First generation (1997-2001)
The CR-V (Chassis Code RD1-RD3) is the first in-house sports utility vehicle designed by Honda by Hiroyuki Kawase. The CR-V was introduced in Japan at Honda Verno dealership and is considered a luxury vehicle in Japan because the dimensions of the exterior width exceed the Japanese Government's dimensions.

The outer dimensions for this engine will be identical to the Integra 1.8 L engine, but internally the engine has 84 mm (3.3 inches) holes to add the extra displacement required to generate more torque. The machine utilizes a unique one-piece cylinder sleeve construction from other B-series engines. The chassis is a unibody design with a double wishbone suspension of four wheels. Inside, the rear seats can be folded down, and picnic tables are stored in the back floor area. All models feature plastic cladding that includes front bumper, rear bumper, and fender wells. In most countries, CR-Vs have chrome grille; However, in the United States, the grille is made of the same black plastic as the bumper. EX including anti-lock brakes and 15-inch alloy wheels on top of LX trim. The drivetrain option is a front-wheel drive or Honda Real Time AWD.

Fuel economy of 23 mpg -US (10Ã, L/100Ã, km; 28 mpg -imp ) city/28 mpg -US ( And the price is not affected by the increase in power, which is the result of higher compression ratios (9.6: 1, compared with B8B 8.8: 1), new intake manifold, and slightly higher elevation on the intake valve.
Security
The 1997-2001 model tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) is an LX model with standard drivers and passenger airbags. Although the structure of the car received an acceptable rating, the overall car received a marginal rating because the dummy's left leg would be broken. In addition to this lower body injury, dummy heads remove airbags that may cause mild concussions. It was well protected.
