Advantages Of The 2018 Honda CR-V

As you can see from the table above the five SUVs are fiercely competitive with each other. Their individual curb weights differ by a mere 53 kg, which is less than that of an adult. There are standard features across the board, including the rear-view camera, a touchscreen display, advanced airbag systems, and available AWD.

So where does the CR-V rise above? Why has it been one of the top-selling SUVs for the last 20 years since it’s release in 2015? There are a few reasons to explain. The CR-V has amazing fuel economy, which allows you to go further for less, with 8.4L/ 100km city and 7.0L/ 100km highway. Most people spend a large portion of their time zipping around town, going to and from work, the mall and dropping kids off at school. The city fuel efficiency of the CR-V outshines its closest competitor, the Nissan Rogue by half a liter per 100km in the FWD model, and almost a full liter in the AWD model. Besides fuel efficiency, the CR-V gives you greater power for increased capability. With its standard turbocharged 1.5L- 16-Valve, 4-cylinder engine, you get an impressive 190-horsepower and 179-torque, which far surpasses its competition.
