Overview
The Honda CR-V is Honda’s C-segment SUV for buyers who prioritise cabin space and day-to-day usability in a five-seat package. This RY generation arrived in 2023, with petrol and petrol-hybrid powertrains, front- or all-wheel drive depending on variant, and prices starting from RM178,200.
CR-V in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the CR-V e:HEV E and e:HEV RS gain built-in Google, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).

The two hybrids use a 1,993 cc petrol-hybrid system with 327 hp and front-wheel drive, while the V uses a 187 hp 1.5-litre petrol engine and AWD.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the RM178,200 2.0 e:HEV E. It is the least expensive CR-V here, yet gets the 327 hp hybrid powertrain, eCVT and the 2026 additions of built-in Google, BLIS and RCTA. The RM181,900 1.5 V AWD costs RM3,700 more for a 187 hp petrol engine, CVT and all-wheel drive; choose it only if AWD matters more than hybrid power. The RM195,900 e:HEV RS keeps the hybrid mechanical package, so inspect its added trim and equipment before paying the RM17,700 step up.

Honda CR-V buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The CR-V’s strongest case remains practicality: cabin space and usability are central to its appeal, while newer technology broadens the package. The 2026 hybrid update usefully adds built-in Google, BLIS and RCTA. Its pricing is far above entry-level C-segment SUV alternatives such as the RM103,800 Proton eMas 7 and RM106,800 Proton X70, so the Honda must justify the extra spend through its specific hybrid drivetrain, equipment and packaging.
