- 2018 Honda CR-V EX-L with Continental TrueContact tires in 6 inches of freshly fallen snow in Ohio.
After research and a lot of thought, we decided to go with Continental TrueContact tires to achieve a balance between summer and wintertime performance. The ride comfort, sound levels and snow capabilities have been superb in nice weather, rainy conditions and in snow as well, including on our 2,000 ft sometimes snow-covered and occasionally somewhat icy limestone driveway with a moderate grade.
Definitely a combination of vehicle and tires worth considering, particularly for those that live off the beaten path.
I have the 2021 Honda CR-V AWD. They are great vehicles, comfy, reliable, durable, great handling, built solid and excellent in any type of weather. This video shows the truth of the CR-V AWD.
I drove to work at 5:20am for the first time in the snow. I work a hour away and I had no issues on the road/highway when it was snowing like crazy
CR-V life to the max..
The best Car ever
Yes,i think so too
The new crvs are great but nothing beats the old 1st gen and 2nd gen awd system.
I've grown to like the later 4th gen style and the 3rd gen has grown on me but 100% the crv for me is that 1st generation.
Man I love that body style and little car. Tried with 2 of em only to lose 7k in the process. So I'm looking at a 2015 for a daily driver but someday I'll get that 1st gen for off road lol.
Tylko 10 cm śniegu. Poradzi sobie prawie każdy samochód z napędem na przednie koła.
Thank God the new CRV works well! The previous-gen model had the worst AWD in history. Also what a beautiful place!
I used to have a 2004 and it was great in the snow. We went over a mountain pass in heavy snow with all seasons and drove right on past everyone else stopping to chain up. I don't know about the other generations, but the 2nd gen (and 1st from what I've seen) had a great AWD.
My 4th gen CR-V 2014 is a beast in snow drifts with summer tires…. about to get snows, idk why people always say the awd sucks on this model. 🤷♂️ never get stuck when everyone else is
@@Epirus2245 It has the worst AWD of all crossovers, it can't even pass a simple diagonal test. There was even a lawsuit against Honda. th-cam.com/video/8oyFhP_mGMw/w-d-xo.html
@@Epirus2245 If I turn TC off I can spin my 2014 around in a snowy parking lot like a rwd/4x4 vehicle. So I know that the rear wheels are doing plenty of work. Pretty good AWD system, never gotten stuck in Michigan winter. Some people claim the 4th gen AWD is useless and is basically a front wheel drive, I have to laugh because I can't remember the last time I was able to kick out the rear on my front wheel drive Ford Taurus, hehe. Only thing this gen can't do is severe hill climbs like the subaru forester
My moms 2008 worked great. Never once got stuck in the snow and she lives way out in the county in Wisconsin 🤷
probably driver error on your part
Great video, thanks been thinking about which SUV I'm going to get between this and the Subaru. I live in Florida and I don't need a Subaru here on a daily basis only need it for a few trips to the North Carolina ski areas in the winter.
Which one did you prefer?subaru &honda crv.What is your comment?thanks
Just got my baby iris shes beautiful 2023 crv
Is this CRV AWD or FWD? Thank you!!
Unstoppable Tripp!
Bye....I'm going to the store.
suprised CRV ran like Subaru....
No it didnt
Probably has winter tires.
Is this 2wd
no AWD
Handled that like a champ!!!
;-)
Just starting my car buying research for brand new car( i think)how is the difference in snow driving with crv 17,18 and 19 inch wheels?
Snow
Winter tires?
The Continental 'True Contract' is rated as an all season tire. I did a lot of research and debating due to wanting a tire that would provide a smooth, comfortable, safe and quiet ride in pleasant and wet weather - and additionally, with our 2,000 ft driveway that includes a moderate grade, a major concern was that we wanted tires that would provide good wintertime snow performance. The CRV and True Contract tires have exceeded our expectations and we are 100% satisfied.
While we debated about tires with a more aggressive tread, the potential noise factor was a concern, and an issue with pure winter tires can be the material composition which can limit tread life (as well as the hassle of seasonally changing tires). The True Contract has proven to provide excellent traction and is in the upper tier of tread life ratings.
The vehicle is driven daily and with the severity of the 2020-2021 winter season, the vehicle / tire combination received a legitimate real-world test by two different family drivers.
@@battleridge2975 I'm getting these tires for my 2015 Hyundai Sonata Sport. I think they will be a great fit for my vehicle.
@@battleridge2975 Interesting, I was sure you had winter tires but I was wrong.
I was going to ask if you had snow tires on. I had a 2012 CRV AWD with Cooper Discoverer SRX here in New York. Drove through everything no problem. Im looking into a 2019/2020 CRV AWD I'll probably throw the Cooper Discoverer SRX on it. Nice video.
How reliable has it been? I’m looking at getting one soon
The CRV has been great and we have over 89,000 miles on it with no problems. We follow the recommended maintenance schedule, and the only other thing we did was install a new set of tires when the original set became worn. The Continental True Contact tires have been great with outstanding winter, summer and wet weather performance and a quiet ride. When the time eventually comes, we will likely be looking at another CRV.
Any vid you’ll have to show the CRV going uphill and downhill in snow?
I have a FWD cr v. I hope it does okay in the snow because it snows a lot here... I have yet to see. Have all season tires
Probably be fine but yeah u should of gotten the awd if it snows alot.. only good thing about the fwd is better gas mileage but still not enough reason to pick it i feel
@@cmb9059 could I use tire chains?
@@chubbytony4565 I wouldn't.
I took my CR V out in the snow today. The back roads are horrible and I was slipping and sliding all over the place. At one point I had to make a turn and my front tires slid right into a snowbank, and I was having trouble backing up because my car is only FWD :(
Get winter tires, I have FWD, never had any issues in heavy snows here is Canada.
