The CR-V is the dependable crossover that won’t set your heart racing but will keep you comfortable and safe.

Competent handling · Spacious interior
Uninspiring acceleration · Bland interior styling

The 2026 Honda CR-V is all about delivering a solid and comfortable ride without the frills. Its core strengths lie in its competent handling and excellent build quality, making it a reliable choice in the crowded crossover segment. What surprised us most is the CR-V's spacious and thoughtfully designed interior, which is perfect for families or anyone needing a bit more room. However, the lack of pizzazz in its design and the uninspiring acceleration might leave thrill-seekers looking elsewhere. If you prioritize safety, space, and reliability over flashy tech or aggressive styling, the CR-V should be at the top of your list.

Our pick: EX ($34,545)
vs. 2026 Toyota RAV4: The RAV4 offers more engaging driving dynamics, but the CR-V wins on interior space and ride comfort.
