HONDACR-V 2016 - 2019

　　After years of leading the SUV market in the U.S., Honda CR-V returned in 2016 with a new generation. The new, bold and sophisticated styling features a frontal fascia dominated by two headlights that looked like some samurai eyes. Its overall design was bold and sophisticated and started debates. It was a love-it or hate-it design.

　　Inside, there was plenty of room for everybody. The flat-floor in the rear made the access easier and offered better comfort even when three adults were seated. Inside, the dashboard was mounted into a lower position, with a very easy to read instrument cluster. The infotainment unit didn't match those which were already installed on the Civic from the same era since they couldn't be paired with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

　　Depending on the market, the 2018 CR-V had five engine options and few gearboxes available. It was the first CR-V to boast a gasoline turbocharged engine, on the 1.5-liter version. It also kept the older 2.4-liter and 2.0-liter but upgraded to the newest emission standards. The 1.6-liter turbodiesel engine was updated above the previous generation and a Hybrid version was added.

　　For the transmission, the CR-V was offered as a 2WD or 4WD. For the hybrid, it had a CVT only, but for the others had either a 6-speed manual or a 9-speed automatic.
