Predecessor | Honda CR-V (fifth generation) |
The sixth-generation CR-V was officially unveiled on 12 July 2022.[4] The prototype design and production process was done in Ontario, Canada before being shared to all Honda plants worldwide.[5] Mass production of the sixth-generation CR-V started off at Honda's Canadian plant in Ontario in September 2022, with U.S. plants started its production shortly at a later date.[6]
The sixth-generation CR-V is 69 mm (2.7 in) inches longer, with a 40 mm (1.6 in) longer wheelbase. The second-row seats received 15 mm (0.6 in) more legroom and can also recline up to 10.5 degrees.[7] Similar to the eleventh-generation Civic, Honda opted for a longer hood for visual reasons by moving the A-pillars rearward by 119 mm (4.7 in). The base of the A-pillars has also been moved 71 mm (2.8 in) outward and sit 35.6 mm (1.4 in) lower than the previous CR-V.[4]
Mechanical revisions compared to the preceding generation include a stiffer front subframe and repositioned steering rack to improve feel and accuracy. The rear subframe also gets stiffened to support the retuned multi-link suspension which features a 15 percent higher spring rate for the upper spring mount. The optional all-wheel drive system (marketed as Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System™), is capable of sending 50 percent of engine torque to the rear wheels for improved traction in slippery conditions such as in snow and mud. For the first time, the CR-V features hill descent control system increases off-road capability with more control on steep, slippery declines and drivers can select speeds under 19 km/h (12 mph).[4]
Three electrified versions of the CR-V are available globally, which are e:HEV power-split hybrid (marketed simply as Hybrid in North America), e:PHEV plug-in hybrid, and e:FCEV plug-in hybrid fuel cell. The e:HEV/Hybrid was available since the model's introduction, which uses a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle four-cylinder engine and e-CVT working with one or two electric motors and a 1.06 kWh lithium-ion battery for a total system output of 152 kW (204 hp; 207 PS).[8]
The CR-V e:PHEV debuted in China in April 2023 and has been exported to Europe. It is supplemented with a larger 17.7 kWh lithium-ion battery.[9][10] The CR-V e:FCEV was introduced as a low-volume model in the U.S. and Japan in February 2024.[11] A diesel engine option, previously available for the outgoing CR-V in some markets such as Europe, Thailand and the Philippines is no longer available.[12]
Unlike previous generations, the model is not offered in Japan (except for the low-volume CR-V e:FCEV since 2024) due to low sales of the fifth-generation model, and it was indirectly replaced by the smaller ZR-V.[13]

CR-V e:FCEV[edit]
In February 2024, Honda introduced the CR-V e:FCEV in the U.S. It is a plug-in hybrid electric, fuel cell version of the CR-V that is equipped with an front-mounted electric motor, two high-pressure hydrogen tanks with a total capacity of 4.3 kg (9.5 lb), a 17.7 kWh battery with plug-in charging capability, it has an EPA estimated driving range of 435 km (270 mi) and battery electric range of 47 km (29 mi). Compared to the regular CR-V, the e:FCEV model features a different front fascia, clear lenses for the taillights and e:FCEV badging.[11] The CR-V e:FCEV commenced production at the Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) plant in in June 2024. For the US market, the e:FCEV model is available only through leasing and its availability limited to the California state.[14]
