Performance and Safety
The 2026 Honda CR-V delivers big performance dynamics for its small size. If you plan on tackling slippery terrain or traversing through rainy weather, you’ll like the available Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control. It monitors the road for you, activating AWD to send more power to the rear wheels when it senses a loss in traction. Don’t need AWD on? It will shut itself off to maximize fuel efficiency. It’s a terrific feature for drivers who lead a multi-faceted life, moving between paved roads and paths less traveled.
Under the hood, you can find either the responsive 1.5L turbocharged traditional gas engine powertrain or the powerful two-motor hybrid engine. Both enjoy exceptional fuel economy, so if you’re looking to save at the pump and go further without fuel stops, you can’t go wrong with either one.
However, if you’re after exceptional efficiency, you’ll find them in the hybrid model, offering 43 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway.[b] The hybrid powertrain comes with the exciting Sport mode, too. Activate it for an enhanced acceleration response and more thrilling behind-the-wheel feel.
Heading for the mountains or expecting some snow in the morning on your way to work? The CR-V’s Snow Mode is ready to tackle wintery roads. Plus, the TrailSport Hybrid trim has all-terrain tires that are truly ready for just what their name promises. The compact CR-V really is an agile and capable small SUV, ready for ordinary errands and extraordinary excursions.
Let’s get into driver-assist features, too, which most certainly affect how a driver experiences a vehicle. Thanks to the standard Honda Sensing suite, your 2026 CR-V will come loaded with standard safety perks starting with its Collision Mitigation Braking System, which can alert you of potential front-facing crashes and apply emergency braking. The Road Departure Mitigation system senses when you unintentionally veer off the road and takes over steering to put you back on the pavement.
Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow can not only maintain your set speed and following distance but can even stop when the preceding vehicle does and resume driving when it’s time to do so. The Lane Keeping Assist system will ensure you maintain your lane, while the Traffic Sign Recognition system will display posted traffic sign icons (like speed and yield signs) on your digital instrument cluster.
A Blind Spot Information System is ready to alert you to drivers in your blind zone for safer merging. A Cross Traffic Monitor will alert you to vehicles approaching your rear when you’re in reverse. Finally, the driver attention monitor checks for signs of fatigue and encourages you to take a break when appropriate.
Cargo and Comfort
Get ready to get your fill of adventure and get through your to-do list comfortably. The 2026 CR-V boasts cargo features that make it ready for the things that keep your days moving and components to increase commuter contentment. Starting at the back, there is an available hands-free power tailgate with a programmable height. When you have your key fob on you, simply kick your foot beneath the bumper, and a sensor will detect your presence, opening the trunk for you. So when your hands are too full to open the trunk manually, you’re covered.
Since you can program its height, you can make sure it doesn’t open so high that it scratches your garage roof, or so low that it’s inconvenient for tall users. If you want to extend the cargo space in your SUV, just utilize the split-folding rear seats to create a variety of extra storage compartments. It’s worth noting that the CR-V has some modest towing figures, too, so you have the option to take your towable rigs, like a jet ski or small camper, along for the ride.
Want to transform your cabin into a sightseeing area? Take advantage of the available One-Touch Power Moonroof with Tilt Feature. It offers a broader view of your surroundings and can even let in some fresh air. Road trips are always better with tasty beverages on hand, which is why the CR-V has conveniently placed front and rear cupholders. So even your rear-seat passengers have a place for their beverages.
Meanwhile, in the front, the driver enjoys an available 10-way power-adjustable seat with 2-way power lumbar support. Easily customize your seating position so that the angle and distance from the steering wheel perfectly suit your dimensions. There’s even a two-position driver’s seat memory, so the SUV can recall your preferred setting if a friend or family member changes it.
Heated front seats are also ready to keep you cozy on cold days. A multi-functional center console with an armrest and built-in storage gives you a place to discreetly store small belongings and rest your arm. The rear seat passengers also benefit from a center armrest for added comfort.
Infotainment and Connectivity
Stay in touch and on schedule with the CR-V’s impressive infotainment features. It boasts available Google Built-In, empowering you to use Google’s popular apps like Google Maps, Google Play, and Google Assistant on the go. Get up-to-date traffic updates and route suggestions from Google Maps.
Wireless smartphone compatibility allows you to sync your Apple or Android device up to the nine-inch touchscreen so you can control your apps on the big screen, making it easier to see directions and other important data. There’s also an available wireless charger, so your driver’s center can be a 100% cord-free zone if you choose.
Need to log online while you’re off the grid? The available Wi-Fi hotspot can help with that. You can stay connected in the ways that matter most to you, even if your phone has poor service. When it’s time to listen to music, educate yourself, or just entertain yourself, the available Bose Premium Sound System is ready to play your music, podcasts, and audiobooks. It has 12 speakers and a subwoofer for an exceptional listening experience. A mobile office, a mini concert, or an adventure portal—the 2026 CR-V is ready to be all these things, and more.
