Engines

CR-V VTi models use a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine shared with the smaller ZR-V and Civic.

In the CR-V, the four-cylinder turbocharged engine generates 140kW (6000rpm) and 240Nm (1700-5000rpm).

Drive is sent to the front wheels as standard via a continuously-variable transmission (CVT), with on-demand all-wheel drive (AWD) available as a cost option for the VTi L and as standard for the high-grade VTi LX.

The single-spec e:HEV RS features a 2.0-litre petrol-electric hybrid system comprising of a four-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine teamed with two electric motors.

System outputs are rated at 135kW (5000-8000rpm) and 335Nm (0-2000rpm) – 20Nm more than the Civic e:HEV and ZR-V e:HEV.

CR-V VTi L AWD: 169g/km
CR-V VTi L7: 167g/km
CR-V VTi LX AWD: 169g/km
CR-V e:HEV RS: 125g/km

All CR-V variants are homologated to Euro 6b emissions standards, and are rated to run on regular 91 RON unleaded. The fuel tank also quotes 57 litres in capacity across the range.

Dimensions

The new CR-V is 4704 long, 1866mm wide, 1681mm tall, and rides on a 2701mm wheelbase, meaning it’s 69mm longer, 10mm wider, 2mm taller, and has a 41mm longer wheelbase than the outgoing model.

Boot space is 581-589L (VDA) with five seats in use, and 1457-1671L (VDA) measured to the roof depending on variant. Seven-seat models quote 150L behind the third row of seating.

Note: The original dimensions quoted in this article were based on overseas specifications. Australian dimensions have been confirmed and added to this article.

By comparison, the ZR-V measures 4567mm long, 1839mm wide and 1621mm tall, on a 2654mm wheelbase.

That puts the CR-V at the larger end of the mid-sized SUV segment among models like the Mitsubishi Outlander and Nissan X-Trail, which also offer an available third row of seating, while the recently introduced ZR-V is at the smaller end with other two-row models like the Mazda CX-5.

Kerb weight is between 1613kg-1771kg depending on variant; meanwhile braked towing capacity is up to 1500kg for petrol five-seat models, 1000kg for petrol seven-seat models, and 750kg for the e:HEV hybrid.

Servicing and Warranty

Honda Australia covers its range with a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.

Honda provides an additional six-year rust protection warranty, and an eight-year high-voltage battery warranty for the e:HEV.

There’s also premium roadside assist for the same period, as well as five years of capped-price servicing.

Honda is currently capping scheduled maintenance at $199 per visit for the first five scheduled services for new models. Intervals are 12 months or 10,000 kilometres – whichever comes first.

Further, Honda will provide complimentary satellite navigation map updates for five years.
