The 2013 Honda CR-V is an excellent choice for shoppers looking for a dependable compact SUV with good fuel economy, reasonable pricing, and a lot of standard equipment. Coming off a complete redesign just last year, the 2013 CR-V carries over mostly unchanged. The 5-passenger CR-V's dimensions are modest but Honda's clever packaging offers ample interior room and class-leading cargo space. The Honda CR-V is available for sale in three trim levels: LX, EX, and leather-appointed EX-L. Every model uses a fuel-efficient 185 horsepower 2.4-liter I-4 engine with a standard front-wheel drive. Honda does offer an option for four-wheel drive, making the compact crossover tackle mud and snow efficiently. The 2013 CR-V's handling is remarkably sporty but its five-speed automatic transmission is geared for efficiency.
