The front suspension was double-wishbone, while the rear used a trailing arm-based multilink system. The chassis was a unibody design with fully independent suspension. The engine used a one-piece cylinder sleeve construction unique from any other B-series engine. Outer dimensions for this engine would be identical to the Integra's 1.8 L engine, but internally the engine had a larger 84 mm (3.3 in) bore vs 81 mm (3.2 in) for the Integra, to add the extra displacement needed to produce more torque. Upon introduction, the model had only one trim level, which would later be known as the LX model trim it was powered by the 2.0-liter straight-four B20B producing 126 hp (94 kW) at 5400 rpm and 133 lb⋅ft (180 N⋅m) of torque at 4800 rpm. For the North American market, it was displayed at the 1996 Chicago Auto Show and went on sale in February 1997. When the CR-V was introduced in Japan in October 1995 it was sold only at Honda Verno and Honda Primo dealerships and exceeded Japanese government's compact car regulations regarding exterior dimensions (maximum width of 1,700 mm (66.9 in), therefore incurred a more expensive annual road tax obligation. The first generation CR-V or RD1 was Honda's first in-house designed sport utility vehicle by Hiroyuki Kawase. It is currently Honda's best-selling vehicle in the world, and the second best-selling SUV globally in 2020. Īs of 2022, the CR-V is positioned between the smaller ZR-V (marketed as HR-V in North America) and the larger North American market Passport/ Pilot or the Chinese market Avancier/ UR-V.
Honda states "CR-V" stands for "Comfortable Runabout Vehicle," while the term "Compact Recreational Vehicle" is used in a British car review article that was republished by Honda. The CR-V is also produced in Wuhan for the Chinese market by Dongfeng Honda, and also marketed as the Breeze in China for the version produced at Guangzhou by Guangqi Honda. Honda began producing the CR-V in Sayama, Japan, and Swindon, United Kingdom, for worldwide markets, adding North American manufacturing sites in East Liberty, Ohio, United States, in 2007 El Salto, Jalisco, Mexico, in late 2007 (ended in early 2017) Alliston, Ontario, Canada, in 2012 and Greensburg, Indiana, United States, in February 2017. The early models were built using the same platform as the Civic. The Honda CR-V (also sold as the Honda Breeze in China since 2019) is a compact crossover SUV manufactured by the Japanese automaker Honda since 1995.
