2026 Honda CR-V Sport-L

The CR-V is Honda's compact SUV, a family hauler that competes with the Toyota RAV4, Nissan Rogue, and Mazda CX-5. The CR-V drives with a composed, planted feel, and its steering is accurate and well-weighted for a compact SUV. The ride is smooth and well-controlled over most surfaces, though the hybrid models can feel a bit firm over sharp bumps. Inside, the CR-V offers a spacious cabin with comfortable seats, a user-friendly layout, and generous cargo space for its class. Honda Sensing, including adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist, is standard, and higher trims add a large touchscreen and wireless phone charging. Leather seats and a power tailgate set the Sport-L apart from the Sport, while skipping the Sport Touring's larger wheels and premium audio. Its hybrid 2.0L I4 hybrid makes 204 horsepower and returns 37 mpg combined}, so you get brisk off-the-line response without frequent gas station stops. The 18-inch gloss-black wheels and orange stitching inside give this trim a sportier look without sacrificing ride comfort.
