The CR-V's 2.4-liter four-cylinder provides adequate oomph thanks in part to a responsive five-speed automatic transmission that picks the right gear and hangs on during a smooth revving process. The drivetrain makes 185 horsepower and 163 pounds-feet of torque, and that proved enough to motivate our all-wheel-drive tester even with four adults aboard. Credit the SUV's spry curb weight; it's anywhere from 65 to 472 pounds lighter than comparable base and well-equipped versions of the Toyota RAV4, Chevrolet Equinox and Ford Escape.

Steering is drama-free, with natural feedback and settled highway composure. The wheel directs the SUV through curves just enough, but on winding roads the CR-V feels less athletic than the Mazda CX-5 and Ford Escape. Throw it around, and the Honda's pitchy body roll exposes a limited fun factor.

Ride quality, which was a nagging issue in the prior-gen CR-V, now impresses. For this class, the CR-V isolates well on the highway and clomps through ruts and manholes with little disruption. It's not a particularly quiet experience, though. My test vehicle's tires — Bridgestone Dueler Sport P225/65R17 all-seasons — filtered little road noise. Similarly, the cabin did little to quell wind noise, which was pervasive throughout my time in the CR-V.

With front-wheel drive, EPA-estimated mileage is 23/31/26 mpg city/highway/combined. All-wheel drive loses 1 mpg across the board. The combined EPA figures are competitive in the field, and I averaged 28.1 mpg over some 610 mostly highway miles in my all-wheel-drive tester. That's decent, considering that mileage included hauling as many as four occupants and considerable time idling. Read more about my observed mileage here.

A driver-selectable Econ mode relaxes drivetrain response, cruise control and air conditioning to improve gas mileage. It introduces some sluggishness to the automatic's downshift response, but it didn't bog down much else.

Honda and Mario Andretti cite pedestrians for excessive slowness

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Honda and the Andretti family have a lot to celebrate at the moment. Andretti Autosport driver Ryan Hunter-Reay won the 2014 Indianapolis 500 in his Honda-powered car, and Marco Andretti, Mario's grandson, also managed to take the third step on the podium. Apparently, the victory is making them feel magnanimous because Honda and Mario Andretti are giving the chance to ride with him in a two-seat, open wheel car.
To promote the contest, they created the Honda Speed Patrol to ticket anyone going too slow. It's an interesting idea, and the chance to ride with Andretti would be the opportunity of a lifetime. Perhaps the biggest shock of the video, though, might be when you realize how short Mario is when you see him milling about in public. Scroll down to watch one of America's most respected racers cite people in Chicago for being too slow.

Honda celebrates the life of Ayrton Senna the best way it knows how

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

Honda is returning to Formula One in 2015 with McLaren, and when that engine maker and that F1 constructor are mentioned together, two other words are never far behind: Ayrton Senna. There are engine suppliers, constructors and drivers that have bigger numbers, but those three form a triumvirate that came close to defining F1 in the eighties.
Honda Japan has produced a commercial called Sound of Honda that celebrates Senna at a race that turned out to be one of the most momentous of his career for good and bad reasons: the 1989 grand prix at Suzuka where he won, then was stripped of, the driver's championship.
The commercial has a terrifically simple premise - there's no CG, no old footage of Senna, no one says a word, it's just sound. And it's pretty damn good. Check it out below.
