Honda CR-V Review from Consumer Reports (2006-2011 model)

[Dootsie623]

OMG HUGE ANNOTATION

[Ge0vone]

They killed this car for me when they don't offer a manual transmission in the new ones. Also, getting rid of the double wishbone suspension

[onomatopoeia162003]

they need to link it to the newer one. FYI

[consumerreports]

@onomatopoeia162003 Thanks. The link is now fixed.

[shadowlightz1]

Does the 2011 CRV come with an Adaptive Cruise Control which can automatically brake using the radar at the front or is it only a Normal Cruise Control?

[jolokubus]

ya ya ya ya i agree i have this car im 18 but fuck the v4 i like v6

[rapandrnb]

GOD I HATE THIS PRESENTER !!

HIS VOICE IS THE MOST IRRITATING SOUND !!

[TheCottonTop]

I love my moms 08 CR-V But it is under powered and its small wheels and tire would be worthless off road, even with it's AWD. I work for Toyota and the late model RAV4 has an available 3.5L V6 and AWD that surpasses anything else in it's class both on road and off. If you don't believe me just look up the stats and compare.

[SUGAR54446]

Would you recommend this for a high school student for when they get their license in summer 2012?

[LindazEyes]

@SUGAR54446 Definitely! Honda or Toyota (RAV4 for suv or any other model) & Hyundai (Tucson...) are very reliable. If you do yer research w/ C.R., you can see these makers have incredibly reliable stats down the line.

[SnowroxKT]

@LindazEyes I wouldn't buy a Hyundai. My mom has a 2006 Tucson and the Transmission went out at under 50k miles...

[gnksettlemire]

Love it! So family oriented,and roomy.Great ride!!

[ladyyuna2000]

Cute Honda cr-v and I like the color

[carlsm95]

My mom has this car leased, im just checking out reviews

[Imachowderhead]

My wife has a 08 crv. 30 mpg and never had a problem. great cars, has almost 100k on it. The only thing replaced were the tires.

[geusebio15]

great review. i agree w/ everything he said on its practicality and no-nonsense package.

[onomatopoeia162003]

still thinking of getting the pilot in the future

[topdollars2]

haha the music in the intro is the same in monopoly for ipad xD

[six6wings]

This is *NOT* the 2011 which has a redesigned fascia and improved amenities.

[jvrdlc]

this car needs a V6

[mehcraig]

@jvrdlc : let's be green and don't burn the gas that we really don't need.

[vicsaggu]

honda has this terrible trait of road noise in all of their cars. I own one and after u get past the new car happiness , it gets annoying at freeway speeds.

[Imachowderhead]

@vicsaggu Change the tires, ours had the cheapo continentals, we upgraded to Michelins and it cut the road noise down a lot.

[btester1]

Stay away unless you want repairs.

[etoyotarockshsucks]

the seats look like there from a chevrolete venture. LOL

[davidhalifax]

I don't understand why most Honda don't have centre storage bin. The CRV is still an awkward looking vehicle and it is showing its age.

[GrahamCrackers94]

2011 Kia Sportage for me. :)

[etoyotarockshsucks]

the ride is very uneteling and the egine sounds like a unrefined desil. The build quality is afuwl as well. Theres no doubt hondas paying u for this report tom

[yvoe9]

Theres no noise inside at all, we live under a flight path, and in the car is slient, and once i opened the door i noticed a plane flying over us, that i didnt even hear, and it was LOUD

[flags6262]

Why do they keep saying underpowered on these reviews. I have one and it has more than enough power in the city, on hills and on the interstate. I have never had the gas pedal more than half way to the floor. Passing in the city or on the interstate is easy. I go from 50 to 80 in 4 seconds flat.

[patriciaannpat]

I had a 2007 and it had a lot of problems ..they cost more then there worth 

[flags6262]

Bull. I have a 2003 with 128,000 miles with nothing replaced except maintenance wear items. it has never skipped a beat.

[Jsoto1115]

@flags6262 japanese cars are good for this i have a highlander with 120,000 on it its 04 and I honestly didnt realize it had so much cause it runs like new.

[attack7672]

womens cars as usual

[jaretkady]

one good improvement you guys could make would be to add the year of the vehicle in the title

[KingBALTIMORE1]

@jaretkady true, however just look at the uploaded date under the video. Uploaded march 2010, so its a 2010 model

[hondaboii89]

I'm getting a new car in about a month and I can't decide between this and the Pilot. Which is better for a more active lifestyle? (Element's too small and doesn't offer a moonroof..)

[crammage]

GET A SUBARU!!!!!!!

[bajabusta]

The CRV is one of the few, if not the only one in it's class that really hasn't grow much, and has stayed close to it's roots. For that I applaud it. The original RAV4 for instance was a direct competitor to this, but has grown up and out of class, like most toyotas actually. It seems like they create a new car below it's smallest one to fill a hole that was lost when the previous model grew!

[plagick]

Thanks for the reviews steller guy. I like his to the point factual advice. It seems like he likes this car. I cant tell.

I just an not into SUV bit if I was a fat ass I would like this one.
