Omg ! Honda is back with those fake wood trims!

Anyone driving 2.0 New CRV? Will 2.0 underpowered?

1.5T abit pricy to maintain since the oil change is more frequent and the 18inches tyre is expensive.

i also thinking to get the 2.0, cheaper save money, and essential exterior look the same

The difference between 2.0 and 1.5T 2WD is the turbo engine, front parking sensor, auto wiper.

So 2.0 is still a good buy just wonder how it perform under real-world situation. I believe it is difficult to find a show room that has 2.0 Test drive car as well.

0-100kmph
2.0 is >11s
1.5T is 8.8s

Huge difference in performance

FC-wise, 1.5T should be slightly better, probably could fetch 14-15km/l on highways VS 12-13km/l for the 2.0L CVT

To add, you can save RM13k just on the price difference if you opt for 2.0L VS 1.5T 2WD

Road tax, 2.0L is more expensive by ~RM300 per year
Tyres, 1.5T is more expensive by RM200-300 per piece due to its 18" rims

With good safety features i think it worth the price.

Just sadly we dont get 4wd for top spec

Yet the safety features still same like tcp except for honda sensing

oh really; then better get the 1.5T cos i always sad cannot leave toll gate fastest,

Hoho.. If u frequently floored your pedal, you will shorten the oil life and visit SC more frequently

go to Global Amity Bangi. I tested it there. 2.0

Earlier I was also in dilemma between 1.5 TC and 2.0 NA but ended up with 1.5 TC as tire maybe every 2 years change so the difference not much if you put aside some money for maintenance every month.

Thank god SC is nearby if every 3 months go SC for oil change. Around RM200+- i was told each oil change.

he said turbo need change oil every 3 months?

nay, just my own estimate based. eventually you will need to follow the maintenance minder. normally 10k will take me around 6 months max based on my 1.8 Civic.

with CRV 1.5tc I expect to be at worst case 3 months or more before needing to change the engine oil

Not really and it depend on usage.
Service internal at every 10k mileage. Turbo engine are recommended to service at 7k to 8k or so.

Hi, you tested the 2.0. What makes you choose 1.5tc? 2.0 under powered?

Must service? SA told me if the indicator prompt the sign A, just need to top up engine oil. If B means need service.

My current car is civic 1.8 as last year I am still skeptical of the 1.5TC engine.

After a year so far did not see any big issue like overheat/broken down due to the 1.5TC engine other than Honda lousy QC which affects most of their model. Always wanted to get the 1.5TC but held back to observe first.

I test drove the 2.0 with the car salesperson only and definitely not able to feel any underpower and the road tested also normal without any long stretch or hilly.

If looking at paper specs, looks not much difference in terms of power other than you dont need to rev the 1.5TC like 2.0NA for torque. If you like to rev then 2.0NA better from my 1.8NA experience.

For A status can top up ownself or need to go SC?

need go to SC

thanks. i better also try the 2.0 and see how it goes. yesterday test drove 1.5tcp, with 5 adults onboard. drive slowly but can feel there is a lot of power readily to be unleashed.
