Honda CR-V

The Honda CR-V has been around for well over 20 years, so there should be something for every budget in its range. That longevity also means Honda has honed its offering, and it’s one of the best family SUVs in its class. Available as a roomy five-seater or even roomier seven-seater, the CR-V is a great choice for families. Engine-wise, there’s the option of an impressive hybrid powertrain that accelerates from 0-60 mph in around 9 seconds, while still delivering just over 50 mpg. There’s a petrol-only choice and (pre-2018) a more-economical diesel, too. Safety-wise, it was rated five stars by Euro NCAP in 2013 and 2019.
