The revitalized Honda CR-V was recently unveiled at the Orange County Auto Show in California, just prior to the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show. The majority of those attending LAAS were thrilled with the direction the Japanese automaker is taking with their top selling and award winning vehicles. However, Honda is cautious when designing the figures of popular, well known, best selling rides like Honda CR-V.

The current CR-V models available at Nalley Honda Brunswick in Brunswick, Georgia come with a slew of options and features. The crossover has an distinct look that has impressed drivers for more than ten years.

The forthcoming Honda CR-V will be powered by a 2.4-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine. This CUV delivers 185 horsepower and 163 lbs-ft of torque, connected to a 5-speed automatic transmission. Fuel economy is estimated at 23 mpg city and a notable 31 mpg highway. The CR-V's EcoAssist system will assist in even better driving and higher fuel efficiency ratings. For example, the CUV actually reminds drivers how to put less pressure on the brakes with visual alerts on the dashboard.

The CR-V will start with a base LX, EX, and up to the EX-L coming in at prices ranging from $21,000-$30,000.

The Japanese automaker states their "Compact on the outside and roomy inside" CR-V will hit dealership lots by December 15th.¹
