I've had my 2022 CRV is still Amazing. I have 0 complaints. It's a Honda. I will be updating to a newer CRV just because I love them so much.

I tested CRV, RAV4 and CX5. Did not like the seats in CX5, uncomfortable and also the trunk is very small. The RAV4 was very loud at high speeds and did not like the hard suspension. Found CRV the best, quiet. Great seats and very nice suspension and a large trunk. Bought the new CRV. A new RAV4 is just as expensive as Honda in Germany.

Just got my new 2024 CR-V EXL yesterday! (Platinum White) It shimmers like a Diamond!!! It is amazing and beautiful!!! 🚗🚗🚗🚗😎

That’s an access panel on the interior side of the gas exterior door. The loop cable there is an emergency release for the exterior door for whatever reason it doesn’t unlock. There’s also a funnel included to fill the tank in case you run out and that funnel can be found in the spare tire well. Great video! Keep it up!

26.3K subscribers! You did this singlehandedly, Kenny! Good for you! That CR-V is a FINE vehicle. Attractive, and well executed. I can see why it's such a popular seller for sure!

A heated steering wheel would be nice on the EXLs and a universal Garage door for the price.

Just bought one 800 miles ago and we love it got the platinum white my wife loves the sparkles and smooth quiet ride had a 2009 exl and it was awesome also. Honda has got my vote. Couldn’t be happier thanks for the great review!!❤

I've owned CRVs since they came out in 97..I currently own a 2015 with 160, 000 miles on it. A cylinder sensor went out at 130, 000. Other than that imo the best little suv out there..can't go wrong with a Honda..

Another well done review. Congrats on hitting 26k subscribers! It amazes me that Honda does not option in a heated steering wheel in this trim level. You can get one in a lower trim Forester. For most features I think the Hyundai Tucson is probably is the best for the price. Granted Honda has the better reputation for reliability. Hopefully all the problems with the 1.5L have been resolved. CRV is nice but I would rather get a Passport with the V6 if I bought a Honda. Pilot if I needed a third row.

Another great review and video Kenny! Congrats on 26k! I like this suv a lot but I agree with you that Honda should include the ventilated seats, heated wheel and the camera. No ventilated seats is a hard no way for me. Hoping that you are doing so well!

Great video! Very well done. Speaking speaking very clearly helps.

Great review. I'm not sure why tf Honda put all the goodies into the hybrid. I just got the exl and its plenty fine exept for the power which is routed through a cvt transmission which just feels like a very long first gear, low power output plus a cvt u cant help but get smooth shifts. For the price Honda is asking they definitely couldve modified their 2.4 that they have from previous models or just just make the 2.0 turbo charged. Coming from Jeep im used to a bit more pick up when you press on the gas but you cant beat the ergonomics The crv just feels ridiculously spacious, doors open at 90 degrees, also the Honda peace of mind (that the thing will never leave you stranded like my wifes jeep did...twice). I guess the trade off for that engine is great gas mileage. I think Honda thought no one will be peeling out in a crv so they fore-went a larger engine but there are moments when you feel for a spirited drive and its a slight let down. For that you def would be better served putting it in sport. How the transmission holds up over time esp with the turbo, only time will tell. When you think close to $40k, and all youre getting is a 2 liter....Honda is definitely knows they could get away with murder so they did.

Excellent video! You did your homework before doing the review, unlike some other reviewers who just wing it. We're currently driving a 2016 Accord EX-L but would like to get a CR-V. Thanks for your review!

[barrynordstrom]

I like the CRV, but in Canada, the only interior color we can get is black. The Rav4 has more choice for colors. My advice, try out both, I dont think there is a bad choice here. Im hearing hints that next year the turbo is only on base models, hybrids on all the others.

Every single Honda got the same front end. Interior is pretty good. Greetings

Disagree with your assessment of the hybrid about the refinement of the ICE coming on and shutting off. I’ve had the Sport Touring Hybird for a month now and that’s one of the reasons I chose the Honda vs the RAV4 hybrid! The hybrid is more powerful vs the non-hybrid CRV and gets better fuel economy yet is very refined and the E-CVT doesn’t drone vs other CVTs in the market!

can't select turn lights Off always, it's spring loaded & won't let you keep it set to Off, you can do this on many other vehicles

Just bought one 2 days ago. I had purchased a GMC Terrain on April 27th, only drove it 185 miles and the 9 speed transmission went out. Dealer fid try to get me in another one but i just got a refund and went straight to Honda. Got a much nicer vehicle in almost the same price

I love this car with one exception. The rear seats don't fold down flat. If I go camping that bump will make it hard for me to sleep in the cargo area.
