    A lot I like about the CRV
    New styling. .dual cargo lamps
    things I dont like
    They dont offer (Honda vs Acura) dont offer electric folding outside mirrors
    They regressed wirh this model converting back to incandescent rear turn signal lamp
    Dont like incandescent fliip down mirror lights
    Dont like the SPORT doesn't have real dual exhaust. Only right side
    Other models do offer real dual exhausts.
    No fog lamps offered

    What is the point of the 360 view system on a non-off roading SUV? I can't think of anytime I would get in my car and pull up the camera to look around. I'd rather just turn my head and use my eyeballs.

    Bought this car in europe, costs bit more highest trim but has more stuff like full panoramic roof, vented seats first row, full digital display, remote engine activation (around 3-4 miles range), AWD and hybrid.
    Regarding fog lights not needed. Total 6 lights in front its enough for any fog. Also if they added fog lights then the front would be too much cluttered and would need redesign. I like the sleek front with lights. Only thing i hope they figure out how to make tail lights ALL led including turn signals but its not deal breaker. Regarding ride comfort, there is no match from other compact SUV's in that price list. In europe with a lot extras and highest trim its round 50-52k EUR but better equipped Tiguan or Volvo XC60 costs way more than that.
    Toyota Rav4 is ugly sadly latest gen and feel too cheap inside.

      If I am reading what people are commenting properly, models other than the hybrid have spares, the batteries for the hybrid replace the space taken by the spare. I'm saddened by that because the mileage for the hybrid is the best I have found. Given the distances between destinations where I live, mileage is a plus, but the lack of a spare is a great big negative. Also for it's class the port hole size sun roof is a major disappointment and given it doesn't even open all the way becomes a big detractor compared to other vehicles moon roofs.

    • @sabarinair123
      @sabarinair123 2 місяці тому +1

      Definitely the CRV Sport Touring… the RAV 4 hybrid suspension is so sensitive and makes for a bumpy ride as opposed to a much more polished ride quality on the CRV. Not to mention the overall interior quality of the CRV is more desirable and plush compared to RAV4. Also, I’ve test driven both and personally speaking the snow driving mode in the CRV works better for me and the vehicle seems to hug the road better and have better traction.

      Like yourself I'm in Canada, my friend who until recently was a life long lease car broker advocates the CRV Hybrid over the RAV4. In most part because it's newer tech and the RAV is a (proven but dated model) which is showing it's age even though popular. The Hybrid mileage is hard to beat and very appealing. I personally don't like the port hole size sun roof which other reviewers say doesn't open all the way and compared to moon roofs of other vehicles can make or break choice. Also the absence of a spare on the Hybrid given the distances in Canadian location, though people can opt to carry one by choice in the rear cargo area. I also compared the VW Tiguan and the CRV and would still choose the CRV. Though I understand interior noise is indicated a high DB in it's class. I also read reviewers say the rear view camera is grainy resolution.

    Just picked one up in Radiant Red. Lease with 67% residual on 10.000 mile per year lease. (66% residual on 15,000 miles per year). NEVER open the hatch under the rear floor (where battery is located). For mechanics only. You can easily break the fasteners.
    By increasing regenerative braking with the paddle shifters you are maximizing your gas mileage. Its a "game" to use as much regeneration as possible to save gas. (Of course engaging the regenerative braking slows you down abruptly and may perturb the driver behind you.
    Don't sell satellite navigation short. When you are in area with low or no cell tower coverage, satellite navigation still works (if this model had it - which it doesn't)

    The remote start is NOT INCLUDED. MY friend just bought the sport touring edition yesterday and come to find out the remote start is ONLY available with the Honda Link membership which is 3 moth trial and then $10/month or $110/year. Yes, you get other features but I'm thinking about remote start for winter time and over 10 years of ownership it makes more sense to just get a separate remote starter for warming the vehicle. $300 vs $1,100 over 10 years of ownership.
