Honda CR-V MPG
At Norm Reeves Honda Superstore Irvine, we’re here to help drivers get a better sense of the Miles Per Gallon of the CR-V. We’ll explore the performance, the efficiency, and even the factors that can affect your vehicle’s fuel economy! Contact us today for more information.
Engine Specs & Options
The Honda CR-V offers a versatile performance with its varying engine options. It comes standard with a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that can boast 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque.
Of course, drivers looking to take their compact SUV performance into a greener direction can opt for the 2.0L Hybrid engine. This engine can produce 143 horsepower and 129 lb-ft of torque. However, this engine works in tandem with the AC Synchronous Permanent-Magnet Electric Motor, which produces 181 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque, which results in 212 total system horsepower.
Miles Per Gallon
Both engine options come mated to the Continuously Variable Transmission. This particular transmission is known to boast optimal efficiency through direct gear transitions and smoother acceleration. When equipped with the standard gas engine and 2WD, the CR-V gets an EPA-estimated 28 city/34 highway/30 combined MPG.* When it features AWD, it gets an EPA-estimated 27 city/32 highway/29 combined MPG.*
When the Honda CR-V is outfitted with its hybrid engine, it brings the fuel efficiency up to an EPA-estimated 40 city/35 highway/38 combined MPG.*
Factors that Affect Your Fuel Efficiency
To get the most out of your vehicle and its MPG, you’ll want to keep up with service—particularly, the oil change. When you have fresh oil, it’ll ensure that your vehicle performs at maximum efficiency. However, if you’re running on old oil, it’ll cause the engine to work harder and use up more fuel to perform as expected.
Another factor that affects your CR-V MPG is weight. If you’ve got all the seats filled, or some heavy cargo in back, this can put pressure on the vehicle and engine. Much like with older oil, it’ll cause the engine to work harder and use up more fuel than usual.
