The 2027 Honda CR-V adds Google built-in with Google Assistant and Gemini on select trims, plus a 204-hp two-motor hybrid system across four hybrid variants. Hybrid trims now return up to 43 city / 36 highway MPG, a significant efficiency gain over the 1.5L turbo base trims at 28/33 MPG. This page covers every trim, spec, and change for 2027, with current CR-V inventory available at Burleson Honda in Burleson, TX.

What's New for 2027

The headline addition for 2027 is Google built-in, which brings Google Assistant, Google Gemini, Google Maps, and Google Play directly into the infotainment system on EX, EX-L, and all hybrid trims. A 3-month unlimited data plan for in-vehicle apps is included. This is a meaningful upgrade over the prior model year, which lacked the native Google integration.

The Sport Touring Hybrid gains a 5-mode drive selector (Individual, Sport, Normal, Econ, Snow), adding the Individual mode on top of the 4-mode setup found on other hybrid trims. The 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and the Bose 12-speaker premium audio system are confirmed for the Sport Touring Hybrid trim for 2027.

Blind Spot Information System (BSI) and Rear Cross Traffic Monitor are now part of the Honda Sensing suite on EX and above, rounding out an already comprehensive safety package across the lineup.

Interior, Comfort & Cargo

2027 Honda CR-V interior comfort and cargo

The CR-V seats five across two rows, with 41.3 inches of front legroom and 41 inches of rear legroom. Shoulder room is 57.9 inches up front and 55.9 inches in back, making rear-seat comfort a real strength for a compact crossover.

The gas trims (LX, EX, EX-L) offer 39.3 cubic feet of cargo behind the second row, expanding to 76.5 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. Hybrid trims come in at 36.3 cubic feet behind the second row (71.8 cu ft maximum), a modest reduction due to the hybrid battery packaging.

The Sport Touring Hybrid is the only trim where second-row cargo is listed at 34.7 cubic feet, reflecting its specific battery configuration.

Heated front seats arrive at the EX trim. Leather-trimmed seating, a 10-way power driver seat with 2-way power lumbar, and dual-zone climate control come standard on EX-L and Sport-L Hybrid and above. The Sport Touring Hybrid adds two-position driver seat memory and 4-way power passenger seat adjustment.

Active Noise Cancellation is standard on EX-L, Sport-L Hybrid, and Sport Touring Hybrid, keeping the cabin noticeably quieter at highway speeds in Burleson, TX traffic and beyond. Acoustic laminate windshield and acoustic front door glass reinforce cabin insulation on upper trims.

Google built-in is standard on EX and above, including all hybrid trims. It provides access to Google Maps with real-time traffic, Google Assistant and Google Gemini for voice commands, and Google Play for streaming apps. A 3-month unlimited in-vehicle data plan is included.

Audio steps up through the trim ladder: the LX has a 160-watt 4-speaker system, the EX uses a 240-watt 6-speaker setup, the EX-L and Sport Hybrid use a 320-watt 8-speaker system, and the Sport Touring Hybrid receives the Bose 12-speaker premium audio system.

Safety & Driver Assistance

2027 Honda CR-V Honda Sensing safety features

Honda Sensing is standard on every 2027 CR-V trim. The suite includes:

  • Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)
  • Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM)
  • Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)
  • Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
  • Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
  • Traffic Sign Recognition System (TSR)

  • Low Speed Braking Control
  • Auto High Beam Headlights

EX and above add Blind Spot Information System (BSI) and Rear Cross Traffic Monitor, plus 4 front and 4 rear parking sensors.

Structural safety comes from Honda's ACE body structure. All trims include driver and passenger i-SRS airbags, knee airbags, front and rear i-side airbags, and side curtain airbags. Vehicle Stability Assist with Brake-Traction Control and ABS are standard throughout.

Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control are standard across the lineup, which is useful for the varied terrain around Burleson and the broader DFW area.

Who It's For / vs the Prior Year

The 2027 CR-V is a direct upgrade for buyers who want Google Maps and Google Assistant built into the screen rather than mirrored from a phone. If that matters, the EX trim is the entry point for that feature.

The hybrid lineup offers a compelling fuel economy argument, with the Sport Hybrid FWD hitting 43 mpg city, which outpaces many competitors in the segment. Buyers who commute through city traffic, whether in Burleson or elsewhere in the Metroplex, will see a tangible difference at the pump compared to the 1.5L turbo trims.

Buyers who prioritize maximum cargo space should note that gas trims hold 39.3 cubic feet behind the rear seats versus 36.3 cubic feet on hybrid trims. For families hauling gear, that 3-cubic-foot difference may factor into the decision.

The TrailSport Hybrid is the pick for buyers who want light off-road capability with all-terrain tires, 8.2 inches of ground clearance, and the HTX app, without leaving hybrid efficiency behind.
