But first, let's decide: what does new mean? It appeared at the beginning of 2007 but with a 2.0 -liter engine. And now the same car has been brought to the Russian market, but with a 2.4 -liter engine.
Compared to the old engine, the torque of the new 2.4-liter unit increased by 28 Nm. At the same time, 80% of its maximum value is reached already at 2000 rpm. But this is a trump card on off -road! Why CR-V Asphalt? When something similar is told to me, I always remember people on cars in the Vologda region, who do not consider it shameful to follow the UAZs, and on a good day they follow the GTS.

When it already became clear that in the neat hands of Honda it would get to the right places, it was decided to disheveled the virgin lands a bit. The low center of gravity inspired. First with activated ESP. At a fairly high speed, the car walked in a circle, winding the rear axle, but clearly held the trajectory. A very correct electronic collar.
Now you can on asphalt. Having drowned the pedal in the rug, you understand that the automatic transmission loves a new engine. No dohlyak in early switching. Unscrews up to 6500 rpm. Gambling and confident. A heavy steering wheel adds sports and recalls that Honda is not Nissan.
The cost of the Honda CR-V 2.4 crossover in the Honda dealers will be 1,049,000 rubles. In the configuration Executive 5at 1 079 000 rub. Wait only for a long time, almost a year ...
