Sometimes, you don’t want to mess with success. Honda introduced the brand-new 2017 CR-V last year, and not much changes as it enters the 2018 model year.
Except for the price, that is. A base CR-V LX with a 2.4-liter, 184-horsepower I4 will set you back $24,150, a modest hike over 2017’s base price of $24,045. That story continues all the way up the lineup, through the EX and Touring trims. Front-wheel drive is standard, but AWD is available on any trim for an extra $1,300.
The CR-V is a hard act to beat in a very hot segment.
Once you move up to the EX trim, the engine changes to the Honda Civic’s 1.5-liter turbocharged I4. In the CR-V, it puts out 190 horsepower, which is a bit more than what you get in the 2.4, but it’s a fair bit more efficient — a front-wheel-drive CR-V with the 2.4 achieves 26 mpg city and 28 mpg highway, whereas a comparable 1.5-liter-equipped model can hit 28 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. Not a huge bump, but an improvement nevertheless.
