The Honda CR-V is the best selling SUV in the world! And now, with the new generation, Honda is making a bold move. It removed the diesel engine from its lineup and replaced it with a hybrid version.

How about 'regular' SUV? See my video with the 2019 Volkswagen Touareg R-line: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ66dn-BibZkhrc

So good that I bought a 2022 version here in the UK (The Gen 6 is being introduced here towards the end of the year I think). Loving it so far. They face lifted it a little in 2021 I think and improved some of the specs. It's a lovely drive.

[@Glen.Danielsen]

Outstanding narration, brother! Great, helpful review. Thanks so much.

[@Mladen1804]

Hi,thans for rewiev, i have Honda CRV-Hybrid for one month and i can confirm that this car is TOP.....

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

Nice review, never let a little rain stop you. Looking forward to when this is for sale in North America.

[@kas7777]

Your the only person in KZbin that has given a proper explanation of this cars drive train. I think I will avoid the hybrid and just buy the normal 1.5 petrol cvt. Thank you

[@MaciejDrelichowski]

Paul, fantastic movie. You are developing continuously and this review is made fantastic both in an easy watching the storyline but as well making the movie itself. I also own M2 since a week. Enjoyed your movies especially one on the mustang M2 dilemma. Congrats, you got my sub, and success!

[@n.p.3472]

Most reliable hybrid engine on the market. This hybrid engine came from the Accord Hybrid Tech 2014. 6 years of reliability and efficiency. Highly recommended from an Accord Hybrid Tech G9 2014 owner.

[@lesterbrown9692]

Great review

[@laurenappa7233]

The best review of this vehicle I’ve seen. Thank you!

[@me109cito5]

Agree!!

[@tonygrecu666]

Very good comments and useful too!

[@davidjmcintyre5981]

Great video.... do you plan to drive the Toyota rav 4 hybrid?

[@TheGhs1]

Great work,how reviews should be done .

[@tr7287]

Thanks

[@JKOOLjam1234]

The main thing I hate about this vehicle is the main infotainment screen. The screen surface is large, but the actual usable area is so tiny, and the resolution is whack... If only they'd fix that

[@dansorescu5720]

Test drive it yesterday in Timișoara and really enjoyed it. It was an all wheel drive, top of the line model. I have to mention I am not a sporty driver, so for me the car fits well. I test drove the Toyota Rav 4 a few weeks ago , and although it's a better looking car, the Honda seems to drive smoother. The only setback is the price.

[@honeybadgermaldog7545]

I hope it comes to the US soon. Really want to make a decision on the honda crv hybrid vs toyota rav4 hybrid

[@TunedIntoCars]

You should wait. I've heard from a friend that drove both cars, one after the other, that the RAV4 isn't as smooth and refined as the CRV. In the sense that when the petrol engine kicks in, in the RAV4, you can really feel it, as the car 'shivers' a little and it gets a bit annoying after a while.

[@honeybadgermaldog7545]

Tuned Into Cars! Talk about resale and reliability tho

[@rncondie]

I own a 2019 Rav 4 XLE hybrid It is a nice smooth ride. Keep in mind Toyota has been in the hybrid business for 20+ years. The eCVT is superior to a pulley and belt system in the Honda.

[@alishokrollahi4944]

Which one is better? Rav4 hybrid or this one? Please help! In terms of fuel efficiency and reliability?

[@TunedIntoCars]

I haven't driven the RAV4 yet and I've only driven the CR-V for about 1 week. So I can't really comment on reliability. Check the forums, see what actual owners think about both cars

[@andreitudoroprea9733]

Salut! Cati km faci pe autostrada cu un plin de carburant? Masina cu 4 oameni si bagaje la o viteza de 120 sa zicem...?

[@TunedIntoCars]

Consumul pe care l-am obținut eu îl găsești în clip. Nu știu să-ți zic cat ar lua mașina în condițiile de care zici tu, pentru că n-am incercat.

[@xinghoney8314]

I would be nice to add info about battery warranty.

[@andrzejp8782]

The battery is so small, that it doesn't have a separate warranty. It's a useless car as you can't charge the battery of the grid.

[@xinghoney8314]

@@andrzejp8782 I thought so too. All non plugin hybrids have this problem of small batteries that come with no warranty and they have negligible effect on fuel economy or efficiency in the long run.

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

@@xinghoney8314 Not so. In the US the hybrid batteries and related hybrid components have an 8 year, 100,000 mile (10 year, 150,000 miles in California) warranty. The battery may be small but it means when the vehicle is stopped no gas is being consumed, and to start moving the battery powers the electric motor until gas power kicks in. That's why hybrids get the best mileage in city driving. 🙂

[@xinghoney8314]

@@rizzlerazzleuno4733 I am not complaining about Hybrid efficiency, but the lack of transparency. I meant that there is no mechanism to check the state of the battery in hybrid vehicles if they are below 70% of their capacity or not. I hear alot of Toyota Hybrid batteries falling below 70% and users have no clue to use the warranty even though the battery failed. No transparency there.

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

@@xinghoney8314 I agree that the hybrids should have a battery "life" meter, but I expect that as long as the hybrid system continues to operate correctly I doubt the manufacturer is going to replace the battery under warranty until the hybrid system quits functioning, which may well be near 100% no storage capacity. At what point in the battery life would you expect the manufacture to replace it? That percentage would need to be written into the warranty, and probably should be. Apparently all hybrids will run OK on gas power only, but of course you lose the savings when you can operate briefly on stored electricity.

[@ocalakid55]

Its a shame that the CRV doesn't have a button to use the GAS engine to charge the batteries directly like the Honda Clarity . Also I would miss my HD Surround Vision . Makes backing up or pulling into a parking space.

[@kenhoward3512]

As a series hybrid, the engine is always charging the battery - it doesn't need a button for that. My understanding is that the vehicle runs totally on battery power at speeds up to about 45 mph, though the engine is continuously running, sending power to the generator motor (or to the drive wheels directly at speeds over 45).

[@REPUBLI_CAN]

When is this coming to America🇺🇲

[@TunedIntoCars]

It's supposed to come this year

[@REPUBLI_CAN]

@@TunedIntoCars thank you, I'll wait and save till then. I'm done with my V6 and gas prices in California are ridiculously high😤

[@jeffchristie1541]

CRV is nice but in that sector price bracket you cant beat the peugeot 3008/ 5008 both cars are just brilliant in everyway !

[@oldedwardian1778]

Now why the hell would you agree with someone who prefers, LOW, LOUD AND FAST CARS?

[@TunedIntoCars]

Who said you should agree with me?

[@Nickoboss29]

Obviously the rav4 2019 la better

[@TunedIntoCars]

Haven't driven one but I've heard quite the opposite

[@Nickoboss29]

@@TunedIntoCars the rav4 has better styling, less body roll, more space ecc ecc...

[@TunedIntoCars]

Better styling doesn't really make a car better or worse. I can't say about the other things you mentioned, but I have heard that in the Toyota it's quite noticeable when the car switches the petrol engine on and off. You don't feel that in the Honda.

[@Nickoboss29]

@@TunedIntoCars listen to me: the rav4 has quite better acceleration , more space,more technology and more reliability.

[@TunedIntoCars]

Again, I can't argue with you because I haven't driven the RAV4. But again, reliability. How do you know that? Both cars have just been released, there's no way of knowing which is more reliable

[@Sherukka]

Way too inefficient!

[@TunedIntoCars]

What exactly did you find ineficient?

[@Sherukka]

Tuned Into Cars! The real consumption figures reported after test drives.

[@TunedIntoCars]

6.4 mixed (70% of driving done around town) is very good actually. On long journeys you can get very close to 5%. Only diesels can beat that (barely) and diesels are slowly going away.

[@skratchinator]

2 words: oil dilution.

[@durio8885]

The Asian American Man Experience this one is a hybrid

[@theeventguru]

That whats holding me back from getting it. Its worse in colder countries but is it worth the risk?

[@thegrafas1995]

This is 2 l Atkinson cycle engine, non turbo that's why it is not effected by oil dilution

[@yaushaas]

Haris mak is right. Don't spew out false information dude.

[@andrzejp8782]

This is not a plug-in hybrid!. Any hybrid that is not plug-in is a nonsense. Look for Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV - it's way better and way cheaper.

[@TunedIntoCars]

Nobody said this is a plug-in hybrid in the first place.

[@andrzejp8782]

@@TunedIntoCars I think you didn't get it. The point is that buying a new hybrid that is not plug-in, is just plain stupid. Those cars are the dinosaurs and will die very soon.

[@TunedIntoCars]

You said and I quote ' This is not a plug-in hybrid!'. I replied to that point you made. As to the other one, I would prefer a plug-in hybrid, like I've said in the video, in order to maximise battery use, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see how the market evolves. But considering that most of these new hybrid SUV / crossover vehicles are not plug-in hybrids, I don't see them going away that fast.

[@yatimes6979]

Non, le CRV Hybride est de loin, meilleur que le Mitsubishi Outlander Phev. Il est plus confortable, plus agréable, plus logeable malgré son gabarit. Meilleur châssis, mieux fini et mieux construit. Une technologie plus avancée qui utilise avec le génie des ingénieurs Honda un système entre l'Hybride façon Toyota et un Hybride rechargeable, sans recharger, et c'est ça le plus grand avantage. Il n'y a plus de boîte de vitesse traditionnelle, une nouveauté et une avancée que seul Honda sait faire. Et enfin, c'est un HONDA pour les gens sympathiques et détendu ^_^

[@ognjencorovic]

This car is Sooo boring to drive
