For The Modern Adventure

If it's power that you seek, then you're in luck. The 2011 CR-V boasts a powerful 180-horsepower engine that's eager to please, but not at the expense of fuel efficiency.6 By combining power and practicality, the CR-V makes sure you are up to the challenge.

4-Wheeled Confidence

The available Real Time™ 4wD system is just the thing for drives in the snow or rain or virtually any condition with a low-traction surface. If the system detects a loss of traction, it can automatically send power to the rear wheels to help keep you underway. And there is no need for driver intervention, so you can stay focused on the challenging road ahead.

Six Airbags

A full array of airbags is at the ready to help protect you and your passengers in sufficient impacts. Dual-stage, multiple-threshold front airbags, side-curtain airbags with rollover sensor and front side airbags with passenger-side Occupant Position Detection system (OPDs) are all standard equipment in every CR-V.*VEhIClE sTAbIlITY AssIsT™VsA ® ? helps sense oversteer and understeer, and then can adjust brake pressure at each wheel and reduce engine power to help restore the driver's intended path of travel. ACE™

Body Structure

The Advanced Compatibility Engineering™(ACE) body structure is a honda-exclusive body design that enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions. The ACE design utilizes a network of connected structural elements to help distribute crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle. 

Advanced Braking

The 4-wheel anti-lock brakes also feature brake Assist, which helps the driver apply full braking in some emergency situations. Electronic brake Distribution (EbD) helps balance braking forces, depending upon dynamic loading.

Crash Courses

We learn by testing in some of the world's most sophisticated labs. The knowledge gained is seen in how we engineer our vehicles, with front and rear crush zones that help absorb crash energy before it can reach the passenger compartment.

Child Safety

The CR-V's standard lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (lATCh) system makes it easier to install compatible child seats.

Active Front Head Restraints

Every 2012 CR-V comes with active head restraints in the front seats, which in a sufficient rear impact move forward and upward to reduce the likelihood of head and neck injury.

*Honda reminds you and your passengers to always buckle up. Children 12 and under are safest when properly restrained in the rear seat.

?VSA is not a substitute for safe driving. It cannot correct the vehicle's course in every situation or compensate for reckless driving. Control of the vehicle always remains with the driver.
