Cool Honda CRV Bone White




 Cool Honda CRV Bone White

For the 2012 model year, the CR-V receives modest style, powertrain, and equipment changes. The exterior changes include a redesigned front fascia with a new horizontal-slat chrome grille and honeycomb-designed lower front grille, new front bumper, and revised taillights. The rear bumper is also redesigned, as well as new five split-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels for EX and EX-L models. The interior gains minor changes, such as improved seat fabrics, and wider driver & front-passenger armrests. The audio head unit controls are altered and the information display backlighting in the gauges is blue instead of the previous black. USB audio input is standard in the EX-L trim while hands-free Bluetooth connectivity is exclusive to the EX-L trim equipped with navigation system. In 2011, a mid-level SE trim debuted with a 6 disc CD changer and 17 inch 7 spoke alloy wheels that came from the pre-facelift EX and EX-L trims.

Power is increased from 166 to 180 hp (124 to 130 kW) for 2010 and mileage is improved by 1 mpg for both front-wheel and all-wheel drive models. EPA ratings are now 21 miles per US gallon (11 L/100 km; 25 mpg-imp) / 28 miles per US gallon (8.4 L/100 km; 34 mpg-imp) city/highway and 21 miles per US gallon (11 L/100 km; 25 mpg-imp) / 27 miles per US gallon (8.7 L/100 km; 32 mpg-imp) city/highway respectively. Specified oil weight changed from 5W-20 to 0W-20 from previous years with a change to the K24Z6 engine.

The 2012 CR-V was launched at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show[19] and it is powered with a 2.4-liter i-VTEC inline-four engine that puts out 185 hp and 163 pound-feet (220Nm ) of torque at 4,400 rpm along with an all-new Real-Time all-wheel-drive (AWD) with intelligent control system. Front-wheel-drive CR-Vs now get 23 mpg in the city and 31 on the highway, while models with the optional full-time all-wheel-drive are rated at 22 mpg and 30 mpg, respectively.

In Japan, the 2012 CR-V was launched on November 28, 2011 and has been on sale since December 2, 2011. The Japan-spec 2012 CR-V is offered in 2.4 L and 2.0 L variants. The 2.0 L variant is mated with continuously variable transmission with torque converter that brings out the engine’s best performance while offering the same off-the-line acceleration and overall acceleration performance as the 2.4 L model.
