The 2015 CR-V gets Honda's new 2.4L direct-injected four-cylinder engine that produces the same 185 hp as its predecessor but adds 11 percent more torque to 163 lb.-ft. The engine is now paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with a "G-shift design" that provide smoother ratio changes.
