Check out my newest video! 6000-mile update. and 16 issues I wish I knew! th-cam.com/video/HhB8A-NkmTo/w-d-xo.html
Would love to keep seeing updates on your CRV hybrid! Nice to get real world reviews like this from actual owners.
Thank you! Will keep em coming
Thanks for the video. Please be nice and don’t mislead people with your videos descriptions. Dealer problems are not a Honda problem.
Thanks for the comment! Please checkout my newest video. More focused on Honda manufacturing issues!
Chill dude lol 😂
Wish tere was a text version.
Thank you. A lot of the other reviews I've watched don't really talk about things that are important to me.
I’ve been looking at this car and am shocked there is no spare tire. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks. This is actually very helpful as I’ve had the crv on my list.
I was thinking how lucky I have been with mine. My 2018 had all sort of fit and finish issues. This 2023 is super perfect.
No BS, but I learned so much from this video! It's so cool how the car does the regenerative breaking. And I like how you described the accelerated cruise control.
Thank you for the kind words!
I agree. Out of all the videos I have seen on the CRV Hybrid Touring, this is the first one to fully explain the regenerative breaking and the accelerated cruise control.
ADAPTIVE cruise control.
My wife made me buy a 2023 crv honda hybrid sport touring. Don't let dealer touch anything they are usually thinking about their selves. I put a louder horn, crossbars, mud flaps side mouldings, different rear view mirror that opens garage doors,cargo cover and trailer hitch and wiring for trailer plugs in plug and play and cargo liner,glad she talked me into it it's black with black interior and black wheels, got a comment from young guy at Sam's he said it looked good and as high as gas is glad i got a hybrid.😮
Niceeee! Id love to see it. Sounds awesome
Great video!! Thx. I can't seem to find a hood deflector for the Hybrid....is the one you have installed for the EX/EX-L models?
My boy you just made my day I was about to pay extra at the dealership but I can do it myself..
Super easy! Glad to hear.
PDS instructions on college hills honda website
Very informative, thank you. Ours should be ready by the end of the month.
The bumper plug idea looks good! I doubt the dealer will give you a new bumper unfortunately. Thanks for the video, I have a 21 on lease and I'm considering if I should just keep mine or upgrade to the 24' next spring.
Thank you - a lot of stuff I would not have thought about!
Great tip about the front plate. Thanks
I think the bumper looks fine the way you have fixed it.
Great video! Please show us how to use the cargo area air pump to fill a bicycle tire? Nice work.
Please continue making these updates on CR-V hybrid.
Do you have instructions for the hood protector install? I did not find it on College Hill Honda's website.
Awesome video, man! You're right tho - not a lot of beneficial 2023 CRV vids up yet.I love my new CRV - got the Sport Hybrid. Kinda wish I'd sprung for the Sport Hybrid Touring with the bigger touchscreen and Bose system. I'm at less than 500 miles so MPG really can't be measured yet - currently seeing around 38mpg on the current fill up. Love your explanation of the regenerative braking - the dealer didn't explain it at all. Did want to point out that ACC is ADAPTIVE Cruise Control, not Accelerated. Looking forward to your chrome delete video - my model has black everything except for the chrome window trim for some reason. Thinking matte black to match the pillars. Anyway, thanks for the video!
Thank you! Oh yes adaptive haha. Slip up.
Currently blacking out my emblems! Video soon. And ill vinyl the window trim.
I wish they had a blackout version. Chrome is so 2000s
Very interested in your experience with your car. Please keep your experiences, mileage and thoughts coming. Thank You 😊
Thank you! Will do
Excellent review. Can you do a review of the cruise control/lane keep? That would be a fun one
Yea sure! I need to figure out a filming rig so i can do it safely while driving.
Thanks for your video and sharing your information. Are you also going to buy the sunroof wind deflector? If so, are you going to had the deal install it or do it yourself?
I didn’t like the look of it. So i wont be.
HI, you seemed pretty knowledgeable about the vehicle. I just got a 24 CR-V hybrid touring , lot to learn about it. Do you know if the 2.0 l engine is a timing chain or a wet belt ? I've looked and looked and I can't find an answer. Thanks
by the way where did you buy the bugflector? thanks
Thanks so much for these great videos! I am looking to buy a CRV hybrid. Does the Audible pedestrian warning noise (choir of angels sound) bother you or will I get used to it?
I like the sound. It is loud on reverse if you’re outside the car. Not inside
My splash guards, cargo tray, body side moldings, door edge film and door sill film just arrived today from College Hills Honda. The splash guards are necessary because I live in NY where we have to deal with those salt and snow in winters. I hope they look good. I'd see if I can install them myself.
Nice! The installation pdfs are on their website
In B mode you can use throttle to decrease regeneration. Just push throttle in delicately to slow down slower and let off the throttle to slow down faster. Also, using the brake pedal causes regeneration until you max out the green bar. At that point the brakes are applied without higher levels of regeneration.
I don't think he is using "B" properly. I don't understand it either
Nice video.
Love your dashcam setup.
Thanks!
@@UCversace What dashcam model are you using?
It's so slick and small: barely visible.
You got me thinking about putting one on the rear.
@@2xDenn 70Mai! should be a link in the bio
For me, buying the CRV hybrid is a purely practical choice as opposed to an emotional one, but an SUV ought to look sporty if not tough. The previous generation was really wimpy looking, but this new generation styling is more aggressive, add tailgate spoiler, bug deflector, and cross bars, and viola, something I can love visually. Fender flares may be a bit too much. I noticed you are using 70mai dash cam, which I’ll take as a good choice. Your videos have great content and you explain things really well. I’m looking forward to the chrome delete around the windows. Thanks!
Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate it.
Yes I completely agree. I would not purchase the 2022 model as it is a completely different car. This one is sporty and rugged. 💪
The 70mai worked well in my last incident. So I can’t switch now. Haha.
Great video! Your plugs look good on the front bumper, kinda like some sensors. Can you please tell me if your car has automatic rear braking when reversing?
www.hondainfocenter.com/2023/CR-V/Feature-Guide/Safety-Features/Collision-Mitigation-Braking-System-CMBS/
Thank you! I haven’t noticed the auto breaking in the rear. But i guess i back out slow. I dont see a specific mention of it on the website.
I looked into this further and found that new Hondas do have this new feature called Low Speed Braking. I think this can be turned on or off from the menu.
i was hoping to get the THule kayak lift , but you need crossbars that extend 3-4 inches past the roof rails. Do you think you can get different crossbars that dont end right at the roof rail?
oh yea, these end right there
Any issues with the roof rack and the moonroof clearance/usability once ya put attachments on the cross rails? ie Yakima or Thule attachments. Thanks and keep up the great work
I have yet to add anything on top, but its not the highest car. im sure it wouldnt fit in my garage though, i have a low door.
What is the spread center center distance between the front and rear crossbar ?
Great review
Im obsessed 🤩 make more please
Haha. Yes sir!
Hey - I just got the OEM crossbars in and for some reason my rear crossbar is too long. Not sure if I’m totally missing something here but the front bar went on fine.
The rear bar won’t even remotely fit. I thought maybe I had the wrong ones on, but the front one definitely was way too long for the rear.
Did you have any difficulty or resistance putting in the rear bar?
No, ! it fit perfectly !, I think they sent you the incorrect piece, or maybe for a different year?
Also, if you plan a long trip and feel the need for a spare tire ( not a bad thing ) you can buy a regular temporary spare and a jack to carry. Often those can be picked up at a salvage yard for cheap. Ask your Honda parts guy what size you need.
You shouldn't have too for $38K.
Dangerous thou if cant secure in the cabin, in accident dont want spare wheel flying thru car
Was glad to see a video like this. I've owned mine for almost a month with about 2,000 miles on it. I wondered if you had any issues with Android auto/ apple car play? Sometimes mine works great and sometimes it says my phone isn't compatible when it's a new phone.
I got my brand new CRV EXL 2023 ( January 2023) now about 1400 miles. The first time connecting with Apple car play is very good, every time I start the car, it automatically connects my iPhone with the audio system and turn on WAZE app, and playing the channel music that I chose in iHeart app before I turn off engine. But about 3,4 days ago, sometimes I started the car, the WAZE app not show up on screen, or the channel music not turn on. If I drove about 5,7 minutes I opened WAZE app, it showed my car still at the place I parked before and the screen froze. I have to open Maps app or Google Maps app instead using WAZE app. Others times, when I start the car, I heard the music from the radio, not from the music app in my iPhone😮. I checked, my iPhone not connected with audio system. Iam busy, so not find out what went wrong 🤔🥺. Thanks for sharing your problems
Had that issue initially, but it turns out that we have to have a legit Apple (or Android) phone charger cord -- don't try using cheap generic ones.
Hey I’m curious, does your parking sensors show up when you try to park head in? For some reason they only show up for me when I am on reverse.
Yes they do. Front and sides going head in
What made you chose this model vs rav4, venza hybrid or the cx5? I’m looking to get a hybrid suv and your videos have me leaning towards the crv
Honestly interior quality. Rav4 seats are hard and the design is 4-5 years old. Cx5 just looked more basic to me. Both felt more plasticy compared to the CRV. CRV also just had more interior and trunk space. The new dash also looks super awesome 😎.
I would say the rav4 and cx5 are pretty comparable in terms of size and engine both have 2.5 litter engine but the cx5 has a 5 or 6 speed auto compared to the rav4 with a cvt which does land the rav4 with better mpgs but if you're more into sporty driving go Honda or Mazda Mazda gives good value for money their interiors do feel more premium but you can kinda tell when they cheap out but for the money it ain't bad also they have well isolated interiors when it comes to what feels more upscale the venza and cx5 are comparable venza having a Lexus like interior cx5 feeling upscale overall it's up to you and what you value and look for
Hi there! Thanks for the videos, new subscriber here! 1 Question??? are you getting more wind noise with the cross bars on?
I haven’t noticed any difference! Had em for months now
Very helpful thanks
Welcome!
I'm surprised the dealer didn't tell you about no spare tire (one of the first things they told me). I have not purchased yet, but I have mixed feelings about that. But I do like the '23 Hybrid Touring overall - a very sharp-looking vehicle.
I still cannot get over how Honda made a new gen hybrid SUV longer than the RAV4 but failed to engineer to hold a spare tire. Several tire technicians told me unless absolutely necessary, never use a tire inflator kit for several reasons. I hope Honda has an OEM solution soon and/or includes in future model years.
They basically have to put that inflator in for legal reasons. I had to use it once and not only are they horrible, but both the tow truck and tire place told me that they damage the car.
@@CINIMA If a vehicle does not have a spare, I won't buy it. I agree, it is ridiculous that vehicles come without a spare. In fact, I am buying the non-hybrid CR-V for the spare tire reason.
Same with me.
@@SardoBob my BMW doesn’t have a spare, it has run flats…this tire repair kit is there just to, hopefully, get you to a tire shop, same principal as the run flats.
To each his own, but I can't remember the last car I owned where I got a flat tire. Admittedly I don't drive through housing construction zones or off road, but I don't even carry my tire inflator pump in any car. I have had more problems with batteries going flat.
Hi Zotzot, do we need to come to a full stop to change from D mode to B mode for regenerative and vice versa? How difference driving in D mode vs. B mode? If you could make a short video on that, it would be great. Thanks
I will make a video. No need to stop. Can change whenever you’re driving. D seems to be more fuel efficient so far
Thank you for the video! I installed mine with help of this video today. Did you get the Hood air deflector installed by dealer?
Yes. That one i did. The pdf is online. Not sure how hard it would be.
@@UCversace Where did you get yours if you don’t mind me asking?
@@ranayeem mine was installed at Hardin Honda. If you wanna order yourself. The Sons Honda website is pretty inexpensive
@@UCversace Thank you!
Might have missed it but did you put the hood lip guard on or did it come with the car?
I had the dealer install it
Thanks, trying to decide between the CRV and Rav4 so it’s good to see a nonreviewer view of the car. I live in a very hilly area and I wonder how the regenerative breaking would work.
Charges up nicely going down.
I’m doing the same comparison except nobody has the RAV4 on the lot and the used ones, 2021&22, are selling for the full sticker price as the 2023 model. The driving experience is the same as driving a Tacoma p/u. Whereas the CRV is more car like. Yes the Toyota system which couples and uncouples starts and stops is the more efficient unit . Toyota put its electric motor on the back axle making them all 4 wheel drive. The dealers around here are all back ordered and production is slow. Honda has bunches of CRV hybrids on the lit with frequent deliveries.
Toyota RAV not available.
You have to put your name on a list.
Looking at maybe getting a C-RV like yours, your videos are a great resource to me. Can you make one on the sound control forward back side etc, and also the equalizer, I am sure it must have one. Wish it had a digital mirror, but can live without that.
Picking up my sport touring, tomorrow Monday January 29th. What camera system do you have and how do you like the quality?
70mai. Works great. Has Sony sensors. I left a link in the bio. The phone app is just ok. But its a dash cam. Can’t expect youtube app quality’s.
Thank you
Another great vid. How do you feel about the lack of a spare tire? Their kit apparently has a sealant which can help with flat tires but its not a robust solution. I am considering buying a spare donut for mine, but really not sure if I should. Also, do you always drive in Eco mode?
I drive in normal only. Never eco. I should try it for a tank. But ive had best results on normal.
@@UCversace got it. i'm more of an eco guy myself and get ~40mpg. lmk what you think about the lack of a spare
How do you get 40 mph. I have only 700 miles. Does it take time. I get about 30 mpg now
@@RC-ex9tp my average is 36. 40 in stop n go traffic. I drive normal mode. I never floor it. Top tier 87 gas. From costco only.
On this hybrid touring, how many times a month do you gas up? I currently have a 2019 crv & definitely looking to upgrade to this hybrid. Thanks for your videos, they are helpful👍
Welcome! Well it depends on your drive. But you can expect around 450 miles a tank. You can hit 500 if you’re very conservative or drive in traffic all the time.
I fill every 10-12 days. But my work commute is long some days.
@@UCversace how much does a full tank run you?
@@bostonmatt $45 -50 in California. At $4 a gal.
The plugs look better than the holes. Maybe leave it in case you need to have the front tag.
I do like Honda's touch up paint container.
When the engine engages, is it like the auto stop function? You can hear it engaging like you pressed the strat button.
No it comes on n off seamlessly. No clunk or pings like a regular transmission.
Yes. The little plugs look stylish
Great video! Did the addition of crossbars increase wind noise? Debating adding them to mine as well as chrome delete.
No additional noise on streets. Ill do a highway test tomorrow!
@@UCversace My sport hybrid arrives this weekend. Did you by the crossbars from Honda and it not, maybe Amazon? And what did you pay? I'll probably have to buy the racks too since my most likely doesn't come with the racks after PDI.
@@richardtausch2 from Sons Honda Online store. For $188 and shipping. Self install
@@UCversace Cool stuff and thank for sharing actually useful videos!
What trim is your CR-V? Touring? I noticed the sunroof.
All the Hybrid trims, whether Sport or Touring, have the sunroof.
Does the car come with Honda link where you can program the garage door opener??
No
Awesome video! Do you think the sound system is good? Is the soundproofing good?
I think its great. Quiet ride. And the bose system beats loud. I have bass turned upp. Crispy audio
@@UCversace thank you mate, much appreciated your response
Definitely make dealer fix bumber holes - Funnel if no one commented yet is also for emergency gas fill if you happen to run out of gas and need roadside fill.
Hi, I'm just wondering is when will i use the car in battery mode?
I just had the car. So please help me. Thanks
It switches automatically
Yo, this is MONEY video and really shows the consumer side. I love mine and thanks for all the tips!
Welcome! Thank you 🙏
Did you actually torque those cross bar screws to 7.4 ft-lbs or did you hand tighten them?
Hand tighten, I dont plan on putting cargo on them ever. Just for esthetics
The college link isn’t working. Do you have another website?
Same thing happened when I got mine from dealership drill a hole for the plate but they won’t do nothing about it soo I bought a license plate delete for a Subaru WRX and looks great u should buy one
Have you noticed any Wind Noise from the Honda OEM Cross Rails?
Nopee
I saw you paid 50k for this car. what is 2500 markup means? the 1200 add on is the options you chose, right?
Did you buy the handheld honda paint, and how much ?
Got it from the dealer free. I see it for $20 online
Hi, where did you order your crossbars from? I’ve tried to access them from the links you provided but they are not available yet. I’m from Canada but heading to the states soon. I don’t want to pay $400 Cdn for the crossbars here, I would love to get the ones you have as they look easy enough to install. Thanks.
I got them from college hills honda website. You can google search it
Thanks for sharing I only have 1 concern with my CR-V when I turn the heat on it does not heat my feet, it does on the passenger side only, so I just want to make sure is for everybody not just me. I will appreciate is you can answer.
There's probably no floor vent on the floor of the driver side or try cranking up the fan speed and see if there a difference
Nice VDO. Thanks for sharing. I have been driving 2 CRVs total for 24 years now. It's time and need to upgrade. Would you mind to let me know how far apart between roof cross bars? if you measure from front of the front of cross bar to front of the back cross bar, that should give me the center to center. I am greatly appreciate your help. I am looking forward to your next VDO. Thank you so much
If you buy a new crv go with the hybrid since it get the 2 litter engine instead of the 1.5 turbo with oil dilution problems if I were you if those crvs lasted that long you must be doing something right keep them
I dont have a tape measure, but the college honda website should say the distance on the installation instructions
Thats a cool submarine.
Gratzi
Have you been able to figure out if you can turn off the sound when reversing?
No luck with that. I think its legal requirement. Cant change
It's a speaker. It's under the black plastic cover under the hood behind the radiator, next to the horn. It's a small plug and is easy to disconnect.
Did you notice any reduction in mpg with crossbars installed vs not?
No reduction
Where did you get the mats?
Link in description! College honda
What’s the lowest you let the mile range numbers go down before filling up. This is my first week I let it get down to a predicted 20 miles left. The gas gauge last bar was on red and I got worried so I filled up but there was still 2 gallons of gas left. I probably could’ve gone well over 500 miles on a tank of gas
Its a 13 gallon tank right? Lowest i gone is like 10 miles left. But im curious to push it further
@@UCversace 14 gallon. I’m coming up to two weeks with no fill up 😄 100 miles left according to the dash
I appreciate your videos. I like the CRV, and that color, but how come it shows 31.2 mpg (current drive) That’s not in the 34 - 40 range, could you share your thoughts on that? Is that common? I saw that in another video as well.
So thats the “drive” MPG. Its not as accurate. Because its based off when you turn on the car. And resets when you turn it off. The dash MPG of 35.8 is the tank MPG after 220 miles.
If i just turn on my car and stay in EV mode to the store. It will show 199.9 MPG.
Its better for like a 20 mile drive. Then u can see if the uphill or something had an influence on your drive.
Thank you! That’s helpful
Mine s how 28mpg,over 2000 on clock.
Cold pa winter,mostly highways
I'm very disappointed.
Good only,between 60°F-70*F🤣🤣🤣good job honda.
@@krzysztofczaplicki5065 damn. Thats awful. Yea if you got the heater on too. Engines gonna be on more
@@UCversace
Awful,well I just feeling.............,every time on gas station
Honda is saying B is for engine breaking. Which you would use going down hill. I assume this replaces shifting to low gears which you would do with a normal transmission.
What are the crossbar model numbers? And where did you order it from the cheapest? Thanks again for the video.
Check the college hills honda website in the description. Has the numbers. I found it at sons honda online using the numbers for the least amount
How can you argue when it's a state requirement for cars sold on their lot to have a front license plate? I'm looking at the CR-V as a replacement for my Accord, Very informative video, thanks for sharing
Thank you 🙏
Have you considered installing a tow hitch to use for a bike rack? Just curious as there has not been any videos on TH-cam covering the install on a 2023 CRV hybrid model. Overall, your video is helpful. Thank you.
Honestly. The back is so large i just fold the seats and toss my bikes in haha.
I just found a video on the 2023 Hybrid and it looks like a lot of disassembly. I look for a video because a Honda dealer told me yesterday that Honda doesn’t recommend a trailer hitch on the Hybrid! No one told me that when I bought it.
@@vincentfinneran7414 thats wild. maybe theyre lazy and dont wanna install it.
Once again, I really appreciate your videos. I’m especially interested in your gas mileage as you drive more and more. if you would be so kind as to keep an average gas mileage tally as you move forward it would be wonderful. As far as your dealer goes, it definitely doesn’t seem like they pay attention to detail, it sucks to have such a poor experience. when I purchased my 2022 CRV. I noticed a couple of scratches in the back tailgate and they said they were unable to buff them out so they took the car and repainted the entire tailgate. the answer was we will do whatever it takes to make it right
Thank you! At least they repainted. Mine made me paint on my own haha.
Last tank i did 393 miles on. (50 remaining). 36.6 MPG. Current full range is 470 ish. (Always based off previous MPG)
Im getting between 35-37 consistently now.
Its advertised as 37 combined.
I really wished it was a 16 gallon tank instead of 14. I don’t understand why they didn’t. All this fuel efficiency to get a little better total range. But if they kept the tank standard. I could do 500 miles easy between fill ups.
Yes I'm concerned about real life mpg so far I've read real owners tell bad stories of getting nowhere near the EPA often getting high 20s which is almost same as gas version whereas RAV4 hybrid owners say it gets better than epa
Next video will most likely be on chrome deletion for window trim and emblems :)
Comment here if you’d like anything else checked out ! Subscribe for that CRV content 😂🎉❤
Thanks for the videos! Subscribed.
I'm curious about the rear licenses plate bulbs. How bright are they at night? One of those little mods that I will change if they're aren't leds
How to black out emblems
@@ctex7812 just posted a video on that!
@@justalot123 decently bright! Looks like led to me
Hi...How about the running board....I think more better....
According to Car and Driver, they noticed a 2-3 map loss when the Kia Carnival they were testing had the crossbars on. Just an FYI for you.
Thanks! So far i havent noticed any dip in mpg
Could you do a video explaining the tires. Did you get a spare? I just got my crv 2023 sport touring hybrid yesterday
Also, what does EV mode mean? Lol😅
There is no spare tire, just a inflation kit in the back left. EV mode means running solely on the battery! no gas., Ill try to touch on it in the next video!
The #1 topgun RAV4 is set for a massive redesign in 2024. I’m thinking I’ll wait for it. The internal ergonomics should be vastly improved along with noise reduction and it will be bigger with more power than the CRV.
You’re CRV is bitch’n dude! 👍
Thank you! I look forward to seeing the new rav!
where did you buy the cross bar?
link in bio!
Hopefully your paint holds up I've never seen a brand with more vehicles on the road with horrible roofs that look like acid. I've seen grey 2023 HRV videos on tiktok that show the paint peeling on many vehicles
Oh shooot. Thats not good
I mean it's an hrv...
I think some AT tires would look sick on this car, and give it an even more aggressive look. Maybe some Falken Wildpeaks or Nomad Grapplers
Nah it would make the ride quality really bad
Crossbar increase wind noise?
No sir
I've been reading that people have been getting horrible gas mileage with this new hybrid CRV. What are you experiencing, what's your best and worst MPG that you've tracked so far?
So far I get 33-34mpg average according to the car computer
Yeah he's in a warm place it looks like anyone in a cold climates is getting about 28 overall whereas I know RAV4 hybrid owners getting 43 in warm and 39 to 40 overall in cold. That's a 12mpg difference in something that's brand new vs RAV4 been around in same model for 4 years. Hopefully Honda gets better
@@Nobodyreallyatall car computers aren't accurate. Manufacturers rig all of them to look better . If u track fill-up to fill-up your actual you'll know how much your getting. One time I went by the computer and lost almost 50km vs the projected. The computer claimed I got 550km but my records shows 500.
@@sharkharkToyota is on its 4 th generation hybrid system. This is the second gen for Honda. If maybe they had doubled the size of the battery you could use it longer. Rav4 has 1.4 kw vs 1.1 for Honda.
@@sharkhark I mean the rav 4 is a smaller car so it does make sense why it gets better mpgs

Im currently trying to figure out if I want this or the accord hybrid touring
You want this. The accord kinda basic exterior design tbh.
@@UCversace the inside though is insane they really went all in on the tech I test drove both of them yesterday ultimately we went with the CRV Hybrid Touring because we need a bigger car. Plus the deal I got is insane. $489/month
@@xL9Px WOW 489?! Any down payment? Finance rate? Im paying 960$ a mo lol
@@UCversace I leased the vehicle. So after the test drive I was undecided because I wanted the bigger vehicle but really liked the tech on the Accord Hybrid Touring. They did have a few promotions because of Memorial Day sale. So originally I was offered the vehicle for $530/month and the Accord Hybrid Touring for $541/month. Knowing I have tier 1 credit (797) to be exact I then started negotiating. I had them cover the accusation fee. I had them lower the money factor which is the equivalent of the APR on a lease and lastly spoke to their sales manager on knocking off a bit from the msrp. So he comes back and says $489/month is the best I can do. I told him okay if you throw in the all season floor mats I’ll take the vehicle. He did and I took the deal. The only thing is I wanted the SUV in silver but that was not available so I took it in white.
Liked and subbed. Have a 24 that a twin to yours. Funnel is for using a gas can to. Incase you run out of gas. Thanks for the tip on ordering stuff from honda. Have 2g in Honda stuff on mine. But i will shop around from here on.
It depends where you bought it from
On full tank how many mile crv hybrid 2023 can drive?
Average is about 500 miles in the city and 450 miles on the highway. Driving the speed limit!
Sounds like you are in CA like me with the comment about the front plate requirement with Teslas galore without one.
Compated to the last gen CR-V, this much better with big windows, less complicated front looks and rear lights copy of Volvo is better this time. Hope this is more capable on the road
Bought one yesterday, good tips in here! My one complaint is all the stupid programmed noises over the speakers, like the fake shifting engine sounds and the reverse noise. I would be fine with a super silent car, 'quiet' is part of how they sell the hybrid idea, but they don't tell you they force on all these gimmick sounds. At least the backup noise is regulated though that isn't honda's fault.
Yea backup is regulated. Unless you’re in sport mode. There shouldn’t be any fake shifting noises. Its not a sports car. So i wish they would have left those out as well.
I wonder if it can be turned off in settings.
I mean the hybrid noises only come up when you're driving in low speeds they are very quiet especially once you get up to speed I personally have the last gen crv the hybrid system is very smooth you can't really tell when it's using engine or hybrid when it's switching in between it
