Honda launched an updated version of CR-V. The revised SUV will be priced from £30,180 and will be unveiled in a UK showroom at the end of this year, and will undergo a series of cosmetic and technological updates. The most obvious update of the CR-V is in the cabin. Now, the decoration installed in the center console of the car, the door card and the dashboard adopts a new silver surface, and the top EX models are now equipped with a wireless smart phone charging pad.

The external revision is more subtle and can be extended to some new 18-inch alloy wheels and privacy glass for the entire series. CR-V now also wears the blue Honda badge and the company\'s latest e: HEV nameplate, which purportedly marks its "electrical certificate."

However, despite having the same logo as the latest Jazz, the updated Honda CR-V has not yet received the hatchback\'s innovative e: HEV hybrid powertrain. Like the old car, the CR-V still uses Honda\'s i-MMD system, which includes a 143-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, two electric motors and a small battery pack.

The electric motor can generate up to 315Nm of torque-and at low speeds, the CR-V can fly on electricity alone. Honda also stated that the front-wheel drive model will return 42.2mpg in the WLTP combined cycle, while the carbon dioxide emissions are 151g/km. Four-wheel drive models are less efficient, with 39.2mpg and 161g/km respectively.

Finally, Honda made several adjustments to the CR-V chassis. First, there is a new suspension system, and the company said it has improved the handling and ride comfort of the SUV. There is also a revised version of the car’s electric power steering system, which the company claims has improved the car’s low-speed handling performance.
