The Honda CR-V is one of the longest-running models in the Japanese brand’s line-up and, as you can imagine, one of its most important in terms of sales. For this reason, the brand has decided to introduce updates across the entire CR-V range, three years after the launch of the sixth generation that is now on the market.

Among these changes, one of the most important is the expansion of the PHEV plug-in hybrid version range with a new trim level, which will sit at the entry point of the range, below the Advance Tech trim that was previously the only one available. This new trim is called Elegance Tech and includes the following standard equipment:

  • 18-inch Berlina Black alloy wheels

Honda has focused on introducing updates to the CR-V depending on the powertrain and trim chosen. For conventional hybrid powertrains, or e:HEV as Honda calls it, the Elegance 4×2 and Advance 4×4 trims see changes centred on the introduction of several black elements. The front badge, antenna, grille with black-chrome bars and black paint finish, mirrors and door handles in gloss black will now be painted in this colour, along with the new 18-inch alloy wheels.

As for the Honda CR-V e:PHEV in its Advance Tech trim, it now receives a grille with a specific design, platinum-chrome bars and an exclusive black paint finish, a new 19-inch wheel design, a black front badge, and interior rear-view mirrors now painted in the same colour as the rest of the bodywork.

Speaking of colours, the range adds the new Urban Pearl Grey colour and, finally, across the entire Honda CR-V range, the driver attention monitoring camera is included, and on e:HEV versions the roof features a dark roof lining, while on e:PHEV versions it will be a light grey tone.

These updates for the Honda CR-V are already available on the Spanish market, including the new CR-V e:PHEV Elegance Tech, priced from €47,245 when financed through the brand.
