Honda CR-V is a C-class crossover developed in Japan. It is a five-door SUV with a five-seater interior, produced since 1995. The car is the closest competitor to the Toyota RAV-4, Volkswagen Tiguan, Mazda CX-5, Mitsubishi Outlander, Chevrolet Captiva, Renault Koleos and other compact crossovers. The model occupies a place between the HR-V mini-crossover and the full-size Pilot. The Honda CR-V premiered in 1995. This is the first representative of the SUV class in Honda history. Since 1996, the car has been sold on the North American market - it was presented that same year at the Chicago Auto Show.
The second generation model debuted in 2002. The car has become larger and heavier compared to its predecessor. Despite this, it used a stretched platform from the Civic compact hatchback. In North America, the second CR-V was available with a 160-horsepower gasoline engine with a torque of 220 N/m.

The third generation Honda CR-V was introduced in 2007. The car was produced until 2011. The crossover of the same name has acquired a sportier and more streamlined design due to a lower and wider body. The car became shorter than its predecessor and was perceived as more compact. It should be noted that the 2007 Honda CR-V was equipped with a 2.4-liter engine borrowed from the Honda Accord and Honda Element. The engine power was 166 horsepower. Sales of the CR-V in the USA started with this internal combustion engine. The European version received more economical internal combustion engines - a gasoline internal combustion engine 2.0, as well as a 2.2-liter diesel engine.
In 2011, the fourth generation Honda CR-V crossover debuted. The version for the American market received an i-VTEC engine with a power of 185 hp. With. (2.4 l). The car was offered with the new intelligent all-wheel drive Real Time All Whell Drive.
The fifth generation model was presented to the public in 2016 in Detroit. The car received a new global platform, which is used in the tenth generation Honda Civic hatchback. The fifth CR-V in the United States is offered with a 2.4-liter internal combustion engine producing 188 hp. With. as well as a 1.5 turbo engine with 193 hp. With. In Russia, the car went on sale in mid-2017 with 2.0 and 2.4 liter engines. The power of the first internal combustion engine is 150 hp. With.
The European version of the fourth-generation Honda CR-V crossover was officially presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, but the name included the Concept prefix. Maybe that’s why visitors to the exhibition were only able to evaluate the external design of the new Honda SRV 2013; there was no opportunity to get inside and evaluate the interior.
Traditionally, European versions of almost all cars have richer interior content, and it seems that the Japanese did not have time to prepare a high-quality interior for the exhibition. The “American” Honda CR-V 2WD in a new guise has been in full swing on the North American market since the fall of 2011 at a price starting from $22,495.
A little history of the Honda CRV crossover. The first generation CR-V appeared in 1995, it was replaced by the second generation in 2002, the third generation Honda CR-V was released in 2007. The crossover of all three generations enjoyed strong and stable demand on both sides of the ocean, and over seventeen years of production, Honda sold more than 5 million SR-Vs.
Design
Let's evaluate the appearance of the new Honda CR-V 4 for Europe with the gaze of the buyer. I would like to say right away that the differences from the American version are minimal - the turn signals in the headlights are white and that’s it (globalization, however).
The front part of the crossover is decorated with slanted and narrowed headlights with complex technical content, including fashionable and necessary daytime running lights (LED lamps). Further, the review of the Honda SRV 4 is highlighted by a false radiator grille with three horizontal slats, which rests on an insert protruding forward. The front bumper has become more massive and received powerful crossover protection in the form of an overlay, stylized as an aerodynamic lip. The fog lights are stylishly located on mesh inserts along the edges of the bumper. Plastic protection encircles the entire body of the crossover and carefully protects the front and rear bumpers, the edges of the wheel arches, sills and the lower edges of the doors.
From the photo of the 2013 Honda CR-V, we can say that the profile of the crossover looks more solid and stricter compared to its predecessor, thanks to the rapidly ascending window sill line and chrome edging of the window frames. Next, the review reveals the sides of the body, which have become more magnificent and expressive, the wheel arches have acquired a perfectly circular shape and increased in size.
Looking at the photo of the fourth generation Honda CRV, showing the rear of the Japanese crossover, the eye stops at the huge, almost vertical tailgate with miniature glass. The chopped shades of the side lamps (LED lamps) are placed high on the ends of the powerful roof pillars and follow their curve (stylistically reminiscent of the rear lighting equipment of the latest generation Toyota LC Prado). The new Honda CR-V looks brutal, but at the same time exciting and sporty. The new product has become a little shorter - by 44 mm and lower by 25 mm, with the same wheelbase dimensions.
- External dimensions dimensions Honda CR-V 2013 model year is: length - 4530 mm, width - 1820 mm, height - 1654 mm, wheelbase - 2620 mm, ground clearance ( clearance) - 185 mm.
- It is possible to install tires on iron wheels 215/70 R16 or light alloy wheels 225/65R17, 225/60R18; enlarged arches will also accept R19 wheels.
Interior
The interior of the new 2013 Honda CR-V welcomes its five passengers with new, higher quality finishing materials and improved sound and noise insulation. The front dashboard has become more refined in shape, the center console with a boss to accommodate the gearbox control “handle” has decreased in size.
In the first row, space has increased in all directions; comfortable heated seats (optional driver's seat with electric drive) are installed 10 mm lower. The multifunction steering wheel is the optimal size for active control, the optitronic instrument panel is informative and readable in any lighting. The center console is crowned with a color screen of the on-board computer; below is a 5-inch monitor for the multimedia system (music, telephone, navigator, rear view camera), and below it is the climate control system.
In the second row, the interior of the Honda SRV 4 allows three adult passengers to comfortably accommodate, thanks to the seats installed 38 mm lower (there is more space above the heads of the passengers) and the minimum height of the transmission tunnel, even in the all-wheel drive version. The rear seats have an electric folding drive; after pressing the button after 15 seconds, the process of transforming the interior is completed. With a five-seat configuration trunk The Honda CR-V 4 is capable of holding 569 liters (before the curtain), folding the second row we get 1669 liters of usable volume. A nice bonus is that the length of the loading area has increased by 140 mm compared to the previous generation CR-V to 1570 mm and the loading height has decreased by 30 mm.
To fill it with comfort functions and electronic assistants, the 4th generation Honda CRV boasts dual-zone climate control, electric driver's seat, heated mirrors and front seats, telescopic steering column adjustment, advanced music CD MP3 AUX USB DVD, adaptive cruise control, tracking system lane, leather interior and much more.
Technical characteristics overview
For the European version, the technical specifications of the Honda SR-V 2013 model year include engines three options:
- A pair of diesel engines: 2.2 i-DTEC (150 hp) and the latest 1.6 i-DTEC (120 hp),
- as well as petrol 2.0 i-VTEC (150 hp).
Perhaps the petrol 2.4 DOHC i-VTEC (166 hp), familiar from the previous generation of the crossover, but modernized with increased power, will also be available for Russian and Ukrainian buyers. The engines will be equipped with a start-stop system, and the gearboxes will be 6 manual gearboxes or 5 automatic gearboxes. The crossovers will have 2WD front-wheel drive; for an additional fee, an AWD all-wheel drive system with advanced control (Real Time All-Wheel-Drive), which sends torque to all four wheels when starting from a standstill.
Road test Honda SRV 4 with all-wheel drive shows that after making sure that there is a hard surface under the front wheels, the electronics turns off the drive of the rear wheels and turns it on only when the wheels of the front axle slip. The suspension of all wheels is independent, MacPherson struts at the front, multi-link double wishbones at the rear, electric power steering with electronic control. Disc brakes with ABC and EBD, Brake Assist, trailer stabilization system (TSA), exchange rate stability system (VSA) Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) is a system capable of warning about a collision and stopping the car independently.
The start of sales of the new 2013 Honda CRV in Europe, of course, and in Russia and the CIS countries, is scheduled for early autumn 2012. From trusted sources it became known that the 4th generation Honda CR-V crossover with front-wheel drive 2WD will be officially supplied to Russia and Ukraine. Single drive version
The 2013 Honda CRV will be significantly cheaper than the all-wheel drive version.
The price for the new generation Honda CRV starts at 1,149 thousand rubles for an all-wheel drive crossover with a 150-horsepower gasoline engine and 6 manual gearboxes in the initial Elegance version (8 airbags, climate control, heated front seats and electric mirrors, ABS with ESP, multimedia system), surcharge for 5 automatic transmissions - 70 thousand rubles. A richly “packaged” Honda CRV in the Lifestyle configuration will cost 1,349 thousand rubles.
New crossover Honda SRV 2018 model year is definitely a great car. In our country, the fate of the Honda CR-V is very changeable and somewhat reminiscent of a roller coaster. To date, the level of sales is at a fairly low level and the point is not that the car is losing to its competitors in the technical department.
The main players in this niche have long organized the assembly of their models in Russia and offer more affordable prices. And the Japanese from Honda have to transport their cars from the UK, where cheap production is basically impossible.
The fifth generation of the CR-V crossover has increased slightly in size. The length of the body has increased by 3 centimeters, the wheelbase has added about 4 centimeters. The Japanese crossover is still the standard for quality, reliability and style. The model is especially appreciated in the USA, where 4 million cars of different generations have been sold in 20 years!
2018 CR-V design still fascinates. The new front end architecture is a unified whole. Optics, radiator grille, bumper, hood - all this looks quite organic. Especially for the new generation, SRV developed original alloy wheels that emphasize the appearance of the car. See photos of the new generation Honda CR-V below.

Japanese crossover interior is close to the premium segment. In terms of the quality of materials, the interior is not inferior to more expensive cars of this class. We add to this the latest multimedia system with a 7-inch monitor, plus a built-in navigation system developed jointly with Garmin. The most interesting thing is that visually the multimedia screen, thanks to the decorative glass on top, looks larger than it actually is. This is such a design find for the interior. The 5-seater interior can be made in either dark or light colors.

The trunk holds 522 liters if you use the VDA methodology for calculation. There are many options for transforming the rear seats, which allows you to expand cargo space. The rear seat folds down to form a completely flat platform with the trunk floor.

Price and configuration of Honda SRV 2018
The car was assembled in the UK for quite a long time, but now the plant has retrained to assemble Honda Civic. Therefore, cars created for the American market are now supplied to the Russian market from the Honda plant in Canada. Quite expensive configurations with 4x4 drive are being brought to Russia. Therefore, the manufacturer’s pricing policy does not allow us to compete with the main market players. Hence the low demand for the model. See below for current prices for 2018.

More trunk space
The luggage compartment dimensions have increased and now measure 963 mm (with the rear seats folded down), and with the seats folded the boot dimensions are 1433 mm (full length). Standard boot capacity (with seats not folded) is 556 liters (VDA) and rises to 955 liters with seats fully folded (measured at window level).
The boot width is 1,402mm (1,064mm between the wheel arches), so the under-floor boot can easily fit a stroller or a bag of golf clubs. At the same time, you can place other things on the shelf. When the rear seats are folded down completely, the luggage compartment can accommodate four large suitcases (vertically). In this case, the luggage compartment can easily accommodate two mountain bikes (with 26-inch wheels), from which you don’t even need to remove the front wheels. This best demonstrates the spacious luggage compartment of the new CR-V.
Additional security is provided with a double curtain. The rear curtain is one-piece, but the front one opens and is divided into three sections, like the rear seatback. Each section of the curtain is attached to the corresponding headrest.
