What is the load capacity of the CRV?
2 Answers
CRV vehicle weight when fully loaded is 2100KG, and when unloaded is 1475KG. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Drive system: The CR-V features a dual-pump real-time four-wheel drive system. Under normal conditions, it operates in front-wheel drive. When encountering adverse road conditions such as rain, snow, or sand that cause the front drive wheels to slip, the hydraulic system promptly distributes torque to the rear wheels to engage four-wheel drive until road conditions return to normal. 2. Engine: The CRV is equipped with two i-VTEC engines, a 2.0L and a 2.4L. The 2.0L engine delivers a maximum power of 114kW and a maximum torque of 190N·m. The 2.4L engine produces a maximum power of 140kW and a maximum torque of 222N·m.
When it comes to the payload capacity of the Honda CR-V, I can share my experience. As a frequent driver of this SUV, the maximum payload typically ranges between 450 kg to 500 kg, depending on the specific year and model—for instance, the latest version might approach 490 kg. This includes all passengers, luggage, and miscellaneous items in the vehicle. During family trips, I've calculated that with four adults (averaging 70 kg each) and the trunk fully packed with camping gear, plus some additional boxes, we're already close to the limit. However, it's crucial not to overload significantly, as excessive weight increases tire pressure, accelerates suspension wear, and spikes fuel consumption. I recommend consulting the owner's manual for precise figures and using a scale when loading items—safety first. Although the space is generous, overloading compromises stability and makes turns more hazardous. Regularly checking tire pressure also helps prevent accidents.
