History of the Second-Generation Honda CR-V (2002–2006)

The second generation of the Honda CR-V debuted in 2002 and carried through 2006. Building on the success of the first-generation model, it retained the compact size while improving interior comfort, safety features, and drivetrain performance. This generation was notable for introducing Honda’s innovative i-VTEC engine and increasing cargo capacity without compromising on maneuverability.

Honda made safety a priority by incorporating front side airbags and ABS as standard on the EX trim, contributing to its strong reputation for family-friendly functionality. The 2005 model year was one of the most refined in this generation, with subtle design updates and enhanced reliability.

Performance and Fuel Efficiency

• Engine: 2.4L 4-cylinder i-VTEC
• Horsepower: 160 hp @ 6,000 rpm
• Torque: 162 lb-ft @ 3,600 rpm
• Transmission: 5-speed automatic
• Towing Capacity: 1,500 lbs
• Fuel Economy: 22 MPG city / 27 MPG highway

The CR-V’s 2.4L engine was praised for its balance of power and efficiency. It featured Honda’s advanced i-VTEC technology, which optimized performance at various RPMs. With a metal timing chain instead of a belt, this engine offered exceptional durability, reducing long-term maintenance costs. The all-wheel-drive system provided added confidence in adverse weather conditions and mild off-road environments.

Why the 2005 CR-V EX AWD Stands Out

1. Iconic Features: This second-generation CR-V is the last to feature the beloved full-size spare tire mounted on the rear hatch, a design hallmark cherished by enthusiasts. It also includes the integrated picnic table beneath the rear cargo floor — a unique and practical addition for camping trips or tailgating.
2. Compact Yet Spacious: While retaining the nimble footprint of the first generation, this CR-V offers increased cargo space and interior versatility, making it ideal for both city driving and road trips.
3. Enthusiast Following: Due to its perfect balance of size, capability, and reliability, the second-gen CR-V developed a cult-like following among Honda enthusiasts. Its reputation as a durable, long-lasting SUV has only grown over time.
4. Exceptional Reliability: The 2.4L i-VTEC engine is known for its robustness and longevity, with the metal timing chain adding to its reputation as a low-maintenance powerhouse.

Key Features and Comfort

• Versatile Interior: 60/40 split-folding rear seats and ample cargo space make it easy to transport everything from groceries to camping gear.
• Comfort and Convenience: The EX trim includes a sunroof, power windows, and remote keyless entry, enhancing driver and passenger comfort.
• Safety: With features like front side airbags, ABS, and AWD, this CR-V provides peace of mind on every journey.
• Practical Design: The picnic table stored under the cargo floor adds a unique and thoughtful touch, perfect for outdoor activities.

This 2005 Honda CR-V EX AWD is a rare find, especially with its impressive service history, no-accident record, and thoughtful features. Finished in Alabaster Silver Metallic  with a black cloth interior, its combination of practicality, reliability, and versatility makes it a standout choice for anyone seeking a dependable and capable SUV. With its cult following and reputation for longevity, this CR-V is ready to provide years of enjoyment for its next owner.
