One outing in the CR-V and you'll quickly realize it's a serious performer. At 180 hp, the CR-V's engine delivers in full, responding with an impressive surge when you step on the accelerator. To keep you going on the road, there's the CR-V's 4-wheel independent suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars, and rack-and-pinion steering with variable power assist. Of course, there's RealTime⢠4WD that automatically kicks in from front-wheel drive to traction-enhancing 4-wheel drive, for those times when you want to venture off the straight and narrow.
