2027 Honda CR-V

Exploring the 2027 Honda CR-V in Clarksville, MD

Few vehicles carry as much trust across generations as the CR-V, and the 2027 model keeps making the case. It's a five-passenger compact SUV known for class-leading cargo space, a comfortable and well-built cabin, and the kind of everyday practicality that suits a commute along Route 29 as well as a weekend trip out of Howard County. For 2027, shoppers looking at the gas-powered CR-V get a straightforward, well-equipped lineup of three trims with a turbocharged engine and the option of all-wheel drive. Jim Coleman Honda is proud to offer the CR-V to drivers in Clarksville, Columbia, and across Howard County.

Three Trims: LX, EX, and EX-L

The gas-powered CR-V lineup includes the LX, EX, and EX-L. Each uses the same 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, so the choice between them is about comfort and convenience features rather than performance. The LX is the value-focused starting point, with the 9-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the full Honda Sensing suite. The EX builds on the LX with added comfort and convenience equipment and is the value center of the range, and the EX-L layers on the richest equipment list in the lineup, including leather upholstery and a power liftgate. Trims above the LX also add a power moonroof.

A 190-Horsepower Turbocharged Engine

The 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder produces 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a continuously variable transmission. Honda describes a highly efficient, highly responsive turbocharger that delivers maximum torque when you need it, which makes the CR-V feel lively around town and comfortable on the highway. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available for drivers who want added traction. EPA estimates are 28 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 30 mpg combined for the 2WD models, and 27/31/29 for all-wheel-drive models, which is strong efficiency for a compact SUV with this much interior space.

Class-Leading Cargo Space

The CR-V's biggest everyday advantage is its cargo area. The gas trims offer 39.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, expanding to 76.5 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. That's enough for a big warehouse-store run, a set of golf clubs, or a stroller with room to spare, and the 60/40 split-folding rear seat makes it easy to carry a mix of passengers and cargo. When properly equipped, the gas CR-V can also tow up to 1,500 pounds, which suits a small utility trailer.

Honda Sensing on Every Trim

Every 2027 CR-V comes with the Honda Sensing suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies as standard equipment. That includes features such as Collision Mitigation Braking, Road Departure Mitigation, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, and Lane Keeping Assist. Because it's included on every trim, you get the same core safety foundation whether you choose the LX or the EX-L. For drivers who spend time in the dense traffic of the Baltimore-Washington corridor, adaptive cruise control with low-speed follow can make congested stretches of I-95 noticeably less tiring.

Available Google Built-In

Honda offers an available Google built-in system on the CR-V, which brings Google Gemini as an in-car AI assistant, along with Google Maps navigation and apps from Google Play, directly into the infotainment system. It's a useful addition for drivers who want native navigation and voice assistance without relying on a phone. As with any feature that varies by trim, it's worth asking about which trims offer it when you visit.

A Rugged Design With a Wide Stance

Honda describes the CR-V as having a rugged design with a wide stance, and it's a look that has aged well: confident without being flashy. The rear seat and cargo area are generous, and the cabin is quiet and comfortable on longer drives. It's a vehicle that does a lot of things well, and the 2027 model carries that forward.
