Positive Review
The interior is upscale, the exterior is eye catching, the fuel economy is amazing, the cabin is super quiet, it is loaded with technology, even when using nav through Apple wireless Play it also shows the navigation info on the instrument cluster as well. The Sport L has wireless charge and wireless Apple Play so you do not need to go to the Touring unless you want the 12 speaker Bose and 19" wheels. I worked for Goodyear for 30 years and 18" inch wheels are plenty large and cost less. The ride quality is firm but comfortable and the seats have memory and lumbar and even the passenger front has electric adjust. I have owned three Toyotas, two Hondas, and a Mitsubishi and they are all reliable, I did my research before buying and the Honda was by far the best vehicle.

Our car was stolen across the street. Terrible safety features. Noisy engine. Horrible MPG. Cheap materials. We had a 2024 EXL non Hybrid
The CRV Hybrid has exceeded my expectations -- really good MPG approx. 36/37 and tons of room! Perfect size for driving around your dogs. I'm very content with my purchase of this vehicle.
This car is fun to drive, economical and versatile. Great design with attention to details. Our only complaints are the cell phone charger is finicky and the car doesn’t like steep grades.
I’ve had Hondas and before that, Subarus, for many years and really enjoyed them all. Wanted a hybrid, but Subaru’s gas mileage with hybrid was not very good (due to AWD all the time). Got my first hybrid in 2020, an Accord, and I loved everything about it. Really great handling—battery is on the bottom, right in the center, so that gives it great stability. Also, zero problems, very reliable. Later I needed a more rugged car with higher clearance, so I got a 2024 CRV Hybrid. I like it too, but I’m not in love with it because it’s so much bigger than the Accord. Either way, both great reliable cars!

What, no compass on a high end SUV or satellite XM radio? Poor gas mileage for an hybrid.
First SUV I have owned without a compass but you do get Leather seats. Not sure where they get 37 mpg all around. First fill up while driving ECO mode 25mpg Second fill up, drove like a granny, 29.5 mpg Third fill up everyone honked at me for driving so slow, 31 mpg. I guess you get 37 mpg being towed half way. I only 500 miles on my CR-V Sport L hybrid, hopefully the MPG will improve!

test drove 2025 2.0 engine hybrid crv sport l ,lacks power needs turbo engine, Honda sensing does not work that well bounces from left to right in the lane keeping and disengages often
Everything by the Hybrid power plant
Hybrid engine
The mileage is abysmal, the motor is noisy and quirky to an annoying degree, and the transitions and transmission are jumpy. It is awful to drive around town, and I am light-footed with the motor kicking in and out. There is no incremental benefit for the extra cost of a hybrid. The vehicle is excellent, comfortable, and the instrumentation is better, but the hybrid power plant is a deal-killer.
A brand new 2026 Honda CRV hybrid and the radio has super poor reception of SiriusXM. The streaming quality of SiriusXM is highly variable- plainly just doesn’t work. I contacted my salesperson 3x and eventually the person said - no fix. Perhaps, fix will be coming. This performance is really annoying since I like to listen to SiriusXM when driving. Honda really blew it on introducing this feature.
