Best CR-V review on UA-cam. Your explanation is very clean and objective.
+Cagri Yilmaz way to go! Join us for more reviews!
This is why I like UA-cam reviews so much, random dogs running and those parts do not get edited out, awesome! ;-)
+Kobbetop love dogs so i wanted to keep him in :) And indeed we want to show you authentic stuff, not faked one
I love the random dog that just trots by at 2:14. :)
Nice review, as always, Thomas.
+lettersfromtheleft thanks =) heh yeah loved that too
Thanks again Thomas and team.
One word about the seats for tall people, remember they also have to let shorter people have their feet on the floor... wouldn't work (or hurt) if the seat base was longer (adjustable means extra cost/weight... hardly a priority for rear seats).
+sebxx good point yeah
Another great Thomas review. Can I suggest adding reliability comments on the brands that you review?
Great and honest straight to the point review, Thanks Thomas, many a japanese cars never seem to design their seats for tall drivers. As you have said, am not too comfortable with the design of the back and leather looks cheap.
+jan singh thanks jan!
Good review again, i like your channel from the start.
What SUV in the compact segment would you prefer with reference to a strong diesel combined with automatic gear box and all wheel drive (except "premium" brands).
All the best.
+MrCommodoreAtari thanks! Did you see our latest Mazda CX-5 facelift video? I would exactly go for that one. With auto gear box and the 2,5 NA petrol. If going bigger and more expensive (but still not the premium brands), VW Touareg (also got facelift review of that one)
that leather is the same premium Milano leather used in the higher trims acura. Very soft.
A very detailed review, far better than most in the Uk, one thing i did want to see what the sound system, in the Uk it says the EX top of the range has a subwoofer, but it does not mention an amp etc, a little more detail on this would have been appreciated. Great work though.
for me always Honda ,because they have extremely durable and high-quality engines, especially gasoline. Thanks for the great test!
Thomas, I agree that the rear end is not the most beautiful part of it. For the rest, this car is a splendid one. By the way, nice smile of yours, hahaha. Good idea to introduce a little humor in your videos ;-)
+carlos fernandez =)
i m always happy to see ur new upload...Thanks Autogefühl ... Mj ali From Pakistan
outward visibility is the best in Hondas. They really care about visibility!
Great job again Thomas.
maybe in the future you can test a Subaru Forester or Subaru Outback.
thanks Toni
+Baczoni Erno thanks! Next Subaru will be the new Levorg!
+Autogefühl Thank you.
how do you fill this small engine in acceleration and how the gearbox works -it works soft and smooth--do you fill the changies ?
the bike and the dog and Thomas kept talking about the car. Funny
=)
Ah! The CR-V from the Making Of.
yeah!
I'm waiting for Mitsubishi Outlander 2016 test. I hope it will be soon.
P.S like always great review :)
+Maciek Senderski thanks! Next new Mitsubishi coming will be the all-new L200 !
Thank you for another good review Thomas! What is the HDMI outlet for? Playing things on the infotainment screen?
+Angus MacGyver thanks! Good question. Didnt find that one out yet
+Angus MacGyver it is for Apple maps to work.
You get an adaptor then plug in your iphone via hdmi. Then the screen turns into your apple maps. and you can use serri hands free. The apple Honda app costs 70 dollars on the apple store.
Hi Thomas. As always, a very good review. These reviews, as always, are the best detailed reviews - in any media format - for a car-nut like me. And interesting to compare this car, and its interior, with the New Tiguan interior, which - in my opinion only - is more premium; and drives just a little better. I think! (PS. congrats to all the team - sound, camera, edit etc!).
thanks, tell your friends as well! :)
Will do. Have done! Keep up the good work.
+gordon bennett fftgb. ywcr. gt
Very good review as always! I really like CR-V. I wonder why you still don't have RAV4, Forester and Kuga videos??? Please do it for us! Thank you Autogefühl! :)
+Vitalii Gladun Thanks! Kuga is right here: ua-cam.com/video/Re9y1Z1IalA/v-deo.html And RAV4, I got the same plattform model NX300h :) ua-cam.com/video/gTh7s55Z_0s/v-deo.html
+Autogefühl Thanks for Kuga ) NX is more premium one, don't think it's normal to compare it with RAV )))
+Vitalii Gladun They indeed use the same vehicle platform. But sure, it is different.
Skoda Yeti and Audi Q3 use the same platform too but who will compare this cars? :)
+Vitalii Gladun heh yeah :) The Yeti is a great car though, I dont like the exterior, but it is probably the most practical car out there
Hopefully the 160 PS diesel engine will be available in the Civic too. Nice review BTW.
+Stuart Price thanks stuart!
i Have 2016 mine its not 1.6 diesel.or 2.0 L Petrol.Mine its a 2.4 Petrol we say GASOLINE 185 CV or HP,,,Can That be possible? Oh forget tp mention Automatic. cvt transmission AWD,,,,question if I take that to Portugal do you think I will have Parts if I need them?
Hi and thank you for a good review. During the testdrive, your right knee looks kind of cramped and without space. Was that the actual situation or could you have moved the seat back to get more legroom?
Afaik actual
The front design is you like it or you hate it. In my opinion Honda needs to work on their exterior design. Good product but the wrapping is not attractive.
I see many incremental improvements. Honda doesn't want to "offend" anyone with a drastic change. The navigation screen has real buttons, but the transmission shifter looks like something out of a video game. With Honda's mission to achieve the best performance with the highest fuel economy, the 5 and 6 speed automatic transmissions should be replaced with CVT or 9 speed automatics as soon as possible.
+gbriank1 video game yes =)
+gbriank1 This car is ONLY available with a CVT in the US. Also my biggest problem is the fact that the petrol engine it has is naturally aspirated.
+ast5515 NA is usually good imho! And CVT is sometimes too? But not in this case ?
***** I'm Hungarian and prices here are kinda high, because we have 27% VAT + other taxes for BHP and weight, so the extra price of the diesel places this car out of my reach. And also, people here make half as much money as the western parts of Europe. This car is very much high end for the standards of this country. And reviewers who have driven the petrol version say it consumes at least 10 liters / 100 km if you wanna move at an acceptable pace, and it's really weak below 3000 RPM.
Great Review.
thanks !!
@autogefuhl what would you choose for a young family with 2 small kids between 2016: Honda CRV 2.0 Petrol Manual, Toyota RAV4 Hybrid CVT or Mazda CX5 2.0 Petrol Manual? Thanks!
Hmm, the Honda has most space, the Toyota is the most reliable one, the Mazda is most fun to drive. Pick :)
@@autogefuehl I own an old 2007 Honda Accord 2.0 Petrol and I have a tendency of going with the CRV ...I know you have tested all of them. Which one is better in terms of built quality? I want something quiter than the current car. I know from your review Toyota's CVT is very loud ...
What car did you choose in the end?
I am in the same situation as you.
lol @2:14
Woof xD
The dog is a paid actor
I wouldn't go for the CR-V. The Mazda CX-5 has a better interior, better performance, better looks (for my taste) a better infotainment and a better quality materials. As you said the CR-V is kind of lazy but the CX-5 is more agile and nimble. Great review as always
+Miguel Berghs yeah but CX-5 is a little bit smaller. I'd go with the CX-7 but it's not available in Germany. Kia Sorento doesn't have the right engine and transmission, Hyundai Santa Fe looks very outdated regarding the interior. And then there is Toyota RAV4 but not available as diesel with CVT and 4wd. At the moment, the CR-V is my favourite.
You are the best !
Appreciated man!
Hi Thomas, great review as usual... A question, what about the all new Honda CR-V 2017?
+Alejandro Jara thx! Is there a new generation coming?
Autogefühl Hi Thomas, yes the 5th generation of CRV with Turbo Power (like Honda Civic).
It was launched in the USA a few months ago. In Chile it will arrive in the second semestre (maybe August).
Autogefühl mmm, In Germany has not yet been launched. My mistake.
Hi! Nice review as allways! Will u make a review of the new civic type r? Thanx!
+Edin Boss Thanks! Yeah we ll try to get one of those next year!
Thanks a lot
Interesting, you get a lot more features compared to the Canadian version. We miss the parking sensors, soft pad for the knees, also the headlights are not as nice and no washer for the headlights. Not to mention the panoramic sunroof!
See the all-new generation here:

What Kind of motor oil you using. is it oW 20 like here or different? Please let me know Thank You.
Hey Thomas. Great review as always. I came here because I was curious to know what you thought of the older CRV. Price differences between this and the new one in Rome are €10K so my question is whether, having tested both, do you think that I should go for the newer one? It is worth that extra €10K?
Hm, if u re happy with bluetooth connection , then maybe save 10 k ;)
@@autogefuehl Thank you for the quick response.
On a test drive I could not find a comfortable seating position because stearing wheel fly out adjustment was ridiculously small. Also, the old 5-gear auto gearbox it terrible. 2.0 petrol combined with that gearbox is completely anemic. Interrior is quite good, though.
+Roman „Rams“ Gubanov new 9-speed-auto is very good!
Thank you for the review, Thomas und Autogefühl. I have to say that I cannot see anything charming from this car. The exterior is very strange and looks confused, especially the front. And the back looks to big from the profile as you said in the video. The interior is messy too, too many screens, the dashboard screen looks 10 years old, as we are able to see the pixles., this is ok with my Giuilietta QV for exemple, but not with a new Honda ;-). I find for exemple that Hyundai Tucson (although it's not perfect) or Mazda CX-5 are much more charming. Keep up with the awesome job, Thomas ;-)
+Bastie Arte thanks for watching m8! Its still a good car but yeah I agree with ur thoughts
Ciao Thomas!
Did you check your shoes for bicycle tire marks?!? 😉
Car reviewing can be dangerous, no?
My parents recently bought a 2011 CRV (one owner, low mileage, like new!) and they couldn't be happier.
Question: why are the prices so much higher in Europe vs N. America (in general).
You have so much more competition with the manufacturers I'm surprised at the high comparative prices.
Tax policies??
Great review, as usual.
Ciao.
Forgot to ask!
Is the 9spd transmission the ZF supplied 9spd?
Grazie.
+Mario Dalla Riva haha yeah always searching for 'safe' spots =) Indeed, cars are WAY more expensive than in the US. Not sure really why ... taxes yes, for sure. Thats one reason. However they arent that high in German, here it is more about the VAT, but that doenst even play a role for business customers.
+Mario Dalla Riva Exactly Mario, good point! Thats why it is awesome.
+Huw Williams yep indeed also in the Evoque we ve just tested. Interesting with that Chrysler stuff!
+Huw Williams Interesting. Thx!
thank you for the information, I would like to know if it is long enough for someone to sleep in if the seats are down
depends on your height
German cars are bland looking inside and well over priced.
Dorothy I would recommend getting a roof box pop up tent that comes with ladders.
oh and about the iACC I don't find the idea to always slowdown when someone merges to be a good idea, my Golf7 do that only if then it's confirmed they are slower.
+sebxx yeah I found the MB/Volvo/VAG systems also better
Somehow I feel that this car is more for the US market. By the way Thomas, you are sitting too close to the steering wheel. Look at your right knee in this video... It is too close to the dashboard. Was that because the chair could not go back any further?
+Ronald de Rooij I could, but thing is that most people sit too far away - then you cannot really build pressure for an emergency braking!
He sounds like someone in a Monty Python Sketch 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Someone I know has this one. Still doesn't strike me as a looker, though it's good w/ features. I prefer the Touareg to this one though.
question! Do CRV and Touareg cost the same in your country? Because back in Malaysia, the touareg costs 3 times more , so for you to compare it to a touareg, its absurd hahah
The exterior design of the cute dog @2:14 looks much better than the facelifted CR-V...
+Stefan Wimmer =)
+Autogefühl Hey Thomas, will you review the new BMW X1 soon? Maybe the 25d-version? ;)
+Stefan Wimmer hey, BMW 6Series will be next - after that I could go for x1
+Autogefühl Sounds great! Thx! =)
Seems to be a massive colour-difference between the body and the bumpers..
b fydd at ed rye tree 4yy
very good review, a little bit too critical
+Matt Dathew thanks matt !
hey Thomas, I'm a car enthusiastic and love to drive i have decided to go with octi 1.8 TSI i have a family and dogs to carry, this new CR V has got my attention as I've heard it drives like a sedan. should i go with octavia or CRV as crv being a SUV will be pratical.
+nakul singh The Octavia offers more space in the boot. I like the SUV driving feeling but the Octavia is one of the best cars in price/performance
+Autogefühl thanks for the suggestion. btw, you do the best UA-cam car reviews of all very informative and pratical. Thanks :)
Can Not understand ,how this car can be a Best seller.
Check the new generation: ua-cam.com/video/J47KIdBQGVs/v-deo.html
Is this review also is same for 2015 model as well? since the face-lift came in 2015.
+Passion & Reason yes, same
Bro is bonnet / hood visible while driving from driver seat in normal driving position for person of height 5’9’’
Wiederholt wurde sich im Vorfeld nicht mit dem Fahrzeug vollständig beschäftigt (Glasdach). Ansonsten, wie immer, sehr Umfangreiche Vorstellung.
Woher weißt du, wie sehr wir uns mit den Fahrzeugen im Vorfeld beschäftigen? Ich glaube, es gibt ein anderes Medium, dass sich so ausführlich damit beschäftigt. Mehr geht auch nicht mehr, denn neben schlafen und essen bleibt keine Zeit mehr.
Der Umfang sowie der erkennbare Anspruch, Detaillierter und Professioneller als alle anderen zu sein beantwortet die Frage. Und dabei fallen halt solche Ausrutscher stärker auf. Nichts des do trotz: Macht weiter so, ist hier ein Novum!
I have this car. Same colour but with beige coloured leather seats. I agree with what Thomas says but I suspect the challenge for manufacturers of SUV's is not to produce a vehicle that looks identical to others or looks like a box on wheels. Thomas mentioned the electric seats and that he would have to reset the position after moving the seat back. Not really accurate as he would have been supplied with two keys. Each key is linked to the electric seat settings. Basically set the seat to your preferred setting and depending on which key you have the seat will move to your preferred setting when you approach the vehicle. My complaint about the interior is that the buttons beside the infotainment system are too small and that some of the information is displayed on 3 different displays. I would have liked to have seen him take the vehicle off-road. Other than that I'm quite pleased with the car.
+Ron Falconer thanks for the feedback !
price ?
Nice review! Do you know why we get outdated vehicles in Germany? I mean the US car reviewers show the newer 2016 version already, with a straight shifter like you'd prefer. Same with the Civic.
That should be the engine version?
+Autogefühl nein in den USA haben sie schon Fahrzeugversion mit dem Schaltknauf, wo es nur hoch und runter geht. Wir müssen hier alte Fahrzeugmodelle im Angebot haben.
+Max Krug hmm seltsam
No, bc in the US it has a CVT and no Diesel only the 2.4 liter. Totally different.
Oft habe ich Probleme mit Kopfanstößen, wenn ein Panoramadach verbaut ist.
Ohne eins, hat man oft viel mehr Kopffreiheit
.wie ist es hier? Kommt man auch als großer Mensch damit klar?
Netter Herr wieso machen Sie keine Videos mit deutscher Sprache ??? Leider verstehe ich das meiste nicht, dabei würde ich mir sehr gerne Ihre Videos anschauen.
+Ezda Azadi international community!
Why not learn English you Turk
Ezda Azadi es gibt andere Kanäle. Du musst außer deutsch sonst englisch, französisch und chinesisch lernen. Du muss Deutschland integrieren, Turk )) Wenn deutschen die Welt integrieren können, kannst du auch... vwdeni braucht etwas mehr Sauerstoff, lebt unter Abgas Skandale
Which engine is better? Diesel or gasolin??
+Roces5th depends on the purpose
diesel engine has different auto transmission ,is it much better than in petrol engine? thank you for reply:)
havent tested both sorry
completely agree with thomas about the fat bulbous rear. it looks so off putting
Nice dog :))))
+Liviu Florin =)
when will you do the review the Honda HR-v? :D
I drive a 2004 Honda Accord and it just won't break, no problems. And I still love the looks of it, doens't seem 13 years old (the model came out in 2003) in my opinion.
When it starts to give us trouble, I would consider Honda again of course and since the Accord is not available anymore in Europe, the CR-V would be the obvious choice. But I too have to say it's quite ugly. Especially the exterior but also the interior. I'd love a Tucson outside and a CX5 inside with the dimension of the CR-V ;-)
But, looks aren't everything, so maybe it would be the CR-V. But I hope that our Accord will do for 2 more years and that the new CR-V model will be prettier.
+Markus Koller yeah I share that view. See our Hyundai Tucson review here: ua-cam.com/video/bwbb6dfxBoY/v-deo.html
And Mazda CX-5: ua-cam.com/video/AMGoayjnPUk/v-deo.html
The gear meant to be like that, Not the German way you like. And it’s Not loose as you said. You were a bit Harsh when shitting the gear. Is A Japanese car mr Adolf😂
Света привет прижал в Гостьте
I bought 2016 cr-v ex-l 5 mounth ago . This car has vibration. When I turn on a/c waithing for stop sign. I thing it's a/c compu problems. so I went delar shop. and complain abouth that happened\\ but they said it's just normal....... should check youtube before buy cr-v
daewon--Checking youtube for what?? You have a crooked dealer. A competent one would fix it.
+Glen W. Ford For what? How many CR-V owner complain about problems.
Did you find any that had problems with vibrations?
+Glen W. Ford about vibration
I checked and you were right.Honda for 2015 was notorious for vibration. Now I have to continue my search.
honda infotainment system is the worst thing of this car !!!
A lot of plastic on door covers from inside. The US version is much better built. If honda is going to dump plastic on european customers, it can as well shut down the whole biz over here.
What height is the presenter lol
I know that looks are subjective but I find this an ugly car. The exterior seems to be a collection of angles and surfaces with no cohesive style other than perhaps Dali-esque. Along with the Civic, Hondas current design direction is quite bizarre and I was reminded last night while watching a program featuring the S2000, how good they once were. The interior of this CR-V looks cheap on the film and the excessive amount of shut lines and joins (presumably to allow manufacture of the complex shapes) contributes to that impression. Mazda successfully implemented a program of weight reduction in their designs and also came out with some cool looking designs - Honda needs to have a 'surface reduction' program to clean up their designs and come out with something simpler, cooler and better made in my opinion.
+Steve Mogg i find the style very fluid and cohesive. Like a sling shot everything was pulled back. Very nice for me.
+Monkey D. Luffy I am glad you like it, I love the Honda marque so it would be a shame if they alienated all buyers with their looks. Styling like this will always divide opinion I guess :o)
haha yes. Thomas did mention it is the top selling suv in the whole EARTH. So maybe more people like it then hate it!?? lol
+Monkey D. Luffy McDonald's is also the best selling hamburger on earth and Starbucks the best selling coffee...so what does this tell you about the esthetic judgments of most people?
I agree...one of the ugliest vehicles since the Pontiac Aztek...a shame really because all Hondas now have really bizarre design language.
I can only think that the Honda CRV is the most popular selling SUV world-wide because of the price.
In terms of looks, it is suffering from some sort of allergic reaction, as it has come out in hives; ugly lumps and bumps all over the place and a mish-mash of badly designed lines. The coupé chrome look to the C-pillar area, combined with the roof and rear-end looks childishly clumsy. As though Homer Simpson designed it.
The inside is no better. Cheap and tacky looking materials and the dashboard looks as though it was agreed upon by a committee of people with vastly differing concepts of what "style" really means (and all of them failing).
A basic, new 2016, VW Tiguan runs rings around this wretched-looking vehicle.
My hat is raised to you Thomas for managing to get through the review without laughing hysterically or just walking off in disgust.
And, as always Thomas, very professionally done! (Thumbs up).
+OldVillain appreciate your detailed feedback, thanks man!
facelift? really? Ugly as ever from any angle, AWD just a joke
