Is the 2023 Honda CR-V a good car?

Drivers consistently praise its smooth ride, quality interior, and great features, and they also respond well to its safety and economy.

The overview also points to a strong balance of comfort and practicality, which fits shoppers who value space and refinement over flash.

The trade-offs are clear: the transmission can be irritating, the styling is uninspired, and it does not bring much technological innovation. Even so, the market still shows 26.4% of listings as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Honda CR-V reliable?

Owners rate it 4.71/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience, with drivers highlighting the CR-V’s smooth ride, quality interior, and strong everyday usability. The expert review also describes it as a vehicle that will likely remain one of the best-selling vehicles in Canada, which supports the case for broad buyer confidence. Honda’s updated powertrain and feature set help it feel like a mature, well-sorted design.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about outright durability and more about living with the CVT’s character and the model’s higher pricing than before.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Honda CR-V?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX-B uses cloth upholstery and comes without some of the upgrades found higher up, while the EX-L adds leather-wrapped seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, a larger touchscreen, a power-adjustable front passenger’s seat, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a power rear liftgate, and front and rear parking sensors. The EX-L is the best-value trim if you want the strongest mix of comfort and convenience.
• Powertrain: Gas-only models use a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine with 190 horsepower and 179 lb-ft of torque, paired with a CVT and available with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The hybrid powertrain is available in Canada for the first time.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centring assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert are included, though some B series trims omit these features.
• Infotainment: Most trims get a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The EX-L upgrades to a 9-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, wireless charging, and an upgraded eight-speaker sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada says the test vehicle should see 8.4 L/100 km in combined driving, and the review’s evaluation route returned 8.1 L/100 km.

Which 2023 Honda CR-V trim should I buy?

The 2023 Honda CR-V is offered in 4 trim levels: LX-B, Sport, EX-L, Touring Hybrid.

Here's the short version:

• LX-B: This is the entry point, and it makes sense if you want the CR-V’s core space, comfort, and safety without paying for extra convenience features.
• Sport: This trim sits above the base model and is a better fit if you want a step up in equipment while staying below the EX-L’s higher price.
• EX-L: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the larger touchscreen, wireless smartphone connectivity, wireless charging, a better sound system, and several comfort upgrades.
• Touring Hybrid: Choose this if you want the top-of-the-line hybrid model and are willing to pay for the most feature-rich version.

Honda Sensing is standard, but some B series trims omit blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Honda CR-V?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile options.

• Deal availability: 26.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 929 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.90% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $32,540 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Honda CR-V's resale value?

The current average of $32,659 CAD sits slightly below last year's $36,655 CAD.

That softer pricing can help you buy more confidently now, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive market if prices continue to normalise. The current trend suggests the CR-V is no longer commanding the same premium it did a year ago, which can limit upside for short-term resale. Even so, strong demand for practical compact SUVs should help support values if the model continues to attract shoppers looking for space and refinement.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.71/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Honda CR-V safe?

The 2023 Honda CR-V earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is the standard driver-assistance suite, and it includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centring assist, automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. New features also include a seatbelt reminder system, rear-seat reminder system, driver monitoring system, and traffic sign recognition system.

A trim-level caveat matters here: some B series trims omit blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. The review also notes that lane-centring assist can feel uncertain in some highway situations and can add an artificial feel to the steering.

Should I buy a 2023 Honda CR-V or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 26.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.90% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.71/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2023 model brings a redesign, new infotainment, new safety features, and the first Canada-available hybrid powertrain for the CR-V.

The bottom line: If you want the most up-to-date CR-V in this range, the 2023 is the one to target because it adds meaningful redesign and feature improvements while still offering strong everyday usability. If your priority is stretching your budget further, a nearby older year may be worth considering, but you’ll be giving up some of the 2023’s updated tech and safety content.
