2027 CR-V Model Review in Newburgh, NY

Meet the 2027 Honda CR-V in Newburgh, NY

The 2027 Honda CR-V is a two-row compact SUV that makes space for the varied demands of everyday life. With seating for five, a flexible cargo area, and a turbocharged gasoline engine, it is designed to handle the trip to work as readily as a weekend away.

For shoppers researching the 2027 Honda CR-V in Newburgh, NY, the gas-powered lineup offers three trims: LX, EX, and EX-L. Each provides a different combination of comfort and convenience features.

Interior Specs and Features: Space for People and Plans

The CR-V cabin gives both rows room to be part of the journey. Front passengers have 41.3 inches of legroom, and those in the second row have 41 inches. Behind them, the gas-powered CR-V provides 39.3 cubic feet of cargo space; folding the rear seat expands maximum capacity to 76.5 cubic feet. The standard 60/40 split-folding seatback lets you make room for a longer item while retaining part of the rear seat for a passenger.

The LX includes air conditioning with an air-filtration system and a manually height-adjustable driver's seat. The EX adds heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and a 10-way power driver's seat with two-way power lumbar support. For a more personalized cabin, the EX-L includes leather-trimmed seats, two-position driver's seat memory, and a four-way power front-passenger seat.

Active Noise Cancellation™ is standard on all three trims. The EX-L also has an acoustic laminate windshield. For child seats, lower LATCH anchors are provided at the two outboard rear positions, with tether anchors at all three second-row positions. Follow the vehicle and child-seat instructions when installing a restraint.

Exterior Design: Compact Proportions, Useful Details

The CR-V's broad stance gives its compact-SUV shape a purposeful look without leaving practicality behind. Gas models measure 184.8 inches long and 73.5 inches wide on a 106.3-inch wheelbase. Unladen ground clearance is 7.8 inches with front-wheel drive and 8.2 inches with all-wheel drive. LED headlights, daytime running lights, taillights, and privacy glass are standard across the gas lineup. The LX has 17-inch steel wheels with covers, while the EX and EX-L wear 18-inch wheels in Sparkle Silver and Shark Gray, respectively. Each gas trim includes all-season tires and a compact spare.

The EX and EX-L add heated side mirrors, a one-touch power moonroof, and Smart Entry with Walk Away Auto Lock®. The EX-L adds a power tailgate, useful when loading luggage or unloading the week's shopping. The gas-powered CR-V is offered in the following colors. Availability varies by trim, and premium colors may cost extra.

Paint color options include:

• Solar Silver Metallic
• Crystal Black Pearl
• Meteorite Gray Metallic
• Canyon River Blue Metallic, EX-L only in the gas lineup
• Platinum White Pearl, premium color
• Urban Gray Pearl, premium color
• Radiant Red Metallic, premium color

Power and Performance: Turbocharged Versatility

Every gas-powered 2027 CR-V uses a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque. Peak torque is available from 1,700 to 5,000 rpm, giving the engine a broad operating range for everyday driving. A continuously variable transmission and front-wheel drive are standard; Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System™ is available on the LX, EX, and EX-L. Normal, Econ, and Snow drive modes are standard. They let the driver choose a setting for routine travel, efficiency-focused driving, or snowy conditions. AWD and Snow mode do not replace suitable tires, careful speed selection, or attentive driving in poor weather.

When considering 2027 Honda CR-V fuel economy and performance, the choice between front-wheel drive and AWD is worth weighing against your usual routes and seasonal needs. The gas model uses regular unleaded fuel and has a 14-gallon tank. Actual fuel use varies with driving habits, maintenance, conditions, and other factors. For light towing, gas trims are rated for up to 1,500 pounds when properly equipped. Accessory towing equipment is required; confirm the vehicle's equipment and trailer limits before towing.

Key Technology Features: Connections for the Road Ahead

The CR-V keeps everyday technology accessible, whether you need a familiar map for a new route or a place to charge your phone. Display and charging options make it easier to stay connected on the road.

Five notable features include:

• 9-inch color touchscreen: Standard across the gas lineup for accessing entertainment and compatible apps
• Wireless smartphone integration: Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility connect supported phones without a cable
• Wireless charging pad: Standard equipment for a compatible device
• Digital driver information: The LX and EX have a 7-inch TFT meter; the EX-L has a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster
• USB-C connections: All three gas trims have a front smartphone/audio interface; the EX and EX-L add a front charging port and two rear charging ports

The audio system has four speakers in the LX, six in the EX, and eight in the EX-L. The EX and EX-L also include key-fob-activated remote engine start.

Safety Review: Honda Sensing® Across the Gas Lineup

Honda Sensing® is standard on every gas-powered 2027 CR-V. Its driver-assistance features can provide alerts or assistance in certain conditions, while additional systems vary by trim. Five notable features are:

• Collision Mitigation Braking System™: Helps mitigate certain frontal collisions, but cannot detect every object or prevent every crash
• Road Departure Mitigation System: Can alert the driver and assist when it detects certain unintended roadway departures
• Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow: Assists with maintaining a following interval under applicable conditions
• Lane Keeping Assist System: Provides steering assistance under appropriate operating conditions
• Blind Spot Information System: Standard on the EX and EX-L, but not the LX, to assist the driver in checking adjacent lanes

The EX and EX-L also include a Rear Cross Traffic Monitor. The EX-L adds Low Speed Braking Control and four front and four rear parking sensors. A rearview camera with dynamic guidelines, a Rear Seat Reminder, and front, knee, side, and side-curtain airbags are standard across the gas trims. These systems have limitations and do not replace the driver's responsibility to watch the road, check surroundings, and operate the vehicle safely.
