2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid - Watch Before You Buy!

- We reviewed the 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid to find out of Honda's winning formula continues when they add electricfication to the mix.
The Hybrid powerplant is new to the CR-V for 2020. It has a very clever dual electric motor setup which works in concert with a 2.0L Atkinson cycle engine and battery in the rear. Combined it provides 212hp and about 34mpg as tested with our heavy right foot.
The rear seating area is absolutely massive and there is more than ample cargo space in the back. I love that it drives like a car and not a big SUV. That's partly due to the relatively light weight of just over 3,700lbs but also because of the excellent chassis dynamics and steering feel.
The price as tested of this Touring model was $37,070 including destination charges.

I just bought CR-V Touring and I love it...Nice to drive...
Have just ordered one. This was a good chance to gain some more information on the adaptive cruise control and the other safety features you mention. Thank you.
hi, Chris. can you give us information about the mpg efficiency? thnx in advance
Hmm, nice to see the arrows guy from avengers has a side hustle. Nice review 👍
No spare is a deal breaker in Australia.
We got an exactly identical (to this) model just last week- was the last hybrid on the local dealer’s lot, and I’ve grown pretty fond of it already, having lost my previous ‘95 Honda Passport to a hydroplaning accident
I'm a big fan of the honda sensing during heavy bumper to bumper traffic. Its great to set it and just let it crawl along and stop for you. Its Okay in normal conditions but its lacking at high speed. I enjoy it a ton.
Great review of lovely car
Thank you! 👍
Nice car !
Probably I will order it next year✌️
Good choice!
I have the metallic grey 2020 hybrid crv touring i love it!!!!!!
It's a really great vehicle. Super versatile.
Handa is the best hybrid automobiles. Best of luck.
I really liked the CR-V
Please Kick to the sensor no side to side motions Thank You!
👉@4:30👈
Chillaxin' like a boss😎
You totally missed the air compressor and tire repair kit under the useless box where the spare would have been
Best car! 👍🏻
I very much enjoyed it!
I wonder if the gas engine is a GDI engine, I wish they'd have found a way to give you a spare tire.
Hello Everyone - I bought Honda CR-V hybrid 2021 …one thing I noticed when I start the car for first few seconds or half a minute I hear a ratlling or a different sound and it disappears when car crossed around 20 mph …and sound never comes back again and drive becomes seamless…just wanted to check if anyone else had that kind of experience …I think it might happen because of battery to gas transfer but not sure ..appreciate if any one could answer …i was thinking to bring this up with Dealership next week during my first oil change …
Thanks for the acceleration demo; It may not use a conventional CVT, but still, I don't think I could tolerate that eCVT-caused, loud droning engine sound. I prefer engine pitch and volume to increase with vehicle speed.
Doesn't use any transmission. It's direct drive
The hybrid badging is subtle but that is a bad thing, imo. First responders in a crash situation need to know your vehicle is electrified. Rescue efforts can be delayed until the hybrid battery is disabled.
Great job and clear language. But you didn’t talk about the noise cancellation system inside the car.
Thanks for the idea. I tried to cover a lot, but it’s hard to cover every possible feature. What would you want me to cover in future Honda reviews?
RevMatchTV in addition for the noise cancelation feature I would like to know how sturdy is the cr-v on the road as well as the fuel consumption ration. Also please let me know if u have done any comparative episode between the crv and any another car.
This is the only video i did with the CR-V. I got about 32 mpg with aggressive driving. I gave my driving impressions in the video.معتز
I used to sell Toyota’s and we had a few used Hondas. Honda has the most seamless transition with the hybrid system and is rather remarkable compared to Toyota and Kia. They are no frills appliance like vehicles that just work with out drawing too much attention.
It's pretty seamless and it's a pretty nice SUV if that's your need.
at the 10:02 mark you talked about another link to the modes of the fuel/hybrid economy where is that link I don't see it in the links below at all, am I missing it somewhere ?
I never made the video. Thanks for the reminder! I'll get on it.
Here's a brief description; but I probably do it in a different order than others.
Most of the time, the hybrid CR-V is an electric vehicle. What that means is that only the 181 HP electric traction motor is driving the wheels. But some people will confuse "electric vehicle" with "battery electric vehicle." The difference is that a BEV gets all of its electricity from a battery, while this CR-V gets most of its from a gas-engine driven generator. The rest of the time, a clutch engages and the engine is driving the wheels directly (but the traction motor is still engaged)
The advantage of this system is that the engine's power does not have to match the needs of the car at the time. The disadvantage is that there are losses in the conversion of mechanical energy to electricity and back again.
The "holy grail" of engine design is to achieve 40% efficiency. The engine in the CR-V can accomplish that as long as it is generating between about 22 and 55 horsepower. It can do this most of the time by using its three modes:
1) Hybrid Drive. The engine is generating somewhere between 22 and 55 HP, and driving only a generator. Its rpms are determined only by where in this power range is closest to the car's needs. The "Power Control Unit" sends as much power to the electric motor as the car needs. If this is less than what the generator produces, the excess charges the battery. If it is more, the battery supplies it.
2) Engine Drive. The clutch engages, so the engine is driving the wheels. This avoids the conversion losses, but rpms are determined by the car's speed. The 181 HP traction motor can add or subtract power in the same way as the PCU did in Hybrid Drive. (This usually at speeds between about 40 mph and 75 mph, with low acceleration.)
3) EV drive. The engine is turned off, and only the battery powers the traction motor. This uses up the energy saved in Hybrid and Engine Drive. But unlike other hybrids, this CR-V can do this at any speed.
Nice car I got my crv Ex-L hybrid 2022 model just 5 days ago. Smooth ride. Just FYI wooden decorative is not real wood. Also EX-L hybrid don’t have Wood decorative near cup holders, also no wireless charger in EX-L. Wireless charger, parking sensors, navigation, leg lift gate only in touring model.
Hey Himanshu quick check even I bought a new EXL few months back the hybrid one …do you see any obnoxious sound at slow speed inside cabin and it goes away after few seconds and never comes again until we again turn off and start the vehicle
@@abhishekjhamb6689 did you drive on brake hold mode and when speed 0 after you start drive? My car don’t have noise but brake hold mode create some noise rear of car. That’s I noticed. Rest smooth drive.
Thanks will check that ✌️
@@abhishekjhamb6689 also ask Honda to check fuel pump if extremely noise. My brake hold mode release make noise some but it’s suddenly stopped. Other could be fuel pump when you stop / off engine.
Thanks Himanshu planning to go next mid week ..will keep you posted ..thank you again
I like that center console storage, other than that, it's pretty "meh" for me. Sounds like it has a CVT based on that 0-60 run.
It makes CVT-style engine sounds at full throttle, but it's fairly quiet at part-throttle.
@@revmatchtv what is CVT style ?
@@rabfallon4507 the engine revs like cars with CVT transmissions
Can you tell the real figures about MPG in tne city. I saw many review, but they are all contradictory.
Thanks ahead.
I didn’t drive it exclusively in the city. I did a mixed route of city, freeway, mountains and lots of acceleration. I’d defer to other sources for those kind of numbers.
I am hybrid, hear me roar, in numbers too big to ignore...! RIP, Helen Reddy! Anyhow, I test drove a CR-V hybrid a couple of weeks ago. The ROAR of the engine during brisk acceleration was really disconcerting. Plus it really does not quite have the brisk acceleration of non-hybrid cars. Thx but no thx.
I noticed these CRV vehicles making much noise on highways , can you add it to your list while reviewing CRV or Honda cars .
The engine revs a lot under acceleration. I'm reviewing the RAV4 Prime shortly
@@revmatchtv The engine revs a lot as it's direct drive . Think of a single speed bicycle, you have to put in more power to go faster as there's no gears
@@rabfallon4507 yup
Just quick question.. Those Headlights are LED? I know fog lights are!
The Touring model gets LED headlights.
4:30 min. Hello, and what about the use on the rear seats of the seat belt, which will be directed for people with a height of 165-172cm over the neck !! Imagine a safety maneuver (such as a collision with a wild boar), you manage to avert the collision, but the passenger has a seat belt cut to the neck !! Why didn't the structural engineers invent it the same way as in the front seats !!!
does it have spare tire ???
No. The battery takes up that space. You get an inflation kit instead.
@@revmatchtv Not having a spare tire is significant! For me, it's a deal breaker because I don't want to be worrying about a flat tire when I'm on a road trip. You did a great review but really missed out by not mentioning what is a very unusual feature of this car.
nah
You opened the hatch back with your foot , can anyone do that ?
It's about 50/50 at best on ANY vehicle. I got lucky that day! I have a RAV4 Prime right now and I got it work once out of many tries.
@@revmatchtv My concern is theft .
@@dereksmith5019 You need you key in your pocket for it to work.
Wine color and orange, do not a good color combination make!!!
Msrp
I bought a 2022 crv hybrid and when I get home and start looking around just find out that DO NOT COME WITH SPARE TIRE ( are you serious Honda ? ) . Unbelievable, we are paying more for the vehicles and they are coming with less parts …… ohhhh lord
It's not uncommon with hybrid vehicles. The battery is where the spare usually is. Hope you're still enjoying it!
1.5 Turbo has the same 0-60 MPH i have measured it around 8.8 seconds
It's a little quicker than I expected it to be. Quite decent for a minivan that gets solid MPG.
probly，but definitly much faster 0-40 and responsive from a full stop.
Hybird 😄
Indeed!
Why you car reviewers never tell the bad stuff Honda tells you battery warranty is voided if the interior of the car reaches 150 f
Manufacturers lend us the car for only a week normally. We're not going to uncover any unusual warranty things in a week of driving it.
Great Review but the front looks horrendous 😏
They changed it up for 2020 and thanks =)
honda CuRVe xD
Indeed! You're first! Here's a cookie 🍪
you're second, therefore british man will give you a fake cookie : 🍘
PLK 😂😂😂
You can't pass anyone
The awd on the cr-v is pure garbage. It is technically a FWD with a prop shaft adapter lol
It's not positioned as an off road vehicle. Owners say they do well in the snow. What exactly are you looking for in a vehicle of this class?
Mpg on road is almost 29mpg........huge scam!
32mpg if you stay on ECO. But that's still down on Hondas figures
Started out getting 40.8 , then 42, then 46 mpg after breaking in. My overall average is now around 44 mpg. Hyper-miling and learning how to use the paddle shifters have worked wonders. Staying at and slightly below speed limits also helps. Use for round town driving with very limited highway driving. Great buy. If you do mainly highway driving get a regular old CRV.
I have a 2022 CR-V Hybrid and I am averaging a solid 40-42 mpg of mixed driving (approx. 80% city). If I drive mostly highway miles I still average between 34-36 mpg.
