Honda CR-V Dealer

Crossovers are among the most popular passenger vehicles on the road today. If you drive around most towns, you see folks coming and going in these compact SUVs. One of the most popular models is the Honda CR-V. This crossover combines a sporty design that has evolved over six generations, a roomy interior with plenty of trunk space, standard safety features, and solid fuel economy. As a result, the Honda CR-V has become sought after by families, commuters, and first-time drivers. So if you are interested in getting a crossover that gives you the most, you’ll need to head over to Ralph Honda, your local Honda CR-V dealer.

Ralph Honda in Rochester, NY, has your next new, used, or Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Honda CR-V. We carry a vast inventory of Honda models, including the CR-V, so you can always find one with all the features you desire. As an authorized Honda dealership, we have the ability to source new and used Honda CR-V models across all trims, providing a selection to our customers that is truly unrivaled. This is why we are proud to serve drivers all across Upstate New York, giving them the ability to get behind the wheel of an amazing Honda CR-V.

The initials CR-V stand for “comfortable runabout vehicle,” although there are some who think it means “compact recreational vehicle.” Honda introduced the CR-V in 1997. This helped kickstart the entire compact SUV/crossover market, offering drivers a vehicle that handled like a sedan but had the roominess and ground clearance of an SUV. Honda had always had expertise in building compact, fuel-efficient engines with high output. This gave them the edge with the CR-V when competing with crossovers from other automakers. Throughout its six generations, the Honda CR-V has always delivered an exceptional performance with solid fuel economy.

The first two generations of the CR-V featured a fairly standard-looking vehicle with a very upright and boxy appearance. This all changed with the third generation of the CR-V that came out as the 2007 model. This had a more sloping and aerodynamic profile. Not only was this a sportier look, but it also had improved performance. Each successive model generation of the CR-V would become increasingly sloped, developing a look that was similar to Honda’s three-row midsize Pilot SUV. The sixth generation model, introduced for the 2023 model year, has evolved into a true crossover look, borrowing from a compact SUV and a traditional station wagon design.

The third generation also started the trend of featuring a standard I-4 gas engine on all Honda CR-V models across all trims. A turbocharger would be added for the fifth generation model, which debuted as the 2017 Honda CR-V. This boosted acceleration without negatively impacting fuel economy. The trend of a standard engine would continue until the 2020 model year when Honda added a hybrid powertrain. The Honda CR-V Hybrid allows drivers to capture solid fuel economy numbers by pairing a four-cylinder gas engine with an electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery pack. This is a true hybrid in the sense that the vehicle’s battery pack is recharged by a generator connected to the gas engine. As a result, the hybrid CR-V is the choice of many commuters looking to save gas.

One thing that has always stood out about the Honda CR-V is its roomy interior. You may think it is magic, but Honda has always provided enough space in the passenger compartment for five adults to sit comfortably, even on long drives. This is because the designers at Honda have done an exceptional job of apportioning the space between the first and second rows so every passenger gets plenty of legroom. In addition, the six generations of the CR-V have always featured a deep trunk, so you can fit a lot of belongings or luggage in the back without having to fold down the rear seats for cargo space. The Honda CR-V has always given drivers the best of both worlds, a roomy interior with plenty of trunk space and excellent performance and handling with exceptional fuel economy.

At Ralph Honda, we carry an inventory of new, used, and Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Honda CR-V models. If you buy a new CR-V, you will enjoy the ability to choose all the features, trim level, and specifications of the model you want. You can even choose your favorite color.
Honda gives you two superior warranties when you buy new. Every new Honda model comes with a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty. This covers most features and systems on your new Honda. In addition, Honda gives you a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain limited warranty. This covers your Honda CR-V’s engine and transmissions, which are often the most expensive parts to repair or replace. You also get a 5-year unlimited-miles corrosion limited warranty. This covers you against rust and other corrosive elements. The 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty includes 24-hour emergency roadside assistance. If your Honda CR-V breaks down during the warranty period, you can call to get a jump-start, get a flat tire fixed, get assistance if you are locked out, and get towed to the nearest Honda dealership for service. You are also eligible for the HondaCare repair program during this warranty period.

If you are looking to save a little money but still want some reliable warranties, then look through our HondaTrue CPO inventory. We are proud to offer CPO Honda models because of the range of benefits of this program. Any vehicle from the two most recent model years that has less than 12,000 engine miles is eligible for the Honda True Certified+ Program. This comes with a seven-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty. You also get a five-year/86,000 limited non-powertrain warranty, which covers most parts on your Honda CR-V. This comes with roadside assistance and is eligible for the HondaCare program. Finally, you get two complimentary oil changes during your first year of ownership.

If the Honda CR-V is from one of the last six model years and has less than 80,000 miles on its odometer, it is eligible for the HondaTrue Certified program. This also has a seven-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty and a four-year/48,000-mile non-powertrain limited warranty. However, if the original warranty has expired on the Honda CPO vehicle, then the non-powertrain limited warranty is for one-year/12,000 miles. This also includes 24-hour roadside assistance, two complimentary oil changes during the first year of ownership, and is eligible for HondaCare.

For Honda models that are up to ten years old, you can get the HondaTrue Used coverage. This is not a typical CPO program but rather a used vehicle coverage program for Honda models. There is no limit on the amount of mileage for Honda vehicles eligible for this program. Each HondaTrue Used model gets a 100-day/5,000-mile powertrain limited warranty and a 100-day/5,000-mile non-powertrain limited warranty. This will cover most things that may go wrong with your used Honda CR-V during this period. In addition, you receive 24-hour roadside assistance during this period, one complimentary oil change during the first year of ownership, and you can purchase the HondaCare service. In addition, each of these CPO and used Honda CR-V models gets a complimentary 90-day trial of SiriusXM if their CR-V has satellite radio as part of the infotainment system.
