Honda has a fresh CRV for 2023, sporting new style, a refined interior, and some nicer options. You can choose between a gas or hybrid model and front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, which one is right for you? Let's take a walk through the lineup and see what makes sense.

It's worth noting that even the least efficient version of the 2023 CRV returns over 30 miles per gallon on the highway. That would be the all-wheel drive gas only models, while the most efficient is the front-wheel drive hybrid, which delivers 43 miles per gallon in the city and 40 miles per gallon in combined driving for the CRV.

It all starts with the base EX model. There is no longer a bassier LX version, but power is provided by a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque. That torque is available from 1700 RPM on up to 5000 RPM. The EX model comes with a CVT transmission and can be paired with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. It wears 18-inch wheels, has a full suite of safety features as standard, including Auto High Beam Headlights, Hill Start Assist, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The infotainment controls are located on the 7-inch touchscreen display, and you have a pair of USB ports up front. You also have a black mesh grille on the nose, body-colored mirrors with integrated turn signals, and a 10-way power adjustable driver seat.

The starting price of the EX is $32,905 for the front-wheel drive model and $34,405 for the one with all-wheel drive. Next up is the CRV Sport, a hybrid model that offers both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive options as well. The powertrain pairs a 2-liter four-cylinder engine with electric motors to deliver a combined output of 204 horsepower and 247 pound-feet of torque, similar to the EX. However, the Sport gets a seven-inch touchscreen but the 18-inch wheels on this one are painted black. It also has more aggressive front and rear fascias and a different lower bumper design, offering up more style than the EX with similar features.

The Sport starts at $34,245 for the front-wheel drive model and $35,745 for the all-wheel drive version. Following that is the EX-L, a gas-only model like the EX, but still offers a choice between front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. This is where you start to get nicer upgrades on the inside, including wireless charging and Wireless CarPlay in Android Auto. The seven-inch center screen is swapped out for a nicer 9-inch display instead of the base six-speaker system. You also have a 320-watt eight speaker audio system and have Auto up/down on all windows, not just the driver's side. There's leather on the shifter and steering wheel, and the driver's seat gets a two-position memory setup with front and rear parking sensors.

The CRV EX-L starts at $35,555 for the front-wheel drive model, while the one with all-wheel drive is $37,000 and 55 dollars. Finally, there is the top spec 2023 Honda CRV, which is the Sport Touring model. This one is hybrid only and comes standard with all-wheel drive, taking the cooler style of the Sport model and the nicer interior features of the EX-L to give you the best overall CRV experience. The other seat gets power adjustability, and you have 19-inch blacked-out wheels on the outside, ambient lighting on the door handles, a heated steering wheel, and rain-sensing wipers. Additionally, EX-L gets a power tailgate but on the Sport Touring it's a hands-free power tailgate.

The CRV Sport Touring starts at $40,395, which is definitely the nicest of the bunch, offering a great place to be with any new car right now, not to mention one with 37 miles per gallon in combined driving. It's worth noting that if you want a hybrid model and want to save a few bucks but can live without a power tailgate, the Sport is probably a great middle ground for you. Get it with all-wheel drive and you're well under the $40,000 mark.

In conclusion, Honda has released an updated CRV lineup in 2023 that includes both gas-powered and hybrid models. With so many different options and trim levels available, there's something for everyone when it comes to finding your perfect CRV.
