Honda CR-V 2021 has a curb weight of 1.5 tons. Weight of different Honda CR-V models: Depending on the configuration, the weight of the CR-V ranges from 1525kg, 1540kg, 1590kg, 1640kg to 1655kg. Specifications of the Honda CR-V 2021 model: Length/Width/Height (mm): 4550-1820-1685; Wheelbase (mm): 2620; Front track (mm): 1565; Rear track (mm): 1565; Minimum ground clearance (mm): 135; Body structure: SUV; Number of doors: 5; Seating capacity: 5.

I drive a 2021 Honda CR-V and feel its curb weight is approximately 3,400 to 3,700 pounds, depending on the configuration. For example, the front-wheel-drive version is lighter, while the all-wheel-drive version is heavier. As a daily commuter, this weight makes it very stable at high speeds and less susceptible to crosswinds, but fuel consumption is slightly higher, averaging around 25 mpg. In city stop-and-go traffic, the car feels a bit heavy, with slower acceleration, but it handles turns flexibly, and the electric power steering makes parking effortless. On weekends, when traveling with the whole family and loading the trunk full of luggage, the weight distribution remains balanced, and the ride comfort is excellent. Compared to other SUVs in its class, the CR-V's weight is moderate—not too heavy—but if you prioritize fuel efficiency or a lighter driving feel, it's something to keep in mind.

As a tech enthusiast, I know the 2021 CR-V weighs from 3,348 lbs (base FWD) to 3,667 lbs (top AWD), primarily due to its steel chassis and 1.5T turbo engine design. This affects performance: 0-60 mph acceleration takes about 7 seconds, feeling slightly sluggish but with a solid chassis; it's a bit heavier than competitors like the Toyota RAV4, resulting in slightly lower fuel economy (e.g., 20 mpg city vs. RAV4's 26 mpg). The weight enhances rigidity, providing strong grip at high speeds and reduced body roll in corners; however, the AWD system adds extra mass, and neglecting tire wear during routine maintenance may cause vibrations. Overall, the design is balanced—lightweighting could improve it, but Honda prioritized safety.

I've been driving for over thirty years. The 2021 CR-V starts at around 3,400 pounds, which is slightly lighter than older models but still substantial. This weight provides good traction on rainy or snowy slippery roads and ensures stability at highway speeds; parking in urban spaces isn't too difficult, and the clear rear visibility helps a lot. Daily driving is comfortable, with even weight distribution reducing bumps; however, fuel consumption on long trips is slightly higher, so tire pressure needs attention. The overall design reflects Honda's consistent durability, with reasonable weight control enhancing driving confidence.
