When you have a vehicle that performs at the top of the market for you it can be difficult to decide when to make changes to it. While most of us love the vehicle that’s already in place, you don’t want to give other automakers the chance to surpass you with features or value by bringing something new that takes over your place in the market. Thankfully, Honda hasn’t had to face that with the most popular SUV on the market and they know when and how to make the changes to the CR-V that are necessary to keep it ahead of the pack for us to admire and enjoy.

Somehow the space inside this SUV looks and feels much larger than you would expect from the outside of the vehicle. This SUV offers you nearly forty cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats and if you need to fold these seats down to have added cargo room you’re presented with a cave that’s the size of 76 cubic feet for you to fill. The rear legroom is impressive as well at 40.4 inches to make this a comfortable spot for tall passengers to ride and enjoy the road ahead.
