The CR-V was the Honda’s most practical SUV, and for 2007, the refined vehicle got larger and more powerful.
The SUV was redesigned to serve the needs of a larger audience. Practicality was increased, with the previous version’s side-hinged rear gated and exterior-mounted spare tired replaced with an overhead liftgate and also an under-floor space to increase storage space.

For the interior, Honda upgraded the quality of the materials used, as well as added an available navigation for the first time.

A single engine option was available, namely the 2.4-liter 4-cyilinder powerplant that developed 166 hp. The engine was mated with a 5-speed automatic tranmission.

The 2007 CR-V was available in three trim levels, the LX, the EX and the EX-L. The base model was pretty well equipped, with 17-inch wheels, air-conditioning, a folding center tray and full power accessories.

The EX added alloy wheels, a moonroof, a better audio system and a rear cargo shelf.

Moving to the top of the range, customers enjoyed a DVD-based navigation system with a rear-view camera, a PC card reader and a rear subwoofer.

All trim levels came with available front-wheel-drive or an all-wheel drive system.

Safety wise, the majority of the features were standard, including antilock disc brakes, stability control, brake assist, front-seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags, as well as a tire-pressure monitor.

As the rear-view camera was only available with the top of the range trim level, the lower trim levels came with available parking sensors.
