The New Honda CR-V Is the Embodiment of an Economical and Reliable Crossover

The Russian car market has long been accustomed to the Chinese auto industry. Therefore, the appearance of new models from leading global manufacturers is always an event. Not on a global scale, of course, but still. Cars are imported under the parallel import program. Most often from the same China, but branded ones. And so on the channel "Clubny Servis" such a miracle appeared - Honda CR-V. This is a new car, assembled in China, brought to us and offered for "some" 5 million rubles. Of course, it's very expensive. For this money, you can get the same Chinese crossover of a completely different level - full-size and with a capacity of almost 500 hp.

But let's make allowance for the fact that this is a Honda, albeit a Chinese "bottling", and with features inherent only to this market. It's worth starting with the fact that the car looks impressive, but somehow faceless. You can confuse it with Mazda if you don't pay attention to the nameplates. The second nuance is that this is a hybrid car. Not parallel, like many Chinese models, but sequential. This means that it works in tandem with a gasoline engine, helps it turn the wheels and save fuel. The total power as a result is 241 hp. Not 500 "horses", of course, but these are "purebred Japanese racehorses", albeit raised in Chinese stables. And you will find out the rest of the nuances of the Honda CR-V yourself by watching the video to the end.
