A popular compact SUV, the Honda CR-V has been a benchmark in its class. The standard powertrain is a 2.4L I-4, coupled to a 5-speed automatic. Standard safety items include ABS, VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist), and front side airbags. Three trim levels are offered: LX, EX and EX-L (EX with leather). All trim levels are offered with either FWD or Honda's Real Time(R) 4WD system. The CR-V has a surprisingly luxurious interior for its class.
