Anyone test driven the 2WD and 4WD. Can share your experience pls? For normal tar road, not driving like a daredevil, feel any difference in stability etc? If no, then I might as well go for 2WD for better acceleration and fuel economy
The 1.5T got sufficient power?

QUOTE(entiti77 @ Mar 18 2023, 05:00 PM) I was looking for the CRV too but surprisingly it didnt meet my expectation. I have no idea if the test car I had driven was a problematic one as i could feel the ABS was not like an ABS, kind of hard braking even when you pressed the pedal very very slowly. When i asked the SA, she was like 'not sure'. I drive a Jazz and honestly speaking the Jazz is far better than the CRV. The CRV won in terms of space, power, features, infotainment and NVH. I was expecting the CRV could handle bumpy road very well, buttttt it might be my expectation was too high or the test drive car was problematic?? ABS. I thought it only get activated during emergency very hard braking? Regarding NVH. I find Honda generally very poor at NVH, compared to Toyota. This CRV good now?

QUOTE(skyp @ Mar 21 2023, 07:12 AM) Thailand base model CRV starts from RM186K. Usually our price is higher? I would go for CX8 with that price  But the CX is over 10 yrs old design with updates.

QUOTE(haroldz123 @ Apr 10 2023, 08:51 AM) I drive jazz too then got an opportunity to drive corolla cross for a short distance. Nice comfort ride. Now looking forward to test drive CRV when I send my car for service later on. Let me know the feeling when braking once you had a chance to drive it compared to Jazz. I didn't really like it but I need a bigger space and i love CRV, lol.

This CRV good now? What I mean, the feeling when you brake is different compared to Jazz that i drive. It's kind of hard-braking even when you soft-touch the brake pedal during low accelaration. Probably it's just the nature of rear disc brake. This post has been edited by entiti77: Apr 10 2023, 11:47 PM

Well I’ve just have to follow the indicator on when engine oil replacement required for warranty and service schedule.

Is just that 4WD give an extra grip when you go bonkers 😬. I’m driving 2WD variant so far so good. I’ve tried driving fast during heavy downpour and ESC kicks in. 1.5T sufficient power? 190bhp & 243nm…. 😋🥹😅

I have different opinion, I think the CRV brake is better, having 2 pot design compared to jazz The last city I had always activate ABS easily, even on bumpy road with mild braking.

Lets put it this way, i expect a family oriented suv at this price range to have more comfortable brakes.

For me is good cause during high speed sudden slow down I’m able to brake in time. All this is due to the dual,piston brake caliper, more power is used to generate better brakes. If someone have driven more powerful cars, you will know they bite even stronger. I would prefer better biting brakes than slow biting brakes, which is more for low powered/light cars because they do not need that much friction force to slow down.

Since is a turbo engine powered and heavy vehicle, stopping power need to be better. Hence the front brake pad replacement for CR-V cost RM 700 +/- 😅 Some says not comfortable in braking but I felt confidence with the braking it has.

Anyone knows a good aftermarket reverse sensor? I thought 2014 CRV already comes with reverse sensor, even my previous 2010 CRV has it. Are you referring to reverse sensor or camera?
