Total of 6 airbags, inexpensive ABS option, TPMS and overall handling. Driven 29,000 miles over last 28 months & no repairs, just routine & inexpensive maintenance.
Excellent highway mileage, 35 MPG to 40 MPG at steady speed below 70 MPH on long trips on flat freeways with Max AC On. Highway MPG drop below 35 MPG at higher cruise speed above 70 MPH. Stop & Go driving, city mileage vary, 18 MPG to 22 MPG average.
Comfortable & wide seating, almost as good as our newer 2008 CRV AWD, for both driver & passenger. Centre console area is small & could be better designed, especially cup holder & 12 volt power outlet.
Everything within easy reach, very tiny blind spots easily taken care of with convex mirrors. Passenger can recline with seat all the way back & still can get 2 adult passengers in rear seating.
Excellent legrooms & headrests for 2 adult passengers, 3rd. person is fine for shorter trip as ours is mainly a solo driven commuter car most of the time. Seatback folds almost flat forward for larger packages (great for shopping at IKEA)
