Used 2023 Honda CR-V SUV Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2023 Honda CR-V comes in five available trim levels: LX, EX, Sport, EX-L and Sport Touring. Sport and Sport Touring models get the hybrid powertrain, while the LX, EX and EX-L come with the standard turbocharged gas engine. The first four trims are front-wheel-drive and offer optional all-wheel drive, while the Sport Touring comes with standard AWD. Keep reading for our breakdown of what you can expect from each trim.
Which CR-V trim does Edmunds recommend?
We'd put our money on the EX-L trim level. It's the best equipped trim to offer the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, which we find is better to drive than the hybrid powertrain. For the extra money over the EX, the EX-L gives you leather seats, a better stereo system and, importantly, the larger touchscreen with wireless smartphone connectivity.
