honda has announced pricing for the 2020 cr-v. the big-selling crossover will start at $26,145 for the base lx model with front-wheel drive. the 2020 model's starting price increases $600 over the 2019 cr-v base model. the cr-v adds a standard turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque, which replaces the previous 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine. also new for 2020 is standard honda sensing active-safety technology, which includes lane-keeping assist, automated emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control.
the cr-v touring with all-wheel drive is the top-end model, starting at $35,845 for 2020. in between are ex, and ex-l trim levels, and all models are available with front- or all-wheel-drive.
the front-wheel-drive cr-v's epa fuel-economy numbers are 34 mpg on the highway and 30 mpg combined, honda said. all-wheel drive adds $1500 to the price and drops mileage to 32 mpg highway and 29 mpg combined.
the 2020 cr-v arrives in showrooms on november 5, except for the cr-v hybrid, which goes on sale early next year. we expect the hybrid to have a price premium similar to the accord hybrid, which costs $1600 more than the equivalent nonhybrid models.
