Though the engine is under powered for vehicle size, it still has enough get up and go to get the job done in the city or on the highway.

This is my second CRV. The first I had in college and this one has seen me get married and have two kids. It has done it all from moving multiple times to bringing my babies home from the hospital. With 4WD, I have never had to worry in the snowy/icy winters of Virginia or the torrential rains I now face in Georgia. It has plenty of space with the back seats down to haul anything you need. I can fit two backward facing car seats in the back and have leg room for me at 5'7", but my husband is a bit cramped at 6'2". Once the car seat is forward facing behind him, there is no problem with leg room. Reliability is key for me and this car comes through every time. No major issues to report.
