Honda Unveils Hybrid CR-V In Shanghai

Honda has equipped its CR-V medium SUV with a hybrid powertrain for the first time, revealing the more miserly variant at the Shanghai Auto Show.

Despite the landmark new engine option, Honda had little in the way of details to share about the newest CR-V revealing only a 2.0-litre engine under the bonnet and a two-motor hybrid system adapted from the Accord Hybrid, with no confirmation of power, torque or fuel consumption figures at the car’s unveiling.

While China, and likely North America, are to be targeted as prime candidates for the CR-V hybrid, Australia will miss out.
