2017 Honda CR-V - Parts and Accessories

The all-new high-tech 2017 Honda CR-V will be released later this year. Bernardi Parts is already adding parts and accessories to its web site in preparation for the launch for this long-awaited Honda CRV.

Despite our close ties with American Honda as an authorized OEM Honda dealer, Bernardi Parts does not learn of new model features from American Honda until they are released to the public. So, like you, we must rely on the media for insight into the design features for what is expected to be an all new fifth generation 2017 Honda CR-V. Outlined below are some of the rumors that we have encountered. Stop by again for further information!

Third Row Seating

With the availability of the new small 2016 HR-V, many publications are projecting the 2017 Honda CR-V will be longer so as to offer an optional third row seat. According to MotorAuthority.com, the new CRV will be built on a stretched version of the tenth-generation Civic which is stiffer and lighter. Autoblog.com supports this thinking by suggesting that Honda has “inserted a big, long door between the B- and C-pillars, stretching the wheelbase by…several inches”. They further suggest that the CR-V will be available in both five and seven passenger versions. But some reviewers suggest otherwise…

• ReleaseDatesNewcars.com states the 2017 Honda CR-V will have “mild exterior changes” with no mention of a seven seater.
• CarPreview.com outright contradicts the prediction by saying “ [the 2017 CR-V] will grow slightly, although not enough to accommodate a third row of seats”. Later in their review they suggest a third seat may be an option for the CR-V in other countries. IndianAutosBlog.com concurs – stating the third seat will likely be available only in countries where the Pilot is not available.

Turbocharged

Another commonly shared rumor is that the 2017 CR-V will offer an optional 174 horsepower turbo-charged 4 cylinder coupled engine with a CVT transmission. CarPreview suggests this will be an optional upgrade to the naturally aspirated engine.

Hybrid

DigitalTrends.com quotes Japanese web site Response.com which suggests the CR-V will be offered with a plugin hybrid drive-train with a gasoline motor and at least two electric motors.

LED Lights

As is the trend with many new models, CarPreview.com is predicting the 2017 CR-V will offer LED running lights on all CR-V trim levels. CarWow.com suggests the front-end of the CR-V is ‘inspired by the Honda Concept D” They also observed a more aggressive rear appearance with “angular brake lights mounted on the boot lid that extend vertically to the rear spoiler.

Honda Sensing Package

CarPreview.com expressed hope the Honda Sensing driver-assist package will be available on all trim levels.

Front/All-Wheel Drive

As is currently the case, the 2017 Honda CRV is expected to offer front-wheel drive as a standard with all-wheel drive as an optional upgrade.

Price

MotorAuthority.com suggest the entry level price for the new fift-generation CR-V will be $24,645. CarPreview.com suggests a similar starting price of $24,850 while the EX will be $27,100 and the top-line Touring will be priced at $33,300. They suggest the CRVs popular AWD option will add $1,300 to these prices.
