Overall Average Rating - 88.29%
Position in the Top 100 cars - 14th

It's not the sleekest SUV around, but the CR-V still posts a strong performance. Eighth place for practicality shows this is one seriously versatile family tool.

However, it seems drivers aren’t so happy behind the wheel, as average rankings for handling, performance and braking could be better.

Manufacturer Verdict (Position - 5th)

Bosses will be concerned to see Honda drop two places in the manufacturer chart. The Top 100 podium eluded the Accord and Civic, so all hope will rest on the latest Jazz boosting the firm’s ranking next year.
