The 2017 Honda CR-V is all classed up for a new generation

Packing a new engine, a massively revised exterior and a full complement of hot technology, Honda's crossover-sales king is ready to defend its throne.

Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car fanatic, he started working his way through the echelons of the automotive industry, starting out as social-media director of a small European-focused garage outside of Chicago. From there, he moved to the editorial side, penning several written features in Total 911 Magazine before becoming a full-time auto writer, first for a local Chicago outlet and then for CNET Cars.

The thing you need to know first is that the 2017 CR-V does come with a physical volume knob. Now that we've covered the most important thing, let's talk about the rest of the car.

The exterior is far fancier than before, with thin LED taillights and a countenance inspired by the company's Acura.

The interior is sharper, too, ditching the dual-screen setup from before in favor of a more cohesive, single-screen design.

That single screen measures 7 inches, and it comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard.

Every other trim receives a 190-horsepower, turbo I4, which is a derivation of the Civic's engine.
