The updated 2026 Honda CR-V has officially launched in the Philippines, marking 30 years since the CR-V was first introduced.
The new lineup now consists of three variants:
The updated CR-V cars offer leather upholstery and a 9-inch touchscreen panel with built-in Google services, plus wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The brand also expanded the CR-V range with a new hybrid all-wheel-drive option. The RS e:HEV AWD is now the only CR-V in the Philippines with power sent to all four wheels.
A second hybrid, the VX e:HEV, uses the same system but drives the front wheels. The V Turbo HuNT continues as the sole non-hybrid model.
The CR-V 2.0 VX e:HEV e-CVT and CR-V 2.0 RS e:HEV AWD e-CVT cars use a 2.0-liter engine with electric motors, which delivers a total of 184 PS and 335 Nm.
Honda has also added an Individual drive mode for these variants. The V Turbo HuNT runs on a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with 190 PS and 240 Nm, paired with a CVT.
Honda has also revised the safety equipment. The side-view LaneWatch camera has been removed, replaced by blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, alongside the standard Honda Sensing driver-assist systems.
