Honda CR-V trim levels explained for Egg Harbor Township buyers

The Honda CR-V trim list reads like a maze: LX, EX, EX-L, Sport Hybrid, Sport-L, Sport Touring and TrailSport, each with its own price. Under the names, the choice is smaller than it looks.

A CR-V buyer in Egg Harbor Township really decides three things: gas or hybrid, front-wheel or all-wheel drive, and how many comfort features to pay for. At 6807 Tilton Rd, Boardwalk Honda lets you reserve, order or test the exact trim before you commit.

Keep reading below, then schedule a test drive in Egg Harbor Township. Bringing your own numbers to the lot settles this faster than any spec sheet.

Which Honda CR-V trim fits an Egg Harbor Township buyer?

The right CR-V trim depends on three things: gas or hybrid power, front or all-wheel drive, and how many comfort features you want. Boardwalk Honda, at 6807 Tilton Rd in Egg Harbor Township, sells the full CR-V lineup and lets you test drive the trim you are considering.

Honda’s 2026 list has twelve trim and drivetrain combinations, six gas and six hybrid. The lowest starting price is $30,920 for the LX with front-wheel drive, and the highest is $42,550 for the Sport Touring Hybrid with all-wheel drive. Start with the powertrain, then narrow by drivetrain. You can reserve a test drive online or by phone before you decide.

What are the Honda CR-V trim levels, and what does each cost?

The CR-V runs from the LX at $30,920 up through the Sport Touring Hybrid at $42,550, with gas and hybrid versions at each step. Honda’s published starting prices show what each step costs.

On the gas side, the LX starts at $30,920 in front-wheel form and $32,420 with all-wheel drive. The EX starts at $33,150 and $34,650, and the EX-L starts at $35,400 and $36,900. On the hybrid side, the Sport Hybrid starts at $35,630 and $37,130, and the Sport-L Hybrid starts at $38,725 and $40,225. The TrailSport Hybrid starts at $38,800 with all-wheel drive, and the Sport Touring Hybrid starts at $42,550.

The sticker is not the whole bill. New Jersey charges a 6.625% sales tax, according to the New Jersey Division of Taxation (2026), so plan for that on top of the starting price.

What does each CR-V trim add as you move up the ladder?

Within the CR-V range, towing changes with the powertrain, not with the trim level. Honda’s published 2026 specifications give every gas trim a maximum tow rating of 1,500 pounds, and every hybrid trim 1,000 pounds.

That covers the LX, EX and EX-L in both drivetrains. It also covers the Sport Hybrid, Sport-L Hybrid, Sport Touring Hybrid and TrailSport Hybrid. A buyer who tows gets the same rating at the bottom of the gas ladder as at the top, and the same 1,000 pounds at the bottom of the hybrid ladder as at the top. The price rises with each step. The towing rating does not.

Should an Egg Harbor Township buyer choose the CR-V hybrid or the gas engine?

The hybrid costs more up front and returns better fuel economy. Honda’s EPA-certified combined rating for the front-wheel hybrid is 40 mpg, against 30 mpg for the front-wheel gas engine.

The hybrid also makes 204 horsepower, against 190 for the gas engine, according to Honda’s specifications. Commuting is where that fuel economy pays off. Egg Harbor Township commuters have a mean travel time of 23.3 minutes each way, according to the U.S. Census Bureau (2024), which puts a daily round trip near 47 minutes behind the wheel. The South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization (2024) counted 18 of the region’s 100 worst county and local road bottlenecks in Egg Harbor Township. A daily drive with that many bottlenecks is the case for the hybrid.

A buyer who wants the lowest price can look at the gas trims, starting with the LX at $30,920.

Do you need all-wheel drive on a CR-V in South Jersey?

Not always: most CR-V trims come in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive. Both the Sport Touring Hybrid and the TrailSport Hybrid come only with all-wheel drive. If the drivetrain you want is not on our lot, we can help you reserve an in-transit CR-V.

The starting prices show what all-wheel drive costs on each trim. The LX starts at $30,920 in front-wheel form and $32,420 with all-wheel drive. The EX starts at $33,150 and $34,650. The EX-L starts at $35,400 and $36,900. The Sport Hybrid starts at $35,630 and $37,130.

On mileage, Honda’s EPA-certified combined ratings are 30 mpg for the gas front-wheel drive and 29 mpg for the gas all-wheel drive. All-wheel drive trades a little combined mpg for traction, and the price difference is set out trim by trim above.

What do buyers say about shopping for a CR-V at Boardwalk Honda?
