Honda is saying goodbye to gasoline-only CR-Vs in the US: Starting next year (2027), it's hybrid or nothing.
The new model drops next year and is the first of several hybrid models Honda is bringing to North America by 2030, as Honda shifts focus toward HEVs globally.
This shift comes after hybrid CR-V sales took off since their debut in 2020.
CR V gains 2 motor hybrid
The 2028 CR-V gets a major upgrade with Honda's latest two-motor hybrid system, promising over 10% better fuel efficiency and electric all-wheel drive for smoother rides.
It also marks the CR-V's 30th anniversary, so expect a fresh design and an improved platform.
With more than 7.5 million sold in the US the CR-V keeps its spot as Honda's top SUV.
