Keeping the tradition of being practical yet forward-thinking, Honda offers environmentally conscious and financially savvy SUV shoppers the 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid. This continues the trend of Honda giving drivers from many walks of life something unique for their tastes, and in this case, if you're interested in a midsize crossover SUV that offers great fuel economy and plenty of space, the 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid is your vehicle. It competes in the five-door, two-row SUV space; however, Honda continues to set itself apart by pushing new features to the forefront of the CR-V's offerings, which helps it to maintain such a strong position in its segment.
Even though the CR-V itself has been part of Honda's line-up since 2017, it's only been since the 2020 model year that the CR-V has been available as a Hybrid. Because of this, the trim line continues to see modifications and updates regularly, and for the 2024 model year, the CR-V Hybrid has received a brand new addition to the trim-line. This includes the Sport-L, which sits between the base Sport trim and the performance-oriented Sport Touring trim. The Sport-L offers more luxury-oriented features over the base Sport, including leather seats, wireless smartphone charging, a one-touch moonroof, and a power liftgate, but isn't quite as expensive as the Sport Touring, giving you a nice mixture between feature-convenience and price.
The Honda CR-V Hybrid's trim line-up is also buffered by multiple packages that you can have equipped for the two-row crossover SUV, including two All-Season Protect Packages, a base Protection Package, a Utility Package for more rugged functionality, and an HPD Package featuring exclusive Honda Performance Development emblems and decals, as well as specialized fender flares and a tailgate spoiler. You can get the 2024 CR-V Hybrid in eight different colors, including Lunar Silver Metallic, Canyon River Blue Metallic, Crystal Black Pearl, Meteorite Gray Metallic, Platinum White Pearl, Radiant Red Metallic, Still Night Pearl, and Urban Gray Pearl.

Performance
The 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid is powered by a single powertrain, a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder hybrid electric motor setup. This consists of a traditional internal combustion engine paired with two additional electric motors that Honda refers to as an e-HEV configuration. This is because the engine and one of the main motors work as a propulsion mechanism for the CR-V, while the other electric motor works as a generator, feeding power to the battery pack and other instruments that rely on the vehicle's electrical power. In total, this hybrid setup produces up to 204 hp at 247 lb-ft of torque. You can also manage to tow up to 1,000 lbs with the CR-V Hybrid, making it quite versatile in its utilitarian performance.
Fuel Economy
The powertrain can also be configured in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive. The Sport and Sport-L can be configured in either drivetrain configuration, but the Sport Touring is only available in all-wheel drive. Don't worry, though, if you still want the sports-performance and luxury features of the Sport Touring, you can still achieve that and have impressive range thanks to the fuel economy that the CR-V Hybrid boasts. In front-wheel drive, you can expect to achieve an EPA-estimated 43 MPG in the city and up to 36 MPG on the highway, for a combined average fuel economy of 40 MPG.[b] In all-wheel drive, you have up to an EPA-estimated 40 MPG in the city and up to 34 MPG on the highway for a total combined estimated fuel economy of 37 miles to the gallon.[b]
Transmission and Drive Modes
The CR-V Hybrid is capable of achieving these impressive figures thanks to the hybrid technologies and efficient engineering produced by Honda. This includes utilizing their Eco Assist system, so you can get the best range possible thanks to regenerative braking, hill start assistance, and an electronically continuously variable transmission known as an eCVT. The eCVT enables different drive modes, including Snow, Sport, and ECON modes, for lots of fuel-saving travel opportunities. Plus, even with all of the tech to help with the gas mileage, the CR-V still retains a lot of sports styling at its core, including dual chrome exhaust tips, 18-inch or 19-inch glossy aluminum alloy wheels, and roof rails for those who want to customize or utilize the CR-V Hybrid with various roof accessories.
Comfort/Convenience
Long drives can be difficult if you're in a vehicle that doesn't respect your comfort levels, but the 2024 CR-V is all about respecting the driver and passengers to ensure that everyone feels comfortable across both rows. This includes available leather-trimmed upholstery throughout the interior cabin, while the Sport trim includes orange contrast stitching for the seats, steering wheel and shift knob. This gives the CR-V a sense of sporty appeal for those who want an interior that embodies the kind of performance themes present with the powertrain and exterior design.
Seating
Additionally, you have heated front seats with body-contouring designs to give you a relaxing fit, especially for long drives. There is an available 10-way power front driver seat with two-way lumbar support, along with a power-adjustable front passenger seat. With driver memory support, you can also adjust the seat to your liking and have the vehicle remember your settings the next time you drive. To top it all off, there is a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel for added luxury appeal.
Interior Enhancements
There is a center console with storage featuring inner and outer trays, storage on the side doors, and a cargo area in the rear. With the One-Touch Power Moonroof, you can also invite the outdoors into the cabin, while the all-season floor mats can keep the carpeted floors from becoming stained. Plus, there is an illuminated door that still gives you an extra bit of style and protection from leaks in equal measure.
Cargo Volume
Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control and reclining split-bench second-row seats add to the CR-V Hybrid's convenience, especially for getting into and out of the vehicle, as well as being able to access the storage areas of the vehicle. Regarding storage, you have up to 39.3 cu.ft. of cargo volume behind the second row, and if you opt to fold down the second row of seats, you can extend the cargo volume by up to 76.5 cu-ft of space. This gives you more room to store everything from additional luggage and groceries, to camping gear or fishing equipment.
Hands-Free Power Liftgate
With the availability of the power hands-free liftgate, you can also easily reach the cargo area without any issues, including making use of a programmable height feature so no matter what your size is, you can access the rear via the liftgate quickly and easily. This gives you a very diverse selection of uses for the CR-V Hybrid as far as utility and functionality is concerned.
Technology
The tech suite for the 2024 CR-V Hybrid is robust and varied, featuring an LED light array on the exterior, and intuitive safety and digital controls available to the driver on the interior. There is a completely digital instrument cluster featuring easy access to telemetry, vehicle health, and hybrid power meters for the three CR-V Hybrid trims. Additionally, you can access active and customizable safety features, such as low-speed follow, or adaptive cruise control.
Safety and Driver Assistance Features
The Adaptive Cruise Control is also tied to other safety features, such as the Lane Keeping Assist System and Lane Departure Warning as part of the Road Departure Mitigation System, which provides electronic steering assistance in case of emergencies. This is all powered by the Honda Sensing suite of safety technologies that actively help mitigate or prevent collisions, such as driver alerts, a Collision Mitigation Braking System, and even a traffic Sign Recognition System. No matter where your travels take you, the CR-V Hybrid will have an extra set of eyes on you with these intuitive features.
Connectivity
Plus, with the available navigation tools you can always rely on the infotainment suite to help get you to and from your intended location with ease. This is powered by a standard 7-inch touchscreen, but there is an available 9-inch HD touchscreen for the higher-end trims, giving you access to more screen real estate and better visibility for accessing apps, media, navigation tools, vehicle health, news, messages, and phone projection. In fact, all CR-V Hybrid trims come standard with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, along with Bluetooth streaming capabilities. You even have voice-activated system commands for hands-free voice calls and text messaging, along with Wi-Fi hotspot support, so you can stay connected on the go.
Even better yet, you can enjoy your favorite music thanks to the available Bose premium surround sound system, or you can keep your devices charged using front or rear USB ports. If you're beyond using cords to keep your devices powered, you can take advantage of the Qi wireless smartphone charger and bypass plugging in your devices altogether. With other tech conveniences such as power windows and locks, as well as push button start, you have everything you need to enjoy a tech-enriched experience while either commuting or joy-riding in a 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid.
