The Honda CR-V is the automotive world’s peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It’s incredibly familiar, nearly universally well-liked, and a more satisfying than you remember. It’s not the most exciting car on the road, but if you’re looking for something safe, affordable, and attractive, the Honda CR-V is a good choice.
The CR’V’s base LX trim arrives fitted with a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine, but the EX, EX-L, and Touring trims all receive Honda’s 1.5-liter 4-cylinder. Good for 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque, the smaller 4-pot is more satisfying and responsive, and it gets better fuel economy, too. Chris managed 27.7 miles per gallon on his test loop (without using the CR-V’s Economy mode), while the EPA expects 29 mpg combined.
All-wheel drive is optional, and it works in a way designed to help with slippery road conditions, rather than being an off-road setup. Honda also packs Honda Sensing-it’s suite of advanced safety features-into every trim, save the LX. Adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking are all included in Honda Sensing.
Inside, CR-V owners will enjoy 39.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, and nearly 76 cubes with the rear seat folded. A 7-inch touchscreen comes standard on the LX and above, and it runs both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Chris didn’t love the CR-V’s voice-command system, but he did acknowledge that this version of the car’s infotainment setup was an improvement over the 2018 model.

I really appreciate that you addressed the problems so people can make an informed decision.
I just picked up a CRV EX 2 weeks ago. I know it's early in the game, but man, do I ever love it. Rides beautifully and gets great gas mileage. I'm 6'2" and I have a ton of room. Absolutely LOVE IT!!!
Just purchased the same car today with 22k miles, I pick it up tomorrow. Do you still like it a year later? Any issues with oil dilution?
@@TheBoardRoom_ Hey. Yes, it’s a couple of years old now & I still like it. I did have the oil dilution problem last winter & it was “fixed” by the dealer. I’ll know for sure this winter. I’m hoping it’s been dealt with 🤞🏼
@@MrHabs66 ahh sounds good - I hope it's fully resolved. Thanks!
Can you fit a sheet of plywood in the back??
I bought a new EXl. Just love it. Getting 29 mpg local. Smooth, comfortable, spacious and economical. Hey its a Honda.
I bought a 2019 CR-V Touring which I probably should not have, but I wanted that badge. I have had some minor annoyances, but overall I really like it. Like you, I have been getting amazing mileage, especially around town. I live in a small town so perhaps get better mileage than someone that drives in heavy traffic with lots of traffic lights. I have been getting 31-32 mpg around town. YES, THAT IS CORRECT ! I just reset it after being on a trip and drive around town for awhile. It amazes me at the mileage I get around town. Highway mileage can be excellent, too, when driving on highway with 55 mph speed limit. I set it at about 60 and I have gotten 37-38 on short trips. Now, when getting on the interstate and going 70 mph, which is the speed limit, the mpg does go down. Also, it seems the wind direction is a much bigger factor than it was with my sedan. All in all, though, I love it so far !
We are going to by this SUV shortly it's very nice video that you are reviewing.very nice.I like your review....I like watching reviews.
I bought my EXL 1 month ago and no issues so far. My highest GPA on one trip averaged 36.3 Mpg and always above 32 Mpg on my one hour drives to work.
Does yours sound like a motor boat when accelerating? I just bought an EX CRV and the acceleration noise is a bit annoying.
@@JohnBaquiran I thought it was just me. But I hear it too. I don't have any problems w/ it in general but yes it can be annoying at times.
I have a 2018 Touring with that exact same color and love it. Fun to drive, dependable and I think a sharp vehicle! Also, fortunately, no issues with my turbo engine or battery. Great video!
Very interesting - Thanks for the info re the turbo and battery.
why is embedd Nav still a thing? This was like 2006. Everyone just uses google map nav on carplay I'm assuming??? that's what i do
I test drove the Toyota Rav4 recently. It didn't have the smooth ride like the CR-V. The Toyota had a lot of friction and pull while driving and the car felt less secure. The Honda is a better choice. Honda company claim they corrected the problem with the oil/fuel dilution, and not just in the 26 states. They said it was a cold weather related issue, but drivers with this car also had the same problem in warm climates. We'll see...
Thanks very good job explaining i like it .
meto
Just bought a new 2019 CR-V EX-L. We'll see what happens. Love it so far.
Is it FWD or AWD?
@@TerrelLism FWD
Hope it never catches on fire with gasoline and oil bouncing around everywhere in your engine :)
@@NN-gy7xl HaHa, me too! Scotty makes it sound like my days are numbered!
I have a 2019 Honda CRV and I love it.
A great review. I had the original and the mark two. I’ve had two RAV4s also. The Hondas were in a different class, altogether, much better. I’d love to get this latest one, one day. I have a Honda Accord Euro and it’s the most accomplished sedan/ saloon I’ve ever had, too bad you can’t get them in the UK anymore.
So you like the Honda better than the RAV4? I wanted a RAV4 originally and I test drove one last year and to me it drove hard and I didn't get it and I ended up getting a 2019 Honda CRV touring and it drove so smooth and so bouncy and so good. I really love the Honda CRV.. And wanted the RAV4 but I couldn't get over how hard it drove I didn't like that
I drove both the EX and the LX model. I agree the EX is a great value per feature content. Now for reality, I would rather purchase an LX with AWD with All Weather Mats. Reason being the 2.4 naturally aspirated engine is very well tried and true and the engine definitely sounds smoother than the 1.5. Also power is not a whole lot of difference.
Yes, the EX trim is the absolute best value and yes, the 2.4L was a tad smoother on my test drive comparo. The HP/Tq numbers aren't that different, but the power band is. Peak torque comes on at like 2K rpm in the turbo, which is why 0-60 and mpgs are so much better in the 1.5T where the CVT can just keep it in the optimal powerband longer. Whether you think the oil dilution risk is worth it is another matter, but I'm lucky that my 2017 EX AWD still is fine.
@ryan orlanda yes, it's fine.
Nice video!!
I have a 2009 CR-V, and love the look of this new one! I too would get the EX because of the standard safety tech. But I thought the power seat was only on the EX-L and up?
Gerard Pritchard no, it starts on the EX. Just above the basic LX 😌
EX HAS THE SAME 12 WAY POWER DRIVER SEAT AS WELL,BUT NOT THE PASSENGER SEAT.
i do live in canada and planning to buy this 2019 crv ex... any feedback about oil dilution for this year?
The Honda CRV rides so much nicer than the Forrester and the RAV4.
It's a pity that Subaru discontinued the Forester XT Turbo I bought a few years ago. That car's ride is nice and taut and blew the doors off other family SUVs.
Yeah, the EX AWD trim is the best overall value if you don't need leather. Our 2017 EX still hasn't had any oil dilution issues, but the HU is kinda laggy, and the city MPGs are less than expected, but we're in heavy traffic often. It's peppy and handles really well compared to its direct competition - even against the mazda.
Phrancis5 the best is the lx version without the turbo charged oil leaking into fuel problem.
@@lackyparker7799 Only if all the turbo engines have oil dilution and most do not. You're only saving a few grand with the LX and all the advanced active safety and infotainment tech is missing - plus the performance is lacking.
Phrancis5 yeah but I’ll have a reliable car for years.
@@lackyparker7799 They said Vtec and electro-hydraulic torque vectoring was complicated and unreliable, but 20+ yrs later I'm still driving my Prelude SH with almost all original parts and no major repairs. Sure, all things being equal, the more complicated sys would likely need repairs sooner, but I'm not willing to forgo a lot of the features and advantages I was looking for. A basic flip phone is surely more reliable, but most wouldn't trade their smartphone for it. Again, I don't have oil dilution, as well as most owners if you follow the forums and FB groups.
Phrancis5 yeah that’s true I guess only time will tell.
Great car,....Japneese pricision....Greetings from Ireland
Thanks, but drove a 19 CRV Touring noticed it was noisey on the interstate.
Keep your fuel injectors clean and you wont have any oil dilution. Clean fuel injectors will improve combustion, which can easily be done by using top tier fuel. I have the 2018 EX and have no issues with oil dilution
What brand gas do you use?
@@maxt999 Costco since I have a membership. But any top tier fuel with 87 octane will work. Toptiergas.com will provide a list of gas stations
The point od buying new car is worry free reliability. Upgrading to higher fuel its not a fix. You only putting bandage . It’s not long term solution.
@@user-oz3kt8mw2j not higher fuel, i use 87 octane. Its fuel with fuel additives and costco's price is cheaper than anywhere else by me. Dont have amy misfire or smell of gas in my cabin at all. Keeping the fuel injectors clean is a long term solution to ensure the fuel sprays for improved combustion. Otherwise, dirty injectors will drip fuel past the pistons into the oil. Since it is a direct injected car, the goal is to burn off all the fuel in the combustion chamber
What percentage can I expect to get off of retail price of CRV Hybrid? 5%? 10%? 15%?
2019 Buick Regal GS
There seems to be a lot of debate re: oil dilution issue-- both about possible causes (owners reporting this do not solely live in cold climates) and how it might be remedied. This review (conveniently for Honda) appears to minimize/gloss over the issue.
What about air bag issues , an turbo gas in engine oil ?
In the north east market amenities such heated mirrors should be standard
Honda has been sold hundreds thousand of CRV with turbo engine from in the US, how many of them (let say about %) have oil dilution issue (for 2017-2019)? Anyone has any idea?
oil dillution PROBLEMS happened on 2017-2018 HONDA CRVs. Maybe SOME 2019s. China had the good sense to pull theirs from buyer purchase... the ones with problems people did not buy. Here in AMERICA we have different regs as such, honda crvs are still RECOMMENDED because they here dont consider the OIL DILLUTION ISSUE a DRIVABILITY problem.I too have a 2019 HONDA CRV-EX AWD AND THE REPROGRAMMED THE FUEL SYSTEM...If that works good , if not... But most if not all 2019 honda crvs may have skated that issue.
All of them to a certain extent
Owners with the OD issue will of course complain the loudest, troll every comment section, and skew public opinion. I will say my 2017 CRV has been fine the whole time and I do check regularly and don't live in a particularly hot region.
all of them, because every car on the road has the same situation to a small degree hondas, is just much worst
@@clarencewhite6053 Hey so, its been 4 months since your comment. How is the oil dilution problem on your engine? have you seen any signs? a quick way to check is to check the oil stick and if it smells like gasoline then it might have the problem. would you let us know please? thanks!
Sometimes little things make a big difference in one's evaluation of a vehicle. In this case the fact that the CR-V offers rear seat AC vents while the RAV4 does not is mine. With a 14 y/o daughter who can take complaining to the level of high art and a big dog who insists on being comfortable in his second home I simply wouldn't do without rear seat vents. It prevented my purchase of a RAV4 in 2012 and it would be the same today.
That doesn't mean, however, that I'd choose a CR-V for my family. I prefer one of the vehicles in the next larger category, a "tweener" larger than the typical compact SUV ( 188" to 191" long vs 180" or so in length). Most of those vehicles have standard or optional V6 engines and conventional geared transmissions.Most are two row vehicles but the KIA Sorento has a surprisingly accommodating third row that's very convenient for occasional use.
Ok
Stephen Hendricks I just drove a new Rav-4 and it has rear a/c vents. I took photos of it. However it’s only on the trims above the base level, not the base level Rav-4.
Stephen Hendricks I just bought the VW Tiguan, it has a small 3rd row and the Rear air vents
@@2004cyrus My error, Joshua. Thanks for the correction. I was going by a Toyota website and the information on such websites is not always up to date.
@@2004cyrus Yes, you're correct about the Tiguan. I left it out for two reasons. First, at 185" it doesn't fall in the "tweener" category I was citing and second the optional third row in the Tiguan is a cruel joke.
I drive a GTI and looked seriously at the Tiguan when I was shopping for an SUV last year. I love VW interiors and I liked the overall driving dynamics of the Tiguan. Perhaps because I'm accustomed to the performance of my GTI, however, I found the Tiguan to be rather lazy unless it was put into sport mode. That might have been unfair based on my personal history. Ultimately, my wife and I settled on the KIA Sorento. It's her daily driver and she preferred it. And though we don't use the third row very often, it's surprisingly accommodating when we chauffeur a gaggle of teenage girls around town or need a vehicle that seats six or seven passengers for a short trip and the alternative is taking two vehicles.
So glad I bought the 2019, because the 17 and 18 had oil dilution issues and the 20 has that butt ugly front bumper and that awful start/stop feature.
I purchased a new 2018 CRV last year. We loved the car except for one major flaw that I don’t hear anyone talking about. From stop there is a major time lag in power till you get up to speed. I know the CVT trans has a bit of a delay. But between the under powered 1.5 turbo and the drawn out CVT trans we got ride of the Honda. Sad to see it go but acceleration safety was a concern.
What did you get instead?
J Zookeeper we bought a 2018 Range River Evoque
Under powered 1.5? You're brain dead. That engine is anything but under powered. *Facepalm*
Can you show us if the front seat can fold 180 degrees back? The front seat is very important to me. I like to sleep and lay back in my car. Thanks!
Yes, the front driver power seat on the EX goes all the way back.
Can somebody have replacement of CRV infotainment with after markets radio as CRV infotainment is SUCK..unless you have subwoofer inbuilt or extra. Radio FM/AM one of worst.?
Other issue is windsheild is always foggy..you have to have Fan on in all weather?
Shame you guys in the US don't have the hybrid version yet. I just bought one and its an awesome bit of kit.
MPG??? come on let us know!
@@alejandroruiz754 It's around 44 & wished it was a little better but i don't drive like a nun. My old Cr-v, a 4th gen 2013 2.2 diesel was definately better on fuel.
I have the 2017 CRV ex-l with nav and guess what? My battery lasted 14 months, the shortest of my 52 years of driving. Also you failed to mention the shift knob breaking off as mine did in my hand while backing out. My car is the same color as yours because in the sunlight it POPS.LOL I have had my car back to the dealer more than any car I have ever owned. OH its a 17 with 11563 miles today.....
Could you do a 2020 Honda CRV Touring review please ?
Sayan Deb Bhattacharyya it wouldn’t be any different; only has more features
Software can’t stop fuel from mixing with the oil. That’s a hardware problem.
Bet you can't even spell duh if spotted the d and u.
Mel ? What
is there goin to be a hybrid here in the US soon?
Yes, coming this spring - i believe.
I would only buy the 2.4 liter engine. The turbo engines have an oil dilution problem.
Not!
I’ve got a 18. Runs and drives great! No problems. 93000. Only replaced brake pads.
I really love the features of our 2018 CRV-EXL but the oil dilution is a real issue that the "software fix" has NOT resolved. Honda knows the excessive oil dilution is not limited to cold regions and short drives (although that may make it worse) and that it has not been fixed. The reality is it may be a faulty engine design that can't be fixed. So if you really want a CRV - it might be best to lease it so you can hand the keys back to Honda in 2 to 3 years - before the engine needs major repairs due to premature wear.
They REDISIGNED THE CRV in 2017. Ithought it might be a good idea to wait a year or two thats why a got the 2019. Whatever is going on, HONDA had better get on the stick because TOYOTAs got a brand new RAV4 out on the bricks and its sharp. TOYOTAs RAV 4 used to have 6speed autos, for 2019 they have 8speed auto. CVTs are no party favorite but, they function for the purpose of FUEL ECONOMY, But TURBO LAG is there..some people dont care. In all TOYOTA is a direct competor so honda needs to up their game and the OIL DILLUTION issue HELPS NOT.
I have a 2018 Honda Accord. It uses the same 1.5T engine, but it's tuned differently. Tuned as in software. The CRV runs at a higher pressure especially when cold. Update software to run at a lower pressure when cold and problem solved. I haven't read of any Accords having the excessive dilution problem.
By the way, EVERY internal combustion engine has oil dilution. It's inherent to the design because of the use of piston rings. There will always be the need for a slight gap. If the rings sealed perfectly, the piston wouldn't move due to too much friction or fuel economy would be horrendous due to engines friction. Oil is formulated to deal with it and vehicle engineers take this into consideration when determining oil change interval. Worse case, change the oil more often. Oil is cheap.
No it doens't. I have a 22 y/o Toyota RAV4 and never had oil entering the engine issues. Nice covering for a corporation who should have their shit together by now.
Oil is not formulated to deal with the amount of gas dilution occurring in Honda’s 1.5 turbo engine. I’m a Honda fan, but believe it or not even Honda engineers occasionally have design issues. Your comment isn’t accurate as it relates to the Honda 1.5 liter turbo.
i like is DCT transmission.
I have a 2017 CRV and love it but did have a battery that couldn't handle all things electric being ON more or less at once. Ended up with dead battery on a lot in the middle of a snow storm. Not pleasant. But I took it to a dealer and got a better battery for free as my battery was still under the 2-year warranty. Don't know why Honda hasn't solved this problem. The car is otherwise perfect.
Hansi Stein
I think they should have a higher output on the alternator.
My CRV is sliding in the icy roads, I’m not sure if it’s the wheels or the weight. I have a 2019 4 wheel drive.
Its called slow down on icy and snowy roads. Been driving on them for 52 years and not one wreck. Speed will kill...
all this trouble for 2mpg gas saving; stay away from turbo
This kind of advice is just silly as are you !
I just bought the EX CRV and noticed the sound when I accelerate sounds like a motor boat. Is that normal??
John B
Yep , I noticed the same
Yes that’s a lot of Honda’s
Turbo... Everyone selling turbo today, but it is Honda problem is very unusual. !!!, I was looking at 2017 to purchase CRV here in Canada(we do not have option to get regular 2.4 L engine here), only turbo, but decide to go with Rav 4,.. Rear and back sonars are very important for me.( reality of today small parking spots) Honda had only dealer option install rear parking on new car.. Why not to add from factory as they did for Passport ? Why take the radio knobs and add back only volume??? It is a car to drive and park and less destruction for driver it is the best..The best is for Honda is switch to 2.4 l regular engine as Hyndai did with Tuscon model. I can advise about Civic( i,m SUV person).Good Luck
you didnt touch on road noise in the cabin which is a massive problem for me in the 2016 CRV. I could hear it in your video. the new one appears loud too!
F Fotz THIS!
Honda’s main weakness in my opinion is excessive road and wind noise...in all their vehicles!
I’m thinking they use thinner glass (lighter weight for fuel economy), and that leads to wind noise.
Not sure why Honda can’t solve the tire and road noise issue!
I didn’t want a CVT with this CR-V so I bought a 2019 VW Tiguan instead and love it!
If your vw has a dual clutch transmission you BETTER change that fluid every 30k miles
Oh the American Tiguan has an 8 speed automatic
Str8Rippin93 I’d like to own some kind of dual clutch
Is it as good as the Subaru Forester? Some people think the Subaru is better handling.
Honda CRV is a much better ride.
Look up videos stating "common Subaru problems" and specifically look for videos done by mechanics. It's insane what they consider routine maintenance such as replacing wheel bearings every 60k miles, head gasket replacement every 90k miles, etc.
Subaru HAS SYMETRICAL AWD WITH DRIVE OR X-MODE. Handling is PROBABLY ON PAR, NOT MUCH BETTER THAN THE CRV.
And the clackety boxer engine will drive you nuts in the Subie. I know, I owned a '17 Outback. The crazy clatter it made on cold starts was insane, and this is common on ALL Subarus.
A Subaru is much more likely to have engine problems later
What about the heater and defroster problems I have seen comments about with the CRV. No heat at idle and no heat in very cold weather
What is the battery problem, whats going on, anyone know???
Mine lasted 14 months. Shortest life I have ever had. My 2006 Avalon lasted 6years before I bought a new one so not to push my luck.
I agree its perfect
Why does Honda put safety 2nd instead of making it their first priority? Makes no sense that you have to get the EX before you can have the safety features, as a consumer that does not sit well with me.
So which country is this? In canada the price is 38,000 msrp for the EXL
32 in Texas
Oil dilution...GDI causes valves to carbon up... CVT weak..Shell is great Power train....will leave you on the side of the road walking after warrenty
Nice review. I am hearing of this oil dilution issue. What does that mean? Hasn’t Honda been selling the CRV for 20+ years? Isn’t this a best selling suv with 100,000’s of this model sold?
Fifth generation Honda CR-Vs (2017-Present) currently have many recalls regarding issues with steering, wheel and handle bar, electric power assist system, fuel system, gasoline, hoses, lines, pipings, and fittings.
The 2017 and up models other than the base LX have a small turbo motor with direct injection. That combo in the CR-V and Civic has an issue with oil being diluted by gasoline getting past the piston rings. It's worse in cold weather and short trips (where the gas isn't burned off) make it worse. Many owners have had issues with the oil level getting too high due to the gasoline infiltration and causing drivability problems.
Hogtown1986 is Honda aware ? I would think as theses are big issues they would recall bad and address them? To me all makes Have issues, Nissan? Subaru CVT, Ford Explorer, our transmission crapped at 8000 miles.
Hey cargurus! I got EXL the price starts at msrp 38,000 mhmm why expinsive than what you said on this video?
Daryl garnica $38,000 that’s way too high
You got ripped off man
we have a 2019....we’re in Canada...ours had the battery issue and is going in for a software update which is supposed to correct the problem...we’ll see what happens...
Do you have the oil dilution issue?
Scott S was it corrected?
@@YanesCorner thanks for the info.
Midi Man no I was asking just like you. Sorry for the confusion.
@@YanesCorner gotcha
Cool..
Love this suv but those gauges are aweful looking.
The wheel also
Any turbo needs a Caught can, to caught any moisture in the air cooler, which causes the miss fire.. reprogram with a free oil change won't do anything, but a small hole in the intercooler and the Caught can is what needs done..
Please do a video on the CRV oil dilution issue? Has this issue been fixed? Honda is still selling a lot of CRVs. I’m trying to decide between the 2019 CRV and the 2019 Toyota RAV4. I was leaning towards the CRV but I don’t want to deal with this issue with a new car.
Same for me !
I have a 2019 CRV EX and love it! Was also looking at the rav 4 but no regrets on the CRV. The interior is soooo much nicer and roomier. If your still co concerned, lease it. I have a family of 4 and love it.
Shane Shaheen Thank you! I’m leaning towards the CRV more.
I just got my
Had a 2018 had to jump start it at 4000 miles, totaled it at 7000 miles air bags never deployed , i like it but it will be a long road to recovery for me.
Since this was published Honda has acknowledged the oil dilution issue and extended the engine component warranty to 6 years, unlimited miles for all 50 states for the EX and above. Honda has also extended the "fix" for the 1.5 turbo motor to all 50 states, but it's up to the dealer whether they will apply it or not. I asked for it (in Florida), and it was performed with a free oil change.
Oil dilution is real. My oil reeks of gasoline all the time, but worse after short trips. The oil level goes up and down, but the car is driven enough that it never gets dangerously high and has not caused drivability problems. No, I haven't had the oil professionally tested, but I've changed my own oil since 1983 and know what used oil smells like - and it ain't gasoline. This is an issue for all direct-injected engines, but Honda's implementation with the turbo has made it worse. I can only hope the synthetic oil and the engine design protect the motor long-term.
The upside of the turbo, direct injection and CVT is excellent fuel economy. For an EX 2 wheel drive I am seeing 31-33 mpg regularly.
I haven't driven the LX, but it uses the legacy, non-turbo larger 4-cylinder.
Toyota RAV4 for me!
I switch to CRV from a Subaru Outback in 2015. The Subaru rides smooth like a much larger car. I will probably go back to Subaru or maybe Toyota.
Can someone explain to me how with all the room in the engine compartment with the 1.5 engine that Honda engineers
could not design a flat passenger side floor honda kills me
I thought there was a wrinkle in the passenger floor mat and was disappointed to find out there is a small ridge in that spot. Doesn't seem like good engineering. I have a 2019 CR-V Touring. It will probably never actually be an issue, but it just seems kind of weird.
@@michaelpoquette3182 it is when you got size 15 shoes
So then should we wait for the 2020 CRV model? You didn't specify.
My PERSONAL OPINION is HONDA should go WITH a 6 or 8speed auto and LOOSE THE TURBO. It is a GOOD SET-UP BUT FOR HOW LONG?
Try to WAIT and SEE if OIL DILUTION PROBLEM is RESOLVED FIRST.
Anyone else clearly see how much dust the screen attracts???
Once you go above the EXL trim the price is 30k for sure!
At that point why not look at other brands; specially with all the problems the turbo engine has had since 2017. Which by the way Honda has not resolved the issues, instead they have extended warranties to cover for the poor design of the turbo engine.
what are the other brands? I'm interested on nissan murano 2019
Om hayma murano is a waste, overpriced cross over. Soon to be phased out. Any crv before 2016 used is a good buy. I bought a cvr 2016 exl with navi amd honda sensing. Pretty nice car for under $20k with 29,000 miles
Om hayma before you buy murano try acura rdx 2015 to 2017 are excellent models; better than honda crv
Some of the other brands are Acura mdx or acura rdx. I already own a MDX 2011 and that is a true japanese built cross over with an amazing AWD system which has torque differential for either left and righ of front and back wheels. Very similar to audi AWD system. While MDX is a supercharged engine the current RDX has is a turbo charged engine still with AWD. Similar system but unique for each application. I would also look into toyota highlander AWD as well. I just bought a used CRV- EX with leather and navigation that has 29k miles. Bought it used because i find Honda turbo engine to not be reliable in the CRV. Clearly all the new CRV have a turbo engine; so i will not put my money on that type of engine!
The 2019 EX-L does NOT include navigation.
Jeremiah Alphonsus yeah I doesn’t I had a 2019 Honda CR-V EXL no navigation
I have the 2017 and would NOT recommend because there are too many issues with it. I got my recall work done, even though i was not experiencing the oil dilution problem but now my radio screen started to glitch out on it's own without even touching the screen. I saw videos on TH-cam with plenty of other people with the same problem. Seems like one thing gets "fixed" then another issue pops up. Stay away from this CR-V, from 2017-2019. I don't know what the 2020 will bring but I would not hold my breath. Better to get a Toyota or a Subaru perhaps. It's a shame because it is a decent ride otherwise.
giants22 I agree , I had a 2019 Honda CR-V it
Was built poorly and it got total it hated it thank god i have a RDX that was better
My Crv 2019 is with the 2.4 engine is great no problems
Does the CRV really get 27/33 mpg? Anyone? Thinking about buying one...
I got the CRV 2019 EX always get about 32 to 33 mpg highway and about 29 to 30 city
@@allsmartphonegames8449 Thanx! Do u ever go past 32-33 mpg on the hwy? (Like 37-42 mpg on the highway?)
@@MrRowdy14u If u drive about 68 to 70/mph with ECO mode ON probably can get about 35 or 36 highway.. I do drive without Eco mode and about 72 to 75mph usually get 32 to 33 mpg
@@allsmartphonegames8449 Thanks 😊 for the info! I'm driving a 2017 Nissan Rogue SL no problems great mgg...Not sure about which one to go for😮
Wouldn't touch this thing until Honda's proposed software fix for the engine is proven to actually fix the problem. Call me skeptical
I own a 2016 EXL with the 2.4 engine and i have owned turbo in the past with the Mazda CX-7 and i can assure you the turbos never have a long life. Engines are unreliable and they burn a lot of oil.
Impressive SUV, except the 1.5 turbo engine is a time bomb. You think a tiny 1.5 liter engine will last 200K miles, give me a break !! In addition, the oil dilution problem can't be solved by software fix. There are 3 factors contribute to the problem, all of them are design issues : 1) turbo charged means high compression ratio 2) direct fuel injection into the cylinder chamber 3) use of 0w20 oil, which is as thin as water.
Can you review a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
Deseo ver un Honda CR V. Para comprar, Necesito la direccion y el número de teléfono.vivo en Waterbury CT
I have that same car accept my daughter is trying to get my car to snap out of the oil change from Tampa Honda its alot of work.
No CVT for everything
McDonald has the best selling hamburgers. It doesn't mean they're the best.
That's ok for a review but the really bad issues I have heard about seem to never get mentioned
I really like SUV.Nice!!
You get a lot more luxury features on the turbo CX-5 models. Where’s the Ventilated seats? 360 Camera? Memory seats? Real wood? and that CVT? Yech
And fun to drive. Mazda has an advertising problem is the US. It's the top seller in Australia.
You need to give FULL INFORMATION when you make such claims. The Maxda CX-5 turbo requires PREMIUM fuel to operate at its best. It's also very pricey for the top of the trim level that you seem to be citing. Again, FULL information !
Einstein, it has "memory seats". It's irresponsible to make such accusations when you obviously don't know what you're talking about. I OWN a 2019 CR-V Touring. What CR-V model do you own ?
I guess my 2018 CRV-EX is supposed to smell like a rolling gas can.
Turbo engine + CVT = reliability issues down the road.
Add in direct injection for the trifecta.
Agree that’s why I returned my wife’s 18 CR V. Also the oil mixing with fuel issue.
See you were never around for the 1970’s turbos! Now they use synthetic oil and cast turbos. CVT has been around since 1980, down pat.
"In a memo sent to dealers, Honda’s manager of auto campaigns and recalls, Brad Ortloff, said oil in these engines could be diluted because of software settings or potential hardware failures. Some vehicles could experience “lack of power,” leading to cylinder misfires or engine noise." Consumer Reports
"But if the vehicles are stalling, as some owners have reported, this is a safety issue and Honda should conduct an official recall, which doesn’t expire.” Consumer Reports
@@lackyparker7799 You "returned it" did you? Like you returned a frying pan to Walmart? Hope you kept your sales slip ! Sounds fishy. Once again I have to seriously question the TROLLS that post on any article about the CR-V.
I like this SUV the Honda CR-V.
I wish Honda would add a full panoramic roof and an Asian LED fog lights.

eewww it still has that gross radio screen
I have the basic LX AWD and it makes it want/need to Upgrade automatically. For a 2019 brand new vehicle is unacceptable Way too simple/basic. Now, mechanically, compared to my traded 2017 Accord Sport the CR-V is WAY BETTER 😩😩😒😊👋🏼
1.5 turbo is there biggest mistake. Gas mixing into the motor is still happening with the 2019... stay away if you want your vehicle to last
tripod, use tripod...
I will be in the market for a new smaller SUV in the next 24 months. Honda: 1) oil dilution 2) battery problems 3) CVT..three strikes and Honda is out. The new Ford Escape has a three cylinder turbo?...NOPE! I think the new RAV4 will be the winner. Non turbo and non CVT
I have had Honda last 3 cars. But 2008 cry had raesrenf troubles Honda wouldn’t admit. Dealership said I was hearing things. Nope u lied. But other than that I loved everything about crab performance but not comfortable. Then was hit by illegal driver my airbags didn’t go off on side but that’s neither here not there. Honda Civic best little car I ever had still give up comfort in driver seat. But my mechanic bills was so good I like it. Honda has had good and bad. But I think I am going with another brand this time around. Don’t know yet. Oh biggest complaint I had with my civic was touch radio knobs I think they are just crazy bad. Hazardous. . .
I have doubts about both Honda and Toyota. Transmissions are problematic for both and since I keep my cars for 200000 miles I wont buy a turbo.

The little screen in the middle of this huuuuge border is the most ridiculous thing I have seen in a car since a long time !!!!!
