How much does the 2023 Honda CR-V cost?

Prices have softened 4.12% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 5,961 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of inventory to compare.

Is the 2023 Honda CR-V a good car?

Yes — the 2023 Honda CR-V earns a 4.7/5 user rating and a 7.8/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Form and function and Safety.

Drivers consistently praise its smooth ride, quality interior, and great features, and they also like its safety and economy. The CR-V’s roomy cabin and plenty of cargo space make it especially appealing if you want everyday practicality, while the redesigned cabin and updated infotainment help it feel more current. The main trade-offs are the irritating transmission, uninspired styling, and lack of technological innovation.

With a 39.2% share of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2023 Honda CR-V reliable?

Owners rate it 4.7/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free feel, with drivers highlighting its smooth ride and quality interior over the long haul. The expert review also describes it as a well-executed, refined SUV that should hold up well in everyday use, and Honda’s complimentary maintenance plan for two years or 24,000 miles adds a little ownership peace of mind. Even so, used buyers should still pay close attention to service records and overall condition, especially given the concerns some owners have raised about older-model reliability.

What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Honda CR-V?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually low. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and whether the vehicle’s equipment matches the trim you expect. It also helps to compare the cabin and tech features carefully, since the trim differences are meaningful on this model year.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The EX and EX-L share the same exterior look, but the EX-L adds leather-wrapped seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, a larger touchscreen, a power-adjustable front passenger seat, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a power rear liftgate, and front and rear parking sensors. The EX is the simpler, lower-cost choice, while the EX-L is the better-value pick if you want more comfort and convenience.
• Powertrain: Both trims use a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque, paired with a CVT and available front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The engine has enough punch for a compact SUV, but the transmission can drone under hard acceleration.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is standard and includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a seatbelt reminder system, rear-seat reminder system, driver monitoring system, traffic sign recognition, and Traffic Jam Assist. The lane-centering system can feel uncertain in some highway situations.
• Infotainment: The EX gets a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the EX-L upgrades to a 9-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, wireless charging, and an upgraded eight-speaker sound system.
• Fuel efficiency: The test vehicle returned 29.1 mpg on a mountainous evaluation route, and the EPA said it should get 29 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2023 Honda CR-V trim should I buy?

The 2023 Honda CR-V is offered in 2 trim levels: EX and EX-L.

Here's the short version:

• EX: This is the entry point to the lineup, and it gives you the core CR-V experience with the turbocharged engine, standard Honda Sensing safety tech, a 7-inch touchscreen, and the practical cabin layout. It makes sense if you want the lowest starting point and are comfortable giving up some convenience features.
• EX-L: This is the best-value trim because it adds the larger 9-inch touchscreen, wireless smartphone integration, wireless charging, a power rear liftgate, parking sensors, and a more upscale interior with leather-wrapped touchpoints. If you want the most complete gas-powered CR-V without moving into the hybrid lineup, this is the one to target.

Honda Sensing is standard on both trims, so you do not need to move up the lineup to get the core driver-assistance suite.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Honda CR-V?

This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, so it pays to compare listings carefully and move quickly on strong examples.

• Deal availability: 39.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 5,961 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.12% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 84.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $28,417, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2023 Honda CR-V's resale value?

The current average of $28,417 sits slightly below last year's $29,639.

That softer pricing can help you as a buyer today, but it also suggests the market has adjusted downward from where it was a year ago. If you plan to resell later, the current trend means you should be realistic about future depreciation rather than expecting a quick rebound. The good news is that a well-regarded, practical SUV with broad appeal usually stays easier to move than a niche vehicle.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.7/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2023 Honda CR-V safe?

The 2023 Honda CR-V is a completely redesigned model, so crash testing was still pending at the time of the review.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard and includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a seatbelt reminder system, rear-seat reminder system, driver monitoring, traffic sign recognition, and Traffic Jam Assist. The expert review notes that lane-centering can feel uncertain in some highway situations and can add an artificial feel to the steering.

Should I buy a 2023 Honda CR-V or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2023 if:

• 39.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.12% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.7/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The redesigned model brings updated infotainment and safety features, plus a roomier, more polished cabin.

The bottom line: If you want the redesigned CR-V with updated tech, strong owner satisfaction, and a broad used-car inventory, the 2023 is the right place to start. If you are especially price-sensitive, you may want to compare nearby model years and focus on the best-equipped example you can find at the lowest clean-history price.
