How much does the 2017 Honda CR-V cost?

Prices have softened 2.21% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 4,318 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for shoppers comparing prices and trims.

Is the 2017 Honda CR-V a good car?

Yes — the 4.65/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction, and the expert rating is 8.67/10. The standout strength is Safety at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise the excellent fuel economy, spacious interior, and strong mix of features for the price. The overview also points to the safety features and reliability associated with Honda, which makes this a compelling choice if you want a compact crossover that feels thoughtfully executed for families or individual use. The market also shows 33.5% of listings as good or great deals, which gives you room to shop selectively.

Is the 2017 Honda CR-V reliable?

Owners rate it 4.65/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The owner summary also emphasizes reliability, and the expert commentary reinforces that the CR-V is built around a long history of dependable, cost-effective transportation. The performance write-up adds that the powertrain is satisfying overall, which supports the sense that this is a vehicle you can count on day to day.

The cost-effectiveness commentary also notes Honda’s reputation for affordable ownership and holding value well over time. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about core durability and more about making sure any specific example has been maintained well and doesn’t have unresolved trim-specific issues.

What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Honda CR-V?

At 61.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle-history report and then prioritize a careful inspection of body panels, paint consistency, and signs of prior repair. It also makes sense to focus on cabin condition and electronics, since the owner feedback mentions a few technical issues on certain trims. If you’re comparing multiple listings, put the cleanest history and best-documented maintenance record at the top of your list.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base LX is the most stripped-down version, while higher trims add more comfort and convenience equipment. The EX, EX-L, and Touring are the better-equipped choices if you want a more premium-feeling cabin and more standard technology.
• Powertrain: The base model uses a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine, while the other trims use a turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder. The turbo engine is described as delivering power at lower revs and across a broader part of the rev range, while also improving fuel economy.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is the named driver-assistance suite, and it includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, and Road Departure Mitigation. It is standard on all trims except the base LX, and the Driver Attention Monitor is included on EX, EX-L, and Touring.
• Infotainment: The system uses a 7-inch touchscreen and includes Bluetooth calling and music streaming, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, text-messaging support, and HondaLink features. Higher equipment levels add embedded navigation and a premium sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: The expert data says the turbocharged engine provides better fuel economy, and the test loop returned 26.1 miles per gallon. The EPA figure cited for AWD is 29 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2017 Honda CR-V trim should I buy?

The 2017 Honda CR-V is offered in 4 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Touring.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, but it misses the standard Honda Sensing suite and the more advanced infotainment setup found on higher trims. It makes sense only if your priority is the lowest purchase price and you’re comfortable with a simpler feature set.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the stronger turbocharged engine, the HondaLink touchscreen system, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Honda Sensing. If you want the best balance of price and equipment, this is the one to target.
• EX-L: This trim builds on the EX with a more upscale feel and adds the Driver Attention Monitor. It suits you if you want more comfort and a little more safety tech without jumping all the way to the top trim.
• Touring: This is the most fully equipped version, with the most premium presentation and available upgrades such as embedded navigation and the premium audio system. It’s the right pick if you want the most features and don’t mind paying for them.

Honda Sensing is standard on all trims except the base LX, so that trim-level gap is worth keeping in mind.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Honda CR-V?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 4,318 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.21% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 61.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $16,853, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2017 Honda CR-V's resale value?

The current average of $17,600 sits slightly below last year's $17,998.

That decline suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now if you plan to keep the vehicle for a while. For a future seller, the softer pricing trend means resale upside may be more modest in the near term, but the CR-V still benefits from strong demand and broad shopper appeal. Its owner satisfaction rating also supports continued interest from used buyers.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.65/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2017 Honda CR-V safe?

The 2017 Honda CR-V earns 10/10 safety score from our experts.

It earns a 10/10 safety score from our experts. Honda Sensing is the named driver-assistance suite, and it includes adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, Road Departure Mitigation, blind-spot warning, and a reversing camera with multiple camera angles and rear cross-traffic alert. It is standard on all trims except the base LX, and the Driver Attention Monitor is included on EX, EX-L, and Touring.

The safety write-up also notes that crash-test ratings were not yet available at the time of the review, so the expert score is the clearest safety signal here. For used shoppers, that makes trim selection especially important because the base LX misses some of the most useful driver-assistance equipment.

Should I buy a 2017 Honda CR-V or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2017 if:

• 33.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 61.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.21% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.65/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The expert summary says this redesigned CR-V is a vehicle of substance and unconventional beauty, and that you should buy one.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of owner satisfaction, expert approval, and current market value, the 2017 is the primary year to target. If you’re especially price-sensitive, you can still shop carefully and focus on the best-documented listings, but the 2017 stands out as the more compelling all-around choice.
