2021 Honda CR-V Power

Engine specs are one of the first things you’re going to need to think about when comparing crossovers on towing strength. After all, you need the vehicle to remain responsive at all speeds, even when you’re towing as much as it can handle. That’s why every 2021 Honda CR-V comes fitted with a 1.5L In-Line 4-Cylinder with Turbocharger to deliver:

  • Up to 190 hp @ 5600 rpm
  • Up to 179 lb-ft @ 2000-5000 rpm

The Honda CR-V lets you choose between standard 2WD to focus on efficiency or available Real-Time AWD with an Intelligent Control System™ if you need all-weather, all-terrain traction, but that choice won’t impact how much you can haul.

Regardless of your drivetrain, every 2021 Honda CR-V can tow up to 1,500 lbs. That’s enough for things such as small boats, jet skis, and small teardrop campers.
