Overview
The Honda CR-V is a suv known for this above all: america's family default; hybrid sport touring is the sweet spot. It cross-shops against the Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5, Ford Escape, and like every vehicle it has a personality — strengths worth paying for and quirks worth checking before you sign anything.
