The new model, which is for the first time being assembled at Honda of America Manufacturing’s plant in East Liberty, Ohio, where it shares a line with the Civic and Element, will cost from $US20,600 for the base 2WD CR-V LX version to $26,000 for the top 4WD EX-L. A navigation system with voice recognition and rear view camera is a $2,000 factory-fitted option.
The US-specification CR-V has a 166-horsepower, 2.4-litre, I4 engine with five-speed automatic transmission and vehicle stability assist, and comprehensive standard safety features, including side curtain airbags with roll-over sensors, front side airbags with occupant position detection system and anti-lock braking system are standard.
Two-litre petrol and 2.2-litre diesel engines and manual transmissions are available in other markets worldwide.
Previous US-market CR-Vs were sourced from both Japan and Honda’s Swindon plant in UK. Swindon ceased building US-specification models a while ago, though it continues to supply UK and European markets.
Worldwide, this latest CR-V is built in eight factories in seven countries and is sold in 160 countries in North America, Europe, Asia, South America and Africa.
