I am totally in love with my new CR-V. The safety features on the Touring model are amazing! I was on the fence about trading my Toyota Highlander, but am so glad I did! This SUV is just awesome!

If you're looking for comfort, reliability, cargo space, and road trip ease of handling, this is a great vehicle. My only complaints after owning it for 2 years are that 1. poor handling in mountain driving curves and tight corners. As my son said "it handles like a brick"....translation mini van on a smaller scale. 2. Bluetooth audio is poor quality and inconsistent in it's functioning. 3. Radio controls are cheap looking and feeling.

I love my Honda SUV. At first the programming of the navigation system was very challenging. I finally understand how to use it. It handles very well on the road. It is very comfortable. My current challenge is programming it to read my text messages. When I first bought it, it would read my text messages but now it won't

So far loving my new car. Did not get the leather upgrade and no navigation, the downside is does not have Sirius Radio without that package. Handles nice and so far not days! After 2 yrs.....still like my Honda. Don't like the radio operation. Seats could be more comfortable for long trips and wish I had purchased it with the GPS. Overall I would buy another one, still love it 4/2019, love my cr-v after a couple of years. The interior is a little noisy with the radio on and seats still not great but overall would do it again Nearly 4 yrs since I purchased it and still enjoy it. A newer model would have to be quieter inside to consider, otherwise still love it Sold it to my daughter. Bought the touring

Roomy Ride

I'm enjoying my new CRV SE after upsizing from a ten year old Honda Fit. The CRV is much more roomy than other cars in its class. The similar sized Ford and Toyota seem quite claustrophobic in comparison. I am also impressed with the cargo space in the CRV. I was able to haul a small love seat in the back of the car with plenty of room to spare. The back seats are easy to lower, even for a woman over 55. The CRV is a good height - no climbing up or stooping down to get into the driver's seat. The front seats are a little shallow for tall drivers, but there is plenty of leg room. The car is very responsive and has great brakes. After driving a tiny Fit, I'm still getting used to a larger car, but the back-up camera is a big help. Bluetooth, Audio and Aux systems work well. I'm counting on Honda dependability.
