It is no wonder that the Honda CR-V is one of Honda’s top-selling models. Boasting impressive versatility, uncompromised performance and excellent fuel economy, this compact SUV has been a driving favourite for Canadians for many years. Sam Ibrahim, Sales and Leasing Consultant at Village Honda in Calgary, Alberta is here to share with you five of his most favourite features of this award-winning SUV that has a sixth sense for safety.

The 2021 Honda CR-V comes standard with a 1.5-litre, 16-valve, Direct Injection, DOHC, turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine that reserves power until asked and is mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) that together account for less dollars spent at the pump.

Since 2020, all CR-V trims are equipped with Honda’s innovative safety technology called Honda Sensing. This technology has been thoughtfully researched and is designed to help make you a better driver and is no doubt, where the CR-V shines far above its competitors. The intuitive technology of Honda Sensing includes: Forward Collison Warning (FCW), Land Departure Warning (LDW), Road Departure Mitigation (RDM), Collision Mitigation Braking (CMBS), Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS), and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow. The CR-V’s safety sense doesn’t stop there. Its design has leading class passive and active safety features as well. Passive safety features on the CR-V include Advance Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure, Six standard airbag, 3-point height adjusted from seat belts with automatic tensioning and 3 point rear seat belts and HondaLink Emergency Response System to name a few. The Honda CR-V also has passive safety features extended to pedestrian safety with an energy-absorbing hood and fenders and deformable wiper pivots. Active safety features equipped on the CR-V include Controlled Braking, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control, Tire Pressure monitoring System (TPMS), Hill Start Assist and Auto high beam.

Inside the cabin, you will find impressive cabin space equipped with innovative technology to ensure that your every drive is a pleasure. Whether you have your CR-V to yourself or share with a family, the CR-V has mastered utilization of its cabin space to make sure that comfort is not compromised no matter the number of occupants. The rear doors open wide and there is ample legroom in the second row, with hidden storage under the carpeted floor. Available cargo space is class leading in the Honda CR-V ensuring that this versatile SUV is a jack-of-all-trades. Standard push button start and remote engine start pave the way for convenient technology equipped on the Honda CR-V. You’ll also find the convenience of dual-zone auto climate control with cabin air filters, AppleCarPlay and Android auto as standard features.

As a Canadian favourite, it is also exciting to note that the Honda CR-V is made in Canada. Since 2012, the CR-V has been manufactured alongside the Honda Civic at the Alliston, Ontario plant that opened in 1986. With features only available in Canada on certain CR-V models, you can be completely assured that the Honda CR-V has been made for Canadians.
