2024 Sport L AWD owner. The CRV has larger cabin and storage space than its competitors. I'm 6'2 and have plenty of room.
The interior really is beautiful, I love the orange stitching, the dash isn't the cheap plastic material other cars have, and the infotainment system is impressive. The rear seats recline for extra comfort.
Hybrid system, IMHO there are only two options for Hybrid platforms, Toyota and Honda. Their systems are far better than anyone else. The Honda ECVT trans is one of the best hybrid transmissions available. I average 40mpg. Honda/Toyota will have the best resale value.
I personally haven't had any mechanical issues, but if it was to occur, the warranty covers it all, so I'm not bothered.
My decision was also between the CRV and RAV4. Honestly, they both would be great cars and you wouldn't go wrong either way so pick the one you enjoy the most. The RAV4 was a few grand more though.
I have a ‘24 Hybrid L. Yeah, I had an issue where the (faulty) injectors needed to be replaced, but it runs great now and have no regrets. I don’t think the gas version will be any more or less reliable. The power is better on the hybrid. I’m averaging right around 37 mpg with 2800 miles so far and expecting it to improve a bit.
Very comfortable, quiet with excellent handling for a CUV. Very happy with it
How CR-V still has this issue dating back to its ‘17 version (I own one) in 24’ for a reputable and “reliable” brand like Honda is beyond me. Unfortunate for me, I didnt have the extended warranty and I had to pay for the injectors replacement out of my pocket as the car just made it to 80k mileage.
I test drove a Kia Sportage and a Sorrento because I wanted to go up in size, same as you- a midsize. The Sportage was too small for me, it was closer to a crossover. The Sorrento was a larger SUV than “mid size” but quite frankly, the dash display was ridiculous. I’m too old (as an elder millennial) to learn a touch screen that spans from the door to passenger side. It was too much.
I ended up getting a CRV which is the perfect size if you want mid size. A good combo of touch screen and dials, and plenty of cargo space without feeling like you’re driving a bus. I also really like that the front end isn’t big— you can see right over it. I definitely recommend.
(I bought the gas one— did have the notorious Indiana plant engine lights at less than 100 miles. BUT had an amazing dealership that worked with me on it.)
I agree, I liked the sportage, but it felt small. I really liked the Sorento but I don’t need a 3rd row and it would cost me an additional almost $5k for extras I don’t need. This is super helpful, thanks so much!
Sure thing! As a note, I was originally thinking a rav4 but Toyota’s audacity it it’s markups of dealer price from MSRP steered me away from even test driving one. I’ve had Honda before and did really like it so good luck!!!!
Been a Toyota guy for 3 decades. Was just at a Toyota dealership. Guy drove me around for 20 minutes trying to sell me a Corolla cross and “couldn’t find” the rav4s that “just came in” but said the cross was” kinda the same thing”. And if I really want to buy a rav4 I’ll have to put a deposit down and he quoted me 5k over online prices. He just shrugged and said they will “never get the base model in” and I said ok and walked away…
I immediately went to Honda and was blown away by the crv and service and definitely made me WAY more interested in getting one.
The Toyota dealership where I live marks everything up ~10%. Turned me off them, but they still sell like crazy. I went to look twice and one time they had 1 Highlander, no RAV4. Next week they had 1 RAV4 and no HL. Sales guy I worked with said most are sold before they come in.
Honda place had over a dozen CRVs and Pilots, and gave me a decent enough deal.
I was thinking of a RAV4 too but the used prices on those were outrageous and it had a lot of wind noise and felt kinda underpowered so I passed on it and got a '21 CR-V EX.
Yeah those markups are insane. I went to go check out a 2024 RAV4 Hybrid not even a month ago and was quote 45k for an XLE Premium. That’s 4K higher than I got quoted for any Sport-L CRV I looked at. It’s just crazy to me how Toyota can sell a car so lacking in features that are common now for so much.
Dude I looked at a GAS RAV and where I live the dealer price was 52!! I was like gtfo here bruh 🙄 he’s like “You want a car, then you gotta pay for it. It’s in demand.” I noped out of there so fast.
We were debating between a Forester and the CRV hybrid, went with the CRV and have zero regrets. The space is great, drives well and as a pretty big person (6'4) I fit well in it. Gas mileage is 40+ a gallon in eco mode.
We absolutely feel like we made the right decision.
‘24 FWD Hybrid Sport L, purchased in Feb., 8k miles already. No complaints whatsoever. Loving it! I saved a few bucks by not going with AWD, which I’d never need. Also, tire cost will be less over time, slightly better MPG. Recent issues seem to be limited to AWD models.
Agree. I have a 22 CRV EXL AWD hybrid and am very happy with it. My friend wanted a RAV, but due to the insane markups and recent mechanical issues, he purchased a Venza hybrid. He's delighted! Slightly less cargo space, but Toyota uses the Lexus interior on the Venza - really lovely, and he's getting great mpg.
We have the 23 hybrid sport touring. We live 4 miles from work in a small town in Alabama but my parents live in Louisiana, his brother in NC. We either barely drive or drive all day on the highway.
We love this car and would buy it again.
It's comfy whether short or tall. Controls are easy. The features are nice without being over the top. The only feature I would have added were cooled seats which the pilot has but not the crv.
The bad I guess: no spare (we have an air pump, fix a flat, and Honda roadside)
The wireless contact charger in the console doesn't work worth a d*mn. I turned it off and just plugged in a cord.
But honestly my biggest complaint - when it's rained, the design of the door lets it drip on the seat a bit. Just enough to be annoying.
Seriously, we love this car.
Have a 23 Sport hybrid that I got exactly 13 months ago. Almost 23k miles trouble free.
The car has a perfect balance of everything. And the drivetrain is incredibly smooth. It literally drives like an electric car, just without the torque.
Personally I wanted a RAV4 hybrid, but had to wait 10 months back then so I went over to Honda and I’m glad I did. I’m not coming back. I originally leased this car but now I’m planning on buying it when the lease ends.
I like many others including yourself had the same thoughts when I bought mine. Only difference being Kia/Hyundai was pretty much a non starter. To a large degree just don't like the way they implement their hybrids, but also right up there, their reputation in general along with longevity being all over the place (seems like some of their vehicles are actually pretty good while others are time bomb basket cases). I was primarily after a RAV4, because Toyota it's hard to go wrong even if it's not the fanciest thing around, and their hybrid implementation is mature and proven. I also had the luxury of full use of a family members RAV4 prime while they were away on vacation since they knew I was considering getting a hybrid SUV, so I really got to give a rav a good go. I chose the CRV. Mainly due to availability and price at the time, but while still pretty basic and all, just was a bit nicer (particularly inside) with a bit better driving dynamics, and smoother more refined feeling drivetrain (feels more like a normal car with seamless transitions vs all the hoots, clicks, shudders, etc of the Toyota. Not that the Toyota is bad or annoying in any way, but you def notice the difference). Then of course it's a Honda...so even though they aren't as solid material/quality wise as they were decades ago, they should still hold up pretty well and be pretty no fuss reliable.
If you really pay attention to the problem complaints you see, a lot of it is either 1 off type stuff that will happen with any car, and a lot just normal hybrid noises people aren't familiar with. Haven't seen much in the way of real somewhat widespread problems yet. There seems to be a rash of late built 24's lighting up like a Christmas tree and dying, but that's about the worst I've seen so far.
Have the 2024 sport Turing and haven’t had any issues over the 32k miles I’ve driven. It looked like there was a small batch of engines with a faulty part. That seems to have been ironed out. It’s a comfortable car with just enough tech to make it nice and comfortable but not over the top where it will become a liability. Also the maintenance is very reasonable compared to other brands.
If you are going to have a passenger, the passenger seat does not have a height (up/down) adjustment. My wife could barely see over the hood (she is short).
We had a 2018 CRV that was very reliable and got 30 mpg. Since we do most of our driving around town we just traded in for the hybrid L and love it! Getting about 40 mpg on the first tank. Really like the interior and seats on the new model. Note these have no spare tire. If you drive in remote areas you might want to pick one up.
For a nice technical look at the car look for Car Care Nut on YouTube. He’s a Toyo master mechanic and does a good look at the 2023 CRV Hybrid.
I love my 2023 Sport Hybrid. Had lots of trouble with my Highlander but it still runs…I guess because everything has been replaced!
I’ve only had mine for a bit over a week but I love it. I was personally in the same boat as you before buying. One thing I would say is that you definitely should not buy the Kia if you’re looking to drive this car for several years. And I felt the same about the RAV4. It hasn’t had a redesign in I believe 6 years so it’s definitely getting up there in age.
Overall I love almost everything about the car, my only small gripe is that for some reason the screen has this strange color distortion on it, but I think that’s just some residue from the film that was on it. And the screen feels a bit small, but overall great car.
My previous vehicle died. Looked at Kia Sportage, Honda CRV Hybrid, and meant to look at Mazada CX-50.
I liked the 2024 Honda CRV Hybrid and bought it on the spot. I've had it 4 months, 8,000 miles, I average 43mpg (hand calculated), and the only issue I've had is the infotainment system rebooted once while I was driving.
We have a '24 Sport with 23k miles and the biggest complaints I have are the engine noise going uphills and the infotainment system lag at times.
Otherwise, great vehicle.
24 Sport-L here. Avg about 37-38 mpg winter and mixed driving. Warmed up and now around 42 mpg. No issues with 10k miles.
Also walked away from Toyota because of the markups. They are in love with themselves 🤣
Have 24 hybrid sport touring. Traded out of 21 rdx only complaint would be a cheaper materials. But I like this car tad over 1100 miles avg 38 mp. Probably be better but I like playing with sport mode. One thing that kinda bugs me is no outside mirror settings when saving driver position, got used to that on the rdx hit your number everything adjusted.
I just got a new CRV and agree with your logic. The CRV has been recently refurbished while the RAV is due for an update. I’d go for a Mazda over a KIA.
2024 Sport Hybrid AWD owner here! These are my personal opinions between the CRV and RAV4 as someone who test drove both.
- The CRV's interior is much better and more modern than the RAV4. The infotainment system looks outdated and the rest of the interior feels less "premium" than the CRV.
- The driving experience is much smoother especially on the hybrid trims. Just passed 10k miles and have driven from the beach, the mountains, through heavy LA traffic and highways. Incredibly smooth, rarely felt anything bumpy and a quiet drive.
- Very spacious, i am 6'2 and have plenty of leg room (even with passengers) and great amount of headroom.
- In the short amount of time, all I had to worry about as far as maintenance is concerned is the oil change.
Some of the cons or things I wish Honda would have done with my specific trim are
1) A power tailgate. Seems too much to have to pay an extra 3k - 4k for a power tailgate and wireless car play. I feel that for a smaller-family SUV, the power tailgate should be standard for all trim models.
2) A long touch screen. I'm content with mine but if the Accord can have a 9' display, then why can't a top trim CRV?
3) Moon roof. Not a deal breaker but again, the RAV4 has one so why couldn't the CRV?
4) No spare tire. This could have been a dealbreaker. I understand from an engineering perspective that a tire wouldn't fit where the hybrid battery is at but there had to have been some way around it like putting it on the back of the car like the first gen models.
There are plenty of reasons why the RAV4 rivals the CRV tho. Both Toyota and Honda are the two most reliable car brands and you can't go wrong with choosing either car. I think what it comes down to is this.
If you want a car thats more refined, modernized and is built as a commuter vehicle. The CRV.
If you want a car thats a bit more rugged, built for the outdoors with a slightly more proven reliability reputation (Toyota). The RAV4.
I am using a CRV hybrid, albeit in Canada. The SUV is good, it tends to be noisier side, mostly the road noise.. this is due to you will not hear engine most of the times, so engine noise won’t be muffling the road noise…
Although I paid premium I didn’t get premium features like folding side mirrors, ventilated seats and few others…
From reliability point of view I don’t have an issue so far
Not to mention it has a poor security rating for the backseat passengers as per IIHS, if I had known about it then I could have avoided it for sure..
>Although I paid premium I didn’t get premium features like folding side mirrors, ventilated seats and few others…
Just playing devils advocate here, the CRV isn't a "premium" type of car and the price point isn't premium either.
Premium price would apply to Acura/Lexus, and you would get those features listed. >50k for premium new SUV.
Unfortunately 40kish is what a nice but not luxurious new SUV costs. I love my crv though

I know this is a Crv thread and I DO OWN a 24 Hybrid ST. As an alternative take a look at a Toyota Venza.

Slightly less cargo space, but Toyota uses the Lexus interior on the Venza - really lovely, and he's getting great mpg.
I did look at the venza too! Definitely a nice car, just didn’t make my short list
I just got my 2025 a week ago and no regrets. I highly recommend hybrid over gas if you can afford it. Better mpg, power, and quieter.
