I don't know about the xpower, but Honda's e:HEV hybrids are primarily serial hybrids. The engine drives only a generator, and it powers the 181 HP traction motor. In motorway cruising, a clutch does close to make it a parallel hybrid, but that is only for low power situations. See ua-cam.com/video/CHVI8r0nlk4/v-deo.html . The RAV4 is a parallel-serial hybrid, where one motor-generator acts as a motor in parallel mode, and one acts as a generator to supply it with electricity. The balance between the two is what regulates rpm. BTW, the European power figures a deceptive. In a petrol-only car, the power is measured before some is used for peripherals and subjected to transmission losses. Other hybrids try to estimate that. In this one, the 181 bhp figure is the motor only; that is, after peripherals and transmission losses. In the US, it is rated at 204 hp using the same estimation other hybrids use.
I don't change cars often but when I am considering doing so, as I am now, watching "silly" reviews is a turn off. Spending this much money is a serious matter. I think I prefer the Honda ZR-V hybrid. More torque and a 360 camera. By the way, in my country, Australia, we pronounce the Z as zed, not zee. I rate this review as RS, the same designation as the car you are reviewing but a different meaning.

Guys I can’t keep up with all the fake spam accounts - WE ARE NOT DOING A GIVEAWAY AND DONT CONTACT ANYONE ❤❤
Omitting 360 degree camera is unforgivable for top of the range model . Because I use mine all the time especially when parking it’s very convenient.
Exactly my thoughts. They made everything except this. Why
No 360 camera, no spare tire, no ventilated seats etc...even on top touring.
Holy crap that looks good
"RS" in Honda terms is actually the comfort line. Honda defines it as "Road Sailing". The sport line getst the "Type R" badge.

$60,000 you're dreaming ....
Tell what cars are a lot cheaper?
@@kdegraa Havel hybrid ,MG phev which shits all over the Honda and it's a proper hybrid (phev)
Actually pretty good price considering its size, equipment, hybrid. $AUD is junk not car makers fault for raising prices
The same segment of RAV4 Edge
And only FWD
You guys should make a rap song
Yeah 😂
which is your pick Nissan X-trail or the Honda CRV
Best looking CRV since the gen 2.
9:29 cool feature but my 2011 toyota kluger also has that
You guys are killing it
Matt Watson is in trouble
He doesnt have a Jacob
“Begging for sex” the audio track in the instrument cluster😂… Homage to Honda drivers!😝
What changes does it have with respect to the 2023 version?
The 1.5 turbo ZRV would take this down through the twistys though all while saving you close to 20 grand.
Love this car
"Beg for Sex" on the radio. I really need a carsauce OF.
Are you related to toadfish?
Hey Matt, the Rav 4 has the eFour over the CRV. I'd stick with Toyota - better bang for $$ in my mind.
Is it elevate in india
Are you guys going to review the new Chery Tiggo 7 Pro?
I can let you know if you have any questions
😂😂😂 I love this guys reviews so funny 😅
Shame hybrid only in top spec. Nice car though
No spare... goo kit lmao, no 360 camera, no AWD... RAV4 still top
why do these reviewers always review top of the range that very few can afford - I just5 skip over these top of the range reviews
Bring back Tom.
Silly reviewer
You're seriously comparing a new CRV to a RAV4 platform that's been out since 2019? 😂
Surely a paid promo. The way guys shouted on 0 to 100, i thought it would least hit low 7s.. But its on 8s lol..
I also expected the same that it gives them 6.5s
Do you have an Onlyfans account with Jacob?
You want to see them tickling each other's pickles?
Tf
Can get a bmw x1 for that sort of money
My mates x1 was basically a write off after five years of normal family usage.
Yeah but it's a bmw
Yeah but a Honda is probably good for twenty years while a BMW is worthless after ten years.
@@kdegraa five if you're getting an x1 lol
@@Ericthefiloso was there any major issues with the x1?
$60K... no thanks Honda. Plus there are no dealers, just a handful of Honda Centres that are located in out of the way places.
That's very under powered and overpriced IMO.
You haven't driven, or purchased, one.
your attempt to be funny is very annoying and ruins the video

Camera is worse than a 15 year old car😂
The new hondas are just super overpriced
An unprofessional presentation. Rather weak. I wouldn't buy from this presenter.
