Honda CR-V

Comfort and convenience are two driving forces in the all new Honda CR-V, available at our Portland Honda dealer, Griffith Honda of Oregon.  The CR-V offers cargo capacity of 73 cubic feet of space and numerous nooks and crannies in which to stash your stuff. The interior offers plenty of room for those long road trips through the city of Dalles or the surrounding Oregon area.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options

The 2009 Honda CR-V with three trim levels: LX, EX and EX-L. The base-level LX comes with 17-inch steel wheels, full power accessories, a tilt/telescoping steering column, an overhead “conversation mirror” for backseat monitoring, a retractable front-seat center tray table and a four-speaker stereo with a CD/MP3 player and an auxiliary audio jack.

The EX comes with alloy wheels, a sunroof, tinted rear glass, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls, a removable trunk shelf and a six-speaker stereo with an in-dash six-CD changer.

The EX-L adds leather upholstery, a power driver seat, front-seat heaters, upgraded exterior trim, dual-zone automatic climate control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a front seat center console (instead of the retractable tray), satellite radio and a premium sound system with seven speakers and a subwoofer.

Powertrains and Performance

The 2009 Honda CR-V is powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that pushes 166 hp and 161 pound-feet of torque. The only optional transmission is automatic but buyers have a choice of front-wheel drive or an AWD system.

EPA fuel economy estimates are about average for a four-cylinder compact SUV at 20 mpg city/27 mpg highway and 23 mpg combined.

Safety

The Honda CR-V is equipped with antilock disc brakes, stability control, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. A back-up camera is available on EX-L models equipped with the navigation system, and Honda dealers can install parking sensors on lower trim levels.

Interior Design and Special Features

The CR-V’s interior cabin is both functional and attractive. Gauges are clear and controls are easily visible. Luggage capacity with the seatbacks up measures 35.7 cubic feet.
