2015 Honda CR-V EX

The 2015 CR-V is a compact SUV that slots between the smaller HR-V and the larger Pilot in Honda's lineup. It competes with the Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape, and Subaru Forester in the crowded compact crossover segment. The CR-V's engine is smooth and willing, and the continuously variable transmission keeps it refined around town. The ride is comfortable and composed, though the cabin lets in some road noise on the highway. Inside, the CR-V offers a spacious rear seat and a large cargo area with a low load floor for easy loading. The EX is the mid-range CR-V, adding a power moonroof, heated front seats, and the 7-inch touchscreen display over the base LX. Its 2.4L I4 makes 185 horsepower and pairs with a CVT that keeps the all-wheel drive version smooth and responsive in daily driving, earning 28 mpg combined. Honda's LaneWatch camera on the passenger mirror is standard here, giving you a live curb-side view when you signal right.
