2025 Honda CR-V

For the Westlake driver who values reliability above most or all else when searching for a new vehicle, it’s difficult to beat the Honda CR-V. So with the latest 2025 Honda CR-V models hitting our lot in North Olmsted, we at Ken Ganley Honda wanted to showcase some of the 2025 Honda CR-V specs and capabilities that make it such an excellent choice for someone who needs a reliable, yet flexible vehicle that can handle most of what life can throw at it. Let’s get started!

 


2025 Honda CR-V Engine Specs

First up in our exploration of specs is the Honda CR-V engine. Based on which 2025 Honda CR-V trim you opt for, your 2025 CR-V will run on either a gas-powered 1.5L DI VTEC turbo 4-cylinder engine or a hybrid 2.0L DI Atkinson 4-cylinder engine. Check out their respective specs and capabilities below, and contact us if you have questions afterward:

2025 Honda CR-V Towing Capacity

While it certainly won’t beat a purpose-built truck in this regard, the two Honda CR-V engine varieties mentioned above enable the 2025 Honda CR-V to tow enough weight around Olmsted Falls to simplify transporting items too large to fit in your trunk, like furniture or large amounts of gardening supplies for those green-thumbed individuals! Check out the 2025 Honda CR-V towing capacity figures below:

2.0L DI Atkinson 4-cylinder engine

2025 Honda CR-V MPG Rating

Finally, let’s take a look at the 2025 Honda CR-V mpg rating. According to the EPA, the latest CR-V has a 14-gallon fuel tank capacity and will perform best on Bay Village roads when fueled with unleaded, 91-octane gasoline. And while the upper-level hybrid trims have much better fuel efficiency than the purely gas-powered trims, you can still expect up to a combined 30 mpg for the latter: 

1.5L DI VTEC Turbo 4-cylinder engine

  • 2WD: 28 city / 34 highway / 30 combined mpg*
  • AWD: 26 city / 31 highway / 28 combined mpg*

2.0L DI Atkinson 4-cylinder engine

  • 2WD: 43 city / 36 highway / 40 combined mpg*
  • AWD: 40 city / 34 highway / 37 combined mpg*
