Do Honda CR-Vs have good safety ratings?

I’m thinking about trading in my car to buy a crossover, like a Honda CR-V. But I’m a bit worried. My husband and I have a baby now, and safety is my primary focus. Do Honda CR-Vs have good safety ratings?

Yes, they do.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the 2022 CRV an overall rating of five stars (out of five—the highest rating a vehicle can earn). In terms of frontal and side crash tests, the CRV earned five stars. Its rollover rating was a bit lower at four stars, but this is because it’s a crossover and not a car.
Because crossovers typically sit higher than cars, they’re more prone to rollovers, but not to the same extent as some full-sized SUVs and pickups.
Here are just some of the 2022 CR-V’s safety features:
  • Airbags throughout the car, including front side airbags and head airbags
  • 4-wheel ABS disc brakes
  • Electronic stability control (to protect against skidding and rollovers)
  • Lane assist (to warn the driver if they cross the double-yellow line)
  • Child safety locks
As you likely know, crossover vehicles have become popular among families for a number of reasons. They get good gas mileage (for the 2022 CR-V: 28 city/34 highway) and are flexible. For example, with a CR-V, you’ll be able to configure the cargo area in a variety of ways just by folding down the back seat.
It sounds like the 2022 CR-V may be a great alternative to a car for your family.
