The 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring Edition was tested for its all-wheel-drive capabilities against the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid. While the CR-V excels on-road with good economy, performance, and a comfortable, spacious interior, its off-road performance on challenging trails was disappointing. The reviewer found the CR-V struggled significantly in off-road scenarios, particularly with its brake vectoring system and limited ground clearance, placing it third behind the RAV4 and Santa Fe in trail capability. Despite its on-road strengths, the CR-V's off-road shortcomings were a notable drawback, especially when compared to its rivals. Future iterations, like the announced 2026 Trail Sport model, are expected to address these limitations.
