i have the 2023 exl model in that same color!! man it’s a fun vehicle to drive and very smooth 🔥🔥
Thanks for the comment! Glad you're enjoying your CR-V. It's one of our favorites!
At 15.32, the sales guy says the sound in Sport mode is “from the exhaust”. It’s actually fake sound piped through the speakers. However, it does accelerate faster in Sport mode compared to other modes.
yep they all do that. I don't know why? No one likes fake, including exhaust pipes.
We've had our 2024 Sport Touring for a few months now in Canyon River Blue. We love it. Realistically, mileage depends on how you drive and your environment like lots of hills. Getting about 33-35 miles per gallon in mixed driving in Econ mode. I like to put it in Sport Mode sometimes for fun. It's everything I could have hoped for.
So true about the mileage. I see too many complaints about pour gas mileage. It all depends on how your drive - how heavy your right foot is, the weather - rain, wind, snow, and temperature - use of AC, Heater, Defogger. Hills also play a part. I have an Insight hybrid rated at about 46mpg. In spring and summer, I can get 50 to 55 mpg. In fall and winter I can get about 44 to 48 mpg. This is in the Pacific Northwest.
@vindee5670 same, PNW just south of Seattle. When I head up highway 18 to I-5, that hill ruins my mileage. However, if I nurse it in Economy Mode, I've seen 39 MPG regularly. I still only fill up once a week, though, which is way better than our old 2019 HR-V. Same size gas tank even.
39 MPG is pretty darn good considering the size of the CR-V. I'm hoping the pick up a 2024 Sport later this year. Hopefully the market will be more favorable to the consumer by then and I can strike a deal. All my previous purchases have been based on "invoice value". Now I can't even find any mention of invoice value, though I haven't looked hard enough yet.
@vindee5670 we used our Costco membership. Gets you MSRP with no Delivery Fee basically. We bought service contract and extended warranty to. With tax and licensing $54K out the door. So about $12K over MSRP. You really have to be gentle with the accelerator to get that 39 and turn the heat down to like 74.
@@trollbot3728 Thanks! I'll look into the Costco program.
How do you get the "Data Sharing" disclaimer screen to stop popping up every time you start the vehicle. It's annoying! Great reviews, very hands-on and not over techy. Thanks!
Expert helpful review. Nice work !
Proper review!!! Getting one for my self next month.
Just got a white Touring. You won’t be disappointed. The ride feels like you’re gliding.
Same. This was by far the best video I've seen on it too.
Just got myself this car on 5/18 in the Canyon River Blue. It's definitely an upgrade from my 2021 EX-L I previously had! I highly recommend it if you already like the gas model CR-V.
I just picked up a 2024 Honda CR-V Sport in Canada. It’s non-hybrid but I’m extremely happy. My preference was to spend the extra money on the appearance package and aftermarket anti-theft devices versus getting the top trim.
Please let me know whats the best aftermarket anti theft devices? I got the touring, got a good demo deal, i love this car
Yes please
🔥🔥🔥 ! Question! Is there any option to not hear the the beeping when parking?
no
Does the 2024 CRV Hybrid, come with a cargo net and trunk cargo shade?
Overall good review but to be more accurate there is no spare tire in the hybrid due to the position of the battery. If it was to save weight all versions of the CRV for 2024 would have a tire inflation kit instead of a spare tire. Other reviewers have stated this in their reviews. One other thing the sound the car makes when backing up is absolutely annoying. Unfortunately, this is the case for every hybrid vehicle.
Makes sense other hybrids have spare tires.
It also does not have a CVT, it just the electric motor which is why they call it an eCVT.
Great video, I was under the misconception there was no overhead parking assist on this. Actually I really like how the backup works with the warning indicator lights. I also like the way the pedestrian warning works. With Toyota vehicals you hear the beep and you see the light turn on but you don’t know exactly where it is specifically it’s coming from. The C-RV shows very clearly where the person is at causing the light to appear. That is in the front or the back bravo! Not understanding how the 12 volt power works, what would plug into that, is that a cigarette lighter connect, confused at that. I’ve read some reviews where the reviewer said they had trouble getting there wireless charging to charge with 14 max iPhone saying it was intermittent sometimes worked sometimes didn’t. Can you comment on how efficient the wireless charging is at connecting to the phone? also, I didn’t see anything about spatial controls for the audio system. Is it possible to control the spacing of the audio sound moving it more to the back or the front or side depending on what you want to do. I also do not see anything about equalization control. I’m sure that it’s in there. Perhaps you could have a video focusing on how the Soundsystem works in the future for this vehicle. Also, I would like a video on comparing this vehicle to the RAV4. Although in my experience, I believe that this SUV wins, hands-down so far and what I have seen.
As a happy owner, I can answer a couple of your questions - yes there is a very flexible equalizer for audio. I have an IPhone 15 Max with a
clear Speck case and it always charges ok on the charging pad without slipping around.
The sound system is very decent but far from great. Also, the spacial audio is kinda useless. The SUV overall is way beyond impressive in my opinion however.
@@thev3432 I have a 2024 Sport Touring and the Bose spacial controls work very well to change the sound from front to back, all speakers, and option for "all around" type sound which is nice.
6:54 Only offered in the Sport Touring. All the others use the old method of USB-A, not using USB-C which provides better data connectivity and charging, if you connect for Apple or Android.
The reverse noise is super loud in the hybrid since Honda cheaped out and chose to meet the safety standard with a single speaker at the front of the vehicle instead of placing a separate speaker at the rear of the vehicle. To meet the decibel requirements at the rear, the speaker at the front has to SCREAM when in reverse. Thereby annoying everyone in the house, and for several houses surrounding your house, when you back out of the garage.
Question for the Touring owners. Is the Bose stereo worth the upgrade over the Sport L?
Get the touring.
It isn't just the stereo. You also get rain sensing wipers, hands free power lift gait, upgraded tires, and I thing remote start is also only on the touring. The interior has additional contrast with some areas of piano black which offsets all the gray and looks very nice. The difference in price is not that much and it is totally worth it.
@@KDastmalchi I really just want to know if the Bose sounds that much better
I thought it was a 22 speaker bose system, no?
Question: Mileage only on battery?
i'll let you know, i just bought mine yesterday. I have a 3-4 mile commute each way, hoping it stays on EV most of it.
@@stachowi it will not. Get a PHEV for that.
Now 2024
Have a White with Grey Interior. Stunning. BUT, wished it had 360 degree birdseye camera, vented seats and folding mirrors, tilt down right side mirror when in reverse... In Europe and Asia, CRV's can be 3 rows ! They also have the 360 degree and vented seats in Europe and Asia ! Also, my average MPG is 33 in econ mode for about 1000 miles. UGH!
I'm going to get a 2025 model when my current lease ends. I wonder if any of the above items you mention will be included in the USA version? I've looked online, but I guess it's too early to tell
I do you like the 360° view in the Toyota competition. But I like the on dash red/orange light warning on the backup and pedestrian on dash better on this. Toyota does not have it. The biggest thing that I wish this had is a bigger navigation screen 12.5 inches like the Prius has instead of the smaller size that it is now.
the grey looks very light? Is that so? Here in Texas, we hate black seats due to the heat. Honda definitely needs ventilated seats in their CRVs!
@@gosman949 I have the grey two toned interior on my 2024 Sport Touring and they are very nice. The lighter part in the middle of the seats is light, kind of like a beige/tan color, but they are not as white looking as in pictures and videos. We love ours!
@@KDastmalchi that would be the seat color I would want, but they are hard to find here in the DFW area.
Lots of great info but your expert needs to brush up on how the ecvt works compared to the cvt. Not that same
I hope the removal of fog lamps is worth the LED light system. Well with hybrid you need to buy a spare tire with rim. Sucks.
no panaromic sunroof...not good
I'd prefer no sunroof at all. Hardly anybody uses theirs here in the hot south. Too much heat and glare.
@@cgatito3528 what about nights...needed emmm
Honda crv
2024 CRV hybrid sport touring. Live in arizona, driving from cottonwood to prescott is a very long hill. There are 2 lanes for slow tractor trailers. I could not get the car to get past like 52-53 mph. If I pushed harder on the gas pedal the rpms shot up to over 7500 rpms It sounded like it was going to blow up. A fiat passed me like I was sitting still and tractor trailers were on my bumper flashing me and blowing their horns. This does not seem right. I am going to go to the dealer on monday and ask them. anyone else experience this kind of lack of acceleration? could the transmission be slipping
in closing American Honda says there is nothing wrong with the car, they know it is under powered. Seems they don't care if they are selling a death trap to unknowing consumers. DO NOT get this car if you live in the mountains
I haven't had that problem (just bought a 2025 Sport-L) but you're not the first person I've read mention that exact situation. Would love to hear more about it. Otherwise, I'm very impressed with the CRV Hybrid.
NO, NO, NO! This saleperson is wrong in saying the this hybrid has a CVT. It does not, and he should know that. The non-hybrid model uses a CVT, while the hybrid does not - it is always driven by the electric motor.
Its called e-cvt, but its not a cvt!
yes it is a CVT, but a very good one.
It is a CVT. I have this model, even the exterior but black interior. I’m loving it.
This RAV4 Looks great! 😮
Billy, the RAV4 is old technology.
@@gosman949
RAV4 #1. Topgun
Cannot wait to get out of my 2023 CR-V Lease. Disappointing car that is overpriced and lacks so many standard features. Very disheartening that Honda is only concerned about the money grab and not the customer. Worst customer service is at Honda after having to call about all the issues my CR-V has currently.
Justin, what has been your issues with the CR-V?
You can buyspare tire in dealer for 350 $
but where do you put the spare tire that will not take up your back space?
@@gosman949 Most of the time you don't really need a spare tire if driving around town and most flats can be fixed with a tire kit, though I'd have the type that has a plug too. If you drive in a more remote area or a longer road trip, it will fit nicely in the back and there is still plenty of room for suitcases, etc. Worst case scenario if you really, really need the space, a thule on top will do. If we take a road trip, we were thinking we could put a light weight partial board on top to make a flatter surface. I saw a picture where someone had made or bough a platform and the tire was underneath and everything else sat on top of the platform. Yeah, it would be nice to have dedicated place, but it isn't a deal breaker (at least not for us).
@@KDastmalchi drove a Lexus NX-350 this week that doesn't have a spare tire, but they deal with it by having run flat tires!
What are you going to do you the road is foggy and you don’t have a fog light and Moore important that that if your mother get flat on the road and does not have spear tire that is the so great that you can be stocking on the road and you can use all your usb charger when your telephone run out of charger to call for help for some one to bring youtire😂😂😂
lol no power mirrors no front facing camera no 360 camera Toyota has everything no Brainer
I drove both and decided on a Honda. Better driving experience and looks better too.
And the trims with all of those are considerably more expensive than the Honda Sport Touring. The Honda drives nicer. The RAV4 is a nice car and does look nice overall, but is getting a bit outdated at this point.
