2024 Honda CR-V RS e:HEV review: Top-spec hybrid CR-V tested | Top Gear Philippines

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The Honda CR-V is one of the pioneering models of the compact-crossover segment, and has earned a very loyal following over six generations and almost two decades. With the arrival of he sixth-gen model in the Philippine market in 2023, local buyers had the option of getting a hybrid CR-V for the first time. It also signals Honda Cars Philippines’ renewed efforts to electrify its lineup.
At P2,590,000, however, the top-spec Honda CR-V RS e:HEV enters the territory of midsize SUVs in terms of pricing, even though it targets an entirely different segment of buyers. What exactly does that sum of money get you? Click play on the video above to watch our full review of the range-topping CR-V, and let us know in the comments if you think it’s worth the asking price.

    Most handsome crv gen so far but the most expensive as well. Would be a rare sight here in PH.

    For those who own this vehicle like myself, I highly recommend having a front strut bar installed which links the left and right suspension strut towers for better handling and balance since this vehicle is front wheel drive. It reinforces and stiffens up the chassis and makes it more stable by reducing chassis flex. It also counters the flaw found in MacPherson Strut. I've really noticed the difference specially when cornering. It's also easy to install and not that expensive either.

    I'm not sure though at 2.6m there are cars better equipped, better power and more premium materials interior wise. I question Honda's decision to have all their cars comes with CVT, which reliability is a huge question mark. Will it last like it use to? I doubt it.

    @@user-zc1dx5dv5u Yes that's true. But doesn't change the fact that Honda's lineup are all CVT's. I may have missed this particular hybrid with e-cvt, but the rest non hybrids are all cvt's, including CR-V's other variants.

    @@user-zc1dx5dv5u Then you must have been misinformed. Subaru CVT's has been plagued with issues for years between 2010 to 2018. Subaru CVT's are known to fail between 90k - 150k. Oh not to mention Nissan's CVT massive failures with overheating, whining noise, shuddering, premature failures, poor response and etc etc which is not exclusive to only nissan. Honda CVT's between 2010-2016 also have known reliability issues. Do you know why generally honda cars horsepower are not very high? it's because CVT's can't take much torque. They generally can't take anything above 300nm. if you look at their technical specs, 250nm is probably max load. Over the years, CVT from many brands are a huge problem with major failures. Also, CVT's have the rubber band effect during acceleration. Not only that, it also displays quite a bit of delay as well. Granted, over the years CVT's has improved but a conventional torque converter automatic is still much more reliable than a cvt. The only thing CVT is good at is probably the smoothness and fuel economy, when it doesn't fail or break. Forgot to mention, CVT's require higher demand for maintenance.
