Engine Specs
The new Honda CR-V offers two engines for this year’s lineup, each with competitive designed to give you Honda’s reputable reliability and capability.
- 2.4L 4-Cylinder Engine: Standard on the LX trim, this engine generates up to 184-hp and 180 lb.-ft. of torque. This 16-valve DOHC i-VTEC® engine has direct fuel injection and a drive-by-wire throttle system. Together with the Eco Assist System, you’ll receive maximum efficiency without compromising power.
- 1.5L 4-Cylinder Engine: Standard on the rest of the CR-V lineup is this turbocharged engine that develops up to 190-hp and 179 lb.-ft. of torque. This 16-valve DOHC powertrain also features direct fuel injection, a drive-by-wire throttle system, and the Eco Assist System.
Transmission
Both engines offered on the Honda CR-V are paired with a continuously variable transmission, or CVT, with Sport Mode. Instead of switching gears like a traditional automatic transmission, the CVT moves seamlessly between gear ratios, offering you a more fuel efficient design.
Real Time All-Wheel Drive
For those who want to boost the control and traction that the 2017 Honda CR-V has to offer, upgrading to Real Time AWD with Intelligent Control System is a wise choice. Available with both engines offered on this model, this AWD system uses Intelligent Control which reacts to driver input as well as road conditions to divert power where it is needed. Working with Vehicle Stability Control, you’ll have maximum traction when needed.

Other Performance Features
Beyond the obvious, the 2017 Honda CR-V was built with many special performance features to combine and offer a seamless ride as you commute or take adventures through Wyoming.
- Variable Ratio Electric Power-Assisted Rack-and-Pinion Steering: By evaluating your steering input as well as road conditions, this EPS system makes corrections and slight adjustments to give you accurate navigation in any situation.
- Suspension: MacPherson Strut front suspension and Multi-Link Double Wishbone rear suspension work together to give you a smooth ride that adjusts to bumps on the road seamlessly for a level cabin.
- Power-Assisted Brakes: Hydraulic assistance means you’ll have more responsive brakes that bring you to a quick and safe stop when you need to. Working with Anti-lock and electronic-distribution, these high performance brakes are designed to bring you to a halt in the shortest distance possible when you come up on traffic or an unexpected obstruction on the road.
- Honda Sensing: This package of driver assistance technology includes features like Lane Keeping Assist System, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, and Blind Spot Monitoring System with Cross Traffic Monitor to keep constant vigilance of vehicles around you, alerting you when an accident is possible and intervening with brake and steering torque when necessary to avoid an impact or road departure.
- Remote Engine Start: Standard on the EX, EX-L, and Touring trims, this feature allows you to start the engine before you leave your home or office by pressing a button on your smart key fob so you can warm up or cool down the cabin before getting inside the CR-V.
