I upgraded from my 2011 Toyota Rav 4 to the 2020 Honda CRV and its like heaven for me! Feels very safe, very comfortable ride, great trunk especially now that you can make it flat with that little lift. The auto correct and advanced cruise control is a life saver
I purchased an LX AWD yesterday for my wife. After driving Jeep Liberty for 12 years she is ecstatic about the vehicle. I am 6' 3" 235 lbs and am very comfortable in both the front and rear seats. Ours is Red with light gray interior. We did include a 100,000 mile warranty into the deal. Our friends have owned 4 of these CRV's. The one they are currently driving has 150K miles with no issues except routine maintenance. I'll be happy with that.

Congrats! Crv should be a big upgrade over the Liberty.
I have the 2019 CR-V LX. Hint: when you put on Sport mode, first take out the Eco Mode then 20 seconds later shift to Sport. 😀👋🏼
As a Crv owner, 2017, I love it. Best vehicle I ever owned. A few things to nit pick over: interior lights are hard to find,and they're dim. My civic is way better in this area. Another thing, the fan has buttons,not a knob. My civic has a knob for the fan. Way easier to use. But overall quality is superb.

I own a 05 crv bought new now has 170k mi very reliable. Definitely will buy another crv again.
Its been a week and I really enjoy it. Mine is a 2.4l petrol ex model. Just a bliss to drive and i dont have any issue with the acceleration. Its fast enough unlike what these reviewers say. Very spacious which is a well known fact. Infotainment is good, not as bad as it was portrayed. Interiors are plush and seats are comfortable. Exhaust could have been designed well and infotainment should have lesser bezel. I don't find any other drawbacks as of now and its not only a family car, but a sporty car with good sports mode and paddle shifters which works surprisingly good and this was not mentioned by any of the reviewers. Its just the best and go for it, if you are confused whether to go or not. You won't regret!!

Thanks. I thought I’d hate it but I test drove it four times and loved it more each time. The reviews are good but can only take you so far. I test drove the RAV4 twice and hated it both times - it’s a heavy, loud car with an oppressive interior, not to mention Toyota salespersons are disinterested in selling a car. They’re very “Toyota’s sell themselves.”
I have a 2006 Honda CRV. I love it. One of the features it has is a small shelf right in front of the passenger seat to place some items such as phones, sunglasses, etc. this is something the Toyota Highlander has. For a 2006, I’m surprised it’s there, and they should definitely bring it back.
I just got Honda CR-V 2020 Sport Made in Canada it is a lovely Sonic Gray color
I love Honda. I just purchased a 2019 Accord LX and absolutely love it. I think this CR-V is awesome. I like the darkened housings and the wheels on that Touring trim level. One big thing I HATE is the auto start/stop. It sucks just like on every car. It only saves 1 mpg per year or something like that. I would be turning that off but I don't have to worry about that as the 2019 Accord LX doesn't have it. Great review!

I was with you Dustin, we had 4 other hondas before the problematic 2018 CRV EX, they all were fantastic problem free vehicles. Then came the 1.5 Turbo and the outright lies and deny, deny, deny from Honda. I lost confidence in them. The only reason we traded in the 2018 in on the 2019 Passport is I just couldn't in good concience trade it in to anyone but honda. It is likely our last honda. The old " Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" adage.
Can you tell us about the oil dilution issue with this engine? Since its a GDI turbo, does the motor have issues with carbon deposits on the backside of the intake valves? Are you aware of GDI problems to begin with? Please tell us you aware of these problems?
Honda created the illusion of greater space by shrinking/narrower the front seats, and closing the gaps. The gap means the seats are very close to the center console, so much less likeky to have stuff slip between the two. That said, it does feel huge inside, and the seats are still comfortable.
Like the casual but informed style and you're clearly not a fanboy or a shill. Can't wait till our CR-V comes in.
Not sure why Honda didn’t update the infotainment to the much improved Hondalink in the Accord and Odyssey. The new infotainment is on-par with the best.

Even didn’t change on 2021. This is very bad by Honda that don’t give new features to people if sales are going up. Accord and Odyssey sales were going down so Honda changed infotainment to attract people and CR-V in contrast has been going up in sales due to its SUV body. Honda hardly changed anything from 2017-2021 CR-V in EX trims and above.
I'm thinking of buy a used 2020 Honda CR-V.
Nice video, we own this vehicle and the Accord touring, first Honda’s we’ve had and the quality is amazing, very solid feeling vehicles. I don’t understand why reviewers dog Honda’s push button transmission setup, I love it, it looks good to me and lets me open the door and put my phone in the wireless charger without obstruction from a shift lever. 🤷🏽♂️

To keep up with Kia, Hyundai and Toyota one can expect a major CR-V refresh in 2021 to include 360* camera, ventilated seats, parking sensors and power folding mirror.
The 5th gen CR-V with the 1.5T and CVT AWD tested between 7.3 - 7.6 0-60 -- which is not bad for an SUV (not a sports car, but still not bad). The Toyota RAV 4 TRD 0-60 tested at 8.0 seconds, but 7.4 with the hybrid... so the CR-V with AWD would eat the non hybrid for breakfast. I think the AWD plays a major part in acceleration. My wife's 2.4 iVTEC and 5 speed is really slow... even with AWD, but the problem with conventional transmissions is that they can only be tuned for efficiency or performance -- not both; whereas, the CVT can play both sides of the game. I think we have to remember that this is NOT a Civic Type-R, but a utility vehicle ;)

Good review, you are honest. I appreciate that! One suggestion: Need to mount camera so it's looking out at the road just below the rear-view mirror. The mirror is constantly in the way. I don't need to keep seeing you in the mirror if that's what you are trying to do.... I know you have it suctioned cupped to the glass sun room, but you need an extendable / adjustable mount.

Small displacement turbocharged engine has soiled the Honda brand. I bought a 2019 CR-V LX to avoid the disaster, but to 2020 they’ve eliminated that option. Foolish to opt for a turbocharged engine for only 1-2 mpg and a few HP. Completely stupid to invite reliability issues for no tangible benefit.
I got 2018 crv exactly same model 1.5 turbo engine..I got gas smell inside cabin sometimes..also remember 1.5turbo engine got oil dilution problem.we recall reprogramming once I’m keeping eye on it..before I got 05 crv that was best not this model..unless if you claim Honda solve the those issues
Great detailed review. However I wish there would be more reviews of low-end trims that most people buy anyway. Most of such videos show top of the line trim, and that may give different impression of the car for people who can't afford extra whistles and bells for $8-10k. Like CR-V LX doesn't even have mirror blind spot sensor, and interior looks way cheaper than Touring trim.

THE 30 MPG CITY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE.!!!!! THE CRV TOURING SHOULD GET THE 16 SPEAKER ELS 3D PREMIUM SOUND SYSTEM YOU FIND IN THE ACURA RDX.... I'D LIKE TO SEE THE 2022 ENGINE UPGRADED TO A DOHC 1.6 LITER TO GET A LITTLE MORE POWER & ACCELERATION WHILE STILL MAINTAINING EXCEPTIONAL CITY MPG..... I'LL TAKE THE ELS SOUND SYSTEM OVER ALL OTHER FEATURES!!!!

Hello, why my 2020 Honda CR-V EX do not have access to most of the Hondalink services? It is because hardware limitation? Is very frustrating and disappointing. Other cars like the Hyundai Tucson has these features in all trims. Doesn't make any sense since I was willing to pay the subscription.
Honda ruined the CR-V with the CVT transmission and the 1.5 liter turbo engine. they need to go back to the 2.4 engine and a 4 or 5 speed transmission. I have always bought Honda's or Acura now I will have to buy Toyota RAVE or Lexus they have a regular transmission and a 2.4 litter engine.

SuperSonicMan exactly, this car is in the top speed category for all cars under $35k that aren’t trying to be fast. When you take sports cars out of the picture like Camaros and mustangs, there really isn’t anything faster than a 7.5 ish second 0-60. Most regular cars under 30-35k have horrid 9.5+ second 0-60s.
I leased a 2017 EX-L. Wishing I'd have waited at least until 2019. Mine has many quirks and issues. The infotainment screen adjusts its own brightness repeatedly if I use Pandora, so I wind up having to deal with constant beeping. The touch screen will freeze up, and the only way to get it to stop freaking out is to shut the car off for a minute, and not use Pandora on Bluetooth. What's worse is that it takes about 15 minutes for the car to warm up to an acceptable level before driving. If you don't warm it up enough, you risk having gasoline leaking into the oil chamber. The guy at the dealership said the issue is caused by the customer not warming the engine up enough before driving, so it's the customer's fault. I told him it's ridiculous to expect the buyer to warm up their car for 15 minutes every morning before driving. Most cars only take about 3 minutes to warm up. Take it out on the freeway, and it's LOUD. Nonetheless, the it and finish of the interior is fabulous. Fundamentally, it's an awesome car. Definitely the leader in its class, and I love driving it. But with all the bugs mine came with, plus how Honda refuses to fix the issues I've had with it, I will never buy another Honda. When this one finally dies, I will go with anything but Honda.

My new 2018 4Runner also came with a ridiculous stereo that had cd (not even dvd - cd!) player so I immediately threw it way and installed a JVC unit for $240, and it works like a charm. Bottom line: today's honda's quality and reliability are below sea level, and I am saying this as a former owner of 6 hondas and an automotive professional. Feel free to ignore.

My comment may make sense only to those who value dependability above everything else, those who - like I - have extensive professional experience with auto repair industry and, therefore, avoid dealing with it as plague, those who - even if can (like I) - don't enjoy wrenching on a regular basis.

Why? Because every other KZread auto tech says the same thing? I have never had an issue. It does what it's supposed to. I've had 2 of them, current one being 2021 Sport.
Why everyone avoid the oil dilution problem. Its never been fixed properly.
I love my Honda CR-V but the Ford Edge I had had a lot more power though
Nice review.. By the way what camera you use? Tnx
I don’t like the hood design. You can definitely see the reflection on a sunny day. Same problem with Nissan Muranos and other cars.
CVT would keep me from seriously considering this (plus lack of power) and lack of fold down front passenger seat for carrying long items. The GMC Terrain seems to be the only SUV that has folding front passenger seat -- don't these manufacturers realize SUV is for carrying things?

Dave McCann, the compact Honda HR-V have the front seat fold down flat. We own one and it pretty nifty.
Same as out 2018 Touring. Changes are only slight cosmetic. The problem with these the engine. They still have the oil dilution problem. Not something to keep long term. Love absolutely everything else about our CRV. Personally we don’t care about the oil dilution problem because we only keep a vehicle for 2 years. But one these are 4 or 5 years old and out of warranty I’d advise people to stay away from them. Gas in the oil will cause major Turbo issues down the road as well as crank and camshaft problems.

You don't care... Really? Well if you're leasing and your lease contract assures you that you will only be paying what you agreed to then I understand that BUT if you bought the vehicle and enough people looking to purchase a used one aren't willing to risk buying a used one without a huge discount then the result could be a huge reduction in Honda's resale value which means you could take a hit on it when it comes time to trade it in. Maybe then you'll care.

Has Honda fixed their oil dilution problems with their 1.5L Turbo engines in 2020?

Yes they have but most people will say they have not. Dont listen to those people!!!!!! Honda will not risk their brand!!!!!!!
Really ? 1.5 turbo engine is a no-no for a car this size, I don't think this engine will last 200K miles without major overhaul.

Given the problems Honda has ha with this engine, and its policy of ignoring the problems, I doubt that on average the CR-Vs powered by the 1.5 liter turbo will end up running half that mileage.

@@f181234 I wonder how that compares with the number that are having problems? Maybe too soon to tell as most folks who have put 150,000 miles on them at this stage are likely putting mostly highway miles on them. 100,000 highway miles = 10,000 city miles when comparing wear on the drive train.
All things being equal, I like the styling of the Mazda CX-5 much better.

Right Mazda went for distinctive and tasteful with their design language, where as this new CRV, honestly it looks like they put no effort at all in to the front end design, completely derivative, generic, and mishmash. I will give Honda credit for the Civic, at least they really tried with the styling of that model. On the CRV though, I think Mazda, Nissan, Toyota all have it beat. Oddly enough though when it comes to minivans, I think Honda has Toyota beat with exterior/interior design, the Odyssey is nicer than the Sienna, but Toyota still has Honda beat on mechanics, specially because Honda is going with tiny turbocharged engines while Toyota is sticking with 2.4 non turbo and 6 spd auto instead of cvt.
Waiting for the hybrid version of this only so I can avoid the 1.5L turbo.

Man, oh man, I've seen some fuel dilution before, but not like our 18 Crv ex had. It was crazy bad.
If they had ventilated seats and didn’t have that CVT, it would be perfect.

Yeah the turbo with oil dilution problems, and cvt which even if a good one, will be too expensive to replace at 100K kms. So much for buying a Honda for longevity and reliability. Really like the cargo space of this small SUV, but cannot afford guaranteed expensive repairs. Also heard the AC in Hondas are weak.....which here in southern Ontario summers is a deal breaker.
