The CR-V is offered in three trim levels. All come with a four-cylinder engine. All are available with a five-speed automatic transmission; a five-speed manual is available on the mid-level model. Honda has long believed that the fewer the options, the less a car costs to build, so options on its small SUV are few.Standard features on all 2005 models include 16-inch wheels, integrated keyless entry, and safety features including front and side-impact air bags, anti-lock braking (ABS) and Vehicle Stability Assist with traction control (electronic stability control). The LX ($19,995) is available with front-wheel drive, but it comes well equipped. Standard equipment includes air conditioning with micron filtration, AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo, cruise control, an adjustable steering column, power mirrors, power windows, power four-wheel disc brakes, front and rear power outlets and a removable folding picnic table. A four-wheel-drive version of the LX is also available ($21,195). Aluminum wheels are available as a dealer-installed accessory. The EX comes only with four-wheel drive, and adds a premium stereo with CD changer, anti-lock brakes, rear privacy glass, aluminum wheels, and a power moonroof. For 2005, 16-inch aluminum wheels, outside temperature gauge, and steering-wheel-mounted audio controls have been added. EX 4WD is available with five-speed manual ($22,450) or automatic ($23,350). The SE ($25,050) is new for 2005, and comes standard with four-wheel drive and the five-speed automatic. On the interior, the SE adds heated leather seats, and leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. Exterior additions include door mirrors, body-colored bumpers, side molding, door handles and spare wheel cover.
