HONDA CR-V (1997-2002)本田铬钒(1997-2002)
There?s a healthy dose of pragmatism about the Honda CR-V.?收盘健康剂量的实用主义本田铬钒. Honda President Nobuhiko Kawamoto observed that many four-wheel drive vehicles were laden down with off road paraphernalia that most owners never bothered to exploit.总统指出,许多nobuhiko河本本田四轮驱动车越野载货打倒工具,大多数车主没有真正得手. Knowing that most 4x4 drivers just appreciated an elevated driving position and chunky good looks, Honda developed the CR-V and launched it to an initially bemused British public in 1997.明知驾驶四轮驱动最公正立场表示赞赏和高架驾驶块状好看,本田公司研制的铬钒推出了它最初蛊惑英国公众97. Although it is equipped with a proper four wheel drive system, the CR-V sets out to be as car-like as possible to drive and packs in the sort of practical ideas and sheer common sense that was previously the preserve of MPV drivers.虽然这是一个适当配备四轮驱动系统、铬钒列出可作为汽车驾驶、尽可能像那种包在实际的思路和十足的常识,以前保存的巡逻艇司机. The key word here is ?lifestyle?.这里的关键词是?生活方式?. The CR-V was designed to appeal to those who need a car with the space to accommodate their leisure activities without the geriatric image of an MPV or estate.铬钒旨在吸引那些需要一辆休闲活动的空间容纳它们没有一个老人的形象巡逻艇或遗产. In a swelling market sector, it seems to have scored a direct hit in this respect.在一个膨胀的市场部门,似乎已在这方面取得了直接命中.
HISTORY历史
The CR-V was launched in June 1997 at a time when the ?lifestyle 4x4?铬钒于1997年6月发射的时候吗?4-4生活方式? sector comprised the Toyota RAV4, Suzuki Vitara, Ford Maverick and Vauxhall Frontera.丰田rav4部门组成的铃木vitara,福特和狂暴野牛边疆. Since such cars were destined to spend at least 95% of their lives on tarmac, success in this sector was more reliant on looks and image than any rock hopping ability.由于这种车是注定要花费至少95%生活在停机坪,这个部门的成功更依赖于形象看上去比任何石头跳跃能力. Originally launched in two guises, the LS and ES automatics, five speed manual gearboxes became available on the cars in October 1997.原先推出两种身份,而权证的LS自动、5速变速箱成为手册可在1997年10月车.
Somewhat confusingly, an SE model was introduced in November 1997 only to be withdrawn three months later.有点含糊,硒模式仅在1997年11月开始实施,三个月后撤回. An ES Executive model was subsequently launched in 1999 to top the CR-V range.其后权证的执行模式在1999年推出第一期铬钒射程. A special edition Camel model was introduced in mid-2000 at the same time as the first British-built CRVs were rolling off the Swindon production lines.专辑一推出骆驼模型在2000年年中,在同一时间,英国首建信用凭单落辰被轧生产线. The second generation CRV was launched in Spring 2002.差饷物业估价署推出第二代2002年春季.
WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The appeal of the CR-V was its versatility, not so much as an axle-deep mud plugger, more in its ability to iron out the occasional gravel track whilst offering car-like amenity on the road.上诉的铬钒是其多姿多彩,与其说作为轴深泥宣传员、更有能力解决其暂砂石车的有轨式宜人的道路. To cater for these diverse needs, the CR-V is equipped with a correspondingly wide range of equipment.为了应付这些不同的需求,铬钒配备了相应的各种设备. All models are fitted with standard air conditioning, power steering, removable picnic table, an accessory socket in the boot and a stereo RDS radio cassette unit.所有型号标准配备空调、动力转向、移动野餐桌上从犯插座在车尾箱铁路、立体声广播录音机股. Electric windows, sunroof and mirrors are also standard across the range, as is an immobiliser and a split rear tailgate.电动窗、天窗、镜子也全程标准,是一个分裂、帕萨特后方栏板.
Being mechanically similar the three CR-V models dealt with here, the LS, ES and ES Executive, differ only in levels of equipment fitted.三是照抄类似铬钒这里处理模式,物流、权证、权证长官在不同层次的设备安装只有. The ES distinguished itself from the base LS by the fitment of alloy wheels, body colour bumpers and mirrors, and hard spare wheel carrier.展览从基地的LS出尽风头的车头合金轮子,车身颜色保险杠、镜、承运人备用车轮和硬. Roof rails were also standard, as was a micro antenna for the upgraded stereo system.屋顶栏杆也标准,作为一个微型天线的立体声系统升级.
The ES Executive justified its extra expense with the addition of a 6 disc CD auto-changer and leather upholstery.贸发常务理它添加额外的费用为6盘光盘自动兑换和皮革座垫.
WHAT YOU PAY 您付出
The CR-V has held its value well in comparison with class rivals, due in part to a perceived image of mechanical excellence and a reasonable retail price from new.铬钒举行其价值也是一流的对手相比,部分由于有卓越的机械和形象,从一个新的零售价格合理. An LS with around 63,000 miles showing on a 97 R plate will still be worth £4,700 of the £15,975 it cost new, whilst a decent 99 S plate example will command £5,500.一个约63英里的LS显示板将在1997年仍是值得研究的47000英镑15975英镑的代价是新的,而1999年收盘象样板块来说将指挥5500英镑.
Start the offers for an ES model at £5,000 for a 97 R plate car, rising to £8,000 for a 2001 X plate example.开始提供了示范展览为期97年的研究,在5000英镑板车上英镑上升到2001年的8000十大板块例子. Automatic gearbox options generally merit a £400 premium and by far the most popular colour available was the Sparkle Yellow metallic.一般选择自动变速箱值得一400英镑保险费为止最受欢迎的颜色可用黄色金属火花. In the light of their modest 2.0 power, insurance is a reasonable Group 9 for the LS and Group 10 for all other variants.根据自己微薄的力量2.0、保险是个合理的组九组10镑和所有其他的变数.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
If the rest of the Honda range is anything to judge by, expect the CR-V to be extremely reliable.如果剩下的由本田幅度有所判断,预计铬五十分可靠. Check the service book for main dealer service stamps and the CR-V should be a sound buy.检查服务为主要交易服务邮票册和铬钒应当健全买. One note of caution, however.一个值得注意的问题,可是. Despite its rugged appearance and four-wheel drive underpinnings, the CR-V is not geared up for serious off road work.尽管它的外观凹凸不平、四轮驱动依据,铬钒并不严重越野加紧工作. The front and rear overhangs are sufficiently long to ground out if the going gets rough, and the exhaust box is mounted low, so it may be worthwhile to have a good look at the underside to try to ascertain whether the car in question is sporting any unwanted battle scars.前后悬置够久了,如果境况不佳为理由,并安装排气箱低所以不妨都看清楚然后根据设法确定任何汽车问题是无用的战斗运动创伤.
REPLACEMENT PARTS 替换零件
(approx based on a CR-V LS) If you take your CR-V into the grit and end up with a stone flicked through the front headlamp, prepare to fork out £105.(大约基于铬五镑)如果你是铬钒入沙砾和石头落得门前挥动通过前照灯,准备花上105英镑. A radiator retails for £129 whilst an alternator is £295 and a replacement starter motor will require £203 to obtain.暖气供零售129英镑和295英镑虽然是一个发电机起动电机需更换203英镑索取. Front brake pads are £50 for a pair and a replacement, whilst an exhaust system costs £324.前刹车皮是50元一对英镑和置换,虽然有排气系统造价324英镑. A replacement catalyst is £390.更换催化剂390英镑.
ON THE ROAD 在路上
With its 2.0 litre engine fitted with Honda?s VTEC valve technology, the CR-V is reasonably brisk, and reverts to normal front wheel drive operation in normal use, automatically switching to four wheel drive when the going demands it.它配备2.0公升本田发动机?收盘总量的阀门技术,铬钒颇为活跃,前轮驱动、回归正常运作正常使用,自动切换到四轮驱动时会要求. Specify the car to the hilt with optional showers, fridges and so on, and the edge is taken off the performance, but the CR-V feels lively, if slightly unhappy, when asked to change direction quickly.订车的价钱与择淋浴,冰箱等等,起飞和表现力,但铬钒感觉活泼,如果稍有不满,当被问及对迅速改变航向.
Honda?s stylists have managed to make what is essentially a rebodied Civic look much larger than it is, and the CR-V shrinks around the driver, leaving only the lofty driving position to betray its off road pretensions.本田?设计师们提出的本质上是一项公民rebodied远大于它看,与铬钒萎缩约司机,只剩崇高地位出卖自己驾驶越野造作. With the emphasis on convenience and ingenuity, Honda have dispensed with the awkward differential locks or second gearsticks that adorn many 4x4s, and have instead included shopping bag hooks, waterproof underfloor compartments.与便利,注重创意,本田跳过尴尬微分锁或第二gearsticks匾额,许多四轮驱动车,购物袋,而是包括挂勾,车厢地板防水. Expect to see around 24mpg at the pumps, a small sacrifice for that additional amenity.期望看到周围24mpg在水泵,牺牲小额外宜人.
OVERALL 总体
The Honda CR-V cuts through the macho pretension that surrounds many off road vehicles and attempts to make sense of a market sector which is fundamentally nonsensical.本田铬钒穿越的预紧式越野车和周遭许多试图理解市场部门,根本失去理智. Four-wheel drive vehicles which never venture off road may seem a waste of time, but a drive in the CR-V has the ability to convert many a cynic.四轮驱动车越野似乎永远创业浪费时间,但在驾驶铬钒有能力把许多悲观.
It?s definitely more of a car than an off-roader, and cuts a trendier dash than most.?收盘绝对比汽车更休路由器、削减了比大多数trendier冲刺. If a Land Rover Freelander is too ubiquitous and the Toyota RAV-4 a touch Ibiza for your tastes, a Honda CR-V could be right up your lightly rutted street.如果越野freelander太无所不在,丰田腺-4摸伊维萨为彰显本田铬钒直到你可以轻易rutted街.
