The CR-V is growing up. This latest version shows less activity in the body panels, suggesting a more robust persona. The front end is blunter and shorter, for a more functional off-road look.The tailgate sports a rear window that opens on its own, which is good; but it is side-hinged on the right, which means you have to walk around it when you're loading cargo from the curb.
Still, the overall look is a plus. You know it's a Honda CR-V, but it's somehow beefier, fuller, better proportioned. For lack of a better comparison, it's like a puppy that's filled out as it has grown up.
