2012 Honda CR V in Atlanta
2012 CRV
The 2012 Honda CRV is here and it is BOLD! This is the 4th Generation CRV and it is truly a must see. Its sleek new look is bound to get noticed with the redesigned grille and front bumper along with the 17 inch alloy wheels (EX and EX-L models). These design changes make the CR-V stand out in 2012 more than it ever did before. The exterior is eye catching as much as the interior is sophisticated; the complete package in a compact SUV.
The interior is lavish with some of the most advanced features in the auto industry including the Econ Button ! This environmentally friendly feature can be turned on at any time and it will help increase your MPG by reducing the engine use (and other energy sources) when the vehicle is coasting. Eco Assist will also help the driver understand when they have been driving at the vehicle’s maximum gas saving potential and when they have been driving less efficiently. The CR-V has optimal gas mileage of 23 city/31 highway mpg, outstanding for a compact SUV.
Other interior updates include the rear-view camera, Pandora Radio, Blue-tooth, voice text messaging, and USB audio interface. The steering wheel is fully equipped to control the Multi-Information Display (i-MID) located in the middle of the dashboard. The i-MID has a custom background imag (option) that you can load from your USB, while displaying either music you are playing, SMS Texts, your current MPG and your turn by turn directions as you drive. The steering wheel can control the radio, phone calls, and your navigation system making it easier and much safer to multitask while you drive! Not only does the new CR-V feature state of the art technolgical advancements like the satellite linked navigation system with voice recognition. It also has an improved cargo area with 60/40 rear seat fold back.
The seats have multiple configurations, so the space can be customized for moving, shopping, packing, and so much more. The most common feedback from moms who are on the go is that the new CR-V has the easiest seats to fold down! You do not have to remove the head rest, you do not have to push the seat down, lift the seat back (while you strain your back), or even put your purse down to fold these seats. The women simply love this easy to use feature. Just pull one lever in the rear cargo area and the seat folds into itself. Another note that the CRV’s women drivers commonly made was the fact that the center console in the front of the vehicle is large enough for their purse! So they wouldn’t have to hand it to their husband while they drive, or put it behind the seat. Enough space for a purse sounds like no big deal but these small details make a world of difference.
Consumer Reports states that the CR-V is far above average in its safety ratings. No matter what road you’re on in the city, country, mountains, snow, or beaches; safety should always be a top priority in any vehicle you drive. Rating well for crash tests and beyond well for highway safety, this model is at the top in it’s class. Safely drive a vehicle that offers gas saving abilities, technological advancements, and POWER.
All three models, LX, EX, and EX-L have 2.4L - 4 cylinder engines with 16-Valve DOHC i-VTEC® . Each model can be equipped with AWD or 2WD. The power of the 4 cylinder engine shouldn’t be underestimated, this engine has been perfected through years of engineering and it complimets Honda’s light weight CR-V ideally.
It’s hard to ignore this vehicle’s pizzazz, its comfortable straight forward interior design with easy to use features exactly where they should be. The newly designed exterior catches attention everywhere it goes . The CR-V defines more than just a car, it represents the modern era of practicality, utility, technology, and aesthetic design.
