Honda CR-V - Review, Specs, Pricing, Videos and More

It’s hard to overstate just how important the battle of the 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid vs 2023 Honda CR-V Hybrid is.

Last year, Honda sold 238,155 CR-V models in America alone. Not too bad for a year rife with inventory shortages. That makes the CR-V the 7th most-sold vehicle in America.

For Toyota, the news is even better. The brand was able to deliver 399,941 RAV4s to American customers in the same year, making it the 4th best-selling vehicle.

The secret to the success of these two small SUVs is value and choice. Both auto manufacturers offer plenty of configurations, at price points that fit the wants and needs of many families. Some of the more popular choices amongst consumers are the hybrids.

Too hot? Too cold? Honda’s newest CR-V trim might be just right.

The Honda CR-V is no doubt one of Honda’s most important models, if not, the most important model it sells. Yet, the trim lineup has been a bit awkward. The LX, EX, and EX-L trims are fairly straightforward, yet the in-demand CR-V hybrid has only come in fairly spartan Sport trim, or top-of-the-line Sport Touring trim. Honda’s rectifying this with the new Sport-L trim.

Sitting between the topmost gas-only EX-L trim and the range-topping Sport Touring trim, the Sport-L will appeal to buyers who want a CR-V hybrid with more options than standard but don’t need everything that comes with the topmost trim. For example, the Sport Touring is AWD only, whereas the Sport-L can be had in FWD or AWD.

We couldn’t wait to drive the 2023 Honda CR-V. Literally.

Jump back to last summer. Under the mad genius of managing editor Mike Schlee, we here at AutoGuide rounded up 11 compact SUVs for the single biggest test of the year, covering the largest segment of the market. While the 2023 Honda CR-V had already bowed, the reality of press fleets and scheduling meant the outgoing fifth-generation model took part. Spoiler alert: it did not win, or even place on the podium.

The Honda CR-V wasn’t the first compact crossover invented, but it has been the America’s best-selling SUV ever since it was introduced back in 1997.

On top of that, the CR-V has stood as Honda’s best-selling model for the last five years. With these facts in mind, it’s no surprise that Honda went to great lengths to develop the sixth-generation CR-V, which debuts for the 2023 model year with gas and hybrid powertrains.

Unlike its predecessor, the 2023 Honda CR-V will finally offer a hybrid powertrain for buyers in Canada (as the CR-V Touring Hybrid). But in the U.S., Honda is dropping the Hybrid name from this SUV making the fuel-sipping powertrain standard on the Sport and Sport Touring trim levels. For this first-drive opportunity, Honda offered up the fully loaded Sport Touring as well as some comparative seat time in a 2032 CR-V EX-L and a 2022 CR-V Hybrid.

So, you’ve decided to purchase a brand new Honda CR-V. But which trim are you going to get? The EX or the EX-L?

Honda’s popular CR-V compact SUV is all-new this year and looks to gain ground on increasingly tough competition. To help streamline the model, just two trims are available at launch in the United States, the EX and EX-L. In Canada, there’s a bit more choice as the lineup consists of the LX, Sport, and EX-L.

Below we will examine how to the trims differ (or do not differ) in eight key categories. Hopefully this will help you decide which trim is the right choice. Please note, for the purposes of this comparison we are not including the various CR-V Hybrid variants.
