2026 Honda CR-V vs 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid
Serving Chattanooga, TN
For SUV shoppers in the Chattanooga area, the 2026 Honda CR-V and the 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid stand out as two of the most versatile options. Both deliver Honda's signature style, advanced safety, and innovative technology, but their differences in performance and features may help you decide which model is the right fit for your lifestyle. At Economy Honda, we're here to break it down.
Performance
The 2026 Honda CR-V is offered in three trims: LX, EX, and EX-L. Each comes with a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder gas engine producing 190 horsepower, paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, with available all-wheel drive for added traction during Tennessee's changing seasons.
The 2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid is available in four trims: Sport Hybrid, TrailSport Hybrid, Sport-L Hybrid, and Sport Touring Hybrid. It pairs a non-turbo four-cylinder engine with an electric motor, delivering 204 horsepower while also boosting fuel economy. Like the gas-powered version, it uses a CVT transmission and offers both FWD and AWD configurations. Drivers around Chattanooga Honda dealerships will appreciate the Hybrid's balance of efficiency and capability.
Appearance
At first glance, the Honda CR-V Chattanooga lineup looks unified, as both gas and hybrid models share the same sleek design. However, the CR-V Hybrid adds distinctive accents, including pinstripe detailing across the hood and sides, deeper lower body sculpting, and optional sporty trim elements.
The standard CR-V is available with features like a power liftgate, heated side mirrors, and up to 18-inch wheels. Meanwhile, the CR-V Hybrid offers available upgrades like roof rails, sporty exterior accents, hands-free liftgate technology, and larger 19-inch wheels. Whether driving through downtown Chattanooga or heading out to the Smoky Mountains, both SUVs make a strong impression.
Features
Both SUVs are generously equipped with advanced technology, comfort, and safety. The CR-V includes a 9-inch central touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, wireless phone charging, dual rear USB ports, and an eight-speaker audio system. Additional highlights include heated front seats, leather upholstery, a blind-spot warning system, parking sensors, a digital instrument cluster, and Honda Sensing® safety technology with forward collision detection and avoidance.
The CR-V Hybrid builds on these features, adding options such as a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, Google-based infotainment services, and an upgraded premium audio system. These enhancements make the Chattanooga Honda Hybrid SUV lineup especially appealing for those who want eco-conscious performance without sacrificing luxury.
