Honda CR-V 2008 review : Model 2WD EX-L
2WD EX-L
The top-of-the-line CR-V EX-L is the ultimate indulgence. It pampers you with luxurious features such as a driver’s seat with 8-way power adjustment, dual-zone automatic climate control, interior leather trim, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, heated seats and heated power side mirrors—features that are far beyond what is expected for its class. It also boasts a 270-watt AM/FM/6-disc in-dash audio system with 7 speakers including subwoofer (on vehicles without the navigation system). The EX-L is also available with Real Time 4-wheel drive.™
