"By itself, the all-new CR-V delivers substantial improvements over its previous generation. The slightly longer and wider new model boasts a bolder stance, complemented by a more comfortable driving position with enhanced road visibility."
"The RS e:HEV combo of petrol and battery power not only felt meatier low down in the rev range but road noise was much less, as was the engine note. When compared to the previous generation, the new CRV is a far more refined beast."
"The CR-V is more than just a talented newcomer. Instead, it represents Honda’s culmination of decades of experience of designing and building crossovers. The 6th generation CR-V is an engaging crossover to drive, and does so while ticking all the practicality, livability and technology boxes for the 2023. It’s a solid combination, in which Honda customers will find a lot of value. "
"There’s a new look, with a more upright and aggressive front end, A pillars are pulled back and the glasshouse is taller for better outward visibility while wheels are 18- or 19-inches in diameter."
"With five generations of history to draw upon, Honda’s second most popular vehicle (after the Jazz) is back and literally bigger than ever. But wait there’s more, it sits on a totally new platform, has a new powertrain, new exhaust, fresh design (inside and out) and greater tech. "
"It’s a mature, sensible looking thing this updated CR-V. Apart from its body-coloured cladding and bigger wheels, the RS e:HEV also gets its own more aggressive looking honeycomb grille and piano black wing mirrors. The CR-V’s switchgear looks excellent, is well damped, and is laid out logically."
