Pros
The 2014 Honda CR-V is as comfortable mushing through unplowed streets as it is circling the flea market ready to haul home some vintage antiques. Excellent fuel economy, a very reasonable price, and a near flawless repair record should seal the deal.

Cons
If you need tow heavy loads or haul more than five passengers, the CR-V isn’t for you. Also, while you can get features like navigation and upgraded audio on other competitor’s mid-line trims, the CR-V only offers these features on its most expensive model, the EX-L.

Interior Comfort
We like the sophisticated overall look and feel inside the 2014 Honda CR-V, highlighted by a smartly-sculpted dash, large and bright gauges and elegant switchgear. Special attention is paid to driver comfort, with supportive front seats that flank an accommodating center console punctuated by two big cup holders. A large covered center stow bin houses USB and auxiliary inputs as well as a 12-volt power point. Although the CR-V’s overall interior dimensions are largely unchanged from the previous two generations, its cargo area now offers a bit more space than before with the rear seat up, but marginally less when it’s folded down.

Exterior Styling
While the 2014 CR-V retains roughly the same dimensions as CR-Vs of yore, it looks substantially larger. With a bold, more aerodynamic look, the CR-V appears a bit more rugged, with swept-up rear quarter windows and edgy front and rear fascia treatments. A steeply-raked windshield and slightly lower roofline effectively complement the CR-V’s high-profile grille and lamp treatments, while a large single-piece liftgate, coupled with a relatively low lift-over height, eases loading and unloading chores.

Favorite Features
INTELLIGENT MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY (I-MID)
All 2014 Honda CR-V models come with a bright 5.0-inch LCD color screen in the center of the dash that allows the driver to access and control a range of functions using buttons on the steering wheel.

EASY FOLD REAR SEATS
The backs on the 2014 Honda CR-V’s new 60/40-split rear bench seat flop forward with the pulls of levers conveniently located on either side of the cargo bay to create a near-flat load floor.

Standard Features
Honda’s CR-V LX for 2014 boasts a full range of power assists, a 160-watt AM/FM/CD audio system with USB/AUX inputs, Bluetooth HandsFree Link, Pandora Internet Radio interface, read-aloud SMS text messaging capability, air conditioning, an intelligent Multi-Information Display, multifunction steering wheel, multi-angle rearview camera, keyless entry, cruise control and a tilt/telescoping steering column. The EX adds various interior and exterior enhancements, a power moonroof, privacy glass, alloy wheels and a security system, while the EX-L gains leather upholstery, a power driver’s seat, heated front seats, automatic dual-zone climate control, XM Radio and more.

Factory Options
In keeping with its longstanding practice of offering vehicles largely in “mono-spec” trim levels, options for the 2014 Honda CR-V are extremely limited. The LX, EX and EX-L can be fitted with the new Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System, while CR-V EX-L buyers can opt to add either the Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with a 6.5-inch dash-mounted touch-screen or a DVD-based Rear Seat Entertainment system that features a single 7.0-inch hi-resolution LCD screen that flips down from the headliner. Dealer-installed options include remote start, rear parking sensors and various roof-rack attachments.

Engine & Transmission
The sole powertrain combination in all 2014 Honda CR-V models is the familiar 2.4-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine matched with the equally-familiar 5-speed automatic transmission. Rated at 185 horsepower, the CR-V has fuel economy ratings of 23/31 for front drive models and 22/30 with 4WD. To help in the mileage-maxing cause, all 2014 CR-Vs feature an energy-efficient multistage alternator and come with Honda’s Eco Assist system that includes the green “ECON” button on the dash that can modify throttle mapping as well as operation of the air conditioning and cruise control. The maximum tow rating is a mere 1,500 pounds.
