About the Honda CR-V Mk4
The fourth-generation Honda CR-V received a significant mid-life update in 2015, introducing the Earth Dreams 1.6-litre i-DTEC diesel engine to replace the older 2.2-litre unit. In this 120 PS front-wheel-drive configuration, the CR-V prioritises fuel economy and low emissions over outright performance, making it a popular choice for high-mileage family duties. The interior is noted for its 'Magic Seats' functionality and a boot capacity that remains one of the largest in its class. While not engaging to drive, it offers a refined, comfortable ride and a reputation for mechanical longevity that sustains its used market value.
