This generation of the soft-roader will come with 'Made in India' tag unlike its predecessor which were imported into the the country from Japan as a Complete Built Unit. With this refreshment to the vehicle, company expects some boost in the sales figures as they currently sells only 40-50 units a month of it.

Talking about the engine specifications, Honda India is still not offering any Diesel engine option to the CR-V & it only comes with two petrol mill offerings i.e 2.0 ltrs. & 2.4 ltrs. Both the engines will be available with Manual as well as Automatic Transmission.

# 2.0 Ltr. FWD engine which produces 156 ps @ 6500 rpm of max. power & 190 nm @ 4300 rpm of max. torque ; ARAI tested efficiency - 13.7 kmpl.

The new CR-V features ECON mode, it is an intellegent system which automatically tunes the engine, transmission & air-condition in such a way that SUV delivers optimum fuel efficiency.
Inside it sports a six speakers 6.1 inch touch screen infotainment system with connectivity of USB-iPod.

The Elegance Style package will come a Tweaked Front Grill & chrome treated fog lamps & side steps.

Although this car will be assembled in the Noida plant of HCIL but we realy do not expect the price to be significantly lower than the on-going model as the new CR-V has so much to offer.
