2023 Honda CR-V Hybrid | Review & Road Test

[@richardtausch2]

2 days ago I got my 2023 CRV Hybrid Sport AWD after literally waiting only a week and a half. It is QUIET, looks great, built tight as a drum, drives over road imperfections where you dont feel them, I am 6'3 and I have good clearance above my head, it has great take off speed, very peppy, I can put 6 suitcases in the cargo area with the back seat up which was a huge surprise! It is a smooth, comfortable ride, the engine area in front has a lot of roominess which is a surprise because most cars are packed tight in the engine area, this car is absolutely a winner!!

Hey thanks so much!

[@cw4623]

@@yesmikedanger You do an awesome job, Mike! I would appreciate if KBB focused more on the drive and ride quality aspects than they do. Acceleration, trans, and torque are all that are covered, when we'd love to hear detailed descriptions of road/wind noise, ride quality, steering weight. If those are ever covered, the extent is "The new Accord has a ride quality that is compliant" and... that's it. "Compliant" doesn't tell me anything. Compliant compared to what? What's your opinion on what is/isn't compliant? Does it float like a 70s Cadillac or 90s Buick? Is it as firm as an RDX or QX-50? Can you feel pitted roads or just potholes? Can you feel asphalt seams and crosswalk paint? And ditto for steering: Is it light enough that you can steer with a pinky? Or do you need to be a body-builder to turn the wheel?

[@yesmikedanger]

@@cw4623 love this input. Noted! I think with more descriptive aspects of the review comes with more experience. So as I develop further into this industry, I’ll be sure to dive deeper into those ride quality characteristics and observations. Thanks for checking out the video and your support!

Proud owner of new ’23 CRV Sport awd. Got mine in black which in my mind helps in goosing the swagger quotient here. So far I’m quite pleased with how the car comports itself. All the touchpoints exude a solid, substantial feel. Polished ride quality. Turns on a dime in tight urban environs. Getting decent MPGs of high 30s, with even some low 40s when using a light foot and utilizing the regen braking paddles driving around town. Really wish Honda would offer the CRV with a plugin hybrid option. Given that Honda removed the spare tire, there should be plenty of space under the cargo floor. Seems like a no-brainer to me since all the other manufacturers are moving in that direction. Come on Honda!...

Looks great! Far better than the previous version (all the new gen Hondas look great so far!). I just wish Honda (and some other Japanese brands) would keep up with the Koreans and Germans when it comes to technology. Both Honda and Toyota play it safe way to much with their tech. While that's admittedly great in some aspects, it's bad in others. Not a bad looking car, not bad tech, just not all that competitive with other brands. I mean, they're still using basically the same screens they have been since 2016.

[@techocrazy]

Honda's lane watch camera has been out since 2016 and maybe earlier. Did any of the Germans have this tech? I don't think so. Honda was also one of the early adopters of android auto.

[@rajatgupta4840]

Do u not hate its underpowered engine? dangerous and could be potentially fatal on freeways...There is no acceleration from crv engine if u are driving at 60 plus and if u need quick throllte response in emergency

[@Phrancis5]

@@rajatgupta4840 No not really. It's about mid-pack as far as acceleration, given that it's a reasonably priced compact family SUV with an acceptable power tradeoff given it's fuel economy. Put it in sport mode to help with throttle response and lower gearing. I mean I could argue to my wife that I NEED a Corvette for safely passing on the hwy LOL!

[@rajatgupta4840]

@Phrancis5 Ok..I felt it too underpowered while test driving. there was a situation when I was driving on a freeway and I spotted something( box) lying on my lane..I tried to change lane but both left and right lanes were occupied, so I tried to accelerate to quickly overtake those cars to somehow change the lane and avoid hitting that box...I was on 65 mph and immediately floored the accelerator but the engine just made very loud noises and didn't really accelerate in next 1-2 secs..somehow I dodged hitting that box by sharpely cornering in my lane but it was scary...I decided to not buy CRV and bought an acura RDX instead..So glad I put extra $8k...It might feel like a burden when u r buying the vehicle but in long run an extra 8k really didn't matter and you will feel happy that you bought a better and safer product...I hope u stay safe in ur CRV...Overall its a good buy but the engine is crappy...unless u end up in a dangerous situation u might not complain about the engine..it depends on luck thats why not everyone is unhappy and thats why it still sells in huge numbers

[@Phrancis5]

@@rajatgupta4840 Being on a test drive, you might not have put in in S mode or had the ECO button on. That mode severely dulls throttle response and it's hard to notice that it's on. Sure, I can't change how you feel, but that's a highly anecdotal incident where the overwhelming majority of SUVs in the same price/class would behave the same way. Someone could just as easily say they bought a Tesla Y performance for not that much more, because the RDX they test drove didn't have the same instant torque and acceleration. There's always gonna be a faster car, so the argument will never end. I have a very old VTEC stick shift honda coupe that I would absolutely rip through corners or pass cars in situations where I wouldn't try in a CRV, but I still daily the CRV because it's so roomy, comfy, and far better on gas. The CRV wouldn't be the most sold Honda if the general public felt the lack of power was such a huge compromise. It's not a sports car and comparing it to the smaller and more expensive performance-oriented RDX or turbo CX-5 is kinda silly.

In Canada comes with heated rear seats. B drive will not work when cruise control is used. No EV rebate for regenerative hybrids in Canada. Has brake hold which is amazing. Wiper arms need to be put in maintenance mode. Do not attempt to raise arms without using this mode. Also has wiper defrost mode to ensure wipers don’t freeze to window. All in all I’ve tried the RAV4 and yes its mileage is slightly better but the Honda sold me due to its quality and fit. It feels so much better than the RAV4. Try them both you will probably agree.

The lack of a pano sunroof, cooled seats, and hybrid availability only at the top trim is frustrating

[@jeffzhan548]

Pano sunroof is just more wind noise to me personally so I don't mind it. The ventilated seats is a big miss though as is the 360 camera. I suspect all the shortages are due to the lack of supply and chip shortages. To offer the hybrid on lower trims would be make it even more frustrating to even secure one. The wait on a RAV4 hybrid is 6-9 months from what my friend told me.

[@jawndice]

@@sharkhark I have a hybrid myself and those factors certainly affect the MPG. Hybrids are most gas-efficient on local flat roads, warm temps (around 60-70 degrees) and speeds up to 65 mph. Saying that hills and "other crap" doesn't affect the MPG is just an ignorant comment.

[@adambernstein9647]

New ’23 CRV Sport (AWD) owner here. I’m certain there’s a lot of variables that account for that, Brandon. Don’t despair just yet! I live in SF Bay Area and do a lot of mixed driving in both downtown SF and the backroads of the peninsula, with some freeway thrown in. So far averaging in the upper 30s combined. I’m realizing the best results when keeping a steady throttle and relaxing it prior to rolling to the stop lights. Using the regen braking paddle on the down hills. In those circumstances my urban, stop and go driving mileage bumps up to the low 40’s. My understanding is that the CRV’s engine has a fixed ratio gearset for the highway cruising - not a traditional CVT, and that this gearing is doing double duty when the inputs cause the engine to engage at lower speeds too, like acceleration or going uphill. If you can resist a heavy foot on the long freeway jaunts - I’m thinking you should be able to realize better MPGs, especially as the engine continues to break in. Hope this helps!

Honda stubbornly refuses to put certain high end features on a Honda if there's an equivalent in Acura One example recently was the differential on the civic si, which they removed only to add it to the Integra.. Poor planning imo, artificially gating features, and moving them back n forth between models or years will force customers to look elsewhere

[@canadude6401]

FWIW, I love my moonroof and I think 360 degree cameras are dumb. I like trusting my eyes going down the road personally, (not some 2D distorted camera) I even turned off the auto activation of my right side camera. Turning my head using mirror and looking out back side windows gives me a view of the entirety of the lane next to me. I've had over 600,000kms driven in 30 years with no accidents.

I have a 20 year old second generation Honda Crv in good shape. You can buy this Honda Crv and you could pass it to your children after 16 years

Great job and nice review. Honda CR-V is a great suv but I'll still go with the number one competitor Toyota RAV4 hybrid.

[@shenjw12000]

Thank you for demonstrating the loud engine noise is only in sport mode. It is much quieter in normal mode. Otherwise, it's a dealbreaker for me.

[@justanotherdude9391]

He demonstrated anc feature. This is active sound creation so the noise in fact is synthetic in sport mode and not the actual engine noise

[@adamnevis7636]

This fella who did this review is excellent a fantastic job! Does this model have a 360 camera?

[@charlessigmonjr.6552]

No, it doesn’t unfortunately.

[@yesmikedanger]

Thanks, Adam!

Had the past three CRV versions…loved them. Saw the newest CRV hybrid…absolutely beautiful…but the hybrid has no spare tire or run flat tires. If you happen be a a trip away from any dealer or service station and get a cut on the sideway of your tire or even a large puncture your stuck. The tire repair kit is a joke. Towing would be your only option. Toyota, Mazda, Kia etc, found room for a spare. Sorry but that’s a deal breaker for the Honda CR-V Hybrid so called Touring Version.

Excellent review!😸

Complete noob here, but what I get from this is that you can drive in "B" mode full time without damaging anything?

[@erenjeager9442]

I wanna buy a Honda CR-V. 🥰

[@upstatebernie4827]

Combined 37 mpg for an awd hybrid? I get 33 mpg with a '18 CRV, 160k miles, 1.5 turbo, awd. What gives Honda?

[@simonjoseph5731]

I think it can't get better than this when it comes to compact SUVs, still panaromic sunroof and 360 camera are missing in this one. Wish they included that 😒😒

[@rafars2246]

so many things missing, and pricing is beyond insane

[@garnerlibato4887]

@simon joseph - thats right even RAV4 higher trims got 360 sorround view, digital display rearview mirror, ventilated seats, fog lights (standard), spare tire.

[@elsapomasguapo]

Seems like they neuter Honda to try to justify Acura

[@rafars2246]

@@elsapomasguapo they didn't neuter the price. This is the biggest scam I've ever seen in the automotive industry

[@sharkhark]

​@@garnerlibato4887and most important? Real life mpg is from what I read often 38 to 43 mpg overall whereas some in CRV get only 28mpg not anything close to 39

UF1 11 minutes ago Let's see, things not on the crv that the competition offers: 1. Heads up display 2. 360 camera 3. Cooled seats 4. Panoramic roof And where the honda engineers placed the backseat reclining lever is just plain stupid! I test drove this vehicle yesterday, overall nice honda quality but the lack of options will lose them piles of sales to the competition

[@anthonyb1752]

Honda really needs to get with the times and offer larger infotainment screens.

[@veloz7860]

I like the 9 inch..big enough to show me what I need. It doesn’t feel like it’s gobbling up all the visual space above the dash. Now, if they styled it like the Telluride double side by side displays, that’s a whole other thing of beauty

[@Cakewalk.]

I would have been sold to this if only it has 2.0 instead of the loud 1.5

[@chrisb9478]

My friends wife bought a dark blue 2023 Touring Hybrid a few months ago. It looks great. They say it’s roomy, rides well and gets 40-41mpg, BUT they said it’s soo slow, it can’t get out of its own way when passing & climbing hills. We’ll stick with our Outback XT!

Hybrids get better fuel economy in city driving
