The new 2004 2005 Honda
CR-V's come in three model trims, including 2wd and 4wd. The new CR V has a
60/40 split fold-down rear seat which means you don't have to compromise rear
passenger comfort when carrying a passenger and extra long cargo. This creates
a greater cargo capacity, both rear seats can be folded forward for hauling
larger items. The new Honda CR-V comes with a Real Time 4 Wheel Drive system.
When the traction of all four wheels are needed, such as on slippery roads, the
system automatically engages the wheels for maximum tire grip. Real Time
4-Wheel Drive is a hydraulically actuated system that operates only when
front-wheel slippage occurs.
Also unique with the new
2004 2005 Honda CR-V is the Grade Logic Control automatically downshifts or
upshifts when driving down or up a hill. It differs from other
computer-controlled shift programming because it determines actual driving
situations based on six different stored "shift maps," and based on that data,
selects appropriate shift points.
The new CR-V for 2004
2005 has a reduce engine idle vibration, a fluid-filled engine mount is used at
the engine's inertial-axis mounting point making this new Honda very quiet on
the road.
For added security on the
new Honda CR-V is the coded key, if the code agrees with the code in the
Powertrain Control Module, or PCM, the PCM lets the driver start the engine.
The new 2004 2005 Honda
CR-V and next year's 2004 2005 models come with added safety features which
include; the side airbag which inflate to help protect the driver or front
passenger's upper body. Honda took this safety technology a step further than
its competitors with its Occupant Position Detection System, if a child or
small-statured adult is leaning into the deployment path of the side airbag the
new sensors deactivate it.
