They cost less than a RAV for the same general trim level and not by only a couple hundo.

Especially when in USA you guys can get RAV4 and CX-5 with 2.5l NA gasoline and a conventional torque converter AT. Where I live, Japan, only Mazda still offers that. I really hope new CX-5 offers more trunk. Fortunately there is still CX-8 that is a great SUV. The only SUV that fits all my requirements: standard AT, good engine, AWD and usable trunk. New Forester will be 1.8T soon, RAV4 comes with a CVT in Japan and smaller engine.

You hardly touched base on the oil dilution issue. Huge problem. What did Honda do to fix the issue in the next model years? Also what is the downsize of a turbo rather than a naturally aspirated engine???? There have been many who have said this engine will not last as long as Honda's other naturally aspirated engines of the past. Also, the shifting sounds heard in the cabin, were these artificial sounds put in the cabin by Honda so it sounds like a standard transmission? Also some buyers are using the CRV to haul small RVs. Pros or negatives on hauling with a CVT transmission ? I still own a 2009 3rd generation CRV which I bought new and have had so little problems with it that I continue to drive it. I would not buy this new generation with the Turbo. Makes the engine do double the workload in small displacement and thus will wear out the engine prematurely. Also the oil dilution issue is a problem and I have yet to hear from Honda what they have done to rectify it. Software is not it. It was a manufacturing defect with the cylinder displacement. Honda has not come clean.

I think the seats are one of the reasons to buy the car, very supportive and extremely comfortable at the same time. ...haven’t experienced anything better anywhere near it’s price range

Jeff, this car is excellent. You don't have good taste in vehicles. That's the problem.

I wonder how he's going to make this interesting. Enter, Pre-Postal scream... Damn near ended up with coffee all over my desk. Love it... Thank you.

The random humor is necessary and gold in your videos lol

According to Scotty Kilmer KZread Channel the newer 2017 - 2020 Honda Cr-v are Lemons.

So tell me what I buy, Rav has fuel tank issues and package problems, crv is lemon, cx 5 less cargo not fuel efficient, nisaan cvt breaks down, so all in all I don't buy anything because everything is shit.

7:11 dealers describing sport mode increasing the speed of the car they're trying to sell

*CR-V is looking pretty compelling, I must say. The interior doesn't suit me as much as I want it, though. It's more my taste than anything else* 😂👍🏻

I’m stuck if to buy the CR-V or RAV4

Your reviews keep getting better. So much personality in each one

He said “rahv 4” lol! This channel…I love it.

Sport mode is amazing, wow!

How is the AWD? Does it actually work or is it like the 3(?) prior generations where the rear wheels do nothing?

I wanna hear more about the oil delution issues the crvs been having

That was only an issue with 2018’s if I’m not mistaken.

who dislikes ur videos ???? I don’t even want a CRV but ur review style is incredible I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. 10/10 Mr. Geese

When is he going to be a host on Top Gear? Solid 69/10 review.

“That was sport mode!!!”

@savagegeese can you elaborate on the oil dilution issue? I’m on the fence of getting a civic sport. Love the channel, keep it up my dude!

Best Car reviewer in the game hands down! The 5’13” killed me too 😂

Having a Honda Civic and Ridgeline, I pick the Mazda CX5.

Wow, I know it's the underbody, but that's a lot of rust.

I’m dead when they opened the back door to look at the rear seat and you see my man crying lol 😂 I love this Channel

I'm leasing a 2017 Honda CR-V Touring Canadian version and it has all the bells and whistles like panoramic sunroof, heated leather wrapped stirring wheel, 3 stage heated back seats but the only thing I wish it had was the fuel efficiency part of the RAV4. Once my lease is up I'll be taking a look at the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid or the RAV4 Prime

Can you review the Honda passport?

That Honda L15 Turbo is by far my favorite engine for a 4 cylinder that's below 2 liters.

@@ryadhasanahmed5443 Honda has made updates and had recalls on the Honda's equipped with the 1.5l. The Civic, Accord, CR-V has the 1.5t the Accord and CR-V has VTEC and the Civic SI as well but it isn't that noticeable since it's turbocharged. And the 1.5l as the engine itself has been on sale for years especially from the earlier years from the Honda Fit.

WORST ENGINE EVER

My mom was looking to get a SUV since she needs to carry a lot of things for work. Our options in the price range were the cx5, rav4, and the crv. We settled on the CRV for basically the main points you outlined. The easiest way I broke it down was, the CRV has the most space, most comfort. The CX5 is more sporty, less space, slightly more expensive with less standard features. The RAV4 is just outdated, less standard features, less space than the CRV, no android auto was a huge killer for day to day use, the only upside to going rav4 would be reliability and maintenance. We ended up going with the CRV because of its overall package and usability. There wasn't enough a reason in tradeoffs to go with the other 2 options over the CRV. It is extremely good as a comfortable daily driver. We got the 2018 ex-L trim which was $35k canadian and I truly believe it is worth that price. The only real issue we have with the car is the outdated infotainment. From the factory, it is just slow and laggy. We only use the android auto in it, so its kind of set and forget with everything else but it would have been great if honda put the new accord infotainment into this refreshed crv. It is the only downside of this car. If you want sportiness, go CX5. You want reliability, go RAV4. You want all rounder, go CRV.

Mark, would you consider adding some basic headlight testing procedures to your reviews? Even getting your opinion on the output would be awesome.

6:32....oil dilution ...not fuel dilution. Gas drips down into the oil...future disaster waiting to happen. I love Honda, but I won't buy one of their 1.5 turbo engines. Oil dilution will kill the engine years down the road. Purchased a 2019 Rav4 instead.

Honda needs that 0-20 to water down to a -5-10 oil to get there fuel efficiency numbers where they want them. I have a feeling the 1.5 will do ok in the accord and civic but the CRV is going to be the downfall of the 1.5 turbo

Really wish they still offered the 2.4 naturally aspirated. That thing is bulletproof. The 1.5T tends to be trouble.

I don't find the oil dilution to be a make or break issue, myself. I do see it becoming a problem for the average soccer dad who only changes his oil 4 months after the dash says 0% oil life.

Really appreciate you showing the bottom of the vehicle - something I have not seen in other reviews.

Finally, you took my advice and switched to decaf. Now Honda is here to soothe your need for speed. Thank you, CR-V.
