2024 Honda CR-V Consumer Reviews

Love this CRV-Hybrid
I've had the car for almost 2 weeks and it has been so smooth to drive. The heated seats and steering wheel are really lovely especially living in Maine. My favorite part is the fact that I filled up the tank for the first time after 400 miles at only 11 gallons. My old Jeep Grand Cherokee required 22 gallons to go 400 miles. Half the amount of gas (and money!) to go just as far and with a smooth ride. Amazing!

Great car, terrible seats
I've had my '24 CRV Ex-L for 3 weeks. It's a great car -- very pretty, quiet, smooth ride, and the infotainment system is great. I absolutely LOVE the car. BUT, the driver seat is horrendously uncomfortable. I've never had an issue with seating in cars, on planes, or trains but something about the seats make them unbearable. My back hurts for hours even after a 10-minute drive to the store. I've tried a variety of cushions from Amazon and nothing seems to fix the problem. The seats are firm, and although they have seemingly infinite adjustments, the bucket-style "slope" of the seats and firmness can't be changed. I only chose to write this review after getting on Edmunds to look for a new car. I will likely try to trade it in and just accept the financial loss, which is hard; I did a lot of research and I can't find another vehicle I like as much as this one. But, the seats are just so bad that keeping the car isn't an option. For reference, I'm reasonably fit, 5'9", 175 lbs and in my mid 40's. I test drove the car a few times and did not pick up on this issue during those drives, so give yourself plenty of time to get a feel for the car during the drive.

Not a Honda guy but loving this
2/13/25. Yesterday I was on the freeway and it was raining. Lots of traffic and I was having a hectic morning commute and late for an appointment. Admittedly, I was not paying attention and the freeway came to an unexpected halt in front of me. The vehicle amazingly took over, sent warning signals to me which caught my attention and then it applied the brakes just in time stopping the vehicle from hitting the car in front of me at around 40-50 mph. I was able to grab the wheel and move out of the way but the way but no way I would have had enough time had it not been for the vehicles auto braking doing its job. It was quite remarkable as it was raining, the probability to hydroplane under these circumstances was quite high but nothing of the sort, it felt completely under control, no locking brakes etc. This really was a close call and I have a whole new found regard and confidence for the engineering of my Honda. and yes the lesson I need to be more present behind the wheel was not lost on me. This is my first Honda. To be honest, typically I drive German luxury cars etc. but I have been doing a ton of driving on really harsh roads and just needed something I could get great mpg and not have to worry about getting a major jolt when I hit a pot hole. This thing has absolutely hit the mark. my mpg isn't 40 or whatever as advertised but I am getting 30 plus which for me is outrageous. I put 50 bucks in the tank and it goes 410-425 miles, awesome!. I am used to 14 or 15 mpg.. even if you drive it I sport mode and really hit the throttle it still is like 28 mpg... The seats are super comfortable and I love the blend of the touch screen media along with all the hard buttons that feel solid and quality. Another awesome Honda parlor trick is the footprint of the car is basically that of a compact car yet it has great cargo space. if you check the specs its cargo area is that of MUCH larger vehicles. Although I really wish it had a 360 camera. I think if they introduced that in future models I would trade it in for that in a heartbeat. handles solid, steering feel is decent and decent missing a few options (360 camera, ventilated seats) it has bunch of little tech surprises that aren't necessarily on the window sticker and reveal themselves after you drive it for some time. Also, I paid less then 40k which these days seems like a ton of value for something with solid engineering and build. I definitely recommend this vehicle.

Nice vehicle with bad electrical
The second day I bought the vehicle, the radio screen was not working and turned completely black. The wireless charging pad was not working properly, the charge was on and off.
Love this car!!!
This is my third Honda CRV, but this is the first hybrid I've owned. I love this car. It's very room and comfortable inside. The exterior is beautiful. The hybrid engine is very responsive and the hybrid aspect is very smooth going from gas to electric. I love that I don't have to plug this hybrid in but get the benefits of the hybrid engine. I visit the gas station about one every three weeks. This is the one!!
