- Sixth-gen family SUV on sale now
On sale from today, September 1, the sixth-generation CR-V brings an all-new design, increased dimensions, more technology and a first-ever hybrid variant for Australia.
As detailed, the seven-grade CR-V range starts from $44,500 drive-away – up $6000 over the previous model – and tops out with the $59,900 drive-away E:HEV RS hybrid.
Unlike the Civic small car, Honda has sharpened the CR-V's drive-away pricing to be competitive with typical rivals on paper.
11
For example, the $59,900 drive-away CR-V E:HEV RS is similarly priced to a Nissan X-Trail Ti E-Power and Toyota RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid once on-road costs are added.
With two seven-seat variants available, the 60-millimetre longer CR-V aims to compete against larger mid-size SUVs, such as the seven-seat Mitsubishi Outlander, Nissan X-Trail and Hyundai Santa Fe – rather than the smaller RAV4, Mazda CX-5 and Volkswagen Tiguan, which the new Honda ZR-V is aimed at.
Like all Hondas, the new CR-V is backed by the brand's five-year/unlimited-kilometre warranty and five low-price services ($199 per visit).

Honda Connect connected-car functionality will be complimentary for five years, mirroring the likes of Kia and Hyundai – while others such as Toyota stick with shorter trials.
The new CR-V will remain sourced from Thailand, unlike the latest Civic, HR-V and ZR-V built in Japan.

Engine, drivetrain, and fuel economy
Under the bonnet, all ‘VTi’ variants have an unchanged 140kW/240Nm 1.5-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, matched to a CVT automatic transmission and front- or all-wheel drive.
Front-drive five-seat variants have a claimed fuel consumption of 7.1L/100km – down 0.3L – while the FWD seven-seat and VTi L AWD variants are unchanged at 7.3L/100km and 7.4L/100km, respectively.
The flagship turbo-petrol VTi LX AWD now consumes 7.7L/100km on the combined cycle – up 0.3L.
As with the Civic, Accord and ZR-V hybrids, the CR-V E:HEV RS combines a 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder petrol with an electric motor, for a 135kW and 335Nm total system output.

It is matched to an ‘E-CVT’ automatic transmission, and while an all-wheel-drive hybrid is available in the United States and South-East Asia, the Australian-spec model will be FWD-only at launch.
Fuel consumption is listed at 5.5L/100km for the CR-V E:HEV RS.
All variants support 91RON unleaded petrol and have a 57-litre fuel tank.
Five-seat petrol versions have a 1500-kilogram braked towing capacity, while seven-seat models are limited to 1000kg. The E:HEV RS hybrid has a lower 750kg limit.

Eleven airbags (dual front, knee, front and rear side, curtain, and front-centre) are fitted across the CR-V range, up from six in the previous model.
Seven-seat variants include full-length curtain airbags covering the third row.
