Notes and sources

  1. Fuel economy: EPA combined test-cycle figure for the configuration CR-V FWD (43 city, 36 highway). EPA data dated 2026-06-15, the date EPA wrote the workbook in 26data.zip.
  2. CO₂: EPA's tailpipe rating for the car driven as rated on the test cycle — 223 g/mi, or 139 g/km.
  3. Fuel cost: EPA's own annual estimate for this car is $1,250, on EPA's assumptions. At this week's price it is $1,490: 13,800 mi a year at the EPA combined figure, priced at $4.319 per gallon — the U.S. Energy Information Administration's weekly U.S. average for regular gasoline, all formulations, on 2026-09-14. Five years at that price: $7,450. Both are estimates; neither is a measured figure.
  4. Power: 145 hp is the combustion engine's rating alone, from EPA test-car data; the basis is confirmed by NHTSA's vPIC engine record. The whole car's output with the electric motor is not published by any free source, so it is not stated.
  5. Crash rating: NHTSA's overall rating for the front-wheel-drive 2026 CR-V — frontal 5, side 5, rollover 4 stars. NHTSA data as of 2026-09-10.
  6. Recall campaigns: NHTSA's count for this variant (CR-V HYBRID HEV), as of 2026-09-10. Each is repaired free of charge by dealers.
  7. Complaints: NHTSA holds 89 for the 2026 CR-V, 11 of which describe a crash, fire, injury or death. The rate per 10,000 built is not computed: not published in this market-year — complaint_rate: no row in this market-year carries it from a source that measures it (0/392).
  8. Kerb weight: not published. No source states a curb weight for this car.
  9. EPA test weight: 4,000 lb (1,814 kg) is the equivalent test weight class EPA tested this configuration at, not the kerb weight.
  10. Warranty: not carried. The warranty table compiled from each maker's published statement has no verified entry for Honda for 2026 in this market.
  11. Registrations: 16,476 CR-Vs of this model year on New York's roads, from the NY DMV registration file as of 2026-09-02.
  12. This car is measured on the petrol scale: miles per gallon, the tailpipe CO₂ rating and engine horsepower. MPGe and charge-weighted CO₂ are electric-scale quantities and do not apply to it.
  13. Price: no free, resellable source publishes a price for any 2026 car sold in the United States, so none is shown for any car in this market.
