I’ve had my 2025 CRV Hybrid Sport-L for a few months and about 1,500 miles. Average MPG is 42.1 with 30% highway driving. We love the leather seats, moonroof, comfortable interior, and how it drives flawlessly. I’m impressed with how many feature are included at this price. I’ve driven Luxus’ and Acura’s of family members and see no difference in quality or comfort. I highly recommend this vehicle and have no complaints.

This is my 2nd consecutive CR-V. Coming out of a 2022 EX-L. Love the hybrid powertrain . Went for the sport touring over the sport-L as it's only $1500 more one you add AWD to the sport-L (standard AWD in sport touring). Getting 38.2 mpg in mixed driving. Plenty of space for a small SUV Other things I like are updated carplay and android auto (both wireless) as well as lane keep assist/ traffic jam assist systems and Bose audio system (I always disconnect the anc module in Hondas, they are pointless in my opinion). Very quiet and smooth ride. I opted for the grey interior which is 2 tone and glad I did. Looks very sharp. Things I don't like are the front seat shape (side bolsters very high and less comfortable then previous generation) as well an the removal of items making them dealer options that came standard even in the EX-L trim (rear cargo cover, homelink) but all manufacturers heading this route to save/make more money out of every sale. Overall I really like my CR-V even though it's a little on the pricey side. I think you will be hard pressed to find a better small SUV.

Overall great. But Chronic Tech Issues

This is our third Honda CRV (2018, 2021, 2025). High quality construction, rides great. Just a solid vehicle. No other small SUV is put together this well. One big issue and one small issue. Very frustrated with my 2025 Sport-L entertainment system and Apple CarPlay. The gauge audio display setting (in front of the steering wheel) gets stuck and does not show what’s playing in CarPlay. C’mon Honda - there are 1.6 billion iPhone users in the world. Please figure this out. We had similar problems in our 2021 CRV. It works fine in our Nissan. This is not an iPhone issue. It’s a Honda issue. The other is just front cabin storage. Cup holders and bin space seems to be reduced. And the little tray in the arm rest was not included (I purchased that separately online). Again, C’mon Honda! The CRV would be the best SUV in the market if the recorded better and they included some low-cost basics.

2025 CR-V and it’s near death steering system

Our 5-week old CR-V EX-L wanders dangerously at highway speeds — and crosses painted lane lines — even with the lane-control system engaged. Also, the smartphone-linked navigation system often drops the needed connection and, much worse, the screen goes blank when you leave internet connected areas, thus leaving you without information when it’s most needed. Another dangerous fault is the unsafe headlights that are verifiably inadequate when driving on dark roads in inclement weather. This is our sixth CR-V. Our previous models have been flawless. Obviously something at Honda has radically changed. These faults are obviously dangerous — the dealer has ignored us — so we plan to implement the Ohio Lemon law and, hopefully, get our money back.

Outstanding Comfort and Performance - Honda CRV H

I recently purchased the Honda CRV Hybrid, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. This car is exceptionally comfortable, making every drive a pleasant experience. The ride is incredibly smooth, and the cabin is so well-insulated that there’s virtually no noise intrusion, allowing for a peaceful journey every time. The sound system is fantastic, delivering clear and immersive audio, which enhances the overall driving experience. The navigation system, paired with the entertainment system, is user-friendly and intuitive, and the touch panel is responsive and easy to operate. Every feature works seamlessly together, making it a joy to use. Overall, the Honda CRV Hybrid is an amazing purchase at a reasonable price, offering excellent value for the quality and features it provides. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and well-equipped vehicle.
