The 2023 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD Is A Handsome Redo For A Very Popular SUV
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- When you consistently sell over 300,000 units in America every year, an automaker must take caution when it comes time for a redesign. The #HondaCRV is a great example of this, now in its 6th generation, the new #Honda #CRV takes a very handsome but conservative approach for this 2023 model year. While Honda expects the #CRVHybrid to take a much larger piece of the sales pie, the regular #CRVEX and #CRVEXL will be in showrooms this month at a base price of just over $31k before destination charges.

Happy Monday guys! Sorry for the change in posting for this video. At the last minute, Honda asked media to move the embargo end date from 8/30 to today at 9am EST. We will also be driving the new CR-V Hybrid on 10/12 so stay tuned for our full coverage on the top of the line, Sport Touring version sometime next month! We're hoping we get a much quicker acceleration run with the Hybrid version as well.
You stated "No Over the Air Updates"
I seen another pic of the head unit that showed a "Update" selection on the screen.
Can you please verify?
Like your BOOTS what brand and name of them? Sorry I went off the topic.
@@georger2610 Let the letter N stand for the fule economy and the letter S stand for the towing. Plz reoly
No wonder! I saw on CarPlay the calendar app was showing Friday the 5th, meaning this was filmed back in August 5th!!
@@HardyOh Yes
I mostly use my horn to honk at neighbors who are outside when I drive by, so having a “friendly-sounding” horn is actually a bonus. 😂
Overall still a great car, just don't understand why Honda cheaped out on certain things like the rear halogen turn signals, base wheels, and no handles to release the rear seat in the cargo area.
Cost cutting, they don’t want to increase the price too much.
@@blackwhirlwind1245 bro in Canada this thing is a few hundred less than a amzda cx5 that has a more power full engine full halogen and led lights and more interior comforts lmao
@@blackwhirlwind1245 They wanted to cut costs AND raise the price. And that's what they did.
@@cgatito3528 everything is going up in price, especially this gen CRV does have something that last gen didn’t, which is 9 inch screen with updated software and wireless Apple CarPlay, and better sound system, a price increase is expected. But I’m disappointed that it still doesn’t have 360 camera, HUD, and cool seats.
^Among those reasons it’s probably to not interfere w the Acuras. A lot may disagree but I think they executed this gen well. Luxury cars sellin less + this gaining more power & equipment like sunroof standard= too close to the RDX. Since the 18 accord I’ve noticed they’re matching the trim levels to their other products n with that change also attempting to match the features. Fr a missed opportunity but if the crv got the “missing features” but I’d be a bigger shame if the RDX was canceled by adding all that
Great video as always. I’ll never understand why someone in the car company decide for downgrade to the in incandescent turn signals in 2022 and ESPECIALLY when previous generation had LED ones. Like why for the love of God.
And yea I like the wheels the previous Gen had for the EXL
Aka the vw atlas
Someone with an MBA figured they could save a few dollars per vehicle. 🤷🏻♂️
Honda does a lot of dumb, cheap things. My Fit has no keyless entry. Absurd. You had to upgrade to the Sport model for keyless entry, which was quite a bit more because it offered alloy wheels, spoilers/body kit, an MP3 radio, and a few other things.
@@sidehide1 because people will keep buying Honda and Toyota because of their reputation. They're great cars no doubt but I don't think people are keeping them for 300,000 miles anymore.
I loved the black wheels a few years ago but now I love the standard silver wheels. Car looks cleaner with them imo. Thanks for the review!
Gloss black was never good looking, just a bad trend like shiplap in a house. Standard silver rims will always look good if the design is nice.
My 2017 exl has rear charge ports and they take it away in the 2022. When other companies are adding ports everywhere
Hopefully Honda reads your comments for feedback! A lot of folks pointing out Honda cheapening out on things like the incandescent rear signals and removing the rear seat release handles in the cargo area. Last gen had these things.
C'mon Honda, I was rooting for you... we were all rooting for youuu! Learn something from this 🙏
they are pushing you to the crv sport touring...its a business. think a little
@@aceyohan1217 watch your mouth
Guys the quality of the video is super high quality, you always bring reviews that are straight forward and very informative , again thank you for your professional reviews.
After seeing the first look video, I decided to get the Mazda CX-5 Premium Plus. So glad I did not wait. A nicer interior, cooled seats, and the single dial infotainment system instantly became my favorite infotainment of all time. Plus my Mazda inline 4 with 6 gears sounds so much better!
Lol nope.. crv is way better still…

Honda fanboy.
Heck, I’m one myself, but the Mazda honestly looks like a more luxurious car than this.
Good choice on the Mazda. Almost everything about the Mazda is better except fuel economy and interior space.
you are smoking crack buddy LOLOL
It looks good but I don’t know how I feel about Honda using the same dash for all their cars.
Neither do we! We're hoping the next Gen Pilot has a different dash with a much larger screen.
@@theredline Same
The dash definitely screams premium and mature
@@naveenthemachine It doesn’t have much character that’s what I dislike, they used it on a few of their other cars. Ugh, all new cars look the same! (They don’t, but this time they do).
@@naveenthemachine how does it screams premium ?
Thank you for always including the details we want to know like how the door sounds and cooled seats. No one else talks about these…
For the last 12 years it was CRV > Rav4. Now I can confidently say Rav4 > CRV. Honda gotta step up to the competition imo
Neither car is better than the other, they both have pros and cons. If you want a little better gas milage, etc., you chose the Rav4. But in no uncertain terms is the Rav4 as quiet as the CRV, nor is it as roomy, nor the ride quality. The list of differences goes on and on. You pick based on what you want and need the most and what cons you cannot overcome. Both are the best in their class.
I miss the k24. Absolutely bulletproof engine. Yes it had less power, and earlier versions weren't gdi, but it was dead reliable, no turbo, and could move.
This fetish for small engines with turbos to get 2-3 more mpg and stimulate bigger engines is disturbing. I'll hang into my k24 and j35 accords as long as I can. 😔
The 2016 Crv with the K24W series n/a with the cvt was direct injection and had oil burning issues
@@FB6K24Z7 I meant without gdi 😔
My 2018 accord sport 1.5t has 105k miles with no issues whatsoever still runs strong and smooth both for the engine and CVT gets 31mpg average
@@Smileydudekxy make sure u change the CVT fluid @ after 100k.
@@ganzonomy gdi is direct injection sir gdi stands for gasoline direct injection and the k24W is direct injection
Very nice update and much better looking than the last generation. Kudos Honda
06:35 the floor that doesn’t stay flat is an absolute deal breaker for someone who wants to car camp. I am glad I bought a 2022 CRV hybrid and didn’t wait for this. Feels like a terrible disappointment to me.
Big time deal breaker
That 0-60 time makes this the car we all scream at on the on-ramps
Put your family in there with some luggage and towing….can it even reach 60 then? Lol
This is a race car next to my 150 hp Tacoma.
Good to see it still has a (temporary?) spare. And vastly superior ergonomics. Safe and easy to operate SUV.
Any update on when the Media drive will be for the new Civic TypeR.
Hey! We like your TH-cam channel name! 😮 and yes, we will be driving the new Type R in Nov! Stay tuned.
Happy they started you off with the lower trim model not everyone likes to throw down the money for the top if the line
10:48 you can actually remove the car image with the sensors to make the screen bigger. If the sensors detect something it will show on the corner of the screen in a small icon so that it wont hide your camera as much.
Great video as always.
You were out in my neck of the woods, Great review as always!
Great video. I got this exact car a few months ago. I wanted the sport touring but I needed a car right then and they just weren’t available. It would’ve taken months. It’s a great car though. Very happy with it.
It's unfortunate that Honda isn't really thinking of how to offer their customers the best bang for their buck. How can an almost fully loaded model not have rear USB ports? And how is it that other car manufacturers offer ventilated seats and a panoramic sunroof, but Honda refuses to do so? If sales drop further behind the Rav4, then Honda will have done it to themselves. I believe overall that the CRV is the superior compact suv, but feature wise Honda is really falling behind the competition.
The exterior is a big improvement, overall a nice looking vehicle. 0 -60 is abysmal, however, ought to be fun merging onto the highway. Great review
Why is the previous model faster with the same engine ?
@@Jimmyjohns481 0-60 isn’t the end all be all. Plus when you merging onto a highway you aren’t traveling at 0 mph. So 0-60 times are irrelevant when taking about merging. 30-50 or 50-70 that is measured by car magazines is more realistic.
Cant imagine what the 0-60 when the car is full: 5 people plus 5 luggages. 13-14 seconds??
@@theyadmire511 many highways have stoplights on the entrance ramp for merging, not irrelevant.
@@Jimmyjohns481 lol. I still drive a 2007 slow as molasses F150. I have zero problems driving around.
And avoiding accidents by having power? lol. Are you racing trains? 😂
The Hybrid version will check all the boxes that I need. Looks amazing to me !
I love everything about mine - got it two weeks ago.
Another great review. Well done.
The honk really got me 😆 🤣 😂
Does the 2023 CRV have Over the Air Updates?
I saw a Update selection on a pic for the head unit.
Looks nice. Does the EX-L have Navigation?
Still not offering 360 camera in 2022 is disappointing, only Honda and Subaru are the only ones left that doesn’t offer 360 camera, that parking sensor screen needs to display 360 camera view.
Waiting for the CRV hybrid review! Hope it comes out this week
I love the “automatic door lock after walk away” feature on my 2017. Hopefully the 2023 has it. I have yet to see this feature on any other SUV. Where Honda messed up on the 2023 is the infotainment screen - it needs to be better integrated better into the dashboard.
I'm glad you mentioned it because I've had my 2023 CRV for two weeks and I thought it was locking automatically so I went outside to my car just now and discovered I had to enable the walk away lock feature. It's on the steering home button.
was looking forward to this review...and now I realize the hybrid version will have to save this CR-V Generation, bc that 0-60 time was abysmal. That's about the same speed as a Prius.
What equipment did you use for the intro shot? Looks great.
A camera.
Great review, thank you Sofyan. I find the exterior has the look of an amalgam of other cuv's. I find like the Civic, the designs alternate with each generation. One gen is out there and then the next is more conservative. I find this gen of CR-V is more plain and basic than the last generation. The interior is definitely an improvement from the last generation. I found the fake plastic wood on the last generation was awful. A definite step up for the good. I continue to find it funny when reviewers (and there are so many of them) talk about the dash being soft or not. Not sure why anyone is touching the top of the dash. ;) I look forward to your review on the hybrid.
No 360 camera! Dealbreaker!!!
@6:50 is that Honda Ridgeline in the background? Looks beefier and different?
That horn... The 9th gen Accord had the same problem. I bought a kit from college hills Honda with the Odyssey horns.
Now I have proper horns again!
Ah another victim of the Odyssey horn scam, interesting!
@@MrWelfarehater ??? The 9th gen had terrible horns.
Will inventory continue to be an issue? What do you think the dealer markups will be?
They'd be zero if people would stop paying them.
Nice review, but Honda missed on this update. Too bad they chose to eliminate more affordable trim levels.
Right! The EX used to be the top trim now it’s the base
The car is great! but it's a little under power. I think 20hp more will make it more appealing.
The backup camera not taking up the whole screen is super disappointing.
Great review 👍
At first glance, I noticed a big similarity to a Volvo, then you mentioned the same thing.
I really like the light-colored interior. In Canada, Honda only offers a black interior 🫤
Looking forward to your Hybrid review ✌️
Any idea what's the status of the hybrid driving video? I had heard it was coming out 10/12 (today)?
Manufacturers can’t supply current
models let alone new ones ! Why do they even bother introducing them ?
I don't understand Honda's logic for limiting the hybrids to the Sport models. Very disappointed in this direction. The pricing also went too high. Wheel design is boring. I have a 2020 Hybrid Touring but can't see much advantage to upgrading to this one. Great review as always.
Good job guys ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏 HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE
I just bought a white one of these and I love it. I traded my 2020 CRV on it with less than 3,000 miles. I live close to everything I need and fly when I travel.
do these have oil dilution and transmission problem too
Awesome review.
Glad they made it a bit more boxy, more upright yet planted. Hybrid's the one I'd get.
when crv 5 came out, it makes crv 4 and previous version looks so outdated. but for this one...nah...it is indeed looks great ..but it does not really give that superior looks and yet, still side by side with crv 5, crv 5 still looks great and as of different variants instead of previous version.
8:40 I had to rewind many times just to hear that thunder loud horn!
You said revised version of the 1.5 liter engine. In what way or did I miss something? Thanks!
My dad got one of the original CRVs with a 5 speed (2001 I think), sold it a few years ago but it’s still driving around to this day in Hawaii somewhere. This looks like a great visual upgrade to previous model but not especially innovative, I think the Sport and Sport Touring will definitely be the ones to get.
Was a little underwhelmed with the changes to this model. Thanks for such an in-depth review!
Ditto, seeing it on the dealer lot it was just kind of blah.
please do an indept review of the all so popular 2023 Kia Sportage !
How is the longevity on the Honda CVT Transmission (cost to own). I am leery about this type of transmission vs. an automatic transmission.
Yep, I won't buy one.
Looks like in 2022 Honda decided to keep the CRV as an underwhelming option in the market.
Pathetic slow engine
More expensive with less features.
And it looks like a generic suv that you'd see in gta 5
It’ll sell tho
CRV was never meant to be exciting. Just an affordable family vehicle that checks the boxes for most. We opted to get the Mazda CX-5 in this segment, no regrets.
Cvt? Why not an ECVT?
OR JUST A REGULAR TRANSMISION?
I'm disappointed that it has no cargo space in the rear area with the tire, like the passport and pilot.
theyre making progress with the screen size but they need to increase it by a couple more inches and make the bezels thinner.
Eagerly waiting for the Hybrid Drive review. When do we get to see that?
I saw this becoming available but purchased a 2018 exl model and the reason why is because I feel like the interior in the new one doesn’t have its own character like the last model was. The body style didn’t appeal to me as much as the old one either. My 2018 model however has pull handles in the cargo area and the seat lay basically flat. Just my opinion though. I wish honda would have done it’s own special twist with this one and left this look to the HRV
Great channel and review as always! I’m loving Honda and it’s new styles. I’m waiting for the 2023 Honda Pilot, dealership is already asking for deposit😅. -Luan & Evelyn
Y’all kill me with the screen complaints. What do you want? - a big screen TV in the dash.
The 1.5L engine it's too small for this car.
Honda definitely need to move for bigger and stronger 2.5L engine like Toyota Rav4 or Mazda CX5
Thanks for the great review.
hopefully the sport and Sport Touring will have a better performance.
Just use 2 liter turbo.
I wish reviewers would include the side and frontal impact results on their reviews.
A lot of times those results aren’t out yet.
I think this car is too new and hasn’t even been crash tested yet.
When these reveiws are made those tests haven't been done yet
I was about to trade my 2018 accord for one of these but I found this new one so disappointing. Will get a Nissan rogue for same money. More powerful engine, 360 camera. Pano roof, rear charge ports etc.
Are you going to try the Rouge with the new turbo engine?
The fake shifts hurt acceleration since the flow of torque gets momentarily interrupted.
It looks nicer than the previous model but it's not just slow but dangerously slow.
I am in the market to replace a 2016 CR-V, and I will buy the Sport Touring only if it is reasonably fast.
I've see other videos that showed the seat release in the cargo area.
I personally like the last exterior design better than this. Interior is much better this time around tho.
But the push button electronic gear selection is gone, the panoramic sunroof is gone, the almost fully digital instrument cluster is gone and the led turn signals, gone too
DID THEY FIX THE STOP/START ISSUES WHERE THEY DON'T RESTART?????????
I love the new boxy look, you are right prevoous look was frompy.
What's with folding the rear seat? It looks so awkward, meanwhile did the last gen have releases in the cargo bay?
I believe so, last gen has LED rear turn signal, handle to fold down rear seats, and flat loading floor.
I thought CRV stands for compact recreational vehicle. That's why the first two generations came with a full size spare tire in the back and a picnic table in the trunk
He quoted the original vehicle release name that was translated from Japanese. The are at least two interpretations floating on the Internet.
It's a dumb acronym that can mean anything. Crusty Republican Voter, etc.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH lol
That was fastest acceleration - 9 seconds 0-60!😵💫 The dash layout and material looks economical at best!😝 The 2023 CR-V look like the current Pilot shrunken down! The plastic wheel well cladding make it look even cheaper too! Good job, Honda!😬
Harry you coward
Actually, excellent job Honda. The red version is beautiful, drives smoothly, very quiet, the interior feels closer to upscale, I can put 6 suitcases in the back cargo area with the back seat up, love the stick over the push button shifter on my former 2021 Passport, the seats are comfortable for long drives.
can you pre-order a Hybrid Sport trim with dual zone climate control?
Honda knows its core customers well and they deliver lots of value for the money. I've owned five of their vehicles and still drive one today, a 2018 Accord Sport.
How do you like the Accord? Thinking of trading my 5-series for a 2019 Sport that I saw the other day at a dealer lot. Either that or a 2020 Cadillac CT4-V that was parked right next to it. Kind of leaning toward the Accord for reliability but really liked the RWD aspect of the Cadillac.
But ---when someone is spending Over 30 grand on a SLOW CAR ---who gives a F------k about Value or features
@@Stressless2023 Accord a great car except for the CVT transmission in the 1.5T. Get the Sport 2.0T with the 10 speed automatic.
Does the EX-L come standard with the blind spot monitoring and the rear cross traffic alert?
Yes indeed
Great video and helped me to not buy a 2023 CRV since Honda cheaped out. Going to look at 22 & 21 today instead.
Why no talk on missing engine hood insulation...first sign of cost cutting with the whole vehicle.
They said they don’t have the demand for the features everyone wants, when really they just are being cheap.
Very Nice Bro! Get Good People!
The back looks like a BMW X3. It looks nicer then the HRV too. It seems a lot of these car companies are still having to deal with supply change issues when they’re releasing new vehicles.
What are the safety features? Front, back dofes collision prevention,blind dpot esrminh ryc
The Honda full digital gauges have black out issues, and is why imo an analog set of basic gauges with a helper screen was the best solution. It's blacked out on my 21 Pilot with only 27k miles on it. Imagine how many of these screens across all brands will be failing after 10+ years, and is a safety issue.
So I have a 22 civic sport which has a partial digital screen. I shouldn’t have issues with that? Good thing I didn’t go for the touring since that has a full digital screen.
Good luck getting one of these at sticker price from your local Stealership ! My stealer has a 5k markup (market adjustment) for any hybrid
Hmm...same engine that had / or still has the oil dilution issue?
Does this engine have exhaust VTEC?
The EX-L trim should have a power rear seat option. And better looking wheels. The engine should be a 2.5 L turbo 4 cylinder.
Looks good !
9.1 seconds?
That's borderline unsafe in 2022. Why??
Disagree, Tiguan looks from the side but i like it .
First CR-V that i like inside out .
I like when you don't wear sunglasses ( being picky ) but you make a better connection with us .
Btw you are one if not the best reviewer .
They offer a big sunroof and cool seats in the pilot
Honda really missed the mark on the HR-V and CR-V. How does the Civic have a full digital cluster but the HR-V doesn’t? Kia is killing it in tech and styling.
Look up Kia and Hyundai's Theta engine reliability, you may change your mind about giving hard earned money that doesn't last. I agree though, Kia/Hyundai has fantastic looking designs the past what decade now?
Honda sells around 350,000 CRVs annually, apparently Honda is doing something right.
@@MrWelfarehater your point? That was the last couple of years when the benchmark was having Apple CarPlay, and driver assist features. It’s 2022 and they’re going backwards. Not full LED rear, no wireless CarPlay, no all digital dash. All things that the new civic has and it’s cheaper.
@@trekkie14901 the point is that Honda's target demographic comes out in full force with their purses buying these vehicles. Although I happen to like the refresh, not a big fan of the CRV. I owned a 2009, traded it for a much more exciting Mercedes E350.
@@MrWelfarehater I’m just saying they seem to be going backward when it comes to technology. Plus I test drove the new HR-V a couple weeks ago. That thing is god awfully slow. For as slow and unresponsive as it was, it should be getting more than 30 mpg
It’s okay, but I see nothing in it to make us swap out our ‘17 EX although wireless CarPlay would be a nice feature. If a panoramic roof were available, that might be worth at least considering an upgrade in a few years.
This car/trim should’ve gotten full led head and tail lights, better wheels and a conventional automatic transmission like the rav4 for example. If that was the case then I’d instantly get one in the gas version plus their more leg and cargo room which is nice without a sloping tailgate. If Toyota somehow ever makes the rav4 bigger than I’m definitely going for that, s Rory Honda 😅
Silver wheels 235/60 R18 seems like a great choice for a crossover. The color is definitely better than black, IMHO.
