I've owned 7 Hondas. My daughter just bought this one and it is by far, the most comfortable car I've ever sat in. These seats are unbelievably comfortable.

Just purchased my brand new 2024 c r v hybrid sport- L in Canyon River blue. I absolutely love it !it is very quiet and I love the ride feels high end. I had owned 3 CRVs in the past.

[markim]

Just purchased a 2024 CR V Hybrid Sport L. Absolutely love this car! Honda has knocked it out of the park!!

I lost my 2015 Honda CRV when was tboned me in a june collision(no personal injuries). I loved my 2015 model and had intended to drive it a few more years. I did not intend to buy another Honda but after test driving the 2023 touring hybrid, I fell in love with this car and I am not sorry for my purchase. i like the instrumentation much more than my 2015 model and it drives well and is super quiet which I appreciate. I have pretty much the same opinion on the vehicle. It's my first Hybrid vehicle and like the way that it drives.

The passenger seat is power also in our 2024 CRV Hybrid Sport-L, in the USA.

[tyronejohn]

a very good car good mileage in my sport touring getting up to 43mpg good handling and braking is better than kia & hynandi

[Mark-oz]

I purchased a 2024 CRV Hybrid after test driving a new Toyota RAV.
Both nice but the Honda fit and finish is much better.

[bigbufobufo]

I’ve grown used to the reversing sound on these Honda hybrids. I’ve heard them in the parking lots to know it’s a Honda hybrid. It sounds futuristic.

[astro]

Wow!! I'm surprised you don't have at least 100k subscribers! This is a quality review. Reminds me of the Topher and Tedward's channels haha.

[johnmartin]

Awesome vehicle. Both Honda and Toyota are extremely reliable.

[shawnwinget]

Looking at getting a Sport hybrid. Waiting for the local dealer to get one in that I can drive one but I am almost certainly going to get one. Currently have a Bronco Sport which I love, it's just a cool looking rig. But I live in WA and gas is almost $5 a gallon. The BS gets around 23 around town so getting upper 30's to 40 will be really nice. Hoping for urban gray as they have one in transit.

Thank you for this review! I’m looking to get the same model with front wheel drive. Mainly do city and highway driving in Texas so not too worried about snow.

[rickytecon]

Thank you. Going this week to test drive this model.

[DrJake]

Thanks Paul. Very informative. I use to work in Wooster and drove by Honda in College Hills for years.

[jefff]

thanks very much for an actually good owner's review!

[bogscab]

Thanks, we also got the same CR-V model last month. I'm glad.

[sabrinasaldivar]

I bought one last month exactly like yours for 41k. I think you got a pretty good deal. I was almost sure there were no mark ups on mine but I was wrong. I'm in Houston, TX.

[mustafahussain]

I bought 2023 crv EXL it cost me around 39500 and it’s worth extra features and brown leather damn best decision so far

If you have pets, I like the louder noise to alert them to move. Yes, you need to train them first about the dangers of cars.

The "B" mode will not save on brake pads and rotors. The brakes on this hybrid CR-V are drive-by wire, so the braking is controlled by the computer and it will use all regenerative braking if it can.
I'm not sure how the "B" mode works on the CR-V hybrid, but my 2002 Prius throws energy away by spinning the engine in "B" mode. It somewhat reduces battery charging (because it is throwing some of the energy it could put into the battery as heat and noise) and will destroy MPG.
