Buying a new Honda CR-V - which engine is best?
I'm looking to upgrade my 2009 petrol Nissan Qashqai+2 to a Honda CR-V. Which CR-V engine is the best, considering I do around 15,000 miles a year for work and family outings.

You can probably justify the 1.6iDTEC. I haven't driven one, but there are tests of the original manual and current 1.6iDTEC nine-speed automatic on the site. www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/honda/cr-v-2012/
Our Fuel Cost Calculator shows you which will be the best choice for you.
Compare the running costs of petrol, diesel and electric cars to make the right choice for you.
