The Honda CR-V is a luxury SUV and the only vehicle in the company's portfolio with an option of a four-wheel drive system. The vehicle is powered by two petrol engines, a 2.0 litre unit, which is offered with a two wheel drive system and a more powerful 2,4 litre motor with 4WD. The smaller petrol engine is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission and a 5 speed automatic, while the larger engine is available only with a 5 speed automatic. While the CR-V is termed as a soft roader by many, it does have a reasonable off-road capability. This luxury SUV comes only in a 5 seater format but there is enough cabin space with a number of cubby holes along with enough equipment for the driver to experience a fatigue-free and joyful drive.
