The model
Read full Honda CR-V reviewThe Honda CR-V has sharp driving dynamics and lots of standard equipment, but it falls short of claiming the top spot in the family SUV class because it's noisy on motorways and has limited rear head room. We think the e:HEV version in Elegance trim makes the most sense for private buyers, while the e:PHEV plug-in hybrid is the one to go for if you're a 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.
