2021 Honda CR-V Review
Unlike many other crossovers, the 2021 Honda CR-V stands out from the crowd. It sports dynamic performance with lots of sophisticated instruments and features inside to please Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, and Hershey SUV buyers. If you want to feel what it’s like to sit in the driver’s seat and press down on the accelerator, visit Faulkner Honda to see for yourself.
Space to Stretch Out
As you enter a car, you want to know you’ll be able to stretch out and be comfortable. The CR-V cabin makes that possible with room for five amid available leather-trimmed seats. Just as you like your home furnishings to match, your vehicle upholstery can, too, by adding a coordinating steering wheel and shift knob.
Let’s look closer at the interior dimensions:
Dimensions | Front Seat | Rear Seat |
Headroom | 40.1 inches | 39.2 inches |
Hip Room | 55.1 inches | 49.5 inches |
Legroom | 41.3 inches | 40.4 inches |
Shoulder Room | 57.9 inches | 55.6 inches |
Not only should you feel comfortable in the cabin, but you need a driver’s seat that lets you maneuver it into the ideal mix of comfort and visibility. With 12 ways in the optional seat, we think that should satisfy, especially with 4-way power adjustable lumbar support.
Discover available amenities like the heated front seats, heated steering wheel, and dual-zone automatic temperature control individually adjustable for each front-seat rider. The cabin can be accented with ambient lighting to give it alluring mystery at night or an available one-touch power moonroof to welcome daylight into the cabin.
In the back, a huge expanse of cargo space—75.8 cubic feet, to be exact—can be accessed through the hands-free access power tailgate upgrade. When you fold down your second row, this space becomes available.
True Blue Technology
Your smartphone can be your car companion through integration via optional Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™. These systems enable you to tap into your phone apps to make calls, review text messages, and download your music. Your phone can also be connected to Honda Link® so you can easily schedule service appointments and receive vehicle updates.
To view all this activity, the upgraded 7-inch Display Audio touch-screen depicts where you’re going with the help of the available Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™. It also helps you select tunes from your music library for listening on the optional 9-speaker premium audio system. To ensure your phone doesn’t drain its battery, place it on the available wireless phone charger.
Safety—A Package Deal
During the mid-1960s, safety systems began to appear in cars, and now it’s smart and trending to combine all those great features into one package deal. Honda Sensing® groups a handful of helpful technologies to help keep you safe and on track.
Included you’ll find the Collision Mitigation Braking System™, Road Departure Mitigation System, Lane Keeping Assist System, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow. A multi-angle rearview camera also comes standard with available dynamic guidelines.
Dueling Drivetrain Performance
Take a peek under the hood to spot the 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. This engine generates 190 horsepower with 179 lb-ft of torque accompanied by a Continuously Variable Transmission. This drivetrain helps all CR-V trims with 2WD achieve an EPA-estimated 28 city/34 highway MPG.*
When you’re looking for significant traction and staying power on the road, opt for the available Real Time AWD™. This gives you added control, especially if you want to affix a trailer weighing a maximum 1,500 pounds. Across all CR-V trims with all-wheel drive, you’ll earn up to an EPA-estimated 27 city/32 highway MPG.*
