Here's the Top Gear PH article on this: Honda offers first peek at new CR-V Concept - News | TopGear.com.ph
Personally, I don't like it. The way the rear looks doesn't seem appropriate with how the front is set up. Looks kinda awkward compared to how the Sportage and Tucson were designed.
Let's compare:

The front-end definitely looks like a sportage, while the rear, looks no other than a Volvo XC60.
Honda fail.
for it to sell more in our land and elsewhere, Honda has to bring the once Europe only i-DTEC (Common Rail Turbo diesel) with A/T. and has to Bump up the Horsepower to match or exceed the Hyundai/Kia's..... but i doubt that will happen. hehe.
dati hanga ako sa Honda diesel's, it broke the World Record back in 2004 used in Honda Accord guise for the Worlds fastest 24hr. laps in Germany..... they averaged for over 200++ km/hr and the car only had 140bhp then (almost same as output of my Caren's)...
and that better come with optional 3rd. row bench (kahit bihira gamitin, hehe)...
Gen 3 + Sportage R + XC60
Yung fogs parang Benz B class nga, pero pag inalis yung chrome bar, parang Kia Sorento naman.
