Honda CR-V in Roanoke, VA
When you drive a 2025 Honda Civic or Civic Hybrid around Roanoke, it’s impossible not to smile. Honda has quietly refined every detail - soft-touch dash surfaces, sharp exterior lines, and that turbocharged kick (or hybrid-electric smoothness) that make even errands feel special.
Under the hood, choose the turbo-charged 1.5 L engine for spirited performance or the hybrid powertrain for up to 40 mpg combined EPA estimated miles. Add class-leading cargo space, advanced safety tech, and a starting price in the low $30 Ks MSRP. No wonder Roanoke drivers can’t stop talking about the CR-V.
Others have acknowledged the Honda CR-V as a superior vehicle, with the CR-V scooping up additional accolades recently. Kelley Blue Book announced the Honda CR-V as the winner of its 2025 Best Buy Awards for compact SUVs. And the CR-V appeared on Car and Driver's 10Best Trucks and SUVs list again - its sixth time on a Car and Driver's 10Best list.

Why Choose the Honda CR-V for Your Next New SUV?
Quality You Can Feel
Whether you’re navigating Williamson Road traffic or heading out for a weekend on the Blue Ridge Parkway, the CR-V’s chassis and suspension soak up bumps and keep the ride composed. Premium materials and precise fit-and-finish mean fewer rattles and a cabin that feels upscale - mile after mile.
Smart, Connected Technology
From “Hey Google” voice commands to wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and an available Wi-Fi hotspot, the CR-V keeps everyone connected. Features like a hands-free liftgate and panoramic moonroof add convenience and flair - perfect for grocery runs around Salem or gear loading before a Blacksburg trip.

Fuel Economy That Matters
In the Hybrid model, a 2.0 L Atkinson-cycle engine paired with an electric motor delivers up to 40 mpg combined, while the turbo variant still returns 28 mpg highway EPA estimated miles—a real benefit for Lynchburg commuters keeping an eye on the pump.
Safety You Can Trust
Every CR-V comes standard with Honda Sensing®, which includes collision mitigation braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and road departure mitigation. CR-V earned the IIHS Top Safety Pick for 2024-2025. On top of that, the CR-V holds a 5-Star overall safety rating from NHTSA, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Outstanding Value & Resale
Honda’s reputation for reliability translates to strong resale. That's one reason why CR-V was named a Kelly Blue Book Best Buy. KBB data shows the CR-V retaining more of its worth than most rivals - so you you'll be in good shape when you want to sell or trade.
