2024 Honda CR-V EX-L: Don't Want A Hybrid? Buy THIS! 

Just got my new 2024 CR-V EXL yesterday! (Platinum White) It shimmers like a Diamond!!! It is amazing and beautiful!!! 🚗🚗🚗🚗😎

I tested CRV , RAV4 and CX5. Did not like the seats in CX5, uncomfortable and also the trunk is very small. The RAV4 was very loud at high speeds and did not like the hard suspension. Found CRV the best, quiet. Great seats and very nice suspension and a large trunk. Bought the new CRV. A new RAV4 is just as expensive as Honda in Germany.

I've had my 2022 CRV is still Amazing. I have 0 complaints. It's a Honda. I will be updating to a newer CRV just because I love them so much.

That’s an access panel on the interior side of the gas exterior door. The loop cable there is an emergency release for the exterior door for whatever reason it doesn’t unlock. There’s also a funnel included to fill the tank in case you run out and that funnel can be found in the spare tire well. Great video! Keep it up!

Great video! Very well done. Speaking speaking very clearly helps.

Just bought one 800 miles ago and we love it got the platinum white my wife loves the sparkles and smooth quiet ride had a 2009 exl and it was awesome also. Honda has got my vote. Couldn’t be happier thanks for the great review!!❤

26.3K subscribers! You did this singlehandedly, Kenny! Good for you! That CR-V is a FINE vehicle. Attractive, and well executed. I can see why it's such a popular seller for sure!

Thanks for the review! 😉👍

Very thorough review, 😊you were right on!

Great review. Thank you. 👍🏽👍🏽

Great review!

Nice review video Kenny. My first of yours. I was convinced on buying the Sport hybrid, but now considering gas only. At 6:30 I believe the yellow loop is for manually opening the gas filler door. 🙂👍🍀

Awesome video.

Nice vehicle. Beautiful presentation. Peace bro.

Very helpful.

can't select turn lights Off always, it's spring loaded & won't let you keep it set to Off, you can do this on many other vehicles

Another well done review. Congrats on hitting 26k subscribers! It amazes me that Honda does not option in a heated steering wheel in this trim level. You can get one in a lower trim Forester. For most features I think the Hyundai Tucson is probably is the best for the price. Granted Honda has the better reputation for reliability. Hopefully all the problems with the 1.5L have been resolved. CRV is nice but I would rather get a Passport with the V6 if I bought a Honda. Pilot if I needed a third row.

That is exactly what I'm getting in silver also of course again they have every color but silver at our car lot 😂 story of my life! So it's a waiting game for the color I want to come in.

Good review buddy. New subscriber here.

Every single Honda got the same front end. Interior is pretty good. Greetings

Wow! I been looking at the top model of this car. I just don't think the higher trims are worth it. But this is!

I like the CRV, but in Canada, the only interior color we can get is black. The Rav4 has more choice for colors. My advice, try out both, I dont think there is a bad choice here. Im hearing hints that next year the turbo is only on base models, hybrids on all the others.

This is a very nice & thorough review. I've subscribed. Thank you!

Another great review and video Kenny! Congrats on 26k! I like this suv a lot but I agree with you that Honda should include the ventilated seats, heated wheel and the camera. No ventilated seats is a hard no way for me. Hoping that you are doing so well!

A heated steering wheel would be nice on the EXLs and a universal Garage door for the price.

Nice color 🎨

Amazing review bro.

I thought it was a good video but I think you could have talked about the driving modes like the econ mode as opposed to the normal mode

Just bought one 2 days ago. I had purchased a GMC Terrain on April 27th, only drove it 185 miles and the 9 speed transmission went out. Dealer fid try to get me in another one but i just got a refund and went straight to Honda. Got a much nicer vehicle in almost the same price

Great 👍 suv just bought one.

Why is everything not LED in these? When I drove one, I really liked the ride, I just wish they would've went full LED. Do they have a phone app like most car companies now for remote starting door locking etc?

At 24:07, you didn't mention the classic Honda CR-V on the left as a tribute.

You had me thinking of buying one until you mentioned the stop start system which is a no go for me just seems to be annoying to have 😢

Last year I signed a deal for 2023 honda crv hybrid sport touring because it looks amazing and it is very comfortable but I cancelled the deal because the top model doesn't have a spare tire and fog lights . I am Very disappointed. I live in a rural area without street lights. These features are lifesavers for me so I bought the toyota rav4 hybrid instead.

I have a question, hoping you can answer because my car dealer sure doesn't know. I recently purchased a 2024 Honda CRV Sport Touring Hybrid. When I test drove it the side mirrors tilted on reverse. Before purchase I changed my mind on the color and now these mirrors don't tilt. And the dealership is acting like they don't why. Did they happen to give me thevwrong car or is there something missing???

Great review. I'm not sure why tf Honda put all the goodies into the hybrid. I just got the exl and its plenty fine exept for the power which is routed through a cvt transmission which just feels like a very long first gear, low power output plus a cvt u cant help but get smooth shifts. For the price Honda is asking they definitely couldve modified their 2.4 that they have from previous models or just just make the 2.0 turbo charged. Coming from Jeep im used to a bit more pick up when you press on the gas but you cant beat the ergonomics The crv just feels ridiculously spacious, doors open at 90 degrees, also the Honda peace of mind (that the thing will never leave you stranded like my wifes jeep did...twice). I guess the trade off for that engine is great gas mileage. I think Honda thought no one will be peeling out in a crv so they fore-went a larger engine but there are moments when you feel for a spirited drive and its a slight let down. For that you def would be better served putting it in sport. How the transmission holds up over time esp with the turbo, only time will tell. When you think close to $40k, and all youre getting is a 2 liter....Honda is definitely knows they could get away with murder so they did.

Great video Kenny. OK.. You just recently reviewed this Honda CR-V EX-L, the Mazda CX-5 Turbo Premium and the Subaru Forester Touring. Which did you like best and why and which would you buy with your own money? They are all about the same price give or take a $1000. I'm in the market for one of these 3 exact vehicles and trims. Just my wife and I. No kids.🎉

I have the ALL WHEEL drive and get 33 to 35 MPG

people said this is a lil noisy in the cabin is this true?

Honda usually makes a good vehicle. I like the standard wheels. This would be a good little economy daily for someone. Being a reliable honda for a decent price(considering the outrageous car market thanks to global leadership and price gouging global corporations.) I really like this. Also for an SUV it looks decent.

Disagree with your assessment of the hybrid about the refinement of the ICE coming on and shutting off. I’ve had the Sport Touring Hybird for a month now and that’s one of the reasons I chose the Honda vs the RAV4 hybrid! The hybrid is more powerful vs the non-hybrid CRV and gets better fuel economy yet is very refined and the E-CVT doesn’t drone vs other CVTs in the market!

As I compare the features of the EX-L versus the Sport-L Hybrid, I'm feeling that the hybrid is not competitive in terms of price and value for the money. The Sport -L is about $2500 more for AWD than EX-L AWD. The hybrid only gets about 6-10 more MPG than the gas EX-L, but lease prices are about $46 less per month for the EX-L. I'm a strong hybrid advocate, but drilling down to the math on costs versus savings gives the advantage to the EX-L.

WTF is with tiny turbo engines? They literally get the same gas mileage as a bigger NA engine, but are more prone to problems so don’t last as long, aka actually worse for the environment overall.

I think Honda has some weird omissions lately. For instance, I have a 2023 Accord Hybrid Touring (top of the line) and there is no SiriusXM built in. Also that car doesn’t have the HomeLink garage door opener system. My 2018 Accord 1.5 Touring did. Apparently that can be purchased as an accessory but why isn’t it included?

good solid vehicle... really like mine!

What u think have more room n cargo space? Forester, crv or Tucson

Where do I put my vent fragrance clips? 😂

One day, I buy new 2024 Honda CR-V EX-L.

why don't they let you turn Off the idle auto engine shutoff, you have to select it manual each time you start the car, otherwise the engine keeps turning off at red lights & even stopping to back into a parking space; very annoying you can't keep it off, I would image it will wear out the starter much quicker not to mention the battery too

Why is it with Honda 9 out of 10 interiors are just dark, gloomy black? I think it's one of the reasons they can't move them off the lot.

Tell the leaves to grow back. Enjoy your positive energy. Maybe a few more specs would’ve been appreciated. Too much nagging about subscribers, though.

I don't like the gas cap being accessible like that. It should be locked as standard.

Hybrid is the way to go these have regular cvt and a turbo

COol video.

Hi

NO NAV

Stick to Toyota if you don't want issues in year 1

The Toyota RAV4 crushes the CRV. The CRV has a 1.5 L small engine with a turbo charger. The RAV4 has a 2.5 L without the need for a turbo charger. CASE closed.

Cant believe it only comes with 1.5t, trash! This suv was strictly made for young women

Spend a little less time talking while driving. Would like to hear the interior noise level, not a soliloquy on your subscriber level. Just sayin’. Word of advice. When the school zone signs are flashing, try to keep it to at least under 30😉.

26.4K congrats man! Another great review by the way look forward to them. Have a great 2024 !!!

Overpriced and underpowered.

Paid review

Not the 1.5T engine!!!
