| Road Test |
The Honda CR-V is a compact crossover utility vehicle that fits into Honda’s lineup below the mid-size Pilot; unlike the Pilot, the smaller CR-V has only two rows of seating. Completely redesigned for 2007, the new generation features lower (by 1.3 inches) step-in height and is actually shorter overall than the ’06 model it replaces, but has a roomier interior.
