The new Honda CR-V, which will be introduced this year, wants to have a say in the competition with its updated design dynamics.
On the front of Honda, which has taken a remarkable step in the design side with the change it has made on the HR-V, we turned our eyes to the CR-V, the other bone member of the family. The countdown process for the fifth generation, which is planned to be introduced with its dynamics ready for mass production this year, gained excitement with a surprise leak. The new Honda CR-V, which we had the chance to see all the changes on the exterior design in the images served in China, seems to experience a calmer transition compared to its rivals such as Tucson and Sportage. We will have to wait a little longer for the cockpit details of the CR-V, which creates a larger SUV feel in terms of dimensions and character, along with the design details that Honda has revised with more sedate touches.

First details on the table for the fifth-generation Honda CR-V
When we look at the design details of the new CR-V, we can say that very clear changes await us at the front and rear compared to the previous generation. The combination of the lighting group designed in a slim form in the front section and the chrome panel on the grille extending into the group will be among the characteristic points of the new face. The feeling that the front hood is longer than the fourth generation, together with the larger designed grille, is dominant at this stage. The signature backlighting design of the CR-V is also preserved with minor revisions. We cannot help but say that the new design language, which covers a large part of the rear window, brings Volvo to mind. Under the hood of the fifth-generation Honda CR-V, we expect to see the brand’s latest-generation hybrid technology. In China, where the leak came from, the priority statement for the 190 PS version of the 1.5-liter engine draws attention. The hybrid version with the e:HEV badge is likely to include a 2.0-liter engine. It is among the information that a rechargeable hybrid option may be included in the product range.
