Written by Evelyn Alas

Honda, distributed in El Salvador through Grupo Q, once again surprises its customers with the arrival of the all-new Honda CR-V that enters the competitive SUV segment, with a new look inside and out.

This is the sixth generation of Honda's popular SUV, which has undergone a complete change as it comes loaded with important new features in terms of exterior design, interior design, technological equipment and mechanical level. With larger proportions and more space for passengers, the new modern design of the CR-V promises to offer even more of the practicality that characterizes it, showing a perfect balance between spaciousness, luxury, sophistication and safety.

"The new CR-V comes fully refreshed, both inside and out. This model is a complete change of line since 2016. Every detail in this SUV is loaded with innovation and technology, with wider spaces to offer all salvadorans a unique driving experience that combines comfort, luxury and safety, meeting all the demands of the driver and passengers", said Julio Martinez, Honda brand manager.

The CR-V has a longer wheelbase and a wider and more imposing stance, accentuated by the sporty roof line. It has new LED headlights that offer more illumination than previous CR-V models, with the convenience of automatic on/off. Vertical taillights add a modern touch with an unmistakable LED light pattern.

Available features, such as the larger luggage rack with 1,672 liters of cargo space, and in the case of the EX and EX-L versions, the power rear door with hands-free access, give it the versatility to take on all kinds of adventures, from city or countryside trips.

The interior features a minimalist design and wide sight lines. The new interior includes an expanded cargo area and the EXL version has leather-trimmed front seats and a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat. Added to this are creature comforts such as a premium Bose sound system, 9-inch touchscreen and wireless smartphone integration.

More safety

Passenger safety is very important to Honda, which is why this refreshed model includes Honda Sensing, a suite of safety and assistance features designed to make driving easier and help protect the driver and passengers. It includes collision mitigation braking system, lane mitigation system, automatic adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist system.

HONDA CR-V has a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine that develops a power of 193 hp (190 hp) and 243 Nm of maximum torque. In El Salvador is available in three versions: LX, EX and EX -L.
