2022 Honda CR-V Hybrid

For 2022, Honda offers all-wheel drive as standard equipment on the CR-V Touring trim; there are no further changes, and the CR-V carries over from last year, following its major boost of freshened styling, new features and upgraded powertrains -- including a the CR-V Hybrid in 2020.

Honda's CR-V Hybrid's first electrified SUV from the automaker, joined the Accord Hybrid and Insight as the third electrified Honda manufactured in the U.S. as the company continues to apply its advanced two-motor hybrid-electric system to all of its core U.S. models in the years ahead.

In addition to the hybrid-electric variant, major upgrades to the CR-V included bolder front and rear styling, re-designed wheels and standard Honda Sensing safety and driver-assistive technology (previously available only on EX and above trims).

All non-hybrid CR-V models are powered by the 1.5-liter VTEC Turbo engine. The powerplant is rated at 190 horsepower, with responsive and refined performance across the engine's full operating range. Available in front- or all-wheel drive configurations, power is transmitted through a smooth yet sporty continuously variable transmission with Honda G-Shift control logic.

Exterior styling to the Honda CR-V is more upscale and rugged in appearance. Broad openings for the fog lights are fully integrated into the bumper, giving the CR-V a more aggressive look, while the chrome grille is more pronounced. CR-V EX, EX-L and Touring trims get round LED fog lights, while CR-V Hybrid models in the same trims feature distinctive bar-type fog lights with five LEDs.

The 2022 CR-V maintains the same agile and confident handling. Its front MacPherson strut and rear multi-link suspension use specially tuned low-friction dampers, with both FWD and AWD models including tubular front and solid rear stabilizer bars that promote responsive turn-in and flatter cornering.
