The Honda CR-V is Honda's largest SUV and its most practical family car, offered as a self-charging full hybrid or the only plug-in hybrid in the Honda range, with up to 50 miles of electric driving. If you want something smaller, compare the Honda ZR-V or the compact Honda HR-V.
Why Lease the Honda CR-V?
The Honda CR-V is a roomy, comfortable and easy going family SUV, with a quiet cabin, a big boot and a reputation for being simple to live with. It is one of the most sensible large SUVs you can lease if practicality matters more than sporty driving.
Every CR-V is electrified. The e:HEV full hybrid charges its own battery as you drive, while the e:PHEV plug-in hybrid adds the ability to cover up to 50 miles on electric power alone, which is the only plug-in option in the Honda range.
If the CR-V is bigger than you need, the Honda ZR-V is the mid-size SUV a class down, and the Honda HR-V is the compact option for town and smaller families.
Honda CR-V Engines and Running Costs
The CR-V pairs a 2.0-litre petrol engine with electric motors in both forms. The e:HEV full hybrid comes with all-wheel drive for extra grip, while the e:PHEV plug-in hybrid is front-wheel drive and carries a larger battery for its electric range.
The e:HEV never needs plugging in and works well if most of your driving is longer trips or you cannot charge at home. The e:PHEV suits drivers with a home charger and a shorter commute, as it can run those miles on electricity and switch to hybrid power for longer journeys. Both are smooth and quiet, though neither is quick, so the CR-V is better judged on comfort than pace.
Honda CR-V Trim Levels
Elegance
The full hybrid entry grade, already well equipped with Honda's SENSING 360 safety technology, a rear camera and heated front seats.
Advance
The top full hybrid grade, adding a multi-view camera, ventilated front seats and a head-up display.
Plug-in Tech grades
The e:PHEV plug-in hybrid comes as Elegance Tech or Advance Tech, adding the plug-in battery and up to 50 miles of electric range.
For most drivers the e:HEV Advance is the sweet spot, with the full kit and no need to plug in. Choose the e:PHEV in Advance Tech if you can charge at home and want to cover your daily miles on electricity, or the Elegance grade if you want the lowest monthly.
Leasing the Honda CR-V
Two choices shape your monthly cost: the initial rental, paid upfront as a number of monthly payments, and the annual mileage. A larger initial rental lowers the monthly figure, while setting a realistic mileage avoids excess charges at the end of the contract.
Be aware of a few things before you commit. The CR-V has premium list prices, so monthly costs tend to sit above mainstream family SUVs. The standard car scored four out of five stars in Euro NCAP testing unless it has the optional safety pack, the plug-in hybrid is front-wheel drive only, and performance is comfortable rather than quick.
