It seems like Honda is starting to do what Ford did a while back with basically using the entire dashboard panelling and sharing it between more and more models, like how Ford used the Focus interior for the most part in the Escape and Transit, the new CR-V seems to be using the entire dashboard from the Civic. It's not a bad cost-saving measure tbh, no real compromises with it
Luckily Honda won’t be sharing the dogshit dual clutch transmission of the focus or the garbage coolant drinking ecoboost engines of the escapes/fusions with the rest of its lineup 😉
Chris, I heartily agree with your assertion 2:05 that "Honda seems to design their cars from the inside out" with generous passenger space being the result. Whether you are 5'3" or 6'3" you ought to be able to fit comfortably in a mainstream, family CUV. I really hope someone at Toyota is taking notes because a second generation of terribly cramped TNGA interiors would be intolerable. 🤨
I drive an f01 seven series right now and everyone is like "now this car fits you" because i am a larger individual little they know that cabin space is barely if any larger than a 3 series...on the other hand i drove a civic a couple years ago and it was spacious AF.
Inflation, supply chain problems, raw material costs, maximizing shareholder gains... it's really adding up these days on everything from groceries to cars and houses.

Yr right, it looks German not just outside but even inside, the dash design reminds me of an Audi A4. I didn’t like the design at first mainly cause of the interior but it’s grown on me and I actually do like it now, but I’m not for the whole “same interior on every car” thing.
I have a 2022 Civic Si which was one of the first vehicles with this interior. This interior is a massive improvement over the mess of the previous generations, it looks very nice and practical. I think it’s smart to spend the R&D to get it right once and then use it everywhere than to try making different weird interiors like Toyota does. I hate the rav4’s interior, for example. It’s a mess.
Good Review. Keep up the good work. The only one thing I can tell you is, yea it looks like a BMW in the back but, this Honda will last longer than a BMW....just being very honest...
I've always seen BMW-like design ques in Hondas. With Jacob of TheStraightpipes mentioning it has a Germanic ride quality, I suspect Honda benchmarked BMW. It has everything but the performance of a BMW.
This car is disappointing, no cooled seats, no panoramic sunroof, despite it being pricier than a similary equipped Tuscon and Sportage? Honda dropped the ball in my honest opinion. Precisely why I avoided waiting on this and went for a CX-50
2:05 I remember Honda here in Australia actually used the term ‘smaller on the outside, bigger on the inside’ as the tagline for the 4th gen CR-V back when it launched in all their TV commercials and advertising
Both of us highlighted the same idea in our comments. I hope Toyota steals the tagline and the design philosophy. The last CR-V was already more accommodating than the RAV4 and Honda's lead has grown.
You see bland, I see clean. One is bad, one is good, but we're both looking at the same evolution of design. The human brain's perception of beauty and styling is really complicated... but I think this car handles the modern fad of "trendy minimalism" pretty well, which is a great way to market to the CR-V demographic. It's definitely risk-averse, but this thing is gonna SELL, and sell well across a wide swath of buyers because it doesn't piss anyone off with risker, not "on-trend" design cues
Sad that Honda is limiting rear seat USB-C ports for top of the line Sport Touring...would have expected in the EX-L. A game-changer for long car rides with kids, and a huge benefit in my current '18 CR-V EX.

One thing I really hate about the CRV is the terrible road noise it generates, no matter what tires you use. There simply seems to be no padding at all. In my 2018 CRV, while I was travelling down the 202, which for majority is a cement road, the decibel meter generated a whooping 85 db at 75 miles/hour with radio off. This is "tinnitus" causing sound level if exposed to prolong periods. Even in this video, the road noise seems to be very apparent. So it seems like Honda did not bother to add some soundproofing material to the car.
Same issue with my 2021 CRV. And since I went from a 2019 Pilot to a 2021 CRV, I noticed that immediately. But other than that I have no complains, I just hit 40k miles on it and it’s running in pristine condition.

The push start beep sounds like the theme song from The Rose 😂
The 1.5 is inadequate for this car. I was considering it, but think I’ll go with something used with some horsepower
I agree, old but renewed 2.4 with added turbo and 200-230 hp would be so good for this car. Actually 1.5 turbo with 180 hp is not that bad, but I'll probably go with something else too
