2024 Honda CR-V Consumer Reviews

This is my 3rd Honda. I should have researched better before buying and now I’m stuck with a car I do not like. I loved my 2022 CRV. I loved my Honda Civic before that. I hate this new one! Don’t be tricked like I was. This newer CRV seems safe and will get you from point A to point B. But if you are looking for amenities, look elsewhere. This is car is designed to be cheap and basic, even the supposedly nicer EX-L version. They took away the garage door button! Get out that old garage door opener from 1985 that attaches to your viser!. There is no Sirius or music player other than a basic radio (also reminiscent of 1985) that has horrible sound. Oh they tell you to just use your phone. But it works maybe 1/3 the time. Driving somewhere your phone doesn’t have bars? Guess you get to drive in silence now. The obstacle warnings are hyper-sensitive and will alert six times when driving into and backing out of your garage. There are so annoying that I’m shutting them off so that feature is useless. I feel tricked and will never buy another Honda and will tell everyone to forever avoid this the CRV so they are not tricked too. There are nice cars out there with garage door openers and music when you drive! If you are convinced you want a Honda, get the cheapest version because the more expensive one only includes 1985 type features.

We have owned or leased 5 Hondas in the past 21 years. I am currently leasing a 2025 CR-V EX-L and will have it for 12 more months unless I buy it at lease-end. My biggest gripe with Hondas is road noise over 50 mph. For what the CR-V costs, a bit more insulation would be nice, although with each subsequent CR-V I've owned the road noise has lessened. My 2025 CR-V does not hold the road very well on gravel/dirt surfaces. Granted, I have factory tires. I'm getting up to 34 mpg around town and under 50 mph. On interstate about 36-ish. Winter gets around 28 mpg.

We love our 2019 so it seemed to make sense to buy a 2026. However, the newer model seems like a downgrade with all the changes that make no sense. These are the things you dont notice until you drive it home 1) No garage door button - we just want a button not to fumble through the screen. 2) seems less powerful 3) I know how to park a car in the garage- dont need every light and beep going off because I am two feet from something. Its a garage its supposed to be tight 4) Back up camera - someone decided to add an icon in the right of the backup camera which obscures to view of cars coming from the right when backing up. 5) Gear shifter is not smooth when you try to shift from D to P when you hit R you feel like its done and you are in P, but its still in R. 6) Not a fan of the screen but thats the trend - its basically a fancy radio right now. No logical way to get to the apps - I still have not found a YouTube video that show how this thing works.

Have had Honda autos since 1972. Cars have been great but dealers soso. They need more colors, just like all the manufacturers. Sick of silver, gray, white, black, wine, navy.

We Found That Our CRV Does Not Like Inclines And Highway Gas Mileage Is Horrible. The Hybrid Assist Revs To Max And The Car Loses Speed And The Gas Mileage Plummets When Going Up A Grade Like The 15 To Las Vegas. This Car Is Unsafe. Honda Has Been No Help Either.

This makes my second CRV and I am loving the EXL trim. It has plenty of room and drives smooth unless on rough roads. I love the power tailgate, leather seats and the 9inch screen instead of 7 inch that was in my last CRV. Just wish it didn’t have wind noise from the windshield. Overall, it is very comfortable to drive and gets good gas mileage fir what driving I do.

This is the second CR-V EX-L I've owned. It is superior in quality and performance over any brand I've owned over the years. No major issues, great gas milage, great safety features, and well appointed. It's a solid car, and I will soon purchase another as a second car. I would highly recommend Honda CR-V AWD EX-L.

I am hoping Honda has fixed the design flaws of the 1.5L but only time will tell. I had a 2025 Civic Sport which caused back and hip pain. I give many thanks to the dealership I have dealt with for helping me out tremendously. Although some things could be a little better I am very happy with the change.
