What to expect from the upcoming 2025 Honda CRV? Let’s face it, the CRV has gained its own reputation in the auto world as this exclusive vehicle that has a well-balanced combo of good looks and solid performance. The exterior area is just marvelous. The inside cabin is plush and roomy. The powertrain is punchy and promising. It’s not really surprising if many have expected the newest updates for the 2025 model. The question is: Will there be any of it?
Powertrain and Performance
Powertrain has always been one of the major focus of choosing a ride, and it’s not different with 2025 Honda CRV. There are some options involving different units. The first one is the gas powered unit for those wanting to have traditional driving perks, while the hybrid type is designed for those eco-friendly enthusiasts. Keep in mind that the hybrid unit isn’t only offering better fuel economy, but it also helps with effective emission reduction.
The base model is said to come with the four cylinder turbocharged unit of 1.5 liter capacity, able to generate 190 hp and 179 Nm of torque. It will be paired with the CVT for smoother result. You want power for your daily drive? You got it! You want high efficiency and performance too? You can also get it.
For the hybrid unit, expect the inline four cylinder unit (2.0 liter capacity) being paired up with two electric motors. This arrangement is believed to boost power, which will affect fuel efficiency. It’s able to generate 204 hp and 232 Nm of torque. It comes together with ECVT, for even smoother driving arrangement.
Model and Design
Will the new 2025 model gets updates on the exterior as well as the interior? It’s hard to tell. Considering that Honda has been committed to deliver the best style and performance, it’s possible that they are preparing updates for the upcoming model. But then again, does it mean that they are going to have a redesigned work or they are going to have only minor changes?
The CRV has been known for its good looks and spacious cabin. Not to mention that it is always packed with the newest and most sophisticated technologies. The best thing to expect is that Honda will maintain it that way. It means that the new CRV will still have the good looks and spacious cabin although it’s unclear what kind of work has been involved in the making.
Price and Trim Levels
Since there is no official release from Honda, we can only predict the possible outcome. It’s highly likely that 2025 Honda CRV will still offer the six different trim levels, from the LX to the Sport Touring Hybrid as the highest. Although we are hopeful that the price will stay the same as the current tag, there is always a possibility that there would be a (slight) increase, considering the updates and all. So, the base LX is estimated to come with a tag of $31,500, followed by the EX with a tag of $34,000. Afterwards, there would be Sport Hybrid with its $35,500 tag, followed by EX-L sold at around $36,500. The next one would be the Sport-L Hybrid with a tag of $38,500 and topped off with Sport Touring Hybrid at around $41,500.
But then again, these are not the official pricing list. To be completely sure, you need to wait for the company’s official announcement.
The Release Date
Again, there hasn’t been any information about when the new CRV is going to launch. But if we want to take a look at Honda’s pattern, we can make predictions. Many auto experts and enthusiasts predict that the upcoming CRV may be available in 2024 – most likely during the spring time or even summer months. But get your horses high just yet because we still haven’t heard from the auto maker. The best move is just sit and wait until they are ready with their 2025 Honda CRV updates.
