Would you believe that buying a new vehicle to drive around Sherwood Park, Beaumont, Leduc, Spruce Grove, and Fort Saskatchewan can reduce your fuel consumption and improve performance simultaneously? Well, you can if you buy the 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid. The Honda CR-V Hybrid takes the sensational foundation of the world-beating CR-V and gives you more power, better performance, and considerably improved fuel economy. All at the same time. What more could you ask from a non-luxury compact crossover SUV?
The 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid isn't one of those environmentally friendly models that employ exterior styling that shouts to the world about their enhanced green or performance credentials compared to non-hybrid models. Instead, the Honda CR-V Hybrid is a modern, stylish, and thoroughly contemporary compact crossover SUV from every angle. There are two high-spec versions of the 2025 Honda CR-V to choose from this time around. The most affordable of the pair is the EX-L Hybrid, and the range-topper is the Touring Hybrid. The specifications are very similar, so it comes down to which style you prefer.
A refined, direct-injected 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle four-cylinder gas engine forms the core of the 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid's powertrain. This delivers a combined output of 204 horsepower and 247 lb.-ft. of torque when combined with a pair of side-by-side-mounted electric motors to complete the hybrid powertrain. The 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid reaches 115 mph as its top speed. Along with the usual ECON, Normal, and Snow driving modes of non-hybrid vehicles, the CR-V Hybrid gains an extra Sport driving option. A continuously variable gearbox (CVT) sends the power to all four wheels, as both trim levels feature AWD as part of their standard specification. The AWD compact crossover SUV can get you 6.0 L/100 km in the city, 6.9 L/100 km on the highway, and 6.4 L/100 km combined. Plenty of compact and even some subcompact cars will struggle to get fuel economy that good.
Honda is known for delivering high-quality, comfortable, and spacious interiors without gimmicks, and the 2025 Honda CRV-Hybrid doesn't stray from that path. There's room for passengers to stretch out in the front and back, and plenty of room behind the rear seats for cargo or luggage. Both trim levels are high-spec models, so it makes sense to highlight the main differences. On top of the impressive EX-L specification, the Touring trim adds a 12-speaker Bose sound system, HondaLink subscription services, navigation, hands-free functionality for the standard power tailgate, a rear camera washer, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. Perforated leather upholstery, a 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment screen, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto (wired/wireless), front and rear heated seats, front and rear parking sensors, a heated steering wheel, and a one-touch power moonroof are standard with both trim levels.
What more could you ask for from a new compact SUV than superb fuel economy and no compromising performance? If fantastic quality, great value, legendary reliability, and a stellar list of standard features are on your list, then the 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid is just what you are looking for.
