The 2021 Honda CR-V is a hybrid SUV with AWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the Gen 5 LCI generation. The Hybrid AWD is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured Hybrid AWD version develops 215 hp and 315 Nm (232 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 8.8 seconds, which is measured, with performance geared more toward normal driving than acceleration. Top speed is listed at 180 km/h (112 mph). Its power output is close to the peer average. Its acceleration is close to the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 6.0 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 57.0 litres (15.1 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 137 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,621 mm (181.9 in) in length, 1,855 mm (73.0 in) in width, and 1,679 mm (66.1 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,661 mm (104.8 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 497 litres (17.6 cu ft), expanding to 1,084 litres (38.3 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,667 kg (3,675 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 750 kg (1,653 lb). That cargo volume is about 5% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby hybrid SUV models from the same period, the 2021 Honda CR-V is strongest on price, while towing capacity stands out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
