Are you a parent looking for a vehicle that can safely haul your precious cargo? How about a commuter looking for a fuel efficient vehicle with the power to get you where you need to go on time? Maybe you’re an adventurer who likes to take road trips and wants room to take a few friends with you. Maybe you’re a well-rounded person who is a combination of all three? Well this agile and comfortable 2008 Honda CR-V can meet all those needs, and more.
Edmunds.com says that the “Honda CR-V is the most refined and practical small SUV Honda has ever built.” Now that’s an impressive reference letter! The 2.4L I4 16V DOHC i-VTEC engine produces 166 hp and 161 pound-feet of torque. We’re all fuel conscious these days, and with the 5-speed automatic transmission combined with that engine, the CR-V delivers an impressive 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg out on the open road. That helps you keep your money in the bank (or the college fund) where it belongs.
If you’re a proud parent with children in the back seat, the CR-V is one of the most family-friendly vehicles you can find. There’s a conversation mirror built in to the overhead sunglasses storage compartment so you can keep an eye on your kids without twisting off your neck. The rear doors open up wide (and say “ahhhhh”) to make it easier to put children in their car seats. The rear overhead liftgate was made lighter than the previous model to make it easier to access the trunk space. And all three rear seating positions have the LATCH system for securing in car seats.
Even if you’re not a parent, you can still appreciate the other conveniences in the CR-V. The high quality interior boasts plush curve-hugging bucket seating and an AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio system with 6 speakers for blasting out your favorite tunes. There’s a rear window defroster for those uber-cold and icy days, power everything, and storage space throughout the cabin. And the rear seats can fold and flip into an upright position, opening up 73 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
Honda has always been known for it’s incredible attention to safety and this CR-V is at the top of its class. The 4-wheel ABS disk brakes with Brake Assist, Electronic Stability Control, Front & rear anti-roll bars, Low tire pressure warning, Speed-sensing steering, and Traction control all work together to help you avoid an accident. In the event that you do have one, the Anti-whiplash front head restraints, Dual front impact airbags, Dual front side impact airbags, and Overhead airbag will be there to protect you.
There’s so many more features on this 2008 Honda CR-V. For further details give Napleton Honda a call at (888) 840-3576. Or just head on over and see it for yourself at 4780 North Service Rd St. Peters MO, 63376.
