3 Answers
19 Honda CR-V minimum ground clearance is 137mm. The following is an introduction to the minimum ground clearance: The minimum ground clearance refers to the distance between the lowest point of the car (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane when the car is fully loaded and stationary. It is used to characterize the car's ability to pass over obstacles such as stones and stumps without collision. Extended content: 1. Appearance. The Honda CR-V has a very domineering and stylish exterior design. The polygonal front grille is designed to be very wide, with a multi-horizontal bar mesh for decoration, giving it a high level of recognition. The Honda CR-V has thickened the chrome around the logo, further enhancing the horizontal design effect of the front face. The fog lights are designed horizontally, paired with L-shaped chrome trim for decoration, making it very exquisite and grand. 2. Power. The 1.5T Earth Dreams engine of the 19 CR-V has a maximum horsepower of 193 and a maximum torque of 243N·m, with a combined fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km as per the MIIT. 3. Body dimensions. The Honda CR-V is 4585mm long, 1855mm wide, 1679mm high, with a wheelbase of 2660mm.
I remember when driving the Honda CR-V 2019, the ground clearance standard was about 198 millimeters, roughly 7.8 inches. As a young person, I often took it out to the countryside for fun. This height is quite stable on rough roads, no worries about scraping the undercarriage, and it handles potholes with ease. However, the higher stance makes it a bit wobbly when turning, so you need to drive slower. I once considered raising it a bit during modifications, but it would require altering the suspension system, which affects the warranty and isn’t worth it. In the city, the visibility is great, and parking is convenient. Overall, this car has good balance and suits adventurous young people. If you’re going off-road, it’s best to install an underbody guard for extra protection, just in case. Honda’s design is quite practical, and the fuel consumption isn’t high—perfect for daily commutes and weekend short trips.
As a family car owner, I really care about the ground clearance of 198mm. It's just the right height for picking up and dropping off kids, making it easy for the elderly. When driving to school, I don't have to worry about scraping over speed bumps, which feels much safer. Last winter when we had heavy snow here, my neighbor's sedan got stuck, but I drove my CR-V slowly and it remained stable. However, the taller body increases wind resistance, so you need to drive steadily on highways to avoid feeling floaty. Additionally, a higher chassis is less prone to slipping on wet roads, but you should regularly check tire pressure because low pressure can reduce the clearance. I recommend that beginners opting for an SUV should consider higher ground clearance for peace of mind.
