The Honda CR-V is the overwhelming favorite in the compact crossover segment, and for good reason. CR-Vs are affordable, practical, efficient, reliable, and safe, and they hold their value well over time. Honda’s 2017 CR-V will undoubtedly continue providing its owners everything they’ve come to expect, and thanks to a complete redesign, it delivers even more. Is this the new benchmark in the segment?
Front styling remains slightly awkward. Otherwise, Honda mixes traditional CR-V cues with modern sculpturing, and the rear end is particularly attractive. Dual exhaust outlets even lend this SUV a hint of sex appeal, and while they wouldn’t be my first choice, even the trippy aluminum wheel design adds character.
Inside, the CR-V Touring easily passes for premium, and some people might consider it legitimately luxurious. The cabin exudes refinement and attention to detail, and while there’s plenty of plastic covering various surfaces, it’s of a substantial quality. Read more on CarGurus: cargur.us/ffKxL

124K miles on my 09' CRV and not one issue... Amazing reliability.
Trading in my 2012 CR-V for the 2017 as soon as I can, the hardest part will be choosing the right color.
F CHINO-jr. the Gunmetal Gray and Modern Steel Metallic are by far the best looking colours. They show the new design cues the most. My girlfriend bought the White Pearl and it too is nice, but there was a Touring Modern Steel Metallic in the showroom and it looked pretty slick.
F CHINO-jr. You won't be disappointed with the 2017. The interior is beautiful and the ride, handling, cabin noise and features are all an improvement over the previous generation. We owned a 2014 before the 2017 and they've really done a nice job with the new one.
Jason Ouellette , those are the same colors I'm considering Jason, very Cool. I have a white 2012 CR-V now, so even thou I like the white lots I'm not sure if I want another white one. Thinking gunmetal for sure. 👍🏻
Obsidian Blue.
Molten is the only color to get :)
Nice review, Mr. Wardlaw! I just love the very descriptive words you always seem to incorporate in your videos! Also, I love how concise you leave your reviews!
The CRV seems like a pretty neat offering in the class, and based off of your experience it seems like it can hold the place for one of the best in its class! I cannot wait until I can review the CRV, myself! Keep up the great work!😉

Would love to pickup one in lunar silver metallic touring!
Came for the car stayed for Chris!
I went to the 2017 Los Angeles Car Show, walked around and every SUV I climbed into, nothing felt as good as the Honda CR-V, the only SUV that came close was the Volvo XC60, different class but a lot of the luxury brands got cheap depending upon name and less in aesthetics. Not sure about reliability on the Volvo but on the Honda this says it right. I like the way Honda works, only 4 trims no options. Base model LX, EX comes with everything but leather (cloth seats just as comfortable) and the lift gate EX-LX leather, push button lift gate, Touring foot-gate, navigation (though EX and above get Apple/Android and your choice of nav including Google Maps, Waze, etc. It was no surprise that Motortrend named this 2018 SUV of the Year.
Rode in one a few days ago. Found the ride to be a bit firm and engine was a little unrefined on acceleration. Maybe im just used to my 17 year old Lexus with 16 inch wheels, fat tires, and buttery V6. Super practical, well made, and spacious though.
Thanks for a great review. I love my 2016 CR-Vs lane watch assist because I can see pedestrians or bicyclists on a right turn. I wish it was on the driver’s side too. Now I know it’s gone for good. I will keep my 2016 for now. (2021 💔)
I'm just watching to find out if the passenger seat is height adjustable.
It's not.
I too noticed lower mileage in my 2017 CRV initially. Now after 1500 miles, it averages around 28.5mpg for a combination of city and highway
kal c is it AWD with 1.5 turbo engine ?
I just bought a Honda CRV EX 2017. it does have vibration issue like 2015 model. check before buy.
Honda CR-V...The King!
It also needs more color selections, most available would look right at home in a funeral procession. How's about some brilliant oranges, bright greens , neon yellows. Anything but boring silver, black, white, scab red and deep forest green.
you are right about not getting the mpg. i have noticed that on my crv 2017. mileage is less than advertised.
Chris you are the best at this.
Just bought one to drive around my 2 big dogs. My EX has so many features. Still would rather have a new Element as it was easier to load the dogs.
On the gas mileage: Do you think the below E.P.A. estimates is because of the hilly, non-highway terrain you were driving through? Just a thought
I have 16000 miles on mine and never have gotten less then 29 and most of my combined numbers average 32 with a high of 35 on hwy so I have no idea why he would be getting so low except that maybe he has a lead foot.
Another excellent review. I can attest to Honda/EPA overstating mpg. My late model Accord 4cyl is grossly overstated by the EPA per the onboard trip computer.
I think Honda cut their own throats. I was going to trade my 2014 CRV-LX for a 2017 CRV EXL, unfortunately the
only engine I could get was a Turbo except on LX. I was also going to buy my wife an Accord 2018 and it also
comes with Turbo. I am a die hard fan of the reliable 2.4 and the 3.0 engine by owning several in the past. There is
no way that I am going to get into Turbo. I tested drove a CRV and there was a noticeable Turbo lack. I didn't have
a chance to drive at high speed to test the power coming out of a hole but I am sure it will be disappointing. Honda
haven't realized that their cars were sold on reliability, not MPG. Instead of trying to add 20 more HP or torque to
the 2.4 engine (200/200) or add 3.0/3.5 option, they went for fuel economy. I would buy a RDX V-6 for me and a
Camry for my wife instead.
Mr wardlaw. this new CRV vs Kia Sorento. which one u prefer? you say you like both. thanks
1. Seems like the higher altitude would impact fuel economy.
2. More subscription services? No thanks. Honda Sensing is pretty damn good, don't see the appeal or understand what's missing.
I have a 2016 CRV EX AWD and I was only manage to get 26-27 MPG mix so not as specified.
I'm with you on the new instrumentation: give me a good, old round analog speedometer and tachometer any day. I'm not liking the new gauge design at all on the 2017 model.
Plzzzzz Christian do a review of the new Kia Sportage. I'm having a tough time deciding between the croc and sportage
Handles well because Takaaki Nagadome lead the development of this current generation. He was the lead engineer of the original NSX's chassis. Yep, there is too much engineering, talent and experience involved in developing this CRV.
Has Honda announced a fix for their brake pads and the shaking at idle for the crv
Chris you never get the EPA’s estimated fuel economy of the EPA even exists anymore! But I assume you drive like us the normal people. Nice review.
Honda is on it these days with their new products. We'll see how they counter the new Camry. I thought they did had a radio knob on these though.
There is a volume knob but not a tuning knob.
Sweet dad outfit bro
Any plans to update for 2020 model? 2017 is 3 years old now
Fantastic review!
Not the most attractive but it is practical! Best seller! Hard not to buy!
Are those EPA mpg numbers with the Econ mode and how badly will Sport mode kill that efficiency?
Some reviews claim the cabin is loud like so many Honda's. Is this what you'd encountered?
@2:46 What do you mean a CVT powers the car unless you choose 4wd? I thought there's only one choice of automatic?
Hey +ureviews, you are correct, the CR-V is only available with a CVT. The CVT is used for both FWD and AWD equipped CR-V's.
Your claim that Lane Keeping Assist System was removed is not true.
I feel like I'm watching an old kung fu movie....whats with the delay in the voice to lip moving. Lololol
Is this Rich Rebuilds? I AM CONFUSED!
just because the price is below average is does not mean it is cheap. luxury cars drive the average upward and thus the average price of new car is not representative of the average new non luxury new car price.
Perfect Review!
Great review Chris! Would you mind commenting on the adequacy of the 1.5l engine and the durability of the CVT.? I want to get an EX but found out they have deleted the CD player. Why would they do this? It's such a great looking vehicle now from all angles except for those wheels.
What does "optional AWD" mean? Like you can disengage it just like a conventional 4WD?
Hey Anastasiah, "Optional AWD" means Honda offers versions of the CR-V with AWD, as opposed to the standard FWD configuration. Be aware CR-V's equipped with AWD will be sold at a premium as compared to models equipped with FWD. The CR-V either comes exclusively with FWD or AWD, you are not able to switch between configurations. We hope this helps!
I wish they would have a engine from Accord 2L turbo 252hp 10speed!!!!))) Think about that Honda !!!!
Does anyone know what the carrying capacity is (weight)?
So... the 1.5 turbo costs more, adds complexity with great probability of future problems, and in your test doesn't improve gas mileage. If I don't live in Denver, why would I want the turbo again? Can you get the naturally aspirated engine in the higher trim levels?
Of course your milage will vary. Besides slightly better mpgs and power, the main advantage is HP and torque at lower revs, so better for real world driving. Turbos do add complexity, but Honda usually puts a premium on long-term reliability and I've personally had good experiences with some of their newer tech lasting a long time.
Phrancis5 I have the same worries about the turbo charged engine. I have no experience with turbo build but I've heard that after time maintenance costs will be more high
@Hasan I bought a 1st year Honda model with a new complicated vtec and active torque vectoring sys back in 96. After more than 20 years of hard driving every system on the Prelude Type SH still works perfectly and has needed no repairs beyond consumables. It's parked next to the new turbo CR-V that I bought a month ago. Ask me again in 20 yrs if that turbo was unreliable. LOL!! It's not highly boosted and as long as you keep up with oil changes, the bearings should be just fine. Every major Honda model will have a turbo now, so I'm confident they've done their homework in making it reliable.
Phrancis5 thanks a lot. After your encouraging message I have to tell you that my choice now is clear to get a new crv with turbo charger. I trust Honda they make a great cars. ,👍
Looks good
This or Ford Escape titanium?
I'd be on board if it had ventilated seats and at least offer the pano roof.. Such a disappointing oversight to me considering they added things like rear foot activated lift gate. Especially considering competitors offer it and this is an entirely new generation.
W-_-T Same here. Give the U.S the panoramic roof option like the Canadians have. Also, I love my cooled seats in my current car (must have in Texas). It's a shame Honda didn't at least include those.
I prefer a regular size sunroof. It's a better option here in Florida and other hot sunny states like Texas and Arizona. The sun shade on a traditional sunroof can block out all the light, not like some of the translucent shades on the panoramic variety. It gets hot here in Florida most of the year and the sun and heat can beat on you and keep the car hot if it can get through all the time. Also the panoramic sunroofs can start to creak, rattle and even leak affecting long term reliability. I see thepanoramics as not necessarily an improvement. Honda made a good choice not jumping on the latest trend.
I really like my crv and it is fast
too bad we can't get the 2.4L here in canada
yes, you can.. it's the LX trim...
Bryan Marques not in CANADA, even the lowest trim lx-2wd comes with 1.5 turbo here
He changed the shirt almost didn't recognize him
Honda rules
Wow, I'd love to see you review a Tesla Model X. Now get ready for some real whining!
next time turn ur mic up
Just about perfect? As the X-Files say "I want to believe".
Why is there no mention of the interior sound level? Is the car quiet? I want a quiet car where I can hold a conversation with my spouse and not raise my voice. How's this car for sound?
A perfect car would be quiet. Very quiet.
And I'd give up a passenger side height adjuster for it.
I'd pay more for it.
Why is this not an important attribute in a car review? I don't understand.
TruthHasSpoken get the Mazda cx5 2017. It is more quieter than the Honda Crv.
I have the 2017 EX it's quiet but has its moments when speeding up on the highway with a rumble, but while cruising on the highway it's okay. I was in a parking lot waiting for the missus, a guy a few cars down decided that everyone should hear his rap crap and rolling up the windows, not a sound. So pretty good.
Amen to your nagging about the fuel economy. Car manufacturers SHOULD BE ACCOUNTABLE for their misleading fuel economy ratings. Especially honda saying this crv gets 27 in the city. I'm getting 24 at its best. "Impact them where it hurts". In this case, lower their car value over time. They will do something when it hurts.
Any 2017 crv owner encountered any vibration issue? www.crvownersclub.com/forums/137-2017-present-official-specs-features-etc-gen-5/128729-2017-cr-v-touring-vibration.html
Oh no your wrong the 2016 handles better and has better steering fell
Try to kick that gas pedal down at 55 to pass someone it ain't going anywhere
yes front display is hard to see and harder in the sun light .
I got 600 mile on my 2017 touring , did not pay attention to the cheap 18 inch tire on it
they have to come off.
Why put halogen fog light when all other bulbs are LED .
Why the sun-visors don't slide out to block sunlight on front windows
Why only 1 seat back holder thing ( I forget the name of that )
My wife wears a size 6 shoe , I is ridicules and silly to watch her try to open
the rear hatch by kicking her feet under the rear , it wont work for her .
The wife has the 2016 EX L with Nav we love it, why 2016 door fell heaver 2017 door are even bigger , 2016 had fake chrome door handles in side 2017 has fake cheap plastic door handles the chrome looked much better why it the 2017 gear selector so like loose and cheap felling , In our opinion Honda has taken the CRV in the wrong direction
just base on two thing 1 handing 2 steering fell
Just a thought the Honda sensing is going to get someone hurt it is not reliable works
some times and you have to pay attention to the speed your at , and the time you need it the most say like in heavy rain it shut down
it's was my phone
lol "sized larger" its actually smaller than the rogue
This is a CR-V, fucktard.
Dont buy honda crv 2017 and 2018. Serious heating issues, Honda shamefully handled this horribly. Shame on you honda. These are on spot reviews. To find more you have to do detail consumers report.
