  • The 2024 Honda CR-V mid-size SUV is finally here, and it's looking to shake-up the Mid-size SUV segment. Now, that's easier said than done thanks to the dominance of the Toyota RAV4, but it has a good chance with the addition of a hybrid powertrain.
    As per its previous generation, the CR-V is also available with a turbo-petrol engine, but the attention is firmly on its petrol-electric counterpart, which has its work cut out for it against the all-conquering RAV4 Hybrid.
    But, of course, there's more to the new-generation CR-V story than just what's under the bonnet. In this expert review, CarsGuide Managing Editor Tim Nicholson puts the family SUV through its paces at its Australian media launch, to find out if it really has takes to make buyers think twice about buying a RAV4. If it's to do so, it better be really good.

    • @DaniilBalkans-jh2rw
      @DaniilBalkans-jh2rw 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      CVT is rubbish, there is no driving, reliability or financial advantage of a CVT transmission over a standard torque converter or dct, except for maybe saving $5 on fuel each tank, at a great expense of drive quality, power & CVT reliability & future replacement cost of CVT transmission?. Driven 1.5L turbos with CVT carrying passengers, up inclines or overtaking on freeways, & engine & CVT rev out & scream for power which is slow coming & totally absent in many acceleration manoeuvres?. At least the torque converter will kick down in the gears to find the required power, impossible to do for a CVT?. These are all modern 4 cylinder engines & fuel economy is virtually totally based on your driving alone?.

      As this reviews shows, the 2024 CR-V e:HEV is a very accomplished hybrid SUV, so it's definitely worth considering.
      As far as how much money you can get for your current CR-V, you'll get more if you sell it privately. Check out CarsGuide.com.au's used-car listings to find out how much equivalent vehicles are asking for.

    Honda continue to make interesting cars overseas; typically we get the trash models here. Where is the new Integra or the TLX? The CRV is still definitely a mid sized SUV. The Pilot or the Passport are the full sized SUVs and the Ridgeline utility are vehicles that Honda sell in the USA that for some reason only known to themselves they don't bring here.

    It’s now late March 2024 and I have not seen even one new CRV on the road, parked, in a car park etc. I’ve seen a few new HRV and ZRVs . They are desperate to sell them, offering all sorts of incentives. Is it the fact that they’re not Japanese built( built in Thailand) contributing to this, I’m not sure.They’re very successful outside Australia.The reviews are all favourable. If Honda don’t sell many of these, particularly the hybrid, they won’t survive in Australia any longer perhaps.

SO thailand knows how to build. I reckon the CR-v is the most stylish suv on the market apart from the Volvos

    I personally prefer Honda over Toyota, but Honda is way off on their pricing versus features in their vehicles. Let’s compare the CRV with the RAV4. I can buy a Toyota RAV4 XSE or Limited anywhere from $42,000-$44,000.. With that I get a level three technology package that includes a full panoramic sunroof, 360° camera, much larger infotainment center, wireless, Apple CarPlay, a digital rearview mirror, and better mpg!
    I thought Honda was just playing catch-up with the competition, so I waited and waited. And now we see the redesign of the Honda Accord. What were they thinking? That thing is just straight up ugly! Also, the first fully electric vehicle coming out, called the Honda prologue. But you didn’t know that they actually collaborated with Chevy to make that vehicle. Exact same base and construction as the new electrified equinox. No thanks!

    The reviewer is trying hard to find positives about this average SUV. Honda seem to have the " Take it or LEAVE it" approach with no option list and missing vital tech at these price points doesn't look good. Also $60000 for 140kw for a non premium brand is a joke. Nowadays, you can travel 10000km easy in 7-8 months. So that isnt impressive. Honda's problem is they are very inconsistent throughout the years.

Bare base model starting at 45k is ridiculous, when you can buy a mid/ top spec Hyundai, Kia, Toyota, Mazda, Mitsubishi/Nissan, Subaru mid size SUV for even less $$, or even top of the range GWM Haval + GT or MG hs or zst, even newcomers Mahindra, SAIC & SsangYong?. 10k cheaper & you get top specs, they are worth a look also, they are good quality car manufacturers of new SUVs also now?.
