We just bought the CRV LX AWD Lunar Silver color version. Gorgeous looking CUV with the stock wheels. I didn't like the touch screen or wheels on the EX model or above. Reliable 2.4 liter motor with better gas millage and more performance. Traded up from a 2012 CRV LX AWD for this Beautiful muscular Machine. (no regrets)
Sunroof and more powerful stereo is what sells me on the EX. I have a 2008 EX, and like it so much, music is very important to me and a good factory stereo is great, and a sunroof is great for 3 seasons.. When mine gets old...350k /5 years from now, I will be buying another CRV.
Great video, Mike! The Honda CR-V has a pretty well lit cabin for the class. The exterior lighting looks super cool, too! I really like the new VOLVO-esk looking taillights and the very clean LED turn signal and daytime running lights up front! Keep up the great work, Mike! ;-) -DriveAndBeDriven "The Quest To Record The Best!"
Looks excellent. Honda nailed it for this generation CR-V. One thing I don't really understand is on the Civic, why they took the time to add LED tail lights, drls, license plate lighting, but use shitty incandescents for the Brake lights and turn signals. It's not like it could cost that much to add on all trims. Seems like such a stupid omission on an otherwise excellent car.
Marcus Vinicius, Yep.... I cannot wait until his daytime video of the CR-V. I also cannot wait until I can get my hands on one to review! -DriveAndBeDriven "The Quest To Record The Best!"
Thanks for the info. I have the 2017 CRV touring and couldn't figure out the interior lights to come on automatic when I open the door. Love my car had it a year and still learning new things.
Thanks for posting this, too many review vids only show the touring or ex-L version but not everyone has the money to burn for all that lol. Honda seems to have included lots of goodies for the base trim thankfully unlike years past
well this is good review for the lighting of this car mike..but this one is not highest trim level (Touring) which has the civic-like headlamp with gorgeous white led light...i really wanna see them in a video like this mike..i hope you can do another videl for the Touring trim level showing us about the lighting, thank you Mike 🖒
Hey Mike did you get around to doing the review of the 2017 Chevy spark that I asked about earlier???another great review love the new crv much improved
Thanks for posting this video. I'm picking up a new LX AWD in two weeks. Honda Sensing on the upper trims seems buggy from what I read on various forums, so I opted out. 18" wheels rode too stiff and are silly on a daily driver vehicle in this category. The 17" wheel LX version drove better when I test drove both trims back to back on two occasions. The only minor beef I have with the base trim is that the interior door panels seem a bit cheap. First world problem, though. It's too bad Honda doesn't sell an LX 1.5T in the USA, I would have paid for the turbo engine but did not want the other stuff you have to take with it.
I have purchased 2017 Honda CR-V exl. I have a green light shining on the gas petal every so often it blinks green then red. What is this can't find anything on about it??? Please Help!!!!
ThunderUp09 exactly that's why i got the LX nothing special on EX and above they offer too fancy which is useleas for me. Probably push start and remote start then thats it.
Mark Louie Adame that's what I said too except I really would like a sunroof tho but I hate that I have to go up a trim level with all that extra stuff just for a sunroof 😞
I bought a used 2017 crv lx, my question is does the back trunk open when you click the button or you have to manually open it? I'm asking cuz i think mine is broken not sure if it automatically opens by itself
Do you guys know if Lx and Ex have mufflers and other pipes made of the same rust resistant metal? Can it be that the more expensive Touring model has stainless steel mufflers and Lx model has regular ones?
I just bought one of these my question is why does the bar above the speedometer turn white and green at different points also and stormy weather it seems that it auto adjust the interior lights on the dash board.. is all this normal??
I see you found the answer to the green/white lights :) The interior lights dim to "night mode" when the light sensor does not pick up enough light. If the headlights are in "auto" mode they will turn on as well in low light.
the lights at night were my biggest complaint w my 2014. highbeams were high in the trees it was nuts i mean i wasnt looking for monkeys who the heck tests these cars and low beams i was lucky to see in front of me. this review makes the low lights seem better but the high beams still kinda weak. great review tho thanks

Please Honda Headquarters do answer why the 2017 all new CR-V sold in South Korea is full of rust inside it even if it is just sold since May of 2017. And you Honda should refund or exchange the rusty CR-V into the new One free of rust just like U.S.A.
I didn't like the wheels or touch screen either :( We just bought the LX AWD and it's perfect and lots of value for the money. Previous 2012 CRV LX owner. The ride with the 17 inch wheels are perfect!
who designed these led lights, they look awful, #1 they should have wider strip more visible all across the light #2 it should be positioned on the top not the bottom for better visibility....HONDA please fix it right away in next refresh.
+pablo Herasme It's cheaper on production costs to keep things standard on all trims. Plus LEDs are ultra-cheap anyway nowadays. The Toyota Corolla has LED headlights on all trim levels ever since 2014. And the new 2017 Corolla has a whole slew of safety features that are also standard on all trim levels. The same safety features on Honda cars cost $1,000 extra.
ya don't get it do us, it should be used to differentiate from the broke people models to the more higher end trim. How are you going to show how much money you shoveled in if your premium trim looks exactly like a base model.
Wow.. Did you see the awful looking dashboard at 7:36?? It is VERY confusing and is one of the worse dashboards I have ever seen.. Why can't Honda just make nice looking more traditional dashboard??
Doesn't look very confusing to me. I mean, there's big numbers to show how fast you're going, numbers to show how much miles the car has, and how much fuel is left in the tank. It tells you if you're on park, drive, reverse, or neutral. It even tells you what temperature it is outside. Just like a traditional dashboard, but more "computerized." It's the future. We all gotta deal with it. Quite frankly, some of these features are pretty handy.
Thank you. Finally someone does a night time review of how a vehicle lights up. Hardly anyone does that. Nice change.
Mike, I really appreciate your "at night" videos. You show us the car the way most people would not see until they lived with it for a few days.
Wow, the LED signatures are beautiful on this car.
I honestly wished more people would focus on the night features like you do. It helps when making a decision like this.
Love the large and noticeable turn signals, front and rear.
For a base model car it's pretty darn impressive with the features and the LED lights around
yup. the main difference is that the LX does not have the new turbo 4 engine.
A very nice car.
stockjonebills the Canadian model has the 1.5L T in the LX

Thanks Mike, just bought a new CRV here in Australia. Nice to see a night time preview.
Honda didn’t hold back on perfecting the CRV ❣️

Great job, Mike! Too often, base model vehicles aren’t thoroughly reviewed. Keep up the great work!
I really appreciate your night car lighting videos.
wow Honda has stepped uo their game in this segment
u should look up on the touring it is so much better honda has really improved themselves.
Great night video Mike! The Basic model looks great! 🚘🌜
Thank you for doing videos like these. I've always wanted to see a vehicle is like st night with their lights on. Thanks again.
For a base model, that is a lot of features! Thanks for the review!
Finally New look!!!
Thanks for watching and your feedback :)
the CARD is definitely my next choice, my '08 definitely with 16500 miles is still running great.
Awesome!!! Now, let's wait for the daytime video!!!
Marcus Vinicius, Yep.... I cannot wait until his daytime video of the CR-V. I also cannot wait until I can get my hands on one to review!

Very cool video. Thank you. I like how this Honda looks at night.
Good review Mike! it is unusual with night tests on cars and its lighting!
Thanks for the info. I have the 2017 CRV touring and couldn't figure out the interior lights to come on automatic when I open the door. Love my car had it a year and still learning new things.
Very nice review! Thank you for choosing the base model.
Thanks for posting this, too many review vids only show the touring or ex-L version but not everyone has the money to burn for all that lol. Honda seems to have included lots of goodies for the base trim thankfully unlike years past
Especially how this has the led accent lights in the front and back, and pretty nice alloy rims.
well this is good review for the lighting of this car mike..but this one is not highest trim level (Touring) which has the civic-like headlamp with gorgeous white led light...i really wanna see them in a video like this mike..i hope you can do another videl for the Touring trim level showing us about the lighting, thank you Mike 🖒
I'd also like to see the Touring trim at night
Thanks, great lighting review! Maybe you can do one for the Touring trim level too?
I want to see the Touring trim too...
Finally, more LED's, now lets hope they add the LED headlights on the LX soon (like the accord) ;p
Really hope incoming model of crv will include seat massage and interior light like bmw n merc
really good review on a great vehicle
Hey Mike did you get around to doing the review of the 2017 Chevy spark that I asked about earlier???another great review love the new crv much improved
I need this
Time to change my CR-V III. We love Honda in Russia.

we both got a 2017 honda crv it is the best
Thx Rene! I meant with all accessories options top out about $40k
Nice View at night ! Merci.

Nice lighting for an LX. Not sure where that falls on Hondas trim lines. But LEDs in and out need to be standard.
TJC450 ugh no they should not
The 2019 CR-V LX will be my dad's next car. (or RAV4 XLE)
I am addicted to crv
Very nice small SUV I took for a road test !!! But I wish would be a little more hp and turbo would have omega kick.
love your vids
Great job, looks nice, is that the cheapest Honda CRV?
great video
I have purchased 2017 Honda CR-V exl. I have a green light shining on the gas petal every so often it blinks green then red. What is this can't find anything on about it??? Please Help!!!!
please make a night video on mitsubishi outlander
If you turn the head lights on, does the screen turns darker from day to night light automatically?
Thanks for vid. What camera use in this video?
can you do a Honda civic hatchback in lunar silver as well in night time video pls?

I just bought a Honda CRV EX 2017. it does have vibration issue like 2015 model. check before buy.
Sam Chokshi must be just the EX. I have the AWD Touring and it's as smooth a butter.
Cool video, why are there so many Volkswagens in the back ground ?
The Honda and VW dealers are side by side. Usually there is more space to film on the VW side.
I bought a used 2017 crv lx, my question is does the back trunk open when you click the button or you have to manually open it? I'm asking cuz i think mine is broken not sure if it automatically opens by itself
Lx is good enough
No need for anything higher. LX is loaded from the boot.

Most likely not. I do have an EXL 2018 during the day and I show some of the lighting.
It's very nice.

what are the interior bulb numbers? I know they are wedge type.
Do you guys know if Lx and Ex have mufflers and other pipes made of the same rust resistant metal? Can it be that the more expensive Touring model has stainless steel mufflers and Lx model has regular ones?
I am fairly sure they are all the same.
Ales good!

Them running lights can be headlights
any chance you can do the ex... please
I'll Try :)

Agree! Damm too expensive for a CRV, i saw one at a dealer top out to $40k, get a lexus for that price
The MRSP (list price) for the most expensive CR-V is $33,695, plus $940 destination charge.
are the brake lights led?
what camera are you using?
I don't like the black door handles on the lx if only they could be the same colours as the car
BTW, what type of camera are you using?
Sony AX100
What color is this?
base model 5 seaters?

Buying an LX for sure. EX has ugly rims and nonsense touch screen. New engine = new problems, I'll stick with the tried and proven
I didn't like the wheels or touch screen either :( We just bought the LX AWD and it's perfect and lots of value for the money. Previous 2012 CRV LX owner. The ride with the 17 inch wheels are perfect!
kadie1414 I like the EX rims. Sportier. To each his own. But all the extras you get on the EX and above, outshine the LX by a long shot.
who designed these led lights, they look awful, #1 they should have wider strip more visible all across the light #2 it should be positioned on the top not the bottom for better visibility....HONDA please fix it right away in next refresh.
Honda has no sense of hierarchy. LEDs on base model? c'mon now.

It's 2017, cars should have LEDs on base models.. Look at the current gen Rogue and Corolla, both have LED lights on base models since 2014
