Fantastic vehicle and a huge upgrade from my 2019 CRV Touring, which was an excellent vehicle. 2026 is quiet, has a smooth ride, tremendous on gas, handles extremely well and has a straight forward, well-functioning infotainment system. Love my new vehicle.

I want to like it, BUT…

5000 miles with no trouble, except for a recall. Good gas mileage, looks nice, however: 1) I get a backache every time I drive it more than 1/2 hour, no matter how I adjust the seat. 2) It’s supposed to be a sport-utility vehicle. So, what happened to the utility part? The glove compartment is too small. My 2014 CRV has storage on both sides of the console, and one above my left knee. All these have vanished on the 2025. Huh? 3) I have learned to not trust the auto braking. A car ahead of us on an interstate took an exit. Meanwhile our Honda braked hard. There was no one ahead of us, but I nearly got rear-ended in the name of safety. Boo hiss! 4) Performance is sluggish. 5) I can’t make my peace with the door locks. It seems we are always facing a locked door that I thought was supposed to be open. Conversely the car fails to lock as we walk away because we didn’t do something in the ‘correct’ order, or the key is now in the house while we unloaded. Annoying. If these things won’t bother you then, yes, you will be happy with the smooth quiet ride.

Not Happy

CS/Ohio, 08/17/2025

I had a 2017 CRV AWD pretty well loaded. Decided to trade in for a new 2026 CRV Hybrid Touring. Thing I like - mpg, drive is comfortable and it’s a nice blue color. Not happy with the following; no satellite radio, no homelink for garage opener, only black wheel hubs (no chrome/alloy option) and the sound when baking up (plays annoying noise). I paID a lot for this vehicle and am mostly upset that I overlooked these things. That’s why I’m writing this review- there are many other vehicles that have more to offer their customers - DO NOT BUY THIS VEHICLE
