The new Honda CR-V Hybrid is a great car leasing vehicle with various blue-ringed ‘H’ badges dotted around to highlight this is an electrified SUV.
The entry-level models costs £30,180 – which makes the potential of a contract hire deal more attractive.
The cabin has been restyled with a silver finish to various parts on the car’s centre console and dashboard.
All trims feature new 18-inch alloy wheels, and the SE model gets privacy glass.
CR-V Hybrid EX grade delivers more equipment

Also, the hybrid powertrain retains the petrol engine and two electric motors.

For those who are interested in the stylish SUV as a company car, the hybrid will return WLTP fuel economy of 43mpg – that’s for the two-wheel drive versions with the all-wheel drive CR-V returning slightly less.
Emissions for the hybrid are 151g/km.
Handling has been improved
