2016 Honda CR-V [CVT]

**StockEngine** · September 28th, 2014 09:55 PM

Next year we might be getting the fuel efficient CR-V with CVT. The US market will get the 2.4 CVT next week.

My list of Most Fuel efficient CUV in 2015 in the Philippine

1. CR-V 2.0 CVT
2. Xtrail 2.0 CVT
3. ASX 2.0 CVT
4. CX-5 2.0 6AT
5. Forester 2.0 CVT

You can't say for sure that just because these CUVs have CVTs, they will have better mileage than a conventional AT.

I've used a CR-V 2.0 6AT extensively and at best it does 8 km/L in moderate traffic. In similar scenarios the CX-9 does 9 km/L. I doubt that adding a CVT will improve the CR-V's efficiency by 12.5%.

lets try honda's 5AT to CVT for honda Fit in the USA.

example:

2013 honda fit 1.5 5AT Combined FC = 31mpg
2015 honda fit 1.5 CVT combined FC = 35/36mpg

simple division using worst case scenario 35/31 = 1.129 , 12.9%

That also included a model change, and additional tuning to the engine even if it's the same L15.

lets do this again....

2014 honda cr-v 2.4 5at City fuel consumption : 23mpg
2015/2016 honda cr-v 2.4 CVT City fuel consumption: 26mpg

computation: 13%

Where did you get a CRV 6AT? The current one is only 5AT.

Oops, I meant the 5AT for the current gen. Onga pala, Honda didn't have a 6AT locally until the new Accord.

Anyway, we'll see how much of an improvement that CVT gives in local conditions. I've never seen US EPA figures to be applicable to our settings where traffic is much much worse.
