Honda is set to reveal the European production version of the all-new CR-V at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show. The new generation of the world's best-selling SUV* raises the bar in terms of interior quality, refinement and spaciousness - including, for the first time, the option of seven seats on petrol models.
The chassis is also the most sophisticated ever created for a CR-V, and ensures the car delivers an engaging driving experience with exemplary ride comfort, as well as genuine off-road capability.
Please continue reading below:
The 2024 Honda CR-V has been designed with a bolder, more confident appearance and exceptional levels of practicality, safety, connectivity, and comfort.
Now with a longer wheelbase and wider stance, the CR-V offers spaciousness comparable to that of a larger SUV. Not only providing rear seat passengers with best-in-class leg room, but also creating more boot space and increasing stability at higher speeds.
Offered as either full hybrid (e:HEV) or plug-in hybrid (e:PHEV), the sixth generation CR-V delivers dynamic performance and efficiency across the range.
Earlier this year, Honda took three of the top awards in this year's Honest John Awards, with the Jazz, Civic and HR-V winning the gongs for small hatchback, small family car and small crossover of the year respectively.

The Honda Jazz is a smash hit with the readers of HonestJohn.co.uk and a worthy winner of the Small Hatchback of the Year award. Easy to drive, comfortable and practical, the Jazz is everything a small car should be, and our readers agree when we say it's simply one of the best small hatchbacks you can buy.

If you don't want to change your current car, there are still ways you can drive greener:
Lose Some Weight
Don't drive around with unnecessary weight in your car - the engine will have to work harder and use more fuel. Empty your car of anything that you don't need to carry around all the time. Remove roof boxes and roof racks when you're not using them - they cause extra aerodynamic drag, which will raise your fuel consumption. Open windows and sunroofs do the same; and for the same reason, get any loose items of external trim fixed.
