If you’re in the market for a new SUV, you may want to consider a hybrid model. Hybrids offer several benefits over traditional gas-powered SUVs, including better fuel economy, lower emissions, and reduced maintenance costs. Here we’ll take a closer look at the 2022 Honda CR-V Hybrid, one of the most popular hybrid SUVs.
Overview of the Honda CR-V Hybrid
The CR-V is Honda’s first SUV introduced to the world in 1996. However, the hybrid model has only been around for a few years. The Hybrid allows drivers to save fuel and emit less pollution into the air while still offering the utility of an SUV.
Unique Features
The newest model of the CR-V Hybrid carries forward all the same features that made its predecessors so great. Here are our favorite aspects of the CR-V Hybrid that we know you’ll love too.
Fantastic Gas Mileage
One of the most significant advantages of this hybrid SUV is the increased gas mileage. It achieves 40 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. That’s a substantial improvement over the traditional gas-powered CR-V, which only gets an EPA-estimated 28 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway. The ECON drive mode helps you get the most out of each tank, while the EV mode enables you to drive using only the electric motor.
Spacious Cabin
This car offers plenty of legroom and headspace for you and your passengers. The back seats also fold down to create 68.7 cubic feet of space. That means you can easily fit all your gear for a road trip or a weekend at the cabin.
Safety Features
The CR-V Hybrid comes with the Honda Sensing Suite, which has several advanced safety features that help keep you safe. These include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, the road departure mitigation system, and automated emergency braking.
Tons of Amenities
Thanks to the dual-zone automatic climate control system, you and your front-seat rider can stay comfortable according to each of your individual preferences. The front seats and steering wheel also have quick-heating technology to help warm you up during drives in chilly weather.
The vehicle also comes equipped with a wireless phone charger and USB charging ports to keep your phone charged up while you’re on the go. Last but not least, the hands-free power tailgate lets you open the back just by kicking your foot against the rear bumper, which is ideal when you have your arms full with groceries or gear.
Attractive Exterior Options
The CR-V Hybrid has you covered if you want to make a statement on the road. It’s available in several different exterior colors, and you can opt for several accessories that make the car even more visually appealing. For example, you can opt for sporty accents like the gloss-black grille and tailgate spoiler. You can also fit your CR-V for roof rails and crossbars that come in handy for transporting items like bike racks or extra luggage.
The Honda CR-V Hybrid is a terrific choice for anyone looking for a comfortable and practical SUV. With its excellent gas mileage, spacious cabin, and countless amenities, it has everything you need and more. Do you want to take the CR-V Hybrid for a spin?
