What transmission does the 2013 Honda CR-V have?
2 Answers
2013 Honda CR-V is equipped with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The function of the transmission is to change the transmission ratio, expand the range of torque and speed changes of the driving wheels, adapt to frequently changing driving conditions, and allow the engine to operate under favorable working conditions. The 2013 Honda CR-V is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4550mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1685mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2620mm and a curb weight of 1641kg. The front suspension of the 2013 Honda CR-V is a MacPherson independent suspension, the rear suspension is a double-wishbone independent suspension, and the drivetrain is front-engine four-wheel drive.
I've driven many Honda vehicles, including the 2013 CR-V SUV model. That car was equipped with a 5-speed automatic transmission, which delivered smooth and seamless driving, even in congested city traffic without noticeable jerking. Honda put considerable effort into this transmission, designing it to be simple yet practical, capable of handling long-distance driving or cargo hauling. However, it did have some minor issues, such as some owners reporting slightly delayed shifts during cold starts or higher fuel consumption when climbing hills. Overall, the transmission's reliability was good, and with proper maintenance, it could last over 100,000 kilometers. I remember Honda hadn't widely adopted CVTs back then, so the older automatic transmissions were still quite mainstream. If buying a used car, be sure to check the maintenance records, especially whether the transmission fluid has been changed, otherwise repairs could become a headache.
