It's very nice. Not bummed about not having full digital instrument cluster. I have a 2018 Accord with the half digital/half analog display, and one night the digital side went blank on a long drive home. Finally got home, turned the car off and back on again, it was still out. It wasn't until the next day I got in, started up and the display was back. So yeah, I prefer the speedometer staying "analog". I will be looking to get one of these after the refresh in a few years.

The half digital/half analog gauge cluster is a bit strange BUT I do like the way they did the speedometer so it actually ends up blending really well.

Another great, fun, detailed review...glad you know how to get silly now and then, Joe! Biggest zonk for me is the No HUD. I have it in my 2020 Touring Accord and, being the King of Lost, having the compass right in front of me has been great. 2nd after that is the no ventilated seats thing, which has been nice, too. I'm assuming these 19" wheels don't have adaptive dampers like in my Touring Accord, or you probably would have mentioned it...nor did you mention that in your new Accord Hybrid Touring review. I wish this had the Google features on the new Accord Touring, and the 12.3" screen. But since I live in a Buffalo burb, having-finally-AWD with a Snow mode would be great. My lease is up later in 2023, and I was going to do the Accord Touring. But with my arthritic knees, getting in and out of the CRV should be more comfortable. It looks great, and I suspect I'm going to go with the Touring CRV, same powertrain and all. Lucky me, West Herr Honda NEVER marks up any of the many brands they sell in Western New York, regardless of supply shortages. No discounts in the foreseeable future, but nothing above MRSP, and no forced dealer add-ons, either! GREAT work by your camera gal, too!

Nice review. Our blue CRV touring is being delivered next week & we're very excited. You mention the 10 speed transmission. The key to the Honda hybrid system lies in the unique transmission. It's not a conventional CVT. At lower speeds (and in reverse) there is no direct mechanical connection between the engine & wheels, just the electric motor driving the wheels. As your speed increases, there is a clutch #1 that engages set #1 spur gears to mechanically connect the engine to the wheels for city speed cruising. Then as you increase speed, clutch #1 disengages and another clutch #2 engages set #2 gears for highway cruising. These two clutch/gears are very efficient & is part of what gives the vehicle such good fuel economy.

He making a very good point about that rear wiper. I don’t understand why manufacturers won’t tuck that in up top. It’s just looks so much more cleaner.

I've already pre-ordered the Sport Touring model, but I really am disappointed that Honda didn't include options for: -Pano roof -Heads up Display -Ventilated Seats -Full digital dash -360 camera I know several of these options are included, plus a 3 row of seating, on the Asian market versions of this CR-V, which is quite disappointing as the main competitors offer some or all of these, but at the end of the day, none of them FEEL like a Honda, and that's what ultimately won me over in choosing the CR-V. Loving the new Bose system for sure, I'm just hoping Honda hears people and adds some of these other missing features in the next year or two.

I currently have an SUV with a panoramic sunroof and I LOVE it. I think it's a real miss that the Honda Sport Hybrid doesn't have one. It's competitors do. Not having ventilated seats is also a miss. Also, I wish the CRV had levers in the back to pop the rear seats down without reaching. Add those features and I'd be more interested in buying one. Don't love the lack of a spare tire either.

I’m fine with the charcoal gray painted fender flaps and I like the way it contrast with that orange reflector. And maybe it’s a little more durable to some rocks than that blue metallic would have been. But definitely a big zonk for not throwing in some fog lights at this trim level.

Hi Raiti, GREAT review as always. Re: 'Whether the sunroof should be "Panoramic", I am frankly, glad it's not. Here's why: > If you leave the pano--roof closed, but the sunshade open, a pano-roof will bake the car like an oven. > With pano-roofs, even if I just want to open the roof a little, I still have to open the sunshade all the way in the bright sun. > With smaller sunroofs, like this, one can usually open the roof half-way, then pull the sunshade half-closed. NICE 😎 > Pano-roofs are more likely to shatter on very hot days. (Can you say 'Hottest day on record for August"?) > Pano-roofs have more problems and are more expensive to fix. Hyundai had to service mine 5X, before finally replacing it at no charge, OUTSIDE of the warranty. (It pays to service at the dealer and keep ALL the receipts) > Pano-roofs mean bigger holes cut into the roof of the vehicle, which compromises structural integrity. (This is one reason why hi-end luxury vehicles usually don't have fold-down rear seats, only a pass-through) > Less structural integrity could possibly mean something in a crash or roll-over > Less structural integrity can also mean more "Buzz, Squeak and Rattle" ("B-S-R") issues over the long-term. > Larger pano-roofs also give thieves one more easy, large, point of access into your car. > Finally: . . . Passengers aside, Can YOU really see any more of that blue-sky behind you, from the driver's seat? Without twisting your neck? I think not! . I hope that's food for thought. "Gort, Barenga" Happy motoring .

this vehicle doesn’t have a transmission. Honda advertises it as a CVT cuz it’s easier for consumers to understand, but in fact there is no transmission at all. the wheels are driven by the electric motors which does have really great performance and feels almost just like a torque converter transmission power output which automatically makes the reliability of this vehicle amazing. no transmission means less moving perfectly break. one less thing that needs to be serviced, too.

I love the panoramic sunroof. I have narrowed down my choices to KIA Sportage and Honda CR-V. Honda has great reputation for reliability but KIA with its light color interior and the panoramic sunroof (which makes it look bigger inside) is very competitive. So, I will let you know after my final test drives.

I'm a long-time CRV driver and currently driving a 2018 Lava orange crv that is paid off. I have been debating trading for a new suv. I love the new body style with a much sportier look of this new version! Some misses include, no fog lights, no heads up display, no 360 degree camera view, no panoramic moon roof, no fully digital display. Right now, I would purchase the Hyundai Tuscon hybrid over this one with a 10 yr/100,000 mile warranty and all the electronic upgrades. Will likely wait as interest rates have sky-rocketed and see what improvements the 2024 CRV has. Thanks for your thorough review!

Good review! Two points. 1. I agree regarding the fog lights. That should be standard on ALL vehicles and should come as a safety feature, making night driving safer for all. 2. I test drove the 2021 CR-V Touring and the tiny wireless charging pad was TOO SMALL for my Samsung Note 20+ phone!

@@rockstarrussell5315 yes, which is even worse. They have no loaners at all and claim you have to leave it there for 2-3 days for them to look at it... which of course... is impossible. 3 out of the last 5 days it wouldn't even connect apple car play. It's a pile of junk

The 2023 Honda CR-V Looks Cool, Anyways, Nice Review.

Such a nice thing they did with simulated shifts😮 less leaf blower and more traditional

Great review as always. It needs a heads-up display and panoramic sun roof.

Definitely a zonk on the rear turn signals being incandescent. However easy upgrade for sure. Three major things would have loved to have is ventilated Seats for sure and panoramic roof and fogs! The Asian spec models have a panoramic roof. Kinda crazy haha. Heads up display would be nice too. But hey..list goes on when it comes to bells and whistles lol. Guess they gotta save some features for the future CR-V’s

Are the seats comfortable? My 2017 CR-V on long trips is like I'm sitting on an ironing board.

They made some improvements.

Loved your review . Would like to know if Honda has factory installed hitch. I did see where E trailer makes a hitch where only the receiver is exposed for a cleaner look.

That is a great question! Thanks for the support David!

Great review!

Yes panoramic sunroof is a must at not only the price point but in general since most auto maker are doing it. I’m watching this review to see the interior. I have a feeling that this is a somewhat preview of what the new accord will look like. I’m anxiously waiting for them to reveal the new redesign for the accord since my lease will be up next year this time. I just hope Honda makes a true sport model and not just upgraded wheels and a sport badge. If they don’t make major improvements I may be switching manufactures

Like I said in my comment though I’m anxiously waiting for Honda to reveal the accord and what features it may or may not have to then make my decision if I’m sticking with Honda or not in my next lease. I love the 2.0 turbo sport model but when looking at models in the same price point they have way more features an upgrade a tech to the interior for Honda to just be like nah it’ll be fine lol

I’m in love with the new Crv 😭😭😭😍😍😍

Out the door pricing was $46k in Massachusetts. This included an additional bumper to bumper 10 year 150k miles warranty coverage offered by Fidelity which was $3400 extra. Perhaps we paid to much? idk. usually keep cars for 10 plus years. also the hybrid drives 100% better than the turbo if anyone is wondering.

They say that extra warranties terrible value buys and that we should avoid them in all forms. I bought a car with an extended warranty once. I made one claim on that warranty and the claim was denied.

Honda's modern CVT's actually don't suck. It actually has a launch (1st) gear to get it off the line (like Toyota's CVT's). Just make sure you have its fluid changed every 30,000 miles, specifically at the Honda dealer, because they use fluid specifically for their CVT's. My '19 CR-V has the CVT and it's no slouch. 66,000 miles, and I have yet to do anything other than routine service.

Awesome review of this crv joe and incredible camera work Lori

The reason I’m glad I chose this car review is because of the pineapple input, what other channel offers this level of detail?

Glad u mentioned the fog lamps… are they taking them off all their newer models … I noticed the top of the line touring Accord didn’t have it either
