The model
Read full Honda CR-V reviewThe Honda CR-V has sharp driving dynamics and an extensive standard equipment list but falls short of claiming the top spot in the family SUV class due to high noise levels on a motorway, a somewhat basic interior for the price and limited rear headroom. For private buyers, the e:HEV version in Elegance trim makes the most sense. The e:PHEV is the best choice for company car users.
The trim
See full equipmentDespite being the entry-level trim, Elegance comes with loads of standard equipment. In fact, the kit list includes luxuries you probably wouldn’t expect, including front and rear parking sensors, a rear-view camera, heated front seats, electrically adjustable front seats, wireless phone-charging and a heated steering wheel.
The engine
See full engine specsWith a total of 181bhp and instant shove off the line, thanks to its electric motor, you’ll never find yourself struggling for pace when you’re at the wheel of the CR-V. Better still, it’s efficient and manages almost 43mpg.
