First introduced to UK roads in 1997, the Honda CRV has gone through various subtle changes that set it apart from many other 4 x 4 vehicles available today.

Mainly utilising front wheel drive means that you get all the luxurious benefits of a 4 x 4 without the same fuel consumption. If the wheels are deemed to be slipping, the four wheel drive action kicks in for improved handling. Due to these improvements, Whatcar have recently awarded the Honda CRV a 'greenest 4 x4' accolade.
