Just ordered the Advanced tier. Even if it looks like it has a lot of competition, it really doesn't. Sportage/Tucson are smaller, strange looking and lower quality overall. Tiguan/Kodiaq don't have the same level features, offer diesel engines in 2024 and have the same prices. X-trail is also strange looking and doesn't have same level features. XC60 is more expensive, first run build and offers 3.3 diesel (ridiculous). CX60 is more expensive and not updated in ages (Volvo cares only about electric cars now). So, really if you want a nice big SUV, with a modern engine and all the features, there is nothing better under 60k. You can go for a SH BMW X3 but you still pay 45k for a 4-5 years old car with no these many features.
Love the fact Honda provides the fuel consumption when the battery is depleted. I'm sick of all the 0.8-1.2l / 100 km ranges that other brands brag with. I also wonder what the 100+ km range PHEVs quote for consumtion. 0l/100km??
Toyota is chosen by those people who are not interested in the interior and exterior of the car, that is, the car will move them from point A to B. Honda is a much more progressive choice in every way! You won't like a Toyota after a Honda, and a Honda after a Toyota is a much more enjoyable driving experience.. Toyota lovers aren't looking for fun to drive, It's just a means of transportation.
Review is a bit biased against it, Ihave I one , its better in every way than the last one. Everything is refined and better, some a little, some a lot
I have been using 2 different CRVs since 1012. Very satisfied. Now interested phev since EVs are not making over 500km easily. They say it does but actual test still says 350+. Therefore I am interrested with crv phev . Your video is the best i have ever seen for months. Very precise and to the point. Although i have been watching many videos for months, still clarify many points in your video. Thank you very much for your time and effort.
Marek - don't stop doing what you doing, you're awesome. Secondly - from the back it looks like a mix between the Volvo's w the high taillights and the new BMW's w the angular things, no?
The last bit was spot on. We just bought a new Tesla Model Y dual motor for less than 30k Euro with incentives in Colorado. We considered other cars, but in 2024, Tesla is the value brand. 😂 I would only buy a CR-V for 10k less. We also only spend about 60 euro on electricity a month even though we drive 3000 km per month! A PHEV is the worst of both worlds and costs more too!
With this kind of milage on (I assume) the same route an EV is a great choice. PHEVs do make sense, when you're doing shorter city runs, and then take a longer road trip once in a while, and you don't want the hassle of dealing with a non-Tesla charging network.
@@timjenkins8538 Bullet proof were old gas and diesel Honda's that were made in Japan. This thing is made in China, just look at the sticker on the driver side door when you see one in person...Not even Honda is what it used to be
For me a deal-breaker is the non sufficient adjustment range of the seat and steering wheel...as a rather large driver I find not an optimale driving position...the current Skoda Kodiaq e.g. has a much wider range of adjustment... obviously the Kodiaq was designed with larger drivers in mind...not so the CRV.
@sha22276 where I live there's a single Tesla dealer/service for the entire country. When software updates fail to fix an issue, cars spend months there waiting for parts and repair.
In Ireland, where I live, there’s also only one Tesla dealer, at present. I would have expected Poland to have several. Teslas are popular here despite this but VW, Hyundai and Kia have much of the market because they all have a good dealer network.
It looks almost like my 3rd gen Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV GT from 2020. Too bad the ground clearance is 16 cm and there's no AWD. The new gen Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is just a few months away. I hope you will be able to review it. It's a 7-seater ;)
If memory serves me right, Honda Poland cut CR-V prices by 15-20 percent to move any at all. I wouldn't mind paying the full price, if the car didn't have all the problems I mentioned.
Absolutely agree. These things are so distracting, they represent more of a danger than whatever they're warning about. I have recently bought a 'modern' car and it bongs so much I have problems differentiating what particular thing it's getting its knickers in a twist about.
I have a new Ford Ranger pickup and its large screen randomly, it seemed, to switch from whatever it was set, to the Carplay screen, for only two or three seconds. Not long enough to see the message at the bottom that I had a new text. Now, after seven months use, I happened to catch the message while I was a passenger and at least I understand at last why it does it.
@@takuan650 Agreed but as long as they’re forced to by the EU, they should at least make it easy to turn it off. Like when BMW put the start/stop defeat button right next to the engine starter button, because they knew people would hate it and want to turn it off. If you’re full of customer contempt like Honda apparently is, you bury these things deep down in your stupid touchscreen even though you know everyone will need to go there every day.
I’ll stay with my bi-turbo diesel 1.6 CR-V as long as possible thank you. Superb car apart from excessive tyre noise and wipers that, in the CR-V always have a motor in the cab that screams like a tortured kitten. The current models lack a diesel, let alone a diesel hybrid and just cost too much. I’d buy a Kia or Hyundai these days rather than a Honda and judging by their dwindling sales I surmise that most people feel the same
@@MarekDrivesENG Same here. I have a B8 Passat Alltrack that gets decent fuel economy, is AWD, tows 2.2 tons and has driver aids that stay off until you switch them back on again. If it had a proper 8 speed auto instead of the useless DSG it would be the best car ever.
CR-V is an alternative for the RAV4. As far as I know, Honda is slightly slower, less economical and more expensive, but slightly roomier and more comfortable. It will get its owners. Inside the Honda portfolio, I consider HR-V being a ruined Jazz and CR-V is another step in this direction. Let's say ruined Civic. But that is general SUV problem. Kids to school? I wish to see Honda Odyssey HEV in Europe.
Caddy and Berlingo are panel vans converted to people carriers. I haven't driven the new Scenic, but something tells me it's not going to be a great minivan, like it used to be 2 generations ago (the last one was mediocre). The new Espace review is coming soon, so stay tuned. Spolier: it's not a real Espace. Sharan is no longer in production, so there are no good minivans left in Europe (except for the Touran, which is smaller).
@@MarekDrivesENG As a crossover, it would be interesting to shoot on rough roads where driving modes could be tested. A comparison can be made with vehicles that are slightly higher than the ground.
I don't want it. Nice looking but very expensive for a Honda. We don't get the PHEV here in Canada. This kind of gives that vibe, my car is like a fridge for me.
Interesting video. I like the Honda CR-V a lot. It is a good car. But the price, here in the UK, is over £54K. This is ridiculous. Rivals from Kia, Hyundai and Toyota offer better value for money. As you say, the Tesla Model Y can be purchased for less.

BRING THIS CAR TO THE UNITED STATES. COME ON HONDA FOR GODS SAKE.
When compared to the Toyota RAV4, this CRV is far behind in every aspect.
How much do I want it? LOTS!!! We only get regular hybrid here in the US but it’s still definitely on my short list despite your ambivalence 🤣
Regular hybrid is less offensive, though I'd love a normal petrol version.
I'm test driving one of these. It's a nice car, but it is 10K euros overpriced. Or 15K maybe. If you buy it you're crazy.
Here the Honda is still around 10K euro cheaper than a Tesla model Y long range.
Honda takes the absolute piss when it comes to pricing, and the CR-V e:PHEV is a prime example, priced here in the UK at £53,995.
Honda now make overpriced & the ugliest cars in the world ! They have lost the plot !
On my 2022 Prius you can turn off the speed recognition while the car is moving. 4 clicks though so still super annoying

Hyundai just announced prices for the new Santa Fe. Similarly priced to the CR-V, but much more car from Hyundai.
Sportage/Tucson, while shorter ofers the same space inside as this CRV. The new Kodiak will offer 800l in the trunk having the same length as CR-V
I was wondering what you’re on about with XC60 offering a 3.3 liter diesel but it seems you have your CXes and XC:s mixed up.
The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV is coming in a couple of months.

I've owned three Hondas, and liked them, but they've gotten too greedy. I've just switched to Hyundai. Much better value.
absolutely! Technology wise also. And the price difference is huge. Honda are insane to price it like that. Insane!!!

I would love to own this crv but it is very expensive, over 60k euro. I cant afford 2,5 years salary for a car.
CRV is a good size and well screwed together. Latest pricing is a joke though. There has to be massive discounts for this car to sell at volume.
Too bad that this suv made in Alliston ON near Toronto is not made and sold as phev here
I would buy it, but direct injection....nah
Great video. In your opinion which would be the correct price for this CRV?
