I only drove a CR-V Hybrid for 15 mins but I really liked it when I had it. The previous gen made me die a little every time I heard that CVT go to work but the new one was quieter than my RDX and felt peppy enough around town. It's not a fancy car by any means but I liked the interior for what it was - nobody does practicality as well as Honda.

starred build is the trim I think is the volume seller

43-48*-51: Ford Escape which uses Toyota Hybrid system
46: Ford Escape PHEV (supplier ??)
48-52*-58: Outlander PHEV
48-51: CR-V Hybrid
58: Lincoln Corsair PHEV
63-76*-90: XC60 T8
65: X3 30e PHEV
80: Audi Q5e
I'm in the market now for something like this plus the Crown Signia and some of the pricing is wild to me - Volvo dealers are mostly stocking the top of the line XC60 which, after taxes, is over $100k.

It was just 4 years ago that I paid $56k all in for my RDX and now that won't even get me a CR-V Hybrid.
