Effortless Performance and All-Wheel Drive Confidence

At the heart of this 2022 Honda Cr-V EX is a sophisticated 4 Cylinder Engine, specifically the Engine: 1.5L I-4 16-Valve DOHC w/Turbocharger. This powertrain is engineered to provide a spirited driving experience while maintaining the smooth delivery that suburban commuters crave.
