Thanks to its big and comfortable interior, sporty handling, and many advanced features, the Honda CR-V is a great choice for many drivers. This vehicle also shines when it comes to gas mileage. However, the engineers at Honda weren’t content with resting on their laurels in this area, which is why they decided to come out with a hybrid version, too. The CR-V Hybrid has everything the regular SUV has but with a more fuel-efficient powertrain. If you’re looking for an eco-friendly vehicle, you will definitely want to look for a Honda CR-V Hybrid for sale. Here, you will get to know what makes this SUV special, along with the different trim levels available.
Top Features of the 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid
Let’s get the obvious out of the way: the 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid is definitely not a thirsty vehicle. In fact, you won’t have to worry about having to fill it up too frequently at all. If you go with front-wheel drive, it gets an EPA-estimated 43 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway, which are terrific numbers.[a] All-wheel drive drops those a little, but you will still get 40 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the highway.[a] You will be especially glad that you won’t have to stop to Fuel up very often because this SUV is just a blast to drive. It has outstanding agility, strong brakes, and a smooth (and quiet!) ride. It has some muscle, too; its 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and two electric motors combine to produce 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque.
Want to know why else you’re going to love the CR-V Hybrid? Because it has tons of space inside. Don’t let the “compact” label fool you; the cabin is large and accommodating. Five people can fit very nicely in its two rows, and there is plenty of headroom and legroom, even for passengers on the tall side. Plus, if you routinely have to travel with a lot of stuff, it offers an exceptional amount of cargo room, with 39.3 cubic feet behind the back seats and 76.5 cubic feet when they are folded. And while a manual liftgate is standard, you can swap that out for a hands-free power liftgate.

Choosing the Right CR-V Hybrid Trim
Once you have decided on a CR-V Hybrid, you aren’t quite done making decisions yet. Now, you have to figure out which trim to go with. There are three to pick from, and they each offer their own unique amenities.
Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport
With all the standard features the Sport comes with, you probably wouldn’t know that it’s the base trim. There are numerous components to keep you comfy, such as cloth upholstery, a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat, heated front seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Inside, you will find a tech-savvy cabin that utilizes a seven-inch digital instrument cluster, along with a seven-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system. This is simple to use, responsive, and compatible with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Sport also has Smart Entry with Walk Away Auto Lock, push-button start, a six-speaker audio system, and four USB ports.
If safety is important to you, the Sport trim is loaded with systems that will help keep you and your passengers protected. These include Traffic Jam Assist, Auto High-Beam Headlights, a Traffic Sign Recognition System, and more.
- Forward Collision Warning and Collision Mitigation Braking System: If your CR-V Hybrid detects a potential collision, you will get an audio and visual alert. If you don’t take fast action, your car can apply the brakes for you—even bringing itself to a full stop if necessary.
- Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist System: Your Honda will warn you if you drift out of your lane inadvertently. Plus, if you don’t quickly do something about it, the SUV can get itself back where it needs to be.
- Blind Spot Information System and Cross Traffic Monitor: With the Blind Spot Information System, you will always know if any vehicles are in your blind spots and whether or not it is safe to change lanes. Cross Traffic Monitor keeps an eye out behind you when you are in reverse and notifies you if any cars are coming from either side.
- Driver Attention Monitor: Your CR-V Hybrid will keep close tabs on your driving behavior. If it detects that you are driving erratically—perhaps due to fatigue—you will get a notification telling you that it might be time to pull over.
- Adaptive Cruise Control: Having to constantly adjust and readjust your speed when driving in cruise control can be pretty annoying. That’s a thing of the past, however, with this feature. If the car in front of you slows down, your CR-V Hybrid will also slow down. If that car speeds up again, your vehicle will do the same until it reaches your pre-set limit.
- Rear Seat Reminder: If you are a parent of young children or frequently drive with dogs, you will appreciate this feature. When you arrive at your destination, your car will remind you to take a look in the back for sleeping kiddies or snoozing pooches.
Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport-L
If you want to get even more enjoyment out of your Honda CR-V Hybrid, moving up to the Sport-L trim is an excellent choice. It comes with several additional comfort features, including leather-trimmed seats, driver's seat memory settings, and a four-way power-adjustable seat for the front passenger. Technology also gets supercharged in this trim. The infotainment system now comes with a nine-inch touchscreen, and it also includes wireless smartphone connectivity and wireless device charging. If you love listening to music, talk radio, podcasts, or anything else, you will appreciate the eight-speaker sound system and built-in HD radio and satellite radio. The Sport-L trim also comes with an automatic dimming rearview mirror and a power tailgate. Plus, to keep you from accidentally smacking into another car—or perhaps your own garage—when trying to park, it includes front and rear parking sensors.
Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring
With the top-of-the-line Sport Touring, you will get pretty much everything found in the two lower trims and some of its own goodies. These include standard all-wheel drive and larger 19-inch wheels. You will also get your own Wi-Fi hotspot and a 12-speaker Bose stereo with exquisite sound quality. If you drive a lot—particularly in places that are not always familiar to you—you will love the fact that the Sport Touring comes with an in-dash navigation system. It also has a heated steering wheel, a hands-free power liftgate, and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
