What owners say
"Overall, drivers of the 2009 Honda CR-V appreciate its reliability, comfort, and good fuel economy, often praising it for being well-built and practical. Many enjoy the spaciousness and the great handling of the car. However, some owners mention that the engine can feel underpowered, especially when using air conditioning, and express disappointment with the cargo space and road noise."
It’s worth a look. It drove nice and has good features.
June 7, 2026Reliable , attractive, priced affordable. Was well maintained with low mileage for its age with enough features to make it a great car to be in. Its a honda without all the electric gizmos that cause trouble looking forward to many wonderful miles ahead.

February 12, 2015I love the upgrades from my 2007 Honda CR-V EX-L. It’s got a power driver’s seat and front dual air conditioning, which was what I wanted. It looks brand new with only 73,000 miles on a 2009! I was also considering a Toyota RAV4 but it doesn’t have enough leg room in the passenger’s seat for my 6’2” husband to be comfortable. The dealer description named the incorrect exterior color. (No photos posted yet.) so I was a little disappointed when I arrived to test drive the car but the car drives great.
April 20, 2023Nothing to dislike so far at all. The car has all the features I wanted, nice roof rack that fits very well and a ride that is surprisingly smooth. Excellent acceleration for a in line 4 cyclinder. The brakes are responsive but don't grab in hard stops and it is very nibble. Couldn't ask for better quality in workmanship. Everything fits well, tight and is well styled. Love this car so far.
August 7, 2009Previously owned 2001 SE CRV. The 2009 XL model is greatly improved with a more quiet and smoother ride. Interior/exterior quality is what sold me versus the other competitors in this class. Gas mileage has also been improved over the 2001 model. I love driving & owning this car and I'm glad I stayed with Honda.
April 29, 2009I like my CRV - looks great, very reliable, relatively easy on gas, and it's got a good ride. I wish the road noise wasn't as loud as it is though, but I can live with that! It's got plenty of pep too for a 4 cylinder SUV, which I really like.
August 23, 2014Great car for everyone, from families with small kids or singles with lots of stuff! Handles like a car, reliable and has a great safey record. The back cargo area has a unique hard shelf that allows for groceries or other items that go in and out in the same day to be stored on top and blankets, beach chairs and other items which might stay in a car for an extended period of time.
August 10, 2013A good choice for family carrier, I find it pretty and with space in the boot. But clearly underpowered for the weight. The quality is Honda, so there is nothing to say on this respect, and fuel mileage is OK, eventhough this won't weld your back to the seat...
March 29, 2010its an amazing car drives like a charm very roomy good on gas gr8 speed and acceleration handles very well the insurance is a little expensive since you need full cover but its a fun car only had it for about 3 weeks and its already making good and fun memories its a 4wd so its good for dirt roads :)
