It’s time for another Showroom and Tell, so gather ‘round as we head over to Leith Honda of Raleigh to look at the 2014 Honda CR-V.
The CR-V thrives in almost any situation. Heading to the mountains? Honda’s Real Time All-Wheel Drive with Intelligent Control System will get you there safely, and the CR-V’s 185-hp 2.4-liter, dual overhead camshaft i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine can conquer any incline. Going camping in the woods? The CR-V’s 60/40 rear seats fold down with just the pull of a lever, easily accessible from the trunk, and if you really need more space, strap your gear on top with the versatile utility rack. Do you just need a weekend at the beach? The CR-V is rated for 23 miles-per-gallon in the city and 31 miles-per-gallon on the highway, and the available power sunroof will let you get your shine on.
The 2014 CR-V is not only adaptable, but safe, too. There’s a reason it earned a top-score of Five Stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, as well as earning recognition as a Top Safety Pick in 2013 from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Actually there are several reasons, such as the Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure designed to protect passengers in the event of a collision, and the Side Curtain Airbags with Rollover Sensor that reduce the possibility of head and neck injuries. The CR-V also features Anti-Lock Braking, and Honda’s LATCH, or Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children, system that provides more support for child seats. This SUV is perfect for family road trips and making sure everyone makes it back in one piece.
From the driver’s seat, you’ll have everything you need at your fingertips. The CR-V has power side mirrors, and an Expanded View Driver’s Mirror to give you better visibility. An LCD screen in the instrument cluster gives you important real-time information about the vehicle, with steering-wheel mounted buttons to select the information you need, and the entertainment system offers available Bluetooth HandsFreeLink, Pandora compatibility, Bluetooth streaming audio, SMS text message function, and USB or auxiliary input.
No matter what you crave, the 2014 Honda CR-V will more than satisfy you. Watch the exclusive Leith Honda walkaround video below for an up close look at the 2014 CR-V.
