Showcase Honda is inspired to be the commanding supplier for the Honda CR-V in Arizona. Showcase Honda is a Phoenix Honda dealership and carries a vast inventory of New Honda CR-V and top quality, high value used Honda CR-Vs and other cars & trucks.
When shoppers compare the Honda
CR-V to other makes, the 2011 Honda CR-V shines as the most
fun-to-drive. Starting with the 2010
Honda CR-V, owners found this affordable SUV's crisp handling and lively
acceleration to be reason enough to choose.
In 1995, the CR-V was Honda's first in-house designed SUV.
Honda unveiled the CR-V at the 1996 Chicago Auto Show, and it was immediately
well-received as an alternative to Toyota's RAV4. Introduced with a single Trim
Level, the CR-V featured a 2.0 liter engine with 126 horsepower and a double
wishbone suspension. A few years later, the CR-V received an engine makeover
that gave the competent SUV greater power. The second generation of the Honda
CR-V underwent a major face lift with an all-new exterior design, new engine,
and a MacPherson strut front suspension. Honda introduced its customers to
luxury in a compact SUV with features like a leather interior, heated seats, leather-wrapped
steering wheel, and heated side mirrors. Honda's third generation CR-V
possesses a modern, nuanced body style and a laundry list of convenient
technological features and other amenities, making the CR-V perfect for
crawling about urban jungles or navigating rural terrain. Showcase Honda in Phoenix has a wide
assortment of new and used Honda CR-V SUVs with special deals and financing
options available.
Upscale style is paramount
in the Honda CR-V at Showcase Honda, and you'll find it in all four of the Trim
Levels for the 2011 model year. Featured
are the CR-V LX, SE, EX, and EX-L; all four models come in either 2-wheel drive
or Real Time 4-wheel drive. Honda also offers an EX-L with
Navigation, which adds a Voice Activated guidance system.
All of the 2011 Honda CR-V's feature a 2.4 liter i-VTEC DOHC MPFI engine with an alloy block and alloy cylinder heads. An Adaptive Automatic Transmission comes standard with the CR-V, along with the Drive-By-Wire Throttle and Control System, which electronically measures powertrain data and facilitates the proper response for optimum performance. The CR-V at Showcase Honda features an independent MacPherson strut front suspension with coil springs and shock absorbers, while the independent multi-link rear suspension with coil springs and shock absorbers assist in a smooth, comfortable drive.
When it is needed, the CR-V
utilizes the Grade Logic Control System. Grade Logic Control alters the 5-speed
automatic's shift schedule, reducing the frequency of shifts while traveling up
or downhill. Using inputs that monitor throttle position, vehicle speed,
acceleration, and deceleration, Grade Logic compares the operating parameters
with a digital map stored in the transmission's computer. When the system
determines the CR-V is on a hill, the shift schedule is adjusted to
automatically hold the transmission in a lower gear for better climbing power
or increased downhill engine braking. All 2011 Honda CR-Vs at Showcase Honda
come standard with GLC, so stop by today to test drive a brand new
CR-V.
The new 2011 CR-V LX from Showcase Honda comes well equipped with cruise control, keyless entry, AC, powered windows and doors, a lightweight lift-up tailgate with powered locks, and an AM/FM/CD stereo system with four speakers. The CR-V LX features high profile 17-inch steel wheels, cup holders, floor mats, and a console storage area.
The Honda CR-V SE at Showcase Honda adds 17-inch alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, a 160-watt AM/FM/6-disc CD changer audio system with six speakers. Audio controls mounted on the steering wheel make operating the stereo a breeze, allowing you to keep your focus on the road.
Honda's CR-V EX and CR-V EX-L are two
top of the line Trim Levels with great extras. The EX includes
many of the amenities of the SE but also includes a one touch powered moonroof,
vanity mirror lights, a security system for car and stereo, and a dual-deck
cargo shelf. The EX-L at Showcase Honda comes fully equipped with
leather-trimmed seats and armrests, heated front seats, XM Radio, and a USB
Audio Interface. Consider great options like a Honda Satellite-Linked
Navigation System with Voice Recognition and rearview camera, hands-free
Bluetooth, or a seven-speaker audio system that includes a subwoofer. Check out

Honda safety has always been priority number one for any Showcase Honda vehicle.

All new CR-V models also feature Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering (or ACE) body structure, which provides improved occupant protection and crash compatibility between vehicles of different sizes and ride heights in frontal crashes.
Standard Honda safety features included in the CR-V are: traction control, anti-lock brakes, side airbags, driver airbags, side-impact bars, seat-belt pre-tensioners, and passenger airbags. With all of these features, the Honda CR-V is always notably rated by the IIHS and NHTSA.

Especially convenient are the available hands-free phone and navigation systems. Test drive the Honda CR-V in Phoenix at Showcase Honda.
Like all Honda cars & trucks, road handling and performance are top priorities for the CR-V. Passing horsepower in the base CR-V is 148 bhp @ 6200 rpm, and it produces excellent torque - 140 ft lb @ 4200 rpm foot pounds/rpm. The CR-V accelerates promptly from 0 to 60 mph in just 8.5 seconds. If you want to go fast, the CR-V has a top speed of 118 miles per hour. Despite this excellent power train output, the Honda CR-V's fuel economy is rated at 21 miles per gallon in the city and 28 highway miles per gallon*. With a fuel tank capacity of 15.3 gallons, the CR-V cruising range is well above average, truly making it a performance car!
The Honda manufacturer's warranty covers the CR-V for manufacturing defects and has a 3 Years / 36,000 miles Honda warranty. Honda has worked for years to minimize its environmental impact, and the CR-V's carbon footprint is rated very low. Not surprisingly, with all of these CR-V advantages, this great Honda SUV retains a high percentage of its value at 3 years and 36,000 miles, which makes the Honda CR-V a great used buy!
