Honda CR-V Model Year Comparisons

isabellelester

Hi everybody,

I am trying to compare 2005 CRVs with 2006 CRVs before I buy. I would appreciate it if someone could help me decide which year might be better overall.

I have been following prices on the google honda search engine, and I have seen one or two 2006 CRVs priced somewhat cheaper than the prices I was getting with the Edmunds' appraiser, and I was not sure why.

I greatly appreciate your help.

Cheers

The 2005 and 2006 are identical. The 2002-2004 are similar to the 2005-2006, but don't have drive by wire, nor VSC, have smaller brakes, and older AWD unit.

The 2006 has 5 years/60,000 mile powertrain wrranty, while the 2005 does not. they both have 3 year/36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty.

2005 and 2006 are the only years that came out with SE package (leather, automatic only, heated seats) in this iteration.

The engines are all the same from 2002 through 2008.
