| A new aggressive and bold appearance with unique Honda style portends the significant enhancements made to the 2015 CR-V. Going on sale October 1, complete information on the newest version of the best-selling SUV in America will be available September 30. |
Honda has taken the wraps off its freshly facelifted 2015 CR-V.
Although the automaker has remained very
tight-lipped as to what additional changes we can expect, the CR-V
appears to receive a handful of “aggressive and bold” cosmetic tweaks
for 2015.
The front end has been restyled with a
fascia similar to the 2015 Fit hatchback and 2014 Civic, complete with a
new grille and chrome trim styled to connect both headlights, at least
visually. In addition, Honda has reworked the CR-V’s lower bumper and
fog lights. Down the side, the CR-V appears largely similar to the
outgoing, pre-refresh model, with the exception of new mirrors and
five-spoke alloy wheels.
It’s also unclear if we can expect any
mechanical changes, but Honda’s trend toward the Accord, Civic and Fit
ditching their conventional automatic transmissions in favour of a CVT
suggests we’ll see the same for the CR-V. Currently, the CR-V is powered
by a 2.4-litre inline-four engine, rated at 185 horsepower and 163
lb.-ft. of torque, paired to a five-speed automatic.
Honda will fully reveal the 2015 CR-V on Sept. 30 before it goes on sale on Oct. 1.
