A cleaner, greener SUV which is well-made and comfortable and a solid drive.
Styling
Distinctive enough to give the CRV plenty of road presence, although not everyone will appreciate the slightly awkward proportions.
Handling
Safe and predictable as the limits approach, but theres no fun to be had from throwing the CRV down a twisty road.
Comfort
Impressively quiet at cruising speeds and with a nice, compliant ride quality. The driving position deserves praise, too.
Quality
As solidly constructed as youd expect something wearing the Honda badge to be. Lots of premium-feeling materials in the cabin, too.
Performance
Both 2.0 litre petrol and 2.2 litre diesel engine give respectable performance, with the diesel having superior real-world pace.
Roominess
Spacious enough to take four adults in comfort, and with a reasonably-sized boot, too.
Costs
Decent fuel economy and likely strong residuals mean the CRV should be easy on the wallet when compared to segment rivals.
Value
Good standard equipment means the CRV offers strong value compared to segment rivals.
Stereo
Excellent audio system provides clear, crisp sound throughout the cabin. The advanced satnav system works well, too.
Added Extras
