets better gas mileage than EPA estimates, has lots of width inside, handles better than an SUV should, and carries my tools around real well.
