Honda CR-V is domestically produced. Introduction: The Honda CR-V is a classic urban SUV model produced by Dongfeng Honda Automobile Company. The 2015 CR-V features a sporty and stylish design, paired with Michelin Latitude series SUV tires, offering excellent handling performance. Parameters: The wheelbase is 2620mm. The vehicle dimensions are 4550×1820×1685mm. The trunk volume is 862 liters. The fuel consumption is 6.4L/100km. The fuel tank capacity is 53 liters. The standard seating capacity is 5.

I still remember when the CR-V was first introduced in 1995, Honda only produced it domestically in Japan at factories like the one in Saitama Prefecture. Later, to cope with the surge in global demand, they began expanding production locations. For the U.S. market, Honda's plant in Ohio took over production of the North American version from the late 1990s, and now the East Liberty plant in Ohio is the main hub, manufacturing models sold in the U.S. In China, Dongfeng Honda's factory in Wuhan handles the localized production of the CR-V, which has consistently seen strong sales—this localization strategy helps Honda save on tariffs and shipping costs. There’s also some production in Europe and Canada, but mainly for regional markets to avoid the carbon emissions and risks associated with long-distance transportation. This evolution reflects how automakers adapt to globalization, making it easier for consumers to access locally tailored versions and reducing wait times.
