2016 CRV R.I.P

Alas, my daughter totaled my 2016 Honda CRV EX-L in 2023. Fortunately, the airbags deployed, so the automobile did its job, daughter was fine. I test drove 2020 & 2021 CRV’s, and found them to be noisier than my ‘16 CRV, due to the updated turbo engine. I wound up getting a 2020 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring reserve. Heck of a car. Elegant looking, luxurious interior. Salesman called it “ a Poor Man’s BMW!“ Great description! Recently, US news ranked the Mazda CX-5 #1 compact SUV & the Honda CRV number 10… Still Honda is a solid Car. One problem: experienced hesitation with the 2016 CRV prior to it demise. (Previous review: 2016-2022): Have enjoyed driving my 2016 Honda CRV more than any car I’ve had including: Hyundai Santa Fe, three series BMW, Chevy suburban, and Nissan maximas It handles, holds the road beautifully, smooth as silk braking (I’ve driven 60,000 miles, and replaced brakes for the first time in my 3rd year; that’s how good they are). Adequate, although not neck-snapping, power. A few quirks: Due to configuration of rear window, a big blind spot on right side, so I need to lean forward to make sure there is no car on my right when changing lanes. Honda has compensated with a side camera, to see oncoming cars on passenger side, But at night, difficult to see…Additionally, when going downhill, the Honda will stay in the same gear, straining a bit; so I have to give it a little gas to get it to shift into a better gear. Value is excellent: Sticker price was $30,745 for this 2016 CRV all-wheel-drive model EX-L; we paid $28,711 before sales tax. Car comes with leather seats, rear view camera, all wheel drive. Good gas mileage; on level Highway, I can coax it to almost 30 mpg. It says 25/31 on the sticker. Local driving 17–19 mpg I enthusiastically recommend test driving this car; it was in the top 10 for a reason.

Vehicle is enjoyable. I keep vehicles very clean but the CRV is difficult to keep clean under the doors and lower body. Entertainment system is not intuitive and still have difficulty finding controls and setting system. Hands fee voice commands rarely work. Mechanically perfect, typical of Honda. Great acceleration and handling. Update at just over two years. Still love the vehicle, drives tight and handles like a dream in the winter(snow). Drove a 2018 CRV EX-L as a loner for a couple of days and actually like the way the 2016 drives better. Highly satisfied with CRV and will purchase another when it's time to replace the 2016. Still going strong. Coming up on 44K miles and still drives like new. Averaging around 28 MPG combined but do mostly highway driving. Normal maintenance done by the dealer. 2/12/22 Very little mileage over the past year. Still solid and not showing any mechanical signs of age. 7/14/2023 Just under 64,000 miles. Vehicle going strong. No problems. Replace rear brakes last year and now needs front brakes. Stopped going to dealer but still insist on OEM parts. Excellent vehicle. Highly reccomend!

I Found Something Else

I originally thought the CR V would be what I ended up with, but I got the Toyota Rav4 Hybrid and found that for the money and features (and gas savings) that was the way to go. I wanted an AWD vehicle with plenty of cargo space , active driving assists, navigation in the dash, of course blue tooth, and the ability to quickly merge onto the highway. The CR V definitely had many advantages to the RAV4, like the right hand lane change video (..but not left hand for some strange reason?), CR V has a little bit more cargo room (the Rav4 hybrid battery steals slightly more cargo space than the non hybrid). But the Rav4 hybrid has better acceleration, much better MPG!, and a power lift gate...which for my wife who has issues with her hands and wrists is a blessing. I also liked the styling of the RAV4 a little bit better than the CR V. However, I prefer the square box SUV style than the "somewhere between car and SUV" style that appears to be the current...oh well can't have everything. I pretty much was a Hyundai guy (had a 2008 Santa Fe), but the had priced themselves out of the market for me ($33k for something similar to the CRV and Rav4 who where in the high $20k's).
