The 2007 Honda Cr-v

**mbt** · January 15th, 2007 12:00 PM

Relax, if the CR-V goes as high as 1.7 M, it will be for the top-end 10-liter six-wheel drive version. My take is that as a key seller for Honda Philippines, they will have a cheaper version available in the 1.3 to 1.4 M range. Toyota has the Fortuner so the RAV4 can afford to go upmarket... the RAV4 probably needs to anyway for the sake of product differentiation and positioning. But Honda doesn't have any other SUV so it will shoot itself in the foot if it prices too high.

The price is just an assumption.

Give some comments on this 2007 CRV- thank you!

Having seen several already I can say that the front isn't that bad. However, that rear hatch looks like it was hit by someone and now has a dent. From pictures it doesn't look so bad but in person it looks like the hatch has a dent, I see one at work everyday and I keep thinking that someone backed in to the hatch of that CRV.

Don't be concerned with the price. it's gonna be almost the same with the 2nd gen. i have here in Qatar the 2006 model 4wd RVSi priced at 90K rials. honda introduced the 2007 version last november and the basic 2.4L 4wd automatic with bare feature is priced at 86K rials (1.1M pesos). kaya ung 2 liter 2WD will come to around a little less than 1M pesos. ung 1.7M is the top of the line price, complete with everything like sunroof, crusie control, all around air bags, abs, adoptive headlights (new feature from honda), etc.

i was never a big fan of SUV with those looks but i actually like the looks of the 07 CRV.for the exterior...id pick the CRV over the lexus,X3,CX7 and even the murano.i test drove the murano before and didnt liked the interior at all.

Hahaha! I love the way you put it.

For reference, here are the current prices of current models:

2WD
CRV 2-liter (5 pass.) - 999,000 (5MT), 1,050,000 (4AT)
CRV 2-liter (8 pass.) - 1,083,000 (5MT), 1,134,000 (4AT)
RAV4 2.4-liter - 1,425,000 (4AT)

4WD
CRV 2.4-liter (5 pass.) - 1,267,000 (5MT), 1,318,000 (4AT)
RAV4 2.4-liter - 1,785,000 (4AT)

Prices of the upcoming CRV shouldn't be far from current levels. HCPI will commit seppuku (suicide) if it decides to price the CRV like a RAV4.
