Honda CR-V Black Edition & White Edition launch

The Honda CR-V Black Edition (pictured) and White Edition launch

The new Honda CR-V – a sensible type of SUV for car buyers who don’t need a ‘lifestyle’ SUV – has been with us for more than a year, so a limited edition model is called for to keep up footfall in Honda’s showrooms. That means Honda resorting to the tried and trusted route of monochrome specials with the CR-V Black Edition and CR-V White Edition with cosmetic tweaks for a bit more presence and extra kit for a bit more comfort.

Both the Black Edition and White Edition get 19″ Orion alloys, exhaust finisher and privacy glass, a new patterned grill, tailgate spoiler, running boards and skid plates front and back.

Specification is based on the CR-V SE-T so it gets a decent level of stuff including Climate, Bluetooth, parking sensors, power folding mirrors, metallic paint and SatNav.

Honda’s UK boss, Leon Brennan, said:

The CR-V is already a very popular choice thanks to its combination of distinctive and refined styling and excellent versatility. The new Special Edition Black and White enhance the range even further, offering real stand-out appeal and a bold new look. Now the only decision for customers is which colour most turns their head!

Both the CR-V Black and White Editions can be had with either the 2.0 litre i-VTEC petrol or 2.2 litre i-DTEC diesel with manual or automatic gearbox with prices starting from £28,400 for the 2.0 i-VTEC with manual box.
