Honda redesigned the CR-V for the 2007 model year (which carried through the 2009 model year), adding a fairly significant new look, but keeping the four-cylinder engine and five-passenger seating. The new CR-V shaved 3 inches off its overall length than the previous 2002-06 generation. Even so, the wheelbase and interior dimensions remained virtually unchanged.

The Honda CR-V's four-cylinder engine is quite capable and confident in almost all situations. Most drivers will be satisfied with its performance, but those who regularly transport full loads may miss the occasional need for V6 power. Road noise is also a bit elevated and the ride is slightly firm, however, the CR-V compensates to a large extent with iths agile handling, precise steering and strong brakes.
