Among the most popular of sport utility vehicles is the
sporty yet sophisticated 2002 Honda CR-V SUV, a clever combination
of utilitarian design, convenience, luxury, and solid performance.
With Honda's reputation for quality vehicles that enjoy
great resale value, the CR-V may just be the right vehicle
for you.
Available Models
In the hunt for a position of top dog in the
flood SUV market this year are three models - CR-V 2WD LX,
CR-V 4WD LX, and CR-V 4WD EX. Between the three of them,
a wide variety of options and features are covered, and
the 4WD models are available to meet more demanding driving
requirements.
Interior Features
All three Honda CR-V models feature reclining
front bucket seats, reclining seatbacks, manual height adjustment
on the driver's seat, power windows, power door locks, cruise
control, air conditioning with filtration system, and an
AM/FM stereo with cassette player and four speakers. The
list continues with standards like a retractable tray table,
front and rear beverage holders, removable folding picnic
table, and 60/40 split folding, sliding, and tumbling rear
seats.
Each vehicle has cargo area grocery bag hooks, cargo hook,
cargo area light, remote glass hatch release, and door packet
storage bins. The CR-V 4WD EX model upgrades the audio system
to include a CD player and six speakers.
Exterior
Features
All models are equipped with dual power outside
mirrors (color-keyed on 4WD EX), high-mounted tail lights,
green heat-rejecting glass, body side molding, an exterior
spare tire carrier with tire cover, chrome grille accent,
and full swinging tailgate with integrated glass hatch.
The CR-V 4WD EX sports rear privacy glass and a power moonroof
with tilt feature.
Performance
Under the hood of the Honda CR-V SUV is a 2.4-litre,
DOHC, i-VTEC aluminum alloy four-cylinder engine that cranks
out 160 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. The front-wheel
drive CR-V 2WD LX has four-speed manual transmission, while
the 4WD models come with standard five-speed manual transmission
(automatic optional). The four-wheel drive version is terrific
for powering through mud and snow.
Safety and Security
With a conscious eye towards safety - especially
in a vehicle that is becoming poplar with families - safety
standards on the Honda CR-V include a driver air bag, passenger
air bag, optional side impact air bags, three-point seatbelts,
head restraints, child seat tethers and anchors, and child
safety locks. The body is reinforced with side impact door
beams, and designed with crumple zones. The 4WD EX is equipped
with ABS brakes.
