2021 Honda CR-V EX Walk Around Review

[@chief8079]

I love how the CR-V has more overall cargo room than a CX-9 despite being 18" shorter. Just goes to show how practical it is.

[@oldbenexplains5287]

Another great review! Thanks. My wife and I got a 2018 CR-V EX AWD more than 2 years ago and it's been a great car for us. Nice fancy features with the EX as you described like heated seats, moonroof, etc. Great car. Very large cargo space with the rear seats folded. Turbo engine has good power and yet still good mpg.

[@grumpyoldphart7325]

Bought a new CR-V EX-L based on your reviews. After 500 miles it is a O.K. Here are some things they need to correct. First, add a slip pocket/strap to drivers visor for plaquards like disabled cards. Second, need to add a pull handle to passenger “A” pillar to assist in entry. Third, the storage area in center console should be enclosed so it can be used to keep stuff. The “flip” sliding shelf is gimmicky and does not offer any practical use.

Hey Chris, I bought my crv yesterday and honestly went absolutely crazy trying to figure out the anchors in the back seat for a car seat so I could instal my sons. I think it would be super helpful if someone explained how this works in a video because I could not find one last night that covered this. It might save someone a hour if you cover this.

Nice car. I looked at the CRV’s the other day. Do u think the EX-L is better than the EX with cloth? I’m in CA. I kinda liked the cloth. They’re both heated. But I did prefer the feel of the leather steering wheel in the EX-L. Any opinions would be appreciated!

[@CrazyHondaChris-H18]

If recalling correctly it’s roughly a $2500 difference between the two trims for five more features. Just ask yourself if these will have a great impact on your daily driving.

Do you thing the Crv is more big than rav 4, hello from miami, great video.👍🏻

[@CrazyHondaChris-H18]

Both of these SUVs offer above-average cargo space for the segment, but the Honda CR-V has more than the Toyota RAV4. The CR-V features 39.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and 75.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. Thank you for watching.

[@jj5515]

I personally love the quality feel of the CRV when you step foot into it. Exterior is finally looking better. The New Rav4 is nice on the outside but lacks that quality feel on the inside. We have both 2019 Vehicles....

[@CrazyHondaChris-H18]

I appreciate you sharing with everyone that's considering both vehicles. Thank you for your support and watching!

[@chickenlips605]

I too have always thought the crv felt a little more solid and liked the way it drove a bit more compared to the rav, but I liked Toyota’s included maintenance plan and they would negotiate more. Cant go wrong with either one❤️
