True to Honda form, what sets this CR-V apart from the CUV rabble is attention to powertrain engineering. There's good poke from 2.4-liter four, with steady torque as you wind up through the rev range. The engine and the transmission run as a refined precision unit, grabbing downshifts to provide ample revs when the call comes for more power. That said, I'd recommend not running in Eco mode (note the little green leaf on the instrument panel) if you need any kind of responsiveness--the Eco setting noticeably dulls power. Simply flip off the fuel-saving mode for most commuter driving, and then punch it back on for the steady-driving miles.
I found the vehicle handsome enough inside and out, with easy functionality built in to the driver controls and the center stack. There's every manner of hookup for music players in the center console. And I like that the center stack provides the right mix of touch screen and solid buttons to control various functions. Not too busy, not too obtuse. Seat comfort is also a strong point.
Because of the similar features, size, similar five-speed automatic and ride height, I found myself mentally comparing the CR-V to the Subaru Outback. Both are right-sized, mechanically functional and focused all-wheel-drive people and gear haulers. The Subie was similarly equipped for comfort and convenience, but its powertrain upgrade to a flat-six put the Outback at a $6,000 price differential versus this CR-V. A four-cylinder Outback costs roughly the same, but unless you buy the six-speed manual you'll be saddled with a CVT. You get slightly more cargo room and a quieter cabin in the CR-V, but a smoother ride, better handling and more power from the Outback. Both are quite good. Tough call.
A Honda CR-V Spoiler adds a dynamic appeal to this sporty crossover’s image. Most in its class are too bullish or blasé to really feel the effect an aftermarket spoiler would make, yet another edge that sets the CR-V apart.
